Kernel Festival /011 propose itself as a heterogeneous reality, an 
international event devoted to the multiform languages of contemporary art: 
Interactive & Digital Art, Audiovisual Mapping, Electronic Sound & Music, 
Temporary Architecture, for three days of great entertainment and a skillful 
mix of tradition and modernity, thanks to the neoclassic lines of Villa 
Tittoni Traversi, eighteenth-century jewel in the heart of Brianza, which 
will be the location of the event. An harmonic union between important 
avant-garde artists, international electronic musicians and young emerging 
talents, accurately selected among 250 proposals come from 39 countries, who 
will have the unique opportunity to show their skills.

Electronic music plan includes on Friday 1st Lab Frequency's dubstep, Kode9's 
deep sound, the versatile Dj Spooky and Mother Inc. group. On Saturday 2nd 
the different shades of techno: from the experimental Tonylight's rhythms to 
the concrete sound by Moritz Von Oswald Trio, from Shed's dark beats, star 
of  Berghain, to the performance of the special guest Troy Pierce. The music 
plan is completed by the sound installation Oscilla, by Andrea Santini, 
inside St Francesco's Chapel, open to public for the occasion.

Beside the Dj sets, big names of Audiovisual Mapping, as the Catalan 
community Telenoika, Roberto Fazio and AreaOdeon: the neoclassic shapes of 
Villa Tittoni will become the screen of architectural projections which 
redefine physical space, creating a synesthetic cohesion between visual and 
sonic landscape.

At the same time, Unframed, collective exhibition of interactive and digital 
art with works by Alex Posada, Angelo Plessas, Quayola and other artists who 
will investigate the several unpredictable and unrestrained visions of a 
reality beyond the senses.

In the park, Temporary Architecture installations by Michiko Yamada, Edi 
Sulga and Gianluca Milesi will explore the architectural language evolution 
through the production of new building and planning techniques, in favor of 
dynamic structures and innovative assemblages.

Finally, Kernel Festival won't be a static event, but a special place of 
interaction between rhythms, artistic techniques and different cultures, 
thanks to round tables, meetings and 5 workshops with famous artists 
specialized in the four areas of interest: Interactive & Digital Art, 
Audiovisual Mapping, Electronic Sound & Music, Temporary Architecture.

Kernel Festival /011: a breeding ground of minds, expert and emerging 
talents, where it will be possible to share ideas, emotions, pictures and 
sounds.
