Avatar and Phonurgia Nova are joining forces to open a new production residency for the Phonurgia Nova Awards 2023.
These residencies are awarded on a “project” basis, and take place in partner studios: GMEM center national de création musicale (Marseille), Euphonia (Marseille), Art Zoyd (Valenciennes) and, for the first time this year, Avatar (Quebec City).
