What’re we about?
Malmö Jams Too began with a group of interaction designers with an appetite of social knowledge sharing through creative meetups. We started with sketch jams but now attempt a few other jams (like game jams) as well.
The goal is to bring creative people together from all disciplines: professionals, students and hobbyists who want to collaborate and share their knowledge and experience. We believe “jams”, which are gatherings where people engage in creative activities, are great experiences that achieve our desired sense of creative community.
For the first 5 years we kept to a weekly sketch jam schedule, though starting autumn of 2017 we switched to a monthly schedule to allow us to provide better jam experiences. During 2019-2020 we switched to virtual meetups (it did not go smoothly).
That said, our usual haunt is at Condeco at Södra Tullgatan 4, Malmö, from 17:00–20:00 (you can stay longer, of course). We have a rather inactive Facebook page (which may deactivate in future).
If you are interested in getting our event reminders, we recommend joining our mailing list (signup below).
You may also simply visit our website to see the next planned jam or incoming event.
Really quick, what’s a game jam?
An event where you meet up with others to attempt making a game within a limited time on decided themes/constraints. Join one to learn, network, be productive and to have an enjoyable time! They are similar to hackathons but for games and playful prototypes.
