The Australian International Video Festival is the premier celebration of the electronic arts in Australia. It is also an important opportunity to view diverse representations of stylistic, technological and political concerns of some of the leading video makers from around the world. Refiguring The Media Image is an exhibition which includes installations produced with the use of video, computer and photographic technologies. Along with these video installation/displays are an extensive and unique series of curated screening programs and artists presentations that embody a vital and provocative mode of cultural identity ... the Television image. Refiguring The Media Image is an important step towards a broader understanding of the new technological arts within the AIVF format, as well as a unique international survey of video/media art projects from around the world which explore one of the fundamentally important phenomena of this century
