> VILLETTE DIGITAL
> International Electronic Arts and New Media Festival
> The Villette Digital festival is a joint initiative of the Cite des
> Sciences, the Cite de la Musique and the Parc de la Villette. It is both a
> showcase for major works from around the world and a forum for
> experimentation and study. Its aim is to bring together projects directly
> involved in the use of digital technologies and it encourages visitors to
> share in many experiments during their entertaining, participative and
> sensory experience. In this way, the festival's installations, concerts,
> shows, games, workshops and digital cinema explore the impact of new
> technologies on our everyday lives and the radical changes they are
> bringing about in our cultural landscape.
