A New Audience for Artists Working in Digital Media In 2013, Australia’s best and brightest digital artists will exhibit an array of exciting new material during the Melbourne Fringe Festival. Filmmakers, animators and video artists have been invited to take our Festival forward into the digital realm by submitting works for inclusion in the Digital Creatures program. Digital Creatures is an open-access program, showcasing the work of cutting edge digital artists and limited only by imagination. Shedding light on how we re-imagine the world around us in digital form, Digital Creatures invites us to meet at the intersection of screen and live experience as the works leap out of the shadows and onto the walls of the Little Creatures Dining Hall. The Digital Creatures program will screen throughout the Festival at Little Creatures Dining Hall, Fitzroy.

In 2013, Fringe Furniture will showcase the realisation of truth through design. Great design makes true a form, a shape or function that already exists somehow; it reveals a truth we aren’t aware of yet. Discovering great design is a revelatory experience, but it’s also a moment of recognition. It’s the sensation you get when the unfamiliar becomes something you’ve always known – call it déjà true. Great design fills the space between the real and the imagined in a way that makes it feel timeless. This year’s Fringe Furniture designers will bring these half-glimpsed truths into sharp focus and make them real. Fringe Furniture 2013 – supported by The Abbotsford Convent The Abbotsford Convent, 18 September – 6 October (Wed – Sun, 11am – 5pm)
