Newport hosts international festival of digital artists worldwide

I was at the launch of an exciting new venture recently – a unique year long, on-line event which will showcase the work of digital artists worldwide, the International Festival of Digital Arts (IFDA).

By using the internet with enhanced video and sound quality, the Festival will transcend any traditional boundaries of time and space. There are several categories - including video and music - and anyone and everyone is invited to enter their work online.

I’ll certainly be entering some of my work – including a short film I’m working on about the love affair between a real person and their computer generated alter ego.

Partners in the Festival include the International Film School Wales which is based at Newport’s University, Newport City Council, Real Radio and The Riverfront Theatre and Arts Centre. Further details can be found on the Festival’s website: http://www.amritsa.com/idmf/home09.htm
