Los Festivales Europeos de Arte Digital (DAF, Digital Arts Festivals) son uno de los formatos situados y experiencias de representación de debate, difusión, exposición y práctica artística en torno a la intersección ciencia-arte-tecnología más en auge. Desde Ars Electronica o Transmediale y CTM en Berlín hasta el Sónar español, L.E.V. o MIRA, en las últimas décadas han aparecido más de cincuenta Festivales de Arte Digital en Europa. Aunque el paradigma de la «festivalización de la cultura» ha recibido mucha atención académica, los DAF se han analizado mínimamente. ¿Qué son los festivales de arte digital? ¿En qué se diferencian de otros festivales? ¿Cómo podemos definir, categorizar y analizar estos festivales en profundidad para comprender su papel en la producción cultural y la creación artística hoy en día? Para abordar estas preguntas, este artículo presenta los primeros resultados de un estudio empírico que comenzó a finales de 2020 y sigue en curso y que se refiere al paradigma de los Festivales de Arte Digital en Europa. Basándome en una investigación cualitativa, multicéntrica y de amplio alcance, y habiendo generado una lista de más de cincuenta DAF en Europa y realizado una primera ronda de entrevistas en profundidad semiestructuradas con diez directores de festivales, introduzco una definición inicial de Festivales de Arte Digital. Basándome en tres estudios de caso del sur de Europa: el festival Semibreve en Braga, el festival MIRA en Barcelona y el festival ROBOT en Bolonia, presento un aparato teórico y un enfoque analítico en diálogo con el concepto de festivalscape, que nos permite ampliar el estudio de los festivales de arte digital, especialmente a partir de las herramientas de la sociología cultural.
