15th MFRU Random Access Memory

12.–14. November 2009, Maribor, Slovenia

Celebrating its 15th anniversary in 2009, the festival marks a critical moment for reflection on its evolution and significance in contemporary art. The festival has expanded its scope, with an emphasis on developing connections between independent artists, institutions, and the IT industry, fostering a broader platform for intermedia art. In 2009, MFRU focused on the archiving of digital art, revisiting its extensive archive of past works, press reviews, and theoretical publications. The festival also integrated with the Kiblix festival and HAIP biennale, creating a unified platform that highlights the intersection of visual arts and electronic music. Through exhibitions, performances, and symposiums, the festival encourages the fusion of electronic music and visual arts, promoting dynamic new environments that break traditional conventions. By offering a space for both local and international artists, MFRU continues to push the boundaries of digital and intermedia art while fostering critical discourse on the role of technology in contemporary creative practices.
