Celebrating Brazilian Open Digital Culture: Festival Cultura Digital.

By Raquel Rennó.

The Festival Cultura Digital took place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil - 
between the 2nd and the 4th of December 2011. It gathered 6 thousand 
people in about 20 open discussions, 20 workshops and 52 international 
and national projects, bringing together political institutions, 
artists, companies, activists and intellectuals in a hybrid format. The 
main goal was to change and broaden the limits of digital practices and 
connect to other people and networks from other cities, states and 
countries.
