KERNEL FESTIVAL /012: SELECTION TIME
Closed the calls for international participation

More than 200 young artists from over 40 countries, participated in the contest to take part in the next edition of the Kernel Festival /012.
From June 29th to July 1st, the charming Villa Tittoni Traversi in Desio, a neoclassical masterpiece of architect Piermarini, will welcome again emerging talents from all over the world, in the fields of Interactive & Digital Art, Audiovisual Mapping, Electronic Music and Temporary Architecture.
The Selection Committees composed of renowned journalists, architects, critics, professors and artists, are now evaluating the projects received, to determine the names of the winners that will be announced on May 25th.

Among the expected novelties of this coming edition, the Sound Park, set in the wonderful natural environment of Villa Tittoni's park, will exhibit installations created by students of some of the most prestigious international music academies, creating a path that will accompany visitors in an evocative sound, visual and perceptual scenary. Among the Academies involved: Conservatorio di Como, IED-Istituto Europeo di Design in Milan, Microfusa in Barcelona, NABA-Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti in Milan with NABASound and SAIC-School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

To strengthen the link with the territory and its younger inhabitants, the Kernel Festival, together with Città di Desio, has promoted ChromaKids, an initiative that involved children of primary and secondary schools in Desio, in a series of laboratories on the Green Screen technique, widely used in film and television. Children took so part in the creation of short films that will be presented to the public during the days of the Festival.

The Kernel Festival, at its second edition, expands its already extensive programming with a calendar full of events and not-to-be-missed news. While waiting for the official program, we expect the results of the selections on May 25th, which will determine the first participants in the Festival.
