About
Two days of non stop Virtual Reality experiences, installations, dance and music, workshops and a symposium. Suitable for artists, New Media and art lovers and families. Almost all events are free.
This year's festival explores Big Data through an artistic lens. What does Big Data mean for our society? Is our data safe? How will it impact future generations?
Event highlights include a solo adaptation of Alexander Whitley's visually striking and kinetically charged choreography The Measures Taken, which saw sell out runs at Sadlers Wells and the Royal Opera House, a chance to go on a virtual reality adventure with CREW's C.a.p.e. and Anna Dumitriu's new work Sequence that fuses leading edge digital technology with bacterial bioart.
