The AHA Project started with an exhibition event on media activism at Museo Laboratorio d'arte contemporanea, Rome, Italy. To show the conscious and critical use of technology, it then continued in various European cities with a series of video projections on Activism (political Activism), Hacking (technological Activism) and Artivism (artistic Activism).

All AHA videos can be downloaded from the Website of the New Global Vision collective.
