Background
The M3C Network is rooted in a non-formal network, originally called the Cultural Information Backbone, which was formed in the second half of the 1990s. The project's aim was to connect organisations working with digital and information technologies and artistic production. Following funding from the Ministry of Culture and the former Ministry of Information Society, as well as from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) in 2004, the infrastructure of the network was extended to cover all Slovene regions.
Members
Currently there are 17 regional members in the network: Ljudmila - Ljubljana Digital Media Lab and Cyberpipe in Ljubljana; KIBLA Multimedia Centre in Maribor; PINA Primorje Information Atelier in Koper-Capodistria; Mostovna Cultural Centre in Nova Gorica and Mink Multimedia Centre in Tolmin; Multimedia Centre of Dolenjska (MCD) within the framework of Lokalpatriot in Novo mesto; Posavje Multimedia Centre in Krško, Brežice Youth Centre (MC Brežice); KRIK Pomurje Multimedia Centre in Murska Sobota, Prlekija Regional Multimedia Centre in Ljutomer; Celje Youth Centre, Kunigunda Regional Multimedia Centre (KRMC) in Velenje, Koroška Multimedia Centre in Slovenj Gradec, Mat kultra Multimedia Centre in Zagorje, Pulsar Multimedia Centre in Škofja Loka, and Pivka House of Culture in Pivka.
