  • Selected Shorts from 2009 ATA Festival to screen in Hong Kong

    A program of short works from the 4th Annual ATA Film & Video Festival is going to be part of the 14th edition of the Microwave International Media Arts Festival in Hong Kong. The screening will take place at the Lecture Hall of the Hong Kong Space Museum on December 12, 2010.

    As the first and only art festival in Hong Kong dedicated to new media art, Microwave has steadily grown into a well-established festival that brings cutting-edge works to provoke thought in the technological hub that Hong Kong is every year.

    With the theme SCREENARCADIA, Microwave International New Media Arts Festival 2010 is breaking the screen borders with a series of exhibitions, workshops, screenings and conference, and the very special world-touring street performance – “as if it were the last time”. Inviting audience to step into the screen world, open up its infinite possibilities.
