FESTIVAL CURATORIAL
Cyberia Festival explores and celebrates the potential of new media technologies. The festival explores utopic futures through the lens of play.
We have moved from the notion of man vs machine to man integrated with the machine. Technological systems are connecting humans, data, and realities together. Through interdisciplinary approaches, Cyberia triggers experimentation and the creation of experiences to spark collective future dreaming.
