    The third installment of one of North America’s youngest non-profit new media festivals is just over a month away. Boulder, Colarado’s Communikey Festival of Electronic Arts will land on Earth Day weekend (April 15th - 18th) with an expanded focus on sustainability and an even more distinct vision than we’ve previously seen.

    As one of the more demonstrated I.C.A.S members, Communikey has worked effortlessly to bridge the cultural gap by utilizing international partnerships to make a stronger impact on their local community. CMKY’s 2010 program will feature collaborative talent from Serbia (Belgrade’s Dis-patch Festival), Poland, Canada, Mexico, and around the United States.

    Luke Hess will make his Colorado debut alongside arists like Attentat, Derek Plaslaiko, White Rainbow, Stephen Beaupre, Stephen Hitchell (Soultek, Variant) and Woo. The program will also feature Mutek inspired A/Visual exhibitions, open air activities and plenty more to be announced soon. Stay current by following Communikey on Twitter.

    With the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games just days away, the city is buzzing with anticipation, eager to get the festivities underway. While plenty local talent will be out in force, the promoters and curators behind CODE (Cultural Olympiad Digital Edition) have organized a number of special exhibitions that is sure to attract international interest.

    Over the next 18 days, CODE Live will roll out a world-class lineup of powerful interactive art and cutting-edge music. Vancouver’s skyline can already be seen basking in Rafael Lozano-Hemmer’s Vectorial Elevation. Originally developed to welcome the year 2000 in Mexico City, 20 automated robotic searchlights light up the downtown core and are conducted by an online audience every 8 seconds. The exhibit launched two days ago and has already received over 175,000 hits. Participate by visiting vectorialvancouver.net

    On Saturday, in association with Emily Carr University of Art + Design, CODE will present a one-day forum (dubbed CODE Dialogues) that will host some of the most renowned national and international artists, curators and thinkers for discussions surrounding the relationships between digital technologies and creative practices today. The music that night will be in the hands of I.C.A.S member New Forms Festival as they host artists like Konrad Black and the Junior Boys with visuals by rising local VJ Electrabelle.

    Surely the most anticipated performances for new media enthusiasts all happen fall on the same night. On February 13th, Montreal and Vancouver will unite as the Society for Arts and Technology, New Forms Festival and MUTEK will all present a night of improvisational electronica featuring The Modern Deep Left Quartet (Mathew Jonson, Colin the Mole, Danuel Tate), Mike Shannon, Jan Jelinek and Hanno Leichtmann.

    Bass enthusiasts will have their fix too as the internationally acclaimed dubstep phenomena Martyn makes his Vancouver debut along side Deadbeat (Wagon Repair) and local producer/musician/curator Michael Red on February 19th. CODE has a created rich lineup showcasing a tastefully diverse amount of talent, with enough scheduled for everyone to explore. To find out more about what’s on visit the CODE Live event listings
