Cultural Mediation in New Media Spaces

Wednesday,15 August
10:30 am - 12:15 pm
Petree Hall C

New forms of cultural mediation and participation arise in the convergence of Internet and real space. Current trends toward linking cultural archives, creating mixed-reality communication spaces, and "human-centered interaction" for knowledge discovery in networked environments are challenging many assumptions about cultural communication. This panel presents projects and artistic concepts that describe new forms of cultural practice based on advanced-media technology.
