Mediamatic Salons
Present yourself
At the Mediamatic Salons, artists, designers and other makers regularly present and discuss work in progress.
Artists, theorists and designers give 20 minute lectures and performances.
Show me yours and I'll show you mine...
Makers can meet other makers and discuss works in progress, and sometimes we also offer a dinner program or concert.
The salon programme is presented by Jans Possel.
