All Creatures Welcome sketches a utopian image of society in the digital era. Accompanied by the appeal to “use hacking as a mindset,” the viewers immerse themselves, together with the filmmaker, in a documentary adventure game and explore the world of digital communities at the events held by the Chaos Computer Club; a real-world reflection of the virtual spectrum. All Creatures Welcome is not merely a documentary: it’s a transmedia project, complemented by modular additions that enhance the classic cinematic framework according to the themes it deals with:

  • The CREATE YOUR OWN CULTURE platform
  • The music project THIES MYNTHER’S FAIRY BOT ORCHESTRA – A cultural-political debate on the topic of PUBLIC MONEY = PUBLIC CULTURE The entire venture aims to forge ahead with the discourse on the free availability of culture and knowledge and transpose it into a concrete example – “Sharing something can make more out of it!”.
  • The Artist Talk gives an overview on the whole project, followed by an open discussion about open culture with the initiators Sandra trostel and Thies Mynther.

The entire venture aims to forge ahead with the discourse on the free availability of culture and knowledge and transpose it into a concrete example – “Sharing something can make more out of it!”
