The curators of Cyberfest, Anna Frants and Elena Gubanova, gave the eleventh edition of the festival the title “Weather Forecast: Digital Cloudiness,” inviting audiences to view the changes in digital technologies as if they were changes in the weather.
At the opening held at the A. L. Stieglitz Academy, attendees came to check the artistic visibility and digital temperature. Among them were Leonid Frants, president of BigDataSolutions; artist Alexander Shishkin-Hokusai; curator Olesya Turkina; and many others.
Guests were inspired by the blend of architectural historicism and media art, even finding allusions to the films of Andrei Tarkovsky in the frantically swinging monkey from the piece “To Think the Unthinkable” by Italian artist Donato Piccolo.
