Among the ITS Contest 2014 jurors are Consuelo Castiglioni (MARNI), photographer Nick Knight, footwear designer Nicholas Kirkwood and popstar Mika (for the newly launched ITS ARTWORK contest). The event sees an unprecedented success on social networks, becoming the 9th global trending topic on July 12th 2014, the final evening of the event. It receives features by CNN and France 2. The concept defining the edition is "Lucid Dreams", carrying contestants and guests into the surreal world of dreams rubbing shoulders with reality.
ITS 2014 will transport you into the world of LUCID DREAMS, balanced between dream and awareness. Prepare to learn how to fly, confront your fears, or even encounter yourself. The only thing to be careful about is not waking up. Initially used in a scientific context by psychiatrists and psychologists, and later spread among creatives, oneironautics enables the voluntary exploration of dreams and their conscious modification at will. ITS adopts it as the communication concept of this edition, inviting everyone to navigate their own dreamlike imagination, overcome fears, and affirm their will.
