[V2_ <press@v2.nl>]

.
*V2_, organiser of the Dutch Electronic Art Festival, DEAF07 Interact or 
Die!*
presents a lively seminar programme of four condensed days with 
demonstrations, debates and theory rooted in artistic research and 
development (aRt&D). All seminars share the topic of critical exchange 
between different fields, such as the arts, social sciences and 
technical sciences, philosophy and industry. The seminars represent 
theory and practice as intertwined aspects in todayâs creative research 
themes. These mixed format seminars differ from academic seminars by 
including demonstrations and (virtual) performances, and a range of 
critical theory and philosophy. For more information:
