"Video Indisputable" is one of the most active representatives of our contemporary electronic visual culture.

The round table “frontiers of video art” aims to investigate the relationship between video and other recent or emerging image-based artistic expressions like computer animation, data visualisation, realtime and generative graphics or computer games.
