VIPER-Festival Lucerne

here an event for all of you, who want to taste another Swiss-chocolate!

VIPER 1996 - 22. - 27. Oct.
opens new horizons. Makes sparks fly. Does the digital tango. An arena for
rebels and dreamers, heretics and nomads, pioneers and visionaries.
VIPER's new focus this year is on the challenges of technical innovation
and social conflicts. Alongside the traditional programme categories, the
thematic programme "Simulation/Stimulation" reflects the transformation of
human sensory perception in the context of the ever-increasing rate of
media development.
VIPER is Switzerland's first stop for visually innovative insights and
outlooks. And all of this in the city whose very name is light: Lucerna.

MULTIMEDIA-Programme

As the 20th century draws to a close, one thing cannot be overlooked: human
being still have bodies. These bodies stand, however, at the centre of a
rapidly-growing number of interactive technologies.
With a new emphasis each day, "Simulation/Stimulation" focuses on relevant
aspects of representations, identity, sensuality and trancendence, and
provides a plattform for critical discussion of the newest audiovisual
turnovers and socio-cultural discoveries. International guest lecturers,
thematic project presentations, and a wide-ranging programme of films
permit partecipators to delve into to the question of the transformation of
sensory perception.
