Beehive Malta

Beehive is an ongoing artistic research experiment developed by Ars Electronica for

collecting and contextualizing video and image content from visitors and activities during 2017 Maltese Presidency of the Council of the EU. In the broadest sense it is a cross-media

system for crowdsourced video and image documentation. Beehive serves as the central

metaphor: like in a society of bees, registered participants swarm out, capture

footage of an event from a multitude of perspectives and return it (to the

hive) to be ingested into the collective pool.
