Welcome

Welcome to the Boston Cyberarts Festival blog. The biennial Boston Cyberarts Festival has become an eagerly anticipated part of the Boston-area arts and technology scene since the first one took place in 1999. The Festival is the largest collaboration of arts organizations in New England and the only new media Festival in the world that encompasses all art forms, including both visual and performing arts, film, video, electronic literature, and public art.

The concept behind this blog is to give some insight as to the artistic and technological genius that goes into developing the exhibitions and performances that make up this year’s Festival. We will be asking some of the finest artists participating in 2007 to write descriptions of their creative process, what the outcome will look like and even some preview video and sound files.

The Festival celebrates the rich history of art and technology in New England, while providing a forum for the international cyberart community to come together and glimpse the future.

Thank you,

George Fifield, Director
