MOME also featured at the INOTA Festival, one of the most exciting events of the summer

Date: 2023.09.07
Summer came to an end with a truly unique event held in the buildings of the Inota Thermal Power Plant in Várpalota. The INOTA - Audiovisual Festival at the power plant event series had several MOME affiliations, as collected below.

The first INOTA Festival took place between 31 August and 3 September as part of the Veszprém-Balaton 2023 European Capital of Culture programme. It was mostly the unique location – the three iconic cooling towers of the inoperational Inota Thermal Power Plant – that made the event a must-see, though the musical acts were at least as exciting. 

In addition to the lineup, the visual effects were a major focus with light installations, mappings and other contemporary visual artworks, including VACUUM II, a spatial installation by former MOME Media Design student Besnyő Dániel created together with two of his fellow artists, the diploma project by Fanni Hegyi who graduated from the Architecture BA in 2020, and FOR. 

X NIMOVA PROJECT, an experimental musical project by Ábris Gryllus, who graduated from the Graphic Design MA, and is currently studying at the MOME Doctoral School. 

The organisers of the grand event series were supported by graduates of the Art and Design Management MA class of 2023 Ábel Djogni and Apollónia Molnár, and current students of the Art and Design Management MA programme Bianka Faddi and Lilla Turjányi.

The MOME 2025 graduation visual identity is now complete, offering a visual representation of community-driven future building. At MOME, it’s tradition for the visual identity of the diploma events – from graphic design to the portrait photography of BA and MA graduates – to be designed by students themselves, with the concept chosen through a competition judged by a panel of university staff. The annually revamped visual identity serves as a visual snapshot of its time.

For the first time, the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design (MOME) is taking part in the Budapest100 event series, which in 2025 will raise awareness about the importance of urban green spaces, gardens, and parks. MOME’s 15,000-square-metre, revitalised campus garden not only serves as a venue but also plays an active role in the festival with its eco-conscious developments and community activities. Budapest100 is an architectural and cultural festival that celebrates communities and the city, bringing neighbours closer together. From 22–25 May 2025, we’ll be focusing on urban green spaces, courtyards, gardens, and green corridors, along with the communities who nurture them.
