The Brighton Digital Festival (www.brightondigitalfestival.co.uk) heralds a month of events showcasing the city as a centre of digital excellence. Featuring groundbreaking work from a mixture of award winning companies and individuals, festival activities include an animation workshop, digital film events, a portfolio clinic for students and freelancers, and an interactive art installation.

Jointly organised by Wired Sussex, Fabrica and Sussex Community Internet Project (SCIP), the month-long festival is designed to reflect every element of Brighton's digital community from those developing generative art through to interactive designers and technologists.

Brighton's progressive digital scene

Talking about the Digital Festival, Tony Miller, director of cultural services at Brighton & Hove City Council commented: "Brighton and Hove has a diverse and expanding digital community. The festival is an excellent occasion for individuals and organisations to broaden the audience for their work. It is also a great opportunity to illustrate how the city has progressed in terms of the fusion of art, community and innovation. The activities scheduled provide a comprehensive and inclusive Digital Festival with something for everyone."

The Digital Festival will also host the 2005 Brighton & Hove Web Awards, supported by Brighton and Hove's community search engine www.p2b.net. The Web Awards provide an excellent opportunity to highlight the most popular sites across the city and the highly skilled people who produce them. Previously short-listed company, Futurlab, has been responsible for the brand and web development for the Brighton Digital Festival.
