Newsletter 33
👋 Welcome
Well well, we are back again with our new media art newsletter! Got some lovely bits for you here but before we get into it, some housekeeping.
We are doing another meetup for the digital art community in Galway! Find the event listing below to find out more about how to submit and RSVP. We look forward to seeing you all there and seeing some amazing projects :) This meetup has been made possible by Centre for Creative Technology who are kind enough to give us their great new space and Galway Culture Company along with Cybernate for sponsoring us, thank you for allowing us to keep these free!
As always, feel free to reach out to us with any feedback or suggestions via email to [email protected]
For now, enjoy the read!
