Lost Labs

Announcing Lost Labs – a new experiment in accelerating creative potential.

 

At Lost Arts we're curious about those who are curious. And we're fascinated by the potential of curiosity intersecting with ambition. Lost Labs is an accelerant taking curiosity with applied ambition to explore the potential of curiosity.

Designed as a three–month program, our first launching January 2018, Lost Arts is inviting teams and individuals to push the boundaries of their ideas in product development, art practice, technology, architecture, and more. We are inviting anyone with ambition to prove themselves and a project to drive that desire, to apply. We're looking for Technologists, Designers, Architects, Artists, Writers and anyone with a tenacious creative spirit.
