[Otto]

transmediale.04 explores the utopian potential of contemporary art practice
in the field of digital culture. the festival focuses on art made by means
of digital technologies, and on art that reflects on the social, cultural
and aesthetic dimensions of new technologies. tm.04 tests the utopias
associated with these technologies and explores artistic responses to the
utopias and dystopias of the information age. The festival remains suspended
between the promise of hope, and the resignation that there is no hope. Fly
Utopia! is thus both a call for justified optimism, and a call for
overcoming pessimism in the face of contemporary utopias, or the absence
thereof.
