http://festival.plektrum.ee/

"Plektrum – The Festival of Visual Sound" is the main platform for audio-visual media culture in Tallinn – the capital of Estonia. Taking place this September for the 5th time, it showcases events that range from eclectic avant-garde music parties and forward thinking VJ-performances to media-art happenings and exciting hands-on workshops. The main aim of the festival is to bridge new technologies with the innovative ideas baking in the creative minds that lay scattered across different disciplines. By urging, promoting and sustaining the popularization and development of new media, Plektrum shapes the cultural landscape of the 21st century that will distinguish Tallinn as the European Capital of Culture in 2011. We hereby invite you join us in Tallinn for an unforgettable experience of Visual Sound!"

I spent a day in Riga after flying there from Zurich. I checked out the Riga History museum. It covers a similar range of history as the Tallinn City museum.


I should add that in Riga I did not visit the museum dedicated to period of Soviet occupation of Latvia:

The Museum of the Occupation of Latvia 1940 - 1991


Here is the website for the Estonian Museum of Occupations
