Provide a regular opportunity for emerging audio-visual artists to establish themselves professionally: it is very difficult for these artists to show their work. The festival also aims to support those artists who are already better-placed in the market.• Stimulate video artists´ creativity, provide feedback for them and establish a productive interaction with society as a whole.• Support audio-visual trends which are developing and evolving in line with technological breakthroughs at all levels.• Find a point where academic and experimental can meet to create a festival based fundamentally on recognising innovate contribution.• Provide audiences with a clear picture of the current state and possible future of video art and digital audio-visual art. Artists, prizewinners and professionals from the video art world will take part in a wide range of activities including master classes, open forums, technical courses and workshops, enabling them to share their experience, expectations, future projects and creative approach with the public.• Create a new environment to exhibit and aquire video art alongside the art fairs, museums and galleries. This will serve as a training ground for video artists and a reference point where galleries, collectors, critics, curators and cultural organisations can discover what is on the up in this field.
