-------------------------------------------------------------

1. From "Art on the Net" to the new "Project netarts.org"
 
>From 1995 to 2003, The Machida City Museum of Graphic Arts hosted the "
Art on the Net" project promoting the Internet as a space for artistic 
expression. For nine years, this project had been calling on artists 
around the world to investigate the relationship between Art, the 
Internet and the Society. 

After the years of the "Art on the Net," we launched a new event called 
the "Project netarts.org" last summer. The " Project netarts.org" 
consists of an Internet Art exhibition, artist essays, theoretical 
articles, and an online forum. 

The Exhibition section of the project will feature recent developments 
in Internet Art and is open to all forms of creative expression that use

the Internet as their primary medium. The essays and articles from 
artists, critics, curators and other contributors, will be featured in 
the Writings section. The Online Forum is open to everyone who is 
interested in Internet Art and other hybridized forms of Digital or 
Media Art that use network technologies.

Although this project is primarily focused on the latest developments in

the field of Internet Art, we are also very interested in considering 
contributions that reflect the influence of Internet Art production on 
the wider fields of Media-Art, Digital Art, curatorial practice, digital

pedagogy, and online publishing.
