The VIV represents the research of a small group of artists and other interdisciplinary consultants with a shared interest in certain synaestasian arrangements to promote progress in A/V studies and other forms of communication. From the earliest activities of the past, the majority of this work has been kept private with only a few exceptions concerning stimulatory demonstrations intended for a greater number of recipients. Based on recent collaborations the VIV will follow a more exposed trajectory. Nevertheless, most of the members & participants will remain undisclosed for various reasons.
