DAW07 - Zurich

The DIGITAL ART WEEKS, the Meeting Point between Art and Technology at ETH Zurich, is concerned with the application of digital technology in the arts. Consisting of symposium, workshops and performances, the Digital Art Weeks program offers insight into current research and innovations in art and technology as well as illustrating resulting synergies in a series of performances during the Digital Art Weeks Festival each year, making artists aware of impulses in technology and scientists aware of the possibilities of application of technology in the arts. DAW is organised by ETH the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich.
