The symposium is a collaboration between the Digital Cultures Lab of Nottingham Trent University and the Radiator Festival for New Technology Art. Run by Trampoline, the Radiator Festival takes place every second year in Nottingham. While involving partners from throughout the East Midlands, the festival umbrellas Trampoline’s second home, Berlin. As a local hub for digital arts activities, Radiator aims to promote digital arts in the region while instigating exchange by inviting UK-wide and international artists to Nottingham. This year the festival expands its own boundaries to include the city streets as well as a range of new partner venues. Radiator 05 (1 - 4 Dec 2005) presents installations, screenings, workshops, talks, performances, music and satellite events live and online at Broadway, Angel Row Gallery, Future Factory, Victoria Studios, Waverley 1851, Malt Cross, Surface Gallery, Sandfield Centre and Preset.
