People can say that they are in a digital age. Digital cameras, laptop computers and flash disk you all use. Digital art can not only be a way to express your mind, but also a way to define your life. The coming Beijing Summer Digital Entertainment Jam will take you on a tour where you can witness the amazement of digital art.

If you love video game and you are interested in digital art, the Beijing Summer Digital Entertainment Jam can be a gourmet meal for you. Lasting from July 5 to August 10, you will have the chance to enjoy a series of lectures, workshops on digital arts, and a whole bunch of new games will be waiting for you to experience.

Ding Zhaochen is a university teacher. He thinks the pervasive game is the spotlight of the digital entertainment festival. "The pervasive game interests me the most. It's a game played via a cellphone. The most exciting part is that you will be playing the game with many strangers in the real scene, not the traditional video game. For example, to proceed to the next level, you should find the place in a picture given by the game planners and take a picture of it, send the picture to the terminal, then get some award."

Jin Xin, a senior student who just graduated from the Beijing Institute of Clothing Technology shows me his works, he thinks that digital media is a platform which can show his understanding of life. "Our four years of university life is like a manufacturing process. After graduation, we are products. I recorded a piece of short video clip for each of my 40 classmates, showing them their 'true self.' I also made a barcode for each one of them. Inserting their card, people can see them, and pick their favorite video clip. Isn't this like choosing product in the supermarket?"

Kenneth Fields teaches digital music at the Central Conservatory of Music. He says that such exchange events can be good incentives for the students to better their academic learning. "If they know what they are doing is for good purpose, it's for the real world, not just homework, then they are going to get a more professional perspective on what they do. If it's just within the school, they just do it for a grade, and what they put in for that piece - that composition is not so deep."

Zeng Beiwei is the publisher of a professional digital magazine. He emphasizes that protecting intellectual property rights is of great importance in boosting the industry. "Many Chinese students are talented, but pirating can seriously affect their enthusiasm. So, in our magazine, we will offer a direct link to the designer's works. I don't think any designer can make a living if nobody pays attention to the protection of intellectual property rights."
