Newsletter December 2012

The year 2012 has been particularly dense for Transcultures with the organization of the Biennale for digital cultures Les Transnumériques and the 10th edition of the international sound festival City Sonic and other European projects. In the uncertainty of the budgets for culture here and elsewhere which require new forms of solidarity and economy, we will try to redefine with our priorities in 2013 to support the digital, sonic and hybrid artistic projects. 2013 thanks for sharing those precious moments with us, keep it up and see you soon for other adventures!
