Omnium is a research group of artists, designers, programmers, writers and academics who work collaboratively (and from different countries) to explore the potential the Internet allows for what we term – online collaborative creativity (OCC). Our activities are split into four main areas:
• Omnium Research
• Omnium Software
• Omnium Design Studio
• Omnium Outreach Projects

Omnium Outreach Projects aim to assist and aid communities in need in a variety of countries (often other creative people in less fortunate situations or settings) via harnessing the potential of art and design projects to engage and make a difference within a global society.
These community based projects are driven by Omnium’s overall aim to encourage students, educators and professionals from all over the world to collaborate in a variety of ways, to focus their attention on more socially aware and ethically responsive art and design projects. All Omnium Outreach Projects are run as non-profit ventures and funded in full from sales of Omnium Software licenses and commercial design projects completed through the Omnium Design Studio.
Omnium Outreach projects include:
• Outreach Sri Lanka
• Outreach Kenya - Visualising Issues in Pharmacy (VIP ‘07)
• Outreach Philippines - [re]frame Manila.
• Outreach Philippines- [e]merge
