DESCRIPTION
This is the first comprehensive monograph of the Sonic Acts Festival. The richly illustrated volume captures the ninth edition of the festival, in which a special focus was placed on artists working with computer-generated images and software tools. The book not only surveys ‘the world behind the laptop’ but traces through-lines from earlier editions of the festival to contemporary developments into the fields of media arts, electronic music, and multimedia presentations.
