PIKSEL 14
Piksel is an annual event for artists and developers working with free and open source software, hardware and art. Part workshop, part festival, it is organised in Bergen, Norway, and involves participants from more than a dozen countries exchanging ideas, coding, presenting art and software projects, doing workshops, performances and discussions on the aesthetics and politics of free and open source software.
The development, and therefore use, of digital technology today is mainly controlled by multinational corporations. Despite the prospects of technology expanding the means of artistic expression, the commercial demands of the software industries severely limit them instead. Piksel is focusing on the open source movement as a strategy for regaining artistic control of the technology, but also a means to bring attention to the close connections between art, politics, technology and economy.

London CryptoFestival 2013
Freaked out by spiralling revelations of NSA surveillance? Worried that the spooks have subverted the internet at every level to make it a vast, multi-layered panopticon? Or simply creeped out by the way services like Facebook & Gmail track everything you do so they can profile you for advertising?
Whatever your paranoia, now is not the time to give up on the internet. It's time for a CryptoFestival! On November 30th we're coming together to build on the success of the CryptoParty movement and to reclaim our right to communicate and experiment on the internet.
CryptoParties have taught thousands of people the basic ways of protecting themselves and their data from intrusive surveillance. London CryptoFestival will have skill-sharing sessions on how to have private conversations over instant messaging, how to encrypt emails, how to browse anonymously and how to reliably encrypt your hard disk amongst other things. It's peer-against-fear; the self-organised activity of people teaching each other essential privacy skills.

Electronic Literature Organization 2016 Festival
Picking up the thread from last year’s conference, The End(s) of Electronic Literature, we chose the theme “New Horizons,”—that is, looking past current practices and ahead to future ones, with emphases on literary games, preservation, and new digital technologies.
The festival involves 27 works in the Exhibit, 13 Readings & Performances, four works in the Screenings, and five Sound Installations — for a total of 49 works. Caitlin Fisher, ELO 2016 Artistic Director, and her team of curators — Brenda Grell (Exhibit), Jim Andrews (Readings & Performances, Jim & Justine Bizzocchi (Screenings) and John Barber (Sound Installations and radioELO) have selected some excellent works involving mobile apps, AR/VR, robotics, video, net art, sound art, and other forms that reflect our theme.

Ha!wangarda 2014 International Literary Festival
The Ha!wangarda Festival is geared towards promotion and presentation of avant-garde, experimental trends in global and Polish literature. Digital art presentations introducing the most significant works of electronic literature, generative literature workshops, exhibitions of video games based on literature and meetings with authors are the main features of the festival. It presents the diverse genres of digital literature, original approaches towards the book as a medium, and visual literature; it prioritizes writers who have freshly emerged onto the literary scene. On one hand, it maps current trends in experimental writing, and on the other it explores the question of the future of literature in the digital world.
