MUTEK is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the development and dissemination of digital creativity in sound, music, and audio-visual art. Founded in 2000 in Montreal, Canada, MUTEK has presented a considerable number of renowned artists while simultaneously providing an important showcase for up-and-coming talent. Always looking to develop and redefine the horizons of digital culture, from early on MUTEK has striven to expand its sphere of activities beyond the core festival in Montreal.
Founded in November 2009, MUTEK.ES’s principal activity is the presentation of the MUTEK.ES festival in Barcelona, Spain. Each festival edition is committed to showcasing the finest emerging and established digital arts talent to local audiences, while simultaneously supporting the Catalunyan and Spanish artistic community by providing it with an internationally recognized platform within an environment of discovery, experimentation and exchange.
