Longtime transatlantic accomplices, Transcultures, Center for digital and sound cultures (Charleroi) and Rhizome, cultural organism managing events and interdisciplinary shows of living litterature (Quebec) are offering a new edition of ‘E-critures hybrides’. This bilateral event associates creation and reflexion by giving a new visibility to those poetic-intermedia new forms (by Belgian, Quebec and French artists/writers/researchers), as well with performative and audiovisual devices than with connected devices, in the framework of the Pépinières Européennes de Création.
