Saturday gave us a few changes as Viadro Project from Poland was unable to to travel due to flooding! Michal Dudek opened the evening with his home-spun instruments, and we asked David Plans Casal to do a second concert with his formant-driven piano music. Adduce followed, and then Matt Ganucheau who was here for the He and MyCloud installations, but prooved to have some very nice music of his own up the sleeve.

Mikkel Meyer

Saturday ended with a great performance by Danish cph_cpu, and visuals were provided over the week by Danish Motorsaw and Bopal.

Two sets of video screenings could be had at the cinema alternating over the week, including Enrique Maitland, Diego Garro, Jacob Ballinger and Martin Stig Andersen, Morten Riis and Guilherme Darish & Marcelo Mendes.
