The Vjing is now an established and growing phenomenon in which one can clearly distinguish different techniques, different styles, different approaches, different backgrounds, different destinations and, at the Peam, a common place: VisualBridge. A bridge of union that, by combining different cultures, will show the public a broad spectrum of expressive possibilities in the practice of VJing.
The performances of vjs invited will take place throughout the period of the event, connecting the various moments to create a continuous uninterrupted view.
