Seeing is believing at the Aavistus festival

“This is a project that we have dreamed about for many years,” enthuses artistic director Merle Karp when talking about Aavistus, a festival of audiovisual art and Video Jockey (VJ) culture that celebrates and recognises the skills and talents of VJs globally. Although VJs create their own visual work, produce it and perform it, awareness of VJs among the general public is low, as they often perform their art in ‘underground’ scenes.
