Monthly meeting of DrupalMad, a community of Drupal developers in Madrid. Drupal is a free software package that allows an individual or a community of users to easily publish, manage and organize a wide variety of content on a website. This session will be focused on translations and languages in Drupal, by Jorge López-Lago (aka kurkuma) of Metadrop.
Multidisciplinary meeting within the framework of Helloworld! Stage Creation and New Technologies, where three stage creators will dismantle the limits of the theater physical space: Guillermo Casado and his Proyecciones adaptables, an opensource software that allows us to interact with a virtual stage, build it and shape it during the performance. Cristina Blanco, Madrilian performer, walks on the line of space and science with Ciencia-Ficción, ready to even make atoms dance. Or the work of the playwriter Roger Bernat (Hacer cosas con personas) where borders of the theatical system desapear, turning the audience into the main character of the show.
Session presented by David Rodríguez, coordinator of Helloworld! Platform.
