In 2022, the fourteenth festival of new media culture Speculum Artium again mixes the discoveries of the past, the happenings of the present and the vision of the remote future. Most of the festival installations are, with the help of technological experimentations, returning to nature and natural processes of thinking, while focusing on the simple processes of life. The program of the festival is composed of interactive projects of Slovenian and foreign authors who, at its core, are approaching the thinking of the little man, content wise. Every project is a story unto itself, and every project is a part of the whole, wrapped in the intermixing of art – technology and science – the economy – tourism. 

The growth of web and digital contents in all sectors and all spheres of activity, have in the last few years connected the civil society and the academic world; the public sector and the economy. The festival Speculum Artium reflects those changes and connections and is trying to incorporate them into the vision of the working of Delavski dom Trbovlje. For some time Trbovlje has been paving its new media vision. Throughout the year, the working of the institution is upgrading the contents of the Speculum Artium festival, which represents the peak of such activity in the city. Its image is partially also formed by cooperation and active inclusion of the local community. The values of the festival are becoming the values of the city.  An independent part is, for the 12th time in a row the international video art festival DigitalBigScreen, which along with videos, is also bringing works of art in the virtual world chosen by a public tender. A large portion of the activities are contributed by the accompanying programme, which includes lectures, performances, workshops for children and youth, discussion panels and guided tours through the exhibition.
