OFFF is a cutting-edge festival exploring the latest in digital aesthetics and software language. OFFF festival brings together the artists that are breaking ground and shaping new standards in media and design, becoming the essential meeting point for the international scene of digital creation. OFFF is the only event of this kind.
Since 2001, OFFF festival has been held in Barcelona- Spain, becoming the globally recognized and trendsetting event it is today. This November 2007, OFFF festival will also be held in New York City, at the Tribeca Performing Arts Center.
The three-day festival showcases top digital artists, web, print and interactive designers, motion graphics studios, and new music adventurous. OFFF festival provides insight into all culture media platforms. OFFF dreams about the digital future, and then writes the code for it.
Over 60 international artists meet at OFFF festival. They include legends of graphic design and visual communication such as Neville Brody, Stefan Sagmeister, Tomato and Kyle Cooper; recognized software artists such as Jared Tarbell, and Daniel Brown; explorers of advanced interaction like James Paterson & Amit Pitaru, John Maeda and Craig Swann; innovators of the moving image like We Work For Them, Motion Theory, Buck and Renascent; and the most important names that have defined the aesthetics of the experimental and creative side of the Web: Joshua Davis, Yugo Nakamura, Josh Ulm, Hillman Curtis and Erik Natzke.
These artists come to OFFF not only to share their latest works and techniques, but also to artistically explore in this limit-free environment. OFFF is more than a design conference, a multimedia trade fair, and a digital animation festival -- OFFF is three days for artists to play, work, enjoy, and experiment. They do so while mingling with the audience; thus creating the unique and indescribable gathering that makes OFFF what it is.

Standing on the River Thames in the south east of the island of Great Britain, London has been a major settlement for two millennia. It was founded by the Romans, who named it Londinium. London's ancient core, the City of London, largely retains its 1.12-square-mile medieval boundaries. Since at least the 19th century, "London" has also referred to the metropolis around this core, historically split between Middlesex, Essex, Surrey, Kent, and Hertfordshire, which today largely makes up Greater London, a region governed by the Mayor of London and the London Assembly.
London has a diverse range of people and cultures, and more than 300 languages are spoken in the region. Its estimated mid-2016 municipal population (corresponding to Greater London) was 8,787,892, the largest of any city in the European Union (as of 2017), and accounting for 13.4% of the UK population. London's urban area is the second most populous in the EU, after Paris, with 9,787,426 inhabitants at the 2011 census. The city's metropolitan area is the most populous in the EU with 13,879,757 inhabitants, while the Greater London Authority states the population of the city-region (covering a large part of the south east) as 22.7 million. London was the world's most populous city from around 1831 to 1925.
