>
> Press Release, March 29, 2004
> NEW MEDIA MEETS ART, SCIENCE, RESEARCH AND POP CULTURE IN NORDIC
> CAPITALS
>
> The biggest ever media culture event, ISEA2004, will be held this
> August
> (14th-22nd) in three Baltic cities: Helsinki, Tallinn and Mariehamn.
> The
> symposium on electronic arts and research brings together top
> professionals
> and large audiences interested in experiencing new media culture in
> all its
> forms. More than 300 artists and scholars have been selected to display
> their work during the event. ISEA2004 participants from all over the
> world
> get to experience the latest vibes of new media by joining the Baltic
> cruises, exhibitions, seminars, clubs, live performances and concerts.
> Many
> events are also interfaced via television, radio, broadband Internet,
> and
> mobile networks making them available to the widest possible audience.
> Electronic music, arts, design, research and technology have never been
> intertwined on this scale before.
>
> The leading international ISEA symposium for electronic arts and
> research
> is held for the 12th time, but for the first time an event of this
> scale is
> being organised between several harbour cities and a cruiser ferry
> connecting them across the sea. ISEA2004 will unite 1400 media
> research and
> production professionals, and appeal to approximately 200 000 visitors
> to
> exhibitions, live events and public projects, and thousands of people
> at
> concerts and performances.
>
> One of the biggest attractions during the event will be Silja Opera
> ferry
> that connects Helsinki, Stockholm, Mariehamn and Tallinn by electrified
> Baltic cruises. The first part of the journey from Helsinki to
> Stockholm
> will be organised in collaboration with Koneisto festival on electronic
> music. As a result the ship becomes the most exciting electronic music
> and
> arts venue in the world! The cruiser then turns into a nomadic research
> laboratory and sails on to Mariehamn and Tallinn with floating
> workshops,
> networking sessions, round table lunches and discussions.
>
> OFFICIAL PATRONS: PRESIDENT TARJA HALONEN AND UNESCO
>
> ISEA2004 is happy to announce the patron of the event, President of the

> incorporation
> of arts into the society, president Halonen is ideal patron for
> ISEA2004.
>
> United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
> (UNESCO)
> is the international patron of the symposium. This year, UNESCO has
> decided
