[spectre] CIVA Festival – Contemporary Immersive Virtual Art

[Zalán Szakács]

Dear spectre!



Under the title "Social Distancing - Virtual Bonding," CIVA, Vienna's new media art festival, explores the question of whether and how current technologies enable us to stay connected to each other on a virtual level in times of physical distancing, or even to build new international networks and communities.


The program of the first edition includes a virtual exhibition open around the clock, a three-day discourse program with international talks, workshops and performances, four live concert evenings, two film screenings, a digital wellness day as well as a comprehensive mediation offer including theme-oriented CIVA Ambassador Groups, numerous tours and special workshops for young people.


The whole festival is online and is freely accessible via <http://www.civa.at/>or<http://twitch.tv/civa_at>
