From 2006 to 2010, she coordinated two European projects (CECN2 and Transdigital), led numerous training projects and artists in residence programs on digital performances, and created the magazine Patch, of which she was editor-in-chief. In 2011, she founded Subjectile, a publishing house dedicated to contemporary creation, whose books are regularly awarded prizes.
