“FILE HIPERSONICA, the festival’s sonorous branch, is on it’s 7th
edition and intends to elaborate connections between the world of
images, the world of sonorities and the world of texts. Sound
installations and real time performances will be presented by a number
of groups and collectives, comprising both erudite and pop electronic
music, but also electronic compositions, sound poetry, radio art,
video music and sonic landscapes, as well as Djs and VJs presenting
their sets through specific apparatus and installations with
experimental and immersive projections.”
