HANDSHAKE is a communications project in the space of the INTERNET.
Conceived of as an installation, what is erected for the Video- Fest spectators and people of the networking branch is a communications space. During the VldeoFest interested visitors and artists, along with media theorists and experts will be invited to enhance the information- exchange that takes place in this electronic space. The emerging process of interplay with the underlying information-pool will be called up over the global network connection as well as, in their current forms, from the installation present at the Video- Fest. Prepared communications and perceptual experiments, on a word and image basis, will be available to guide the participants and inform them of cultural details. Its physical presence is an ensemble of circuits - understood as a transportation system for immaterial goods - created as a space. It offers a wide range of networking options for an overlapping of communication between personalities, diverse ways of seeing and nationalities.
