Abandon Normal Devices
Event Info
Description
Abandon Normal Devices (AND) is a new festival that welcomes audiences
to experience the best in new cinema and media art in a celebration
that spills from screens and galleries into the streets and
imaginations of the North West. AND exists to create a space where
artists and filmmakers can offer striking new perspectives, and
visitors can enjoy, discuss and interact with ideas, in a festival that
questions the normal and champions a different approach.
The
festival will take place in Liverpool and Manchester on alternate
years, with an extended programme in Cumbria, Lancashire and Cheshire.
Expect an eclectic array of screenings, installations, online projects,
public realm interventions, workshops and live events, with a
distinctive emphasis on ideas and discussion.
The debut AND
festival takes place in Liverpool 23-27 September. Pop it in the diary
and please join us for five days of mind-blowing media art and
cinematic shenanigans...
