ABOUT MULTIPLACE: Multiplace was formed as a result of collective efforts of various organisers and associations from the fields of art and technology in Slovakia and later in Czech Republic, Austria and Europe. Its first activity was Multiplace new media event in April 2002, and since then the festival is organised anually each spring focusing on networked art and culture. In 2004, a civic non-for-profit association Multiplace was founded, which operates on a basis of open organisation. Today, Multiplace plays a crucial role in communication, theory and promotion of media arts in central Europe.
