MUTEK's professional program returns this year, with a new title.
DIGI_SECTION offers a platform of reflective thinking and exchange
for all those who are interested in the field of electronic music and
digital creativity. Two whole days of panels and workshops will be
presented on Thursday, May 31st, and Friday, June 1st, at the HOTEL
GODIN, EX-CENTRIS, and the SOCIETY FOR ARTS AND TECHNOLOGY (SAT). The
program consists of five panels bringing international artists and
professionals to the same table, as well as twelve workshops led by
specialists.
Over the years, this professional portion of the Festival's
programming has become an essential and anticipated component of the
MUTEK experience.
Panels can be attended for a price of $7 each, and are free for
MUTEK_PASSPORT holders. Most of the workshops are offered for free.
Tickets for all activities will be available at the door one hour
before the beginning of each activity.
