The EMAF is one of the most influential forums of international Media Art. As an international meeting point for artists, curators, lenders, gallery owners and an audience of specialists, the festival has had a profound impact on the topic and aesthetics of Media Art for more than two decades.

In 2009, the festival will explore the areas of long-term archival storage and the public options for use of Media Art. The exhibition entitled Image Battles refers to the connection between technological progress and the transformation of the images of war using current Media Art and historical exhibits.
