LATITUDES x RADICAL SOUNDS LATIN AMERICA Oct 12 – 14 [Panel Discussions]
October 12, 2020 - October 15, 2020

The Latin American region is historically, socially and culturally diverse, but the basics that constitute us carry factors that also unite us. Within the artistic and electronic ecosystems of each country, there are inexhaustible talents and new movements that arise daily. The counterpart arrives with the lack of structures that allow cultural development, in the same way that we are subjected to paradigms that cannot be maintained, such as the thought that artists and sounds from other parts of the world are worth more than your own.
LATITUDES arises from the need to unite, think and create together as regional block. We started this project by replicating the ECO model, in Colombia, with panels that will focus on the different problems those that we face -as ecosystems and artists- in Latin America. The talks will be broadcast via YouTube on the Latitudes channel.
