From October 31st to November 3rd, 2019, the second edition of OCCULTURE BERLIN took place, this year at the Anomalie Art Club.
Everybody was already full of praise about the 2018 edition, but this year the organizers went even further and created an exciting and extraordinary event.
THOTH-HERMES is happy and proud to be Media Partner of that great conference. With this (very) special episode we want to look back at this wonderful event.
Let those who are too far away or unable to go to Berlin take part in it, inspire those who missed the conference in 2019 to attend the next one, and give a nice memory edition to those who where there and enjoyed – this is the aim of this episode.
