The IX edition of LPM will take place at MACRO TESTACCIO, Contemporary Art Museum in Rome from 31st May to 3rd June 2012.
LPM, Live Performers Meeting is considered to be the most important international meeting of live video performers, visual artists and VJs.
Conceived as a place of dialogue, discussion and sharing of ideas and information among artists from around the world, LPM promotes and supports intercultural dialogue and transnational mobility of artists, experts and passionates. LPM encourages research, experimentation, encounter among different forms of artistic expression, interaction among multiple techniques and technologies, digital and analogue, software or hardware.
LPM supports the circulation of art works, projects and cutting-edge products, by means of presentation and production of live video performances, workshops and showcases. LPM is part of a network whose activities aim to enhance and promote the culture of vjing worldwide.
LPM was founded in 2004, within the FLxER project. FLxER is a free software for real time audio and video mixing, designed and developed by Flyer Communication, but most importantly, FLxER is an on-line community of over 18,000 VJs and video artists sharing the same passion for live video, with more than 8.000 shared video files, resources and performances.
Artists working with new technologies for live video are accustomed to ‘meet’, communicate and interact mostly through virtual networks; LPM seeks to provide a crucial opportunity for true dialogue and exchange among the practitioners in this field in the real world, offering an ad hoc venue and a rich and inspiring event. Last, but not least, LPM offers a programme of performances including a broad selection of national and international artists, providing our audience with a unique chance to experience the works of artists worldwide.
