 The first video of the Project Cultural Adventures: exploring connections, transactions and interactions between South West Europe and South East Asia, developed by the European video artist, Hanspeter Ammann, will be available soon.

Cultural Adventures is a scientific and artistic development project developed by CIAC, in collaboration with the School of Architecture and Design Technology of King Mongkut Thonburi (http://www.arch.kmutt.ac.th/index.php), in the areas of visual communication and digital art, with the mediation and collaboration of the audiovisual artist Hanspeter Amnann (http://hanspeterammann.ch).

In January, CIAC signed a collaboration agreement with this Thai institution to develop research and experimental initiatives that promote scientific, technical and artistic cooperation between the University of Algarve and that international institution.

The project seeks interactions between Faro and Bangkok, exploring historical, contemporary, cultural, documentary, fictional, factual and symbolic relations between two distinct cultural contexts.

The mediation between the institutions will be held with thecollaboration of the audiovisual artist Hanspeter Amnann, member of the Advisory Board of the CIAC.

The researchers Bruno Mendes da Silva from CIAC and Nigel Power from KMUTT share the scientific responsibility of the project.
