Novi Sad, Serbia
Hosted by kuda.org, Novi Sad in collaboration with V2_Institute for the
Unstable Media, Rotterdam

************************************************************************

On May 1, 2004 the European Union will expand beyond its current 'core
Europe' constellation to include, for the first time, nations of the
former Eastern and Non-Aligned Blocks. Through a two-day electronic media
arts and culture gathering in and around the city of Novi Sad (Serbia),
not far beyond the European Union's new transnational edge, the
Trans_European Picnic will bring together artists, theoreticians and media
practitioners from across Europe.

Through workshops, debates, open projects, performances and screenings,
the Picnic will explore the changing cultural and artistic landscape
within and beyond this new conglomerate of competing cultures, economies
and identities.
