After two successful years bringing international media artists to discuss their work at Georgia Tech, The Global Media Festival: Sustainability Across Languages and Cultures takes a further step by showcasing the creation of community-based media infrastructures that operate with alternative sources of energy. Our signature event for this year is Solar Cinema in Puerto Rico: A Conversation with Dr. Arturo Massol, professor at the University of Puerto Rico, Mayagüez, and director of Casa Pueblo, in Adjuntas Puerto Rico, who will be speaking about the creation of a Solar power cinema after Hurricane María.
