The Substation/ Artist/​Channels Festival/

CHANNELS, The Australian Video Art Festival is the only festival dedicated to showcasing new contemporary moving image by some of the most exciting Australian and international artists.

In 2017, CHANNELS looks to the future. In dialogue with artists, curators and the community, CHANNELS poses an open question about the future and speculative narratives, which explore histories yet to be established. The theme ‘futures’ is an invitation to artists and collaborators who are experimental and innovative with their medium and ideas, exploring future selves, ideas, movements, politics and technologies.
