JavaMuseum -
Forum for Internet Technologies in Contemporary Art
www.javamuseum.org
(JAVA= Joint Advanced Virtual Affairs)

is currently preparing
a new feature in the framework of
2nd of Java Series
focussed on Netart coming from Canada.
>>
Canada does not represent only one of the largest countries of the globe,
but has also two identities in form of two cultural roots manifested in its
bi-linguality English-French.
It is further an immigration country which becomes a home of many people
originating from different countries and cultures.

It represents further an interesting aspect that in Canada the artistic use
of New Media is widely encouraged on an offical and privat level. Some
important international New Media events and initiatives based in Canada
underline this impression.

These are some aspects why it can be of interest to focus on New Media art
from Canada in a special feature.
<<
JavaMuseum would like to invite
all artists with residence in Canada working with Internet related media
to participate in this feature of NetArt from Canada.

The feature will go online in Spring 2003.
<<
Each artist can submit up to three works (URLs), please no works as files
attached.

Please use this entry form for participating and send it to
