Berlin's annual Transmediale festival is returning to the Haus der Kulturen der Welt (House of World Cultures) from the 28th January to the 1st February, 2009. The theme for this year is ‘Deep North’: the festival will explore the debate surrounding global warming, but rather than echoing alarmist responses often voiced in the press, the festival aims to raise awareness about the cultural, societal and philosophical ramifications of environmental issues.
