Knitted Europe: Nicola Triscott and Rob la Frenais
Knitted Europe will showcase a range of best practice projects that are part of European programs like Culture 2000 and the Information Society Technologies Program (I.S.T.) that promote collaboration between European art institutes and cultural organisations. These consortia will present either work in progress or recently finished projects and share their experiences with the audience. These projects are Realtime and Presence, MIR -- Microgravity Interdisciplinary Research, Code Zebra and Virtual Media Centre. A representative of the European Committee will comment on these programmes and four institutes will then present their projects and discuss the results with the audience. Dutch representatives of the programmes will discuss the chances for European collaboration in the future. Knitted Europe supported by the Goethe Institut Rotterdam.
