CULT 2001
Exploring an interface between Cultural heritage, Net art and State of the
art projects

Copenhagen, October 3-5, 2001

New Culture and visions of collaborative culture
Old structural barriers have been transgressed on the cultural scene, due to
the digital economy and the new media strategies. New creative models of
collaboration emerge between institutions preserving cultural heritage,
performing arts creating new expressions, and information technology
providing tools of communication.

The interface between Cultural Heritage, Net Art and State of the art
projects is new. It is both innovative, challenging and a critical vehicle
for issues concerning collaboration, communication and dissemination
strategies in modern societies.

CULT  2001
CULT 2001 wishes to establish a platform for discussions and reflections on
these new visions of collaboration and dissemination strategies. Central
keynote speakers from major cultural institutions, as well as international
net artists and computer scientists will provide the basis for this
platform.

A central experience of this conference will be the manifestation of
national and international cultural networks, and national CultureNets that
brings together institutions dealing with Cultural Heritage, Net Art and
State of the Art technology.

CULT 2001 offers an opportunity to reflect on this cultural interface. This
opportunity is aimed widely at international cultural institutions,
organisations for technology and the visual arts, web oriented artists and
curators, as well as already existing national CultureNets.

We invite artists, theorists, the cultural sector, festival organisers and
new media industry people to meet, discuss and reunite within the framework
set by international keynote speakers. There will be plenty of opportunities
to reflect further on the future of this new cultural interface in parallel
sessions and social events during these two days in Copenhagen.
