Bonjour, Hallo, Hello, Hoi, Ciao, Hola, Salam,
Konnichiwa, Annyeong Haseyo, [see english version below]
We are glad to announce that the program of the fifth anniversary of the
Panoptica Festival is now complete. This international event will take
place on Saturday 21st October 2006, in Liege (Luik/Luttich), Belgium.
This project was initiated by our non-profit organization Panoptic
in 2002 and since then it is dedicated to the gathering of electronic
music and visuals during one long night full of live acts. Six wide
screens and a good sound system allow visitors to dream, dance, and
live it up.
For its fifth birthday, the festival will welcome several outstanding
artists of the previous editions, and will propose you some nice gifts.
First, we are launching a new project, "Audio Lanes": a music ballad in
five places the city, that will take place the afternoon before the
festival, between 14h and 19h, with:
Tony Di Napoli (Musée d'Art Wallon)
Pierre Gérard (L'Aquilone)
Panoptique (L'Aquilone)
Tat'o (L'An Vert)
Quelques Piétons (L'An Vert)
Ola Simonsson (L'An Vert)
Raphaël Van Lerberghe (Galerie Nadja Vilenne)
Guillaume Mopein (Médiathèque de la Communauté Française)
The party, starting at 20h (8PM) and ending at 6h (6AM), will welcome
artists from several countries. The audio-visual night will start again with
poetic and contemplative climates, and will progressively evolves towards
more dynamic and vivace atmospheres.
Our line-up will again let you discover
quality artists, and in the second part of the night will let you dance:

Vector Lovers [UK]
Kettel vs Secede [NL]
Ultre [UK]

Moreover, like in 2003, we'll offer a free compilation CD to the first
500 visitors. This compilation will contain about 15 tracks from
talented artists from the Liege Province, but also belgian and
international artists.
So, we hope to meet you and your many friends in less than one month,
on Saturday 21st October 2006, in the multiple venues of the Audio Lanes
project during the afternoon (14h-19h), and then at the Salle des Fêtes
de Bressoux-Droixhe, Avenue de Lille s/n, 4020 Liège, Belgique, starting
at 20h/8PM.
