Impakt Festival 1997

The 8th Impakt festival will be organized from May 7 to 11, 1997 in
Utrecht, The Netherlands.

Impakt is an international festival for innovative audiovisual arts. The
festival is a showcase for avantgarde film, video art, music,
installations, performances and multi media events. Lectures and
exhibitions complete the programme.

Programmes this year include:

* The Art of Destruction - the destruction of art and the art of
destruction. Destruction as critique and as aesthetic ideal.
* 1001 Plateaus - after the ideas of the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze,
theoretical provocator and cyberkid avant-la-lettre.
* The Element of Time - the notion of time, borrowed and manipulated:
compress, expand, parallel time and new temporal experience in the light of
the digital media.

And: cinematographic sculptures, David Toop, Scanner, Christina Kubisch,
and Panorama: the most exciting, funniest and strangest films and videos of
the past year.
