Uniting all artists who plug in, The Festival Of The Electronic Arts features an array
of art forms from music to visual art to dance to lectures. The festival has grown
and blossomed since its inauguration in 2007 with foreigners now making up a ma-
jority of the participants. This year the festival welcomes Canadian Jean-Pierre Mot
who is going to dress up in Christmas lights and run like a shooting star. “Using the
lights emanating from the dock as a metaphor of the galaxy,” Jean says, “I invite by
passers to make their wish as a I run, engulfed in a trail of lights, in front of them.
It is through that performance that I hope to bring good fortunes to the spectators
by embodying a shooting star.” Now that’s a stellar idea! There are also a number of
other clever acts you don’t want to miss. For instance, if you’ve ever wondered what
π sounds like, be sure to stop by Clarence Barlow’s sound installation on Sunday at
Iceland Academy of the Arts. Visit www.raflost.is for the full schedule of events. AA
