19-20h Panel discussion: "VISIBILITY FOR AUDIO"We are planning a panel discussion followed by a discussion about the visibility and promotion of our audio work. How can we make our work more tangible and accessible to a wider audience? How do we show what audio creation in Switzerland has to offer? Do we need a national platform for our works? How can we work across language barriers?

What is an unconference? It's a kind of open-ended format that thrives on the ideas and input of the participants. At the beginning, we collect topics and ideas for discussion rounds, inputs and mini-workshops and then put together our program on site. All ideas for sessions are welcome: discussing burning questions, exchanging technical know-how, listening to rough cuts together, presenting concepts and giving feedback... Feel free to bring your session suggestions!
