Monoskop examines the social context of historical developments in media arts in Europe (with special focus on Central and Eastern Europe). Its analysis of sociopoetic conditions of art and technology crossings from 1960s to 2000s draws upon the undertakings in experimental and avantgarde film, performance art, computer art, video art, experimental music, sound art, and media theory. http://www.burundi.sk/monoskop/index.php/Media_art_in_Central_and_Eastern_Europe Remake project will consist of the multimedia performances, discussions and collaborative events and will also take place within the framework of Multiplace festival 2011 in participating venues, galleries and public spaces. http://www.remakeme.eu MULTIPLACE Multiplace is a decentralized network of people and organisations interested in interaction between media, technologies, art, culture and society. Network activities culminate every year into the festival, that is happening parallely at several locations in the world. Its program is open to workshops, installations, discussions, concerts, performances, exhibitions, presentations, screenings and especially new forms of creativity. Original focus on the new media culture has been evolving since 2002 and besides the technological aspect of digital media in art, the focus shifted also to questions related to its aesthetical, social, cultural, legal and political issues. The aim of the festival-network Multiplace is to create the fertile ground for media art, to support the creativity in an open and collaborative environment and to encourage critical reflection on the life in the culture shaped by technologies. http://multiplace.org CONTACT For more information about the call, specification of the artwork and proposal submissions please write to: projects at multiplace dot org / or / babuta at 34 dot sk SUBMIT You are welcome to submit your project proposal here: http://www.multiplace.org/2011/ _______________________________________________ nettime-ann mailing list nettime-ann@nettime.org http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-ann
