NCM is situated on the lands of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people. We pay respects to them, especially their Elders and storytellers, as well as all First Peoples, nationwide. NCM acknowledges that communication technologies have a long history here, far longer than European occupation.

We're closed until 19 September

NCM is closed from 10 August while we deinstall Stigmergy and prepare our next exhibition, Radical Computing, opening on Saturday 19 September (right in time for the school holidays).

A huge thank you to everyone who visited Stigmergy, our PSEUDO x NCM exhibition as part of RISING Melbourne. It’s been a joy to hand over the keys of the gallery to artists to see what type of alternative network they’d create when not beholden to big tech.

Explore more about Radical Computing below and we can’t wait to see you when we open our doors in a few weeks’ time!
