<td><span>The EMAF is one of the most influential forums of international Media Art. As an international meeting point for artists, curators, lenders, gallery owners and an audience of specialists, the festival has had a profound impact on the topic and aesthetics of Media Art for more than two decades.
<p>The festival offers its visitors a current overview of new experimental films, installations, performances, digital formats and hybrid forms, ranging from personal and political subjects to formal experiments and provocative statements. In 2009, the festival will explore the areas of long-term archival storage and the public options for use of Media Art. The exhibition entitled Image Battles refers to the connection between technological progress and the transformation of the images of war using current Media Art and historical exhibits.
</p><p>We include experimental short and feature films, music videos, new forms of narration and documentation as well as specials and retrospectives. At the festival an international jury will present the »EMAF Award« for trend-setting work in Media Art and the »Dialog Award« of the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the promotion of intercultural exchange. Furthermore, the jury of the German Federal Association of Film Journalists will award the prize for the best German experimental film.
</p><p>You are warmly invited to submit installations or media-sculptural works related to the theme of the exhibition.
</p><p>Artistic projects of digital media, performances, music and sound projects, as well as the latest concepts from expanded media.
