FESTIVAL THEME

This year ’s theme explores the Double, Multiple, Contamination and off screen's extension of Cyberspace and proposes a reflection on the context of the Web as hybrid, plural and mixed spaces, issued from and anchored within specific histories and traditions.

Media artists now work more and more often in teams and must share their knowledge in such contexts. Coming from diverse backgrounds, their formal training is varied: visual arts, sciences, computers, communications, graphic design etc.

The resulting media art works demonstrate and expose these different influences and sources of inspiration. As such, this selection of innovative works from Canadian and international artists reflect these multiple avenues; cinematographic, contemplative, didactic and conceptual, among others.
