Peam2003 is an international festival of contemporary electronic-based art, coordinated in Pescara City, centre-east of Italy.

The meeting is organised by Artificialia.

The Peam is a "Festival" (music) and, at the same time, an "Exhibition" or "Biennale" (visual arts). Because of that, we decided use the term "Meeting". Indeed, in electronic arts (that are multimedia in most cases) such a differentation is obsolete. Further, the word "Meeting" well depicts the spirit of the event that is meant to be aggregative, non-competitive and includes workshops and interviews.


Main subject of the meeting is "Electronics in Art and Art in Electronics". The focus is on the new interaction of electronics and human in art and culture.

Highlighted Concepts:

  • Autonomous Electronic Based Artifacts, Electronics in place of the artist
  • Interactive Electronic Based Artifacts, Electronics as Artist's co-author
  • Electronics as Art and Art as Electronics
Categories of accepted works:
  • Videos and Animations
  • Music and Sound
  • Software, multimedia and similar
  • Electronics based Sculptures
  • Electronics based Installations
All media electronics art works without genre limitations are accepted:
  • Video-art, VJ's, Visualizers and interactive videos;
  • Interactive electronic music and sound;
  • Multimedia installations;
  • Net-art and web-art;
  • Software art;
  • Graphical and 3D experiments;
  • Robotics Art and Electronic Sculptures
  • New electronics based art concepts and similar.
Accepted works are automatically published on the festival web site and, later, will be published on a CD-ROM.

Peam2003 is not a competition but, on the opposite, is organised with the purpose of eliciting the meeting and the cooperation between electronic artists.

Each category has its own curator who controls work submission and does preliminary assessment. Such a selection will be done in order to garantee both quality and coherence, within the overall event.
