International VJ Conference and Visuals Festival

www.avit.us

AVIT was created by a core of the community at VJCentral.com with an objective
to develop a tradition for
annual Audio-Visual Conferences and VJ Summits around the world. VJCentral
(www.vjcentral.com) and VJForums
(www.vjforums.com) create a central platform where visual artists from around
the world can come to share their
knowledge.

AVIT Events have sprung up all over the world since it was founded in 2002, and
the movement is gathering
momentum. With planning for AVIT UK 2004 and AVIT North America 2004 underway,
other communities in France, New
Zealand and Japan have become interested in holding their own events. AVIT will
provide support to artists and
developers to become in touch with their local and worldwide communities and
help develop audio/visual arts
into an even more diverse and vibrant community. AVIT is an acronym for
Audio-Visualize it.
