Digital Art in a Limestone Mine.
Photos from the MINE festival.

The new Danish digital art festival, MINE took place November 5-6, 2005. The project grew out of a cooperation between Aalborg University, the municipality of Stoevring, AM Production, AV Center-Aalborg and Stoevring Hoejskole. These participants form the digital art forum 'one/o' (www.oneo.dk). Thomas Petersen of Artificial assisted in the curating process.

The exhibition mainly took place in the Thingbaek limestone mines (Thingbaek kalkminer). The participating artists were a mix of local artists from the area, other Danish as well as international artists working with digital art. Here are some pictures from the event. Photos: Thomas Petersen
