COMPOSITE is an appointment quarterly networking magazine dedicated to digital creativity. It was born from an initiative of the Conseil des arts de Montréal, and is now coordinated by MAPP_MTL in collaboration with important actors of the Montreal digital sector. The goal of this event is to create a recurring meeting place between the art and industry sectors of the digital sector, by encouraging la rencontre et la pollinisation entre créateur·rice·s, centres d’artistes, organismes, entreprises et professionnel·le·s du numérique.
Each COMPOSITE event follows the same structure. A minute of announcement and inspiration introduces the evening: 10 digital actors each have one minute to share an important announcement for the digital creation sector or a project that inspired them.
This is followed by 6 keynote presentations, each lasting 6 minutes, of projects previously selected by the COMPOSITE committee through a call for participants. They can be from the art, industry or social innovation sectors; the common thread is their ability to inspire, stimulate innovation and awaken in the audience a desire for discovery and exploration.
The event concludes with an evening of networking, the purpose of the workshop was to provide a forum for discussion, allowing both presenters and participants to network and develop their respective projects.
