Conversation to Save the World!

April 13, 2009

After a long hiatus and many off-the-record conversations, I accepted an invitation from Eva de Groote to visit her in Ghent at  Vooruit Media Art Centre and somehow managed to time the trip so that I had the pleasure of conversing with many of the artists presenting their work in the festival: The Game Is Up! How to Save the World in Ten Days

Listen to Day One

Listen to Day Two

Listen to Day Three

More info, audio and video from the festival

This was my first official visit as Minister of Foreign Affairs and Prosperity, Cultural Consulat Rondeel. Read the full report on meetings and activities.
