Hey David, folks,
I know only little about what is going on, but it seems that Nóra left
transmediale in the spring, after the last festival. Somewhat implicitly
the current situation can be gleaned from the pages on the website,
https://transmediale.de/en/about
/team
/history
The upcoming festival appears to be taking shape, so it seems that this
story will continue...
Regards,

Does anyone on the list have any intel on what's happening with
Transmediale? I had heard rumours that Nóra Ó Murchú had stepped down
from the director role.. But I don't know if that is really the case...
The on-line announcement for the 2025 looks pretty thin gruel. But given
the state of German economy I imagine they have had some significant
cuts. Then of course there was all the cultural politics boycotts etc
around Israel's actions in Gaza- West Bank - Lebanon-and now Syria must
still be impacting the future of the festival. I ask of because for many
on the list it is a very important festival that has done great work in
the past and I guess there must be nettime people who can throw some
light on the current situation.
