Vancouver's New Forms Media Society is a non-profit society and media arts organization founded in 2000 that nurtures and connects local and international arts, science and grassroots communities through the annual New Forms Festival. Grown from its humble beginnings as a small grassroots media arts festival, NFF is now one of the largest media arts festivals on the West Coast and in Canada.

Since its inception, an integral element of the NFF is the recognition of independent and groundbreaking artists; the NFF aims to showcase and increase awareness of these artists and their work within our community and beyond by promoting them within a larger milieu. The NFF is part of a larger, international, multi-media festival movement, which explores the ever changing and evolving world of art and creates a platform for artistic growth. The society wishes to make new media art, music, film, technology base-based installation and performance accessible to a wider audience.

New Forms' events and partnerships have now extended beyond the festival to include the series of sold-out [DubForms] events featuring the latest evolutions in dubstep and other bass heavy movements as well as long-term projects, such as the upcoming Mobile MUSE3 (for all details visit www.newformsfestival.com or see below).
