Newman festival is about the clash of human nature and modern technology, analyzing how contemporary media extends and redefines a human being. It is also a redefinition of a festival as such - a large portion of the event will be dedicated to arts and day—time activities, promoting post—club culture and attitude.
The first edition of Newman festival takes place 3-6 July 2015 in Druskininkai, Lithuania. For the festival, Sedition presents a curated selection of works by artists working with and thinking through digital technology featuring works by Angelo Plessas, Rafael Rozendaal, Katie Torn, Zeitguised, Mark Dorf and many more.
