In the previous year the annual RIXC festival made a turn by changing
its title and course ? from early networked cultures of 90s and
?art+communication? ideas, the festival has now made a shift towards
more broader art and science fields.

This year festival has two fold intent. The first, is to explore more
profoundly transformative potential of art, by reflecting upon the
changing social cultural landscape of Europe and globe, taking into
account the shifting geophysical, geopolitical and technological vectors
that are shaping it. The second, is to explore the changing notion of
contemporaneity and its impact on the media art and networked cultures
in 21^st century.

Taking place in framework of Changing Weathers project, the festival
program will feature Open Fields ? an international academic art and
science conference, providing a theoretical base for the festival
exhibition. The exhibition will take place from September 29 ? November
6, 2016 in the new Exhibition Hall of the National Library of Latvia,
complemented by public lectures, artists presentations, workshops and
performances.
