Dissonanze is the electronic music and digital art festival of Rome. A festival that experiments with the relationship between creativity and technology whilst researching the unusual connections between sight and sound.

As well as famous artists and successful art works, the festival presents emerging artists, previews, original collaborations and site specific productions, commissioned by Dissonanze for the different and unusual spaces that host the event. "This is our visual music!" is the claim for this edition.

Dissonanze 6, in fact, continues the journey through new declinations and drifts of sound and visual art which, again, will be presented in the architecture of the magnificent Palazzo dei Congressi. The curators’ aim has been to stimulate the artists toward new collaborations and unseen creations, in order to make create within the white marble of the Palazzo, new examples of 'visual music', 'total' shows that distort the normal dimensions of perception, creating a new dialogue between artists and their public.

And everything will happen in the name of experimentation as much as in that of entertainment.
