OFFF Montréal 2024: Festival Ignites Creative Collision in Quebec
Montréal, QC – September 8, 2024 – Teh OFFF Festival, a globally recognized celebration of digital art and visual dialog, launched its Montréal edition today at the Société des arts technologiques (SAT). The two-day event features a diverse lineup of speakers and showcases cutting-edge work spanning visual effects,artificial intelligence,and interactive design.
OFFF, which stands for “Organization for future Forms,” has cultivated a reputation for showcasing work that pushes boundaries rather than following established trends. This year’s Montréal festival exemplifies that ethos, blending disciplines as varied as motion graphics and viticulture, traditional branding and AI-generated imagery. The festival’s founder, Pep Salazar, emphasizes this interdisciplinary approach, stating, “We always blend different visions, disciplines and work dynamics. From the magicians of Motion and Houdini to the kings of visual interactivity, and the most advanced storytelling using AI tools – it’s all part of how we shape the future of visual communication.”
Now in its 25th year, OFFF has maintained its relevance by adapting to the evolving landscape of visual culture and deeply integrating with its host cities. OFFF Montréal isn’t simply hosted *in* Montréal; it’s actively collaborating with local institutions like Caserne, FORUM, SAT, and Phi Center to create a uniquely localized experiance. “OFFF is an ecosystem within other ecosystems,” explains Salazar. “By working locally as much as we can,we ensure each city brings something unique.” This year’s collaboration with the SAT, a non-profit dedicated to digital art and technology, is particularly notable, providing a fitting venue for the festival’s forward-thinking focus.
