The aim of the festival is to disseminate information about media art and photography, to attract and maintain interest in presenting and promoting these art forms, to strengthen the existing and to establish new collaborations with institutions of higher education with media art study programmes, to create a space for artists, students and amateurs to share their experiences, to establish new contacts and to implement joint projects in the future.
The theme of the festival is THE FUTURE OF THE INTERACTION BETWEEN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND ART.
Professional artists, students and amateurs are invited to create artworks that reflect the new realities, opportunities and risks that artificial intelligence brings to our society.

Submissions will be judged by the festival‘s jury of leading experts in photography and media art. The selected artworks will be exhibited in solo and group exhibitions during the festival period – 1– 31 October.
