Keynote / Venerable Vectors
Ljubljana / 07.10.18 / 20:00
Chris will present a highly incomplete survey of work taken from throughout this history of vector based image making practices ranging from very early experiments through to modern vernacular and academic projects in order to try and place the current interest in vector based work in a wider historical context and reveal some of the lesser known roots of the art form. After a short talk there will be time for the audience and festival attendees to discuss what they have experience at vector hack and where it might go next.
