RIXC new initiative “NORTH – creative network” is response to unstable situation of this moment, which requires constant and rapid changes in culture and art sector and finding new, innovate solutions for more sustainable future. Past years, new media artists have developed and expanded their field of interests far beyond the so-called "new media" borders. They are engaged in sustainability issues, looking at them from different perspectives – social, cultural, environmental and technological. NORTH Creative Network (NCN) – for open innovation and cultural exchange will be developed by project partners from Latvia, Iceland and Norway in a result of the project activities, taking place in all three countries. The project mission is to contribute towards sustainable culture development by designing and building more accessible routes into the sector of creative industries.

Project is taking place as part of European Economic Area Financial mechanism Programme LV04"Conservation and revitalisation of cultural and natural heritage".
