[1] *EXHIBITION*
Young medial art, media- art and conceptional art from eastern and western

Vienna, presented by the well known slovenian curator Dunja Kukovec.

accepted works are
* interactive works
* installation
* web art
* CD/DVD
* Video
or any other kind of related digital works.

Artistic work selected for inclusion in the exhibition will be presented to 
an international
audience of peers, critics, producers, academics, local industry
partners and the broader public.

[2] *SYMPOSIUM*
Parallel to the exhibition there will be a complementary, theoretical as 
well as interactive line-up.
It should help to decode and reflect upon the ways of origination and
the perception of various artists and art groups, who either are or have
been active in the aforementioned fields.

Speeches, artists or artist-group presentations, presentations of 
organizations or
demonstrations of digital work will be accepted.

[3] *WORKSHOPS*
Several workshops will take place during Coded Cultures. These will picture 
the tools
and methods of digital art and progressvive projects.

Workshops in the field of digital art and tools for the production of 
digital content, as
well as the topic of distributing art will be accepted.

Artistic work is coded on behalf of different cultural backgrounds, 
cultural connotations
and (visual) symbolism. These codes will be pointed out and compared.
The aim is to make the "art of the new media" apprehend- and
experiencable. Apart from the technical approach, narrative elements,
interaction and transparency are of importace to the viewer. The term of
"digital art" will be discussed- the ways of creation, perception,
aesthetics and norms will be reflected upon and decoded. Artists and the
interested audience shall be brought together in the open forum Coded
Cultures: the contemporary situation of digital forms of expression is
to be illustrated, new ways and possibilities in these disciplines to be
found and the discussion about digital art shall be stimulated.
