   _____________________________________________
   AltArt Foundation, with support from the European Cultural Foundation,
   organises the workshop Terrra Incognita. Tell Your story! which will
   take
   place in Cluj, Romania from 27th of October till 2nd of November 2003.
   The Terra Incognita project series is committed to the discovery of
   new
   territories in cyberspace, by developing Internet content about
   socially,
   politically, ideologically or geographically isolated cultures - ones
   net-citizens aren't aware of. Terra Incognita 1 took place in 2000,
   and
   explored the cultures and civilization of Turkey, Iran, Pakistan,
   India and
   Nepal. Terra Incognita 2, within a computer game-like framework
   targeted
   towards the general public- took place in 2001, taking a community of
   over
   5000 members to various objectives in Cuba and Jamaica.
   Terra Incognita Tell Your story!  project focuses on exploring the
   diversity
   of the urban environment. The workshop will bring together new media
   artists
   from different countries in Europe. During the one-week workshop the
   participants will explore the urban landscape in Cluj, meet people and
   learn
   about their stories and then re-tell these stories using different new
   media
   art forms - short films, animations, photographs, hypertext, and audio
   sequences.
