In addition to unique installations, the Intermezzo Festival will also feature outdoor DJ sets, indoor concerts and roundtable discussions of the MOME Art and Design Management MA’s Manage (it) Yourself series. 

During the two-day festival, every corner of the House of Music, Hungary will be filled with vibrancy: there will be intriguing discussions, unique installations created by MOME students for this occasion and put on view at the Sound Dome, as well as free and ticketed musical events at the great hall and in the open. The line-up for the opening day will include zïp, Orlando x dom Beats and Jazzbois, and at the outdoor location, DJ sets from ONE-AB and Filipvarial. On the second day, you can enjoy free DJ sets by Galactic Jackson and OIEE, and buy tickets to the concerts of EJTECH (researchers of MOME IC Judit Eszter Kárpáti and Esteban de la Torre), Speiz Boiz, and Óperentzia

Two events in the highly popular Manage (it) Yourself event of the MOME Art and Design Management MA will also be available. The roundtable discussion at 5:15 p.m. on 23 June will focus on the future of the music industry and will explore answers to questions such as what a festival organiser does, how a musician can become a manager and if live music can also be dominated by the digital space. The discussion on the following day, 24 June will revolve around sound design and musical innovations – What is sound like, when it does not come from the speakers? How can a space be turned fully musical? In addition to digital technologies, what other new alternatives are there to create soundscapes, and how can you make music from textile, construction materials or a pair of shoes for that matter?

The University of the Future initiative is a key focus this year, aimed at MOME’s comprehensive revitalisation. Thanks to persistent efforts over recent months, working groups have developed a detailed implementation plan for the University of the Future programme, a.k.a. the “Three Schools model”, which was unanimously accepted in December 2023. The process has now reached a new milestone: on 18 July, the Senate has pledged its support for the plan, paving the way for continued collaborative work to implement the new structure by next winter and to transform MOME into one of Europe's leading design higher education institutions.

Our University has been invited to exhibit at one of the world's most prestigious digital art festivals, the Ars Electronica 2024. Each year, the Campus series of the long-standing festival presents an art university. This year's exhibition is organised in collaboration with the University of Linz, and will feature outstanding student diploma works from recent years in Linz's main square selected by curators Judit Eszter Kárpáti, Esteban de la Torre, and Ágoston Nagy.

A new symbol has been added to the range of memorabilia that members of the MOME community can receive as they reach various milestones in their university careers. This new emblem, which reinforces a sense of belonging, is a turned and machined bronze item with a polished surface based on the letter ‘O’ in MOME’s logo. Designed by MOME MA teacher Krisztián Ádám at the initiative of Rector József Fülöp, this symbol will be awarded to all graduates at all levels along with the diplomas starting in 2024.
