The 2008 edition of the MUTEK Montreal wrapped not too long ago, but the good folks who organize the festival aren’t sitting still. The crew will head south of the border at the end of October for the fifth year of MUTEK Mexico in Mexico City.

The four-day festival, set to take place October 23 – 26, will, like its Montreal counterpart, feature an international lineup of artists and a series of panels and conferences. Flying Lotus, Jimmy Edgar, Deadbeat, Wighnomy Brothers, Anja Schneider, and others are already confirmed on the bill. A complete lineup will go public next week.
