TIFF’s fantastic series continues its stellar programming of the latest and greatest music videos, commercials and short-form cinema with an evening on February 15th that is so positively Nexus-y, the word Nexus even appears in one of the showcased titles.

Dubbed “Engaging with Interactivity”, the programme shines the spot-light on how contemporary filmmakers are innovatively incorporating interactivity paradigms and technology into their productions – from creating story worlds, to applying gaming mechanics or using geo-location tech.

And as a bonus, award-winning producer of digital and interactive content, James Milward of Secret Location agency, will be in attendance to contextualize the fantastic roster of shorts with a discussion on current trends in interactive media and beyond.

Bjork “Biophilia” – music video app
Androp “Bell” – music video game
Rome “3 Dreams of Black” – interactive music video
