AND Festival

Abandon Normal Devices (AND) is a nomadic commissioner and born-digital producer unafraid to enter new territories and broker new partnerships.

We propose a significant shift in the way that art is experienced through staging projects that spill out of the gallery and into the ‘street’. Our portfolio includes the UK’s only roaming biennial, which takes place in a new location every two years and an annual commissioning programme, which can take the form of public art, site specific film happenings and cross platform productions.

Bypassing traditional formats and disciplines, our projects are essential and urgent guides to understanding the dynamic and ongoing relationship between audiences, art and technology, often providing multiple, disruptive,  and profoundly different worlds to exist in.

With a distinct emphasis on creative enquiry and provocation, our commissions foster a richer and more critical digital culture, offering complex and global perspectives
