"The technology of the modern media has produced new possibilities of interaction. (…)
What is needed is a wider view encompassing the coming rewards in the context of
the treasures left us by the past experiences, possessions and insights."

Mission -
Conference series on the Histories of Media Art, Science and Technology

 

Recognizing the increasing significance of media art for our culture, this conference series on the Histories of Media Art will discuss for the first time the history of media art within the interdisciplinary and intercultural contexts of the histories of art. Numerous individuals and institutions collaborate to produce the international art history conference series covering art and new media, art and technology, art-science interaction, and the history of media as pertinent to contemporary art.
