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?

A stunning video illustrating the evolution of starspots over time on the surface of red giant XX Trianguli (XX Tri) has been produced by data scientists Ádám Radványi and Viktor Varga of the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design (MOME). Based on 16 years of observations, researchers from the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) and the Astronomy Institute of the HUN-REN Research Centre for Astronomy and Earth Sciences reconstructed the changes in the cooler regions of the star’s surface, known as starspots. The MOME team translated these findings into an engaging data visualisation animation, making this complex phenomenon accessible to a broader audience.

This is one of the questions explored by the Zenctuary VR+ project, led by Ágnes Karolina Bakk PhD within the FutureCare Lab at MOME, which has secured nearly 1 million euros in funding through the HU-rizont grant programme of the National Research, Development, and Innovation Office. Developed for healthcare facilities, this virtual natural environment aims to serve both rehabilitative and diagnostic purposes, improving patient care and the quality of life for the elderly, promoting recovery, and reducing the workload of healthcare professionals.
