>From the 26th to the 28th January 2006, during Arte Fiera, the city 
>of Bologna will host the sixth edition of Netmage, an international 
>festival curated by Xing, aimed to explore media innovation within 
>the context of electronic arts.

Netmage 06, focusing on multi-media design, live media acts (sound 
and images played live) and cutting-edge styling, will work as a 
meeting point for multi-media artists, vjs, musicians, and performers 
from Europe, South and North America, Australia.

The festival, centered in the old castle of Palazzo Re Enzo, in 
Piazza Nettuno, will include an International Live-Media Floor, 
installations, performances, environments, a series of events 
featuring international guests performing live electronic music along 
with an innovative use of images, as well as forums.

Following its ongoing investigation, Netmage 06 will present some of 
the latest trends in live media. Together with research on essential 
aspects of perception and the intersection of visual and acoustic 
phenomena, the new edition of the festival will introduce a very wide 
range of approaches and styles, from hybridization of acoustic and 
electro-acoustic to neo-punk and twisted synchretism.
