Activities

2010

For Nuit Blanche, MFF 2010 offers a breathtaking view on digital artworks presented in the Brussels public space and all over Europe.  During one night, the buildings along the canal will be pulsating to the rhythm of the city, while signs and advertising displays will be transformed into virtual artworks. An unusual walk in the heart of the digital city!

2010

The Artvertiser is an urban, hand-held 'Improved Reality' project that re-purposes street advertisements as the surface for exhibiting art. During this 3-days workshop, participating artists will have the opportunity to create visual works to replace urban advertisement in Brussels. They will be able to experiment and analyse real time computer vision techniques developed by Julian Oliver and his team.
