The Blended Intensive Program (BIP) on PERFORMING DATA is an Erasmus+ program featuring the partner universities National Academy of Art in Sofia (Bulgaria), Cyprus University of Technology in Limassol (Cyprus), and the University of Arts Linz (Austria). It was established to address issues, challenges and perspectives in a datadriven world. Students and professors of the three institutions engage in regular knowledge transfer sessions throughout the academic year, which culminates in the presentation of their artistic research projects at Ars Electronic Festival 2025.

PERFORMING DATA uses data as material, as a tool, as a topic and/or a critique of our current realities. In particular, the program intends to investigate artistically the fluid, constantly changing potential of data in order to better understand how they influence us and our view of the world in both positive and negative ways.
