About the festival

digital_ia is one of the most important new media art events in Poland. It's a platform presenting the latest events on the border of art and technology. This year's main theme is real_virtuality.

THE THEME

real_virtuality is an inversion of virtual reality. The common denominator for the artworks presented on this festival is relation between two worlds: the real and the virtual one. The first is imposed on us, we can't control it, it's full of imprefections, which we have to accept sooner or later. The virtual world can be symmetrical and mathematically perfect, still allowing us to create a real-life simulating systems using complacated algorithms and controlled chaos.

This year's artists show works, that function on the border of these two worlds. They let the viewers to manipulate virtual objects in a very intuivite way on the one side and let the members of the computer-generated world to appear in a more realistic way, exceeding the computer screen.
