New for 2017, the Manchester International Festival had a fresh emphasis on the interplay between the physical and digital realms. In response to this we invited 50 aspiring and emerging creatives from across Greater Manchester to join us in a three-month programme to learn new skills, collaborate and creatively responded to the festival.
