The International Festival of Computer Arts (IFCA; Slovenian: Mednarodni festival računalniških umetnosti, MFRU) is the longest-running computer arts festival in Slovenia. IFCA presents theory and practices of computer arts and new media arts. It is one of the major institutions for the presentation, support and production of computer media, electronics, and interdisciplinary art in the region and is responsible for the development of new media art and theory.




History


The International Festival of Computer Arts (IFCA) was first held in 1995 in Maribor, the second-largest city in Slovenia. The festival presented a number of local and foreign artists, theoreticians, performers, developers and curators.
In 2009, the festival joined forces with Kibla and have held a joint festival in the media arts. Supporters of the festival include the University of Maribor, the Maribor Art Gallery, and Arts Council England.




Course


The IFCA has been held annually for about five days and is organized by the Maribor Youth Culture Centre (MKC Maribor).
The program consists of seminars, conferences, exhibitions and performances selected by invited curators and selectors and by the program director of the festival, who has a three-year mandate.
The festival connects different locations in the town and in neighboring cities – and different urban, regional and international producers, institutions and festivals of similar interests. From its beginnings, it has established cooperation with educational institutions of all levels: from nursery, primary and secondary schools, to colleges and universities with new media programs in Maribor, nationally and internationally.
