On Tuesday, February 17, 2026 we’re going to have a big Lunar New Year Year of the Horse potluck during our hardware hack night. https://luma.com/clxkz1gz?tk=3wpZCK Let’s ring in the year of the horse together at our regular Tuesday night hack night & fixit clinic at Sudo Room! Bring food and treats to share =) In the meantime, January is a great time to work on cool and interesting projects around the year of the Horse. We’ll be assembling cultural documents, hardware project ideas, and interesting topics for the upcoming party. The projects can even include food hacking… fake money (crypto?) in red envelopes, zines… the sky’s the limit! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_(zodiac) http://www.wagmag.com/on-the-old-silk-road-with-chinas-celestial-horses/
TRISKEL AND SAMPLE-STUDIOS’ RESIDENCIES REMAIN A CRITICAL SUPPORT TO ARTISTS in 2026 Triskel Arts Centre and Sample-Studios are delighted to announce 7 new artist residencies and exhibitions for Cork City in 2026 in the TRISKEL SAMPLE Project Space. This partnership between Triskel Arts Centre and Sample-Studios, one of Ireland’s largest artist studios, was first established in 2024 with the mission to provide a new city-centre space that offers a developmental opportunity for local visual artists to make and present new work. Since then, it has hosted 44 artists who undertook 12 residencies, presented 13 exhibitions, and facilitated 49 Free Public Events. As Tony Sheehan, Triskel Arts Centre Director explains, “In advance of our new Strategic Plan, we have worked in partnership with Sample-Studios extensively to assess the needs of Cork’s visual arts community and how the Arts Centre might best work to bolster their ambition. Following research and consultation, it was identified that emerging and mid-career artists particularly in Cork lacked quality platforms to present their work to new audiences but also to develop work experimentally and in consultation with that audience.” Aoibhie McCarthy, Sample-Studios Artistic Director, elaborates “TRISKEL SAMPLE Project Space was established to provide a visual arts developmental project space for artists to test ideas, develop new work, experiment and take risks within a hybrid artist workspace/public exhibition space model that has proven hugely impactful as a platform.” 2025’s programme included solo exhibitions by Tetiana Milshyna, Viktoria Kondratieva, Kate McElroy, and Maitiú Mac Cárthaigh, who also undertook focused month-long residencies along with Fiona Boniwell, Annie Mar, and Ava Hayes. The 2025 programme culminated in a Cork Zine Fest takeover in November and solo exhibition by local artist Conor O’ Brien this December. The programme for 2026 promises to be even more jam packed with a diverse range of artist residencies, public exhibitions, workshops, and free events. The space will see the development of photography, painting, artistic research, writing, a children’s playspace, and a festival. The 2026 Artists in Residence will be: January/February: Síomha Callanan March/April: Kim Crowley May/June: Chris Finnegan July/August: Billy Lingwood September/October: Sarah Long November: Cork Zine Fest Residency December: Siobhán Collins
Some of our members were in Hamburg at the chaos Communication congress, so we watched although damn! We really wish we were there. Stuff was very casual and communal with a lot of music experimentation: Be sure to join us for the next open Darkmode session at the end of January: https://luma.com/mihl1bz6
