Digital Art & Literature Athens Digital Art Festival (ADAF)

As a Major Sponsor of Technopolis City of Athens, COSMOTE TELEKOM continues to forge new paths at the intersection of Art and Technology, presenting its own Art/Tech Corner at the 1 st Athens International Literature Festival.

Visitors will have the opportunity to experience an innovative literary universe, where words and stories come alive through immersive, interactive, and multisensory journeys. The Art/Tech Corner hosts two unique works of digital art and literature that allow literature to escape the page and become a digital experience, curated by the Athens Digital Arts Festival (ADAF).

Words, stories, movement, and interaction invite the audience to “read” with their body, gaze, and touch. Invading Space Characters by Vera Sebert is a game where poetic prose about memory loss slowly moves across the screen while the viewer/player destroys characters one by one with a click, opening gaps within the poem itself. As the letters disappear, reading becomes fragile and the text is deconstructed right before our eyes, like memory gradually fading. Acqua Alta by Adrien M and Claire B is a book brought to life through augmented reality.

Ink drawings and foldable paper transform into an intimate dance performance. A mundane story is disrupted by a strange flood of ink, transforming a simple narrative into a dreamscape.
