Trbovlje, The New Media Setting
Activities
Among its main outlets are the international new media festival Speculum Artium and the accompanying festival DigitalBigScreen. TNM also sets up smaller exhibitions in the gallery of the Delavski dom Trbovlje Cultural Centre and at other festivals and exhibition spaces around Slovenia. In 2017, TNM opened up a virtual mining museum, called 4. Dritl.
Regular educational and cultural work with primary schools take place under the auspices of the project, as well as a high school course in "new media creativity". The enterprise has a long-term goal of co-establishing some sort of a new media arts academy.
TNM has established various connections with arts, research and education institutions all over Europe. Among them are the Universität für angewandte Kunst Wien and the University of Arts in Linz.
The Telenoid™, designed to appear and to behave as a 'minimalistic' human, was featured at the Speculum Artium Festival, as was its main inventor, dr. Hioshi Ishigura, 2013
