Developh is a research & arts institution for critical & creative technologies in the Philippines. We believe technology isn't just a tool—it's a medium for cultural expression, creative experimentation, and critical inquiry.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐞 𝐝𝐨: We produce art exhibitions, publications, and educational programming that blends art & code, theory & practice, the computational & the poetic. We bring together artists, technologists, writers, and researchers in our work.

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭: We've showcased Filipino internet art on international stages—from Art Fair Philippines (Manila) to Tai Kwun (Hong Kong) and WSA (New York). We've been recognized by Forbes 30 Under 30, and most importantly, we've supported hundreds of Filipino creatives and technologists in developing their practice.

𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐰𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡: Cultural institutions, community organizations, and tech companies who share our vision of a more creative, critical, and inclusive tech landscape.

We're just getting started. If you're interested in the future of art and technology in Southeast Asia, let's connect.

On Sunday, May 4, we mark the 25th anniversary of ILOVEYOU — the infamous computer worm that caused billions in damage at the login of the new millennium. What initially started as a thesis project to bridge the digital class divide triggered an unprecedented standstill in everyday-computing and business-as-usual, putting a stop to email systems of large banks, corporations, and government agencies like the UK Parliament and US Department of Defense.

A 3-hr show commemorating the virus that turned the world upside down, we invite the tech saboteurs, trade unionists, and cultural workers—speaking about strike victories, scam hubs, spamming Big Art, and the Palestinian cyberintifada—proving promise that the best hacks are still to come.
