Electric Fields
and Mini-Maker Faire 2012

October 10-14th, 2012

Electric Fields is a festival about play. Artists at play. Technology at play. Everything perched in a state between unknown and known, on the exciting edge of unpredictable, ready to create a new experience for the audience and artist alike.

Over the past 5 editions of Electric Fields the festival has worked to bring new ideas and new artworks to the Ottawa-Gatineau region, and the 2012 edition is no different. Ok, it is different, but in a good way. The Mini-Maker Faire returns bigger and better, and of course new performance works will push the boundaries of creativity and technology, but we have also added a unique symposium this year, connecting the programming of EF2011 to invigorating discussions about perception and the space around you. New collaborations, new experiences, new ideas, new technology - all the ingredients of a great Electric Fields Festival!
