iPad ready !
The Cube Festival is one of the first “iPad Ready” cultural events in France! Touch-screen tablet computers are available to assist you in your visit, loaded with exclusive content on the artists, works and activities programmed during the event. Visitors are also encouraged to interact with the iPads to express how they feel during the visit, and thus to take part in a new kind of visitor’s book.
For creative real-time uses or digital browsing, Le Cube offers the best current applications and enables visitors to generate their own content on the tablet computers thanks to categories such as “Arty”, “Creation”, “digital browsing”, “Cube Kids”, “games” an many other original applications!

My guide is a rabbit !
Since 2007, Le Cube encourages the general public to experiment with various technologies, including communicating objects. For the 4th edition of the Cube Festival, the digital rabbits Karotz (formerly known as Nabaztag) provide a playful and innovative mediation aimed at the younger audiences.
The works shown in the exhibition are grouped together as sketches in a logbook equipped with RFID chips. Young visitors simply need to place one of the pages in front of those digital rabbits for them to start talking and explaining the work, just like a private guide! Here, the artist’s voice, there, ambient noises: a collection of unique digital gems to be discovered all along this magical journey.
In partnership with Mindscape

For students and teachers to familiarise themselves with “digital art today”, the Cube Festival has developed an innovative approach to visiting, playful and participative thanks to touch-screen computers and communicating objects (iPads and multimedia rabbits Karotz). With the help of mediators, students can enjoy a Le Cube that has been fully re-designed for the occasion and discover works that had not previously been shown in France. The Cube Festival also offers to combine this visit with workshops.
