Through the "Cercles de pratiques", DAÏMÔN aims to foster interactions between members of the community, encourage the sharing of experience and expertise and encourage peer learning.

By offering participating members periods of meetings and exchanges, as well as workspaces, DAÏMÔN encourages mentoring, experimentation and the dynamic development of artistic practices in media arts.

Through the Circles of practices, the DAÏMÔN team wishes to encourage its members to get involved in their community. The circles support the transmission of expertise and the acquisition of new knowledge. Follow us on Facebook for all the lineup!

CERCLE ÉLECTRONIQUE

Within the Cercle électronique, members are invited to experiment with everything from circuits, DIY synthesizers, robotics, microcontrollers to programming and coding. This circle can be of interest to both multidisciplinary visual artists and musicians wanting to learn how to repair or maintain equipment. Members will be invited to workshops and conferences, will be able to take advantage of the electronics laboratory, the soldering iron and the oscilloscope to troubleshoot their circuits; or even assemble a homemade modular synthesizer in a group.

A Facebook group has been created for members of the Cercle électronique to promote communication, event and opportunity sharing and spark dialogue between members.

CERCLE PHOTOGRAPHIE

Both film and digital photography artists are found within the Cercle photographie. Members are invited to discover and occupy the darkroom, test printing materials, compare the effect of lenses and experiment with lighting in our multifunction studio, as well as endlessly debate the ultimate question: should we say “cheese” or “pepsi” to have an optimal smile?

CERCLE VIDÉO

Within the Cercle vidéo, members are invited to study capture, post-production and special effects. They will also have the opportunity to learn more about 3D modeling, animation and everything related to the moving image. The members of the circle could, for example, set up ad hoc private screening activities to present their work in progress and invite peers to criticize them.
