Kitchen Budapest in collaboration with Ludwig Museum, Hungarian Academy of Fine Arts, Eötvös Lórand University of Science and together with other partners from Hungary and the SEE region got the opportunity to coordinate regional events in the context of the 100th anniversary in 2011 of the birth of Herbert Marshall McLuhan as part of  the program organized by Transmediale McLuhan in Europe 2011.

The Kitchen Budapest are also conducting Research about the usage of moving image from March 30 – May 31, 2011. As the medialab in Budapest we are focusing on the media-usage in different ages. We are organizing an auto-etnograph research for young people and a workshop based public event for kindergarten kids. As we are planning with the interactive public installation we are reopening or rethinking the theme: media, or media-usage in our everyday life.

Research with kids: Video-etnograph based research about media equipment and everyday usage of cinematographic usage with kids.
Video-ethnographic research: Video-etnograph based research about media equipment and everyday usage of cinematographic usage with 65 and 85 year-old retired people.
