The pictoplasma conference site has attracted quite some traffic since its offical launch a few weeks ago and we want to thank everyone who's helping us spread the word!

Whilst we're still holding back the detailed programme until next month, we can safely announce a few brand new, additional highlights: Pete Fowler has been working on an animation series with Passion Pictures, that we are hoping to get an exclusive glimpse of.
And secondly, Miss Van will be providing insight into her Street Art of overwhelmingly voluptuous female characters with eye-popping powers of seduction.

Also, we now can garantee for sure that the accompanying picto-parties have all the ingredients to lift you to a higher level.
Kinya Hanada aka mumbleboy will take you by the hand and guide you through a strangely colourful, mind-boggling and psychadelic VJ session you'll never forget

Of course you also won't want to miss the gigantic pixel portrait by Gob Squad, consisting of hundreds of rare, medium and burnt slices of toast, nailed neatly to the wall. Not to mention the analog-real-time-overhead-projector-battle between Neasden Control Centre and Boris Hoppek!

To ensure that the conference visitors can squeeze in a petit power nap between the all-night parties and early morning cinema screenings, we've asked Rinzen to host a workshop called "turn a pillow into a friend".
Under the caring wing of the créme de la créme of cuddly plush designers, participants can roll up their sleeves and get to grips with buckets of buttons, oodles of thread, a long line of borrowed sewing machines and all-you-can-eat professional expertise to customize their own, private and ever-faithful bed companion.
