On the occasion of the new edition of the Mimesis Festival, the MIMebù publishing house launches Kaleidoscopio Lab, the new augmented reading platform for young and old dedicated to the discovery of diversity!
The books of the new Kaleidoscopio series will come alive on this platform through video workshops, readings, games and interviews.
Starting with texts translated from less widely used languages, the series will offer young readers a selected catalogue dedicated to the theme of diversity in its many aspects: diversity of age, gender, sexual identity, ethnicity, language, geographical origin and more.
The project won the 2020-2021 literary translation edition of EUROPA CREATIVA, a support programme for cultural and creative sectors with the aim of promoting and safeguarding linguistic and cultural diversity.
A rich calendar of presentations and creative workshops is planned, hosted on Kaleidoscopio Lab, a virtual place to exchange ideas, play games and chat together.
A project that challenges conventions beyond the book page, and offers the public a new take on the concept of interactive reading.
On 16 September, this new platform will be launched on the occasion of the release of the first two titles in the series, which reflect MIMebù’s identity.
We look forward to seeing you live on the social profiles of MIMebù and Festival Mimesis to be the first to learn about the many kaleidoscopic projects on the way!
