More than 140 participants from 26 countries were registered. The close collaboration between Bauhaus-University and Music Academy Franz Liszt where computer science, music, media-arts and media-culture meet had created the perfect environment.

| The funding situation seems difficult. Volkswagen Stiftung for example only fund conferences to one specific question with speakers focussing around this. May be that one panel can be condensed something what the Stiftung is willing to support. [http://www.dfg.de DFG] only funds conferences according to how many speakers have PhD or equivalent. In the last Pd conventions there were only a few. Kunststiftung Thüringen might be another possible partner. [http://eacea.ec.europa.eu/culture/funding/2010/call_strand_136_2010_en.php EU Funding for Festivals]. Sponsors could help to keep the costs at a low level. A travel agency should be among them.<br /> | |
