Intima Virtual Base – Institute for Contemporary Arts was established in 1996 by intermedia artist Igor Štromajer and serves mostly as a platform for his projects in which he as a rule collaborates with many partners – individuals such as Brane Zorman of Cona Institute and Annie Abrahams as well as institutions such as Aksioma Institute to name a few. Intima Virtual Base alias Štromajer works mostly on Internet-based art projects, interactive installations, technology-related artworks, video, sound and radio projects, and conceptual contemporary performing arts. Intima researches tactical emotion states, intimate guerilla tactics, and traumatic low-technology strategies.

Igor Štromajer, who graduated from the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television (AGRFT), has shown his work at more than 100 exhibitions and festivals in 50 countries and received a number of international awards.

Beside the both main Slovene institutions for contemporary arts, the Moderna galerija in Ljubljana and the Maribor Art Gallery, his works are included in the permanent collections of the Centre Georges Pompidou (Paris), the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia (Madrid), and the Computerfinearts Collection (New York). As an artist-in-residence he has lectured at universities and contemporary arts institutes in Europe, the USA, and Canada.
