AveCom, traditionally a stage for new media, and Square Eyes, the Arnhem festival for short digital film, have joined forces and present: “It’s all in the game…”
The exhibition and the three-day festival are based on the interactivity between art and games.

Exhibition

Most of the artworks shown in the exhibition are derived from the intersection of audio- visual / digital / new media / technological innovation. If sculptors, painters, architects, sound-artists, performers or photographers were inspired by the game, they will surely be shown in this edition.

Festival

AveCom has reserved a special space for the Square Eyes Festival during AveCom. They compiled a special film- and performance programme for “It’s all in the game…” during the first three days.

This programme focuses on the connection between games and film. With the development of the digital techniques, these two worlds come closer and closer together, often even seem to merge into one another. Besides the technical aspects of digital film, attention will go to the characteristic visuals brought on by the games. Square Eyes Festival will be present with a screening-room, a space for performances and a festival cafe with DJ’s VJ’s whose sounds refer to games.
