Since 1990, UniversCity TV is the creation and the setting up of a network of interactive communication, linking different European cities (Eurocities) thanks to the modern audiovisual media. The communication between the different Eurocities comes about through the experimentation of Advanced Technology.
UniversCity TV is a mobile laboratory bringing the participants (Cinema and Art school students, teenage groups, etc) a "savoir-faire" and truely "sharp" and "high performance" technical material . Graphical computer, effects control room, use of High Definition, satellite links for a direct and interactive connection between these different European cities (Mediacity)

Code Public (1984) the beginnig of the network

CODE PUBLIC was the live performance group for the activities of FRIGO: music, performance, theater. It was a mobile group , able to perfom quickly on a given situation and to reflect, to permanently reactualize the general concept of the show. CODE PUBLIC appeared as the reflexion space, the centralizing structure, the"quintessence" of the research undertaken by FRIGO. Human and philosophical base, the first spot of CODE PUBLIC was to consider and arrange the future of the group.
During the 70s and 80s, the artists who created the UniversCity TV network, had developed a laboratory of forms, FRIGO, based in Lyon (France) at the forefront of current researchs in art practices and digital media.

Under the generic names of Frigo, Minus Delta T, Code Public, Radio Bellevue, Van Gogh TV, they launched into action, and physically involved theirs art practices in the world. For them, reflection and action are two complementary aspects of the same approach. They were convinced that to engage in an action of any kind whatsoever, he must have acquired a certain degree of autonomy of philosophy, both as individuals and as members of a group.
