| − | + | Established in [[established::2008]] and taking place in the industrial town of Trbovlje, the [[Speculum Artium Festival]] is an annual venture into the field of new media arts and contemporary techno-culture. By delving into territories such as information technology, robotics, bio-mechanics, and virtual reality, it acts as an intermediary between art, technology, and the society. | |
| − | + | A part of the [[Trbovlje, The New Media Setting]] initiative, the festival is organised by [[Delavski dom Trbovlje Cultural Centre]]. As of 2010 it runs a special sub-programme – the video art festival ''DigitalBigScreen''. | |

In his text titled the ''The Post-Media Condition'' (2005, see link bellow) he writes about the nature of the "relationship between art and politics which can be expressed as the speculum artium, or the mirror of art". In line with Weibel's theory, the festival sees new media technologies as potentially highly emancipatory spheres. | ||

| + | Speculum Artium presents not only various new-media productions but also strives to establish a critical reflection of the contemporary society, of its political and technological conditions. | ||
