TAIPEI, Sept. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- This article comes from i-News:

Led by media artist and artistic director Chin-Hsiang, Hu, Taiwan's Peppercorns Interactive Media Art will take center stage at two of Europe's major new media art festivals in October 2025: Signal Festival in Prague and RADAR Festival in Bucharest. Peppercorns Interactive Media Art is not only the first Taiwanese team ever to present on Signal Festival's main stage, but also the first Asian media art collective invited to participate in RADAR Festival, marking a significant milestone in Taiwan's presence on the international cultural map. 

• Signal Festival (Prague, Czech Republic｜Oct 16–19)
   As Europe's largest light art festival, Signal Festival attracts over one million visitors annually. Peppercorns Interactive Media Art will present two large-scale immersive works during the festival's main program:
  • Between Mountains and Sea｜Náměstí Republiky
     A 10-meter transparent LED ring structure depicting the flow of mountains, seas, memory, and time. Visitors can move freely within the installation, triggering light and sound.
  • TZOLK'IN LIGHT｜Vltava River
     Inspired by the Mayan calendar, this piece combines water screen projection, lasers, and sound to create a luminous ritual along the Vltava River.

This marks the first-ever appearance of Taiwanese new media art in Signal Festival's main exhibition zone, underscoring the growing international recognition of Taiwan's creative energy.

• RADAR Festival (Bucharest, Romania｜Oct 3–5)
  The largest new media art festival in Romania, RADAR spotlights interactive installations, generative AI, and immersive audiovisual experiences. Peppercorns Interactive Media Art will debut as the first-ever Asian participant with:
  • Memory Encoder
     An AI-driven interactive installation where audience-uploaded images are instantly transformed into generative visuals and projected into an immersive environment. Since its premiere at the 2024 Taoyuan Techno Art Festival, the work has collected nearly 5,000 interactions.

With over 20,000 visitors each year, RADAR Festival marks Peppercorns Interactive Media Art's first entry into Eastern Europe's new media art scene.

• Taiwan's Global Leap in Media Art
  From Prague to Bucharest, Peppercorns Interactive Media Art will bring light, sound, interactivity, and cultural narratives to European audiences, showcasing the diverse and dynamic spirit of Taiwanese media art on the world stage.
