CINARS Network is a web initiative to enhance contacts beyond the Biennale and make them work all year long.

I cannot upload my video. Why?
At this moment, only a few formats are fully supported and the file cannot be extremely large. Make sure that your video is in .mp4, .avi, .mov, or .flv, and that its size does not exceed 100 Mb. Only the first two minutes of the video will be shown to the presenters.
