C h a t t e r B o x

ISEA/Inter-Society for the Electronic Arts is pleased to announce a new=
 project. ChatterBox is a series of moderated discussions on ISEA-Forum, a=
 listserv which is open to both ISEA members and non-members.

The discussions will be on selected and specific topics in the electronic=
 arts; about issues, for instance, such as the intersection of the arts with=
 the fields of technology, science, education, and industry. These=
 conversations will be about creative process, specific art practices, the=
 work of specific artists, art theory, artist centres, educational=
 institutions, research and innovation in the realm of the electronic arts,=
 emerging forms and artists, etc. The possible topics are open and endless.

ISEA launches an open call for potential guest moderators to send us=
 ChatterBox proposals. The guest moderator of each edition of ChatterBox is=
 responsible for finding and obtaining the texts of the 3 or 4 panelists, as=
 well as for writing a short 500 word overview. 

ChatterBox will be a bi-monthly affair beginning this September. The texts=
 could be theory, criticism, personal accounts, or creative writing. The=
 ISEA-Forum public-at-large is invited to intervene, comment, discuss. 

=46uture editions of ChatterBox include: cyberspace and architecture; dance,=
 technology, and the body; and new media art in Eastern Europe.

A popular way of participating thus far has been diffusing panel sessions=
 from conferences on the electronic arts. This gives panelists at these=
 conferences added international exposure.

The idea is not to re-orient ISEA Forum away from its current form as a=
 free, open discussion, but to add to this existing framework a series of=
 more structured and specific debates.

Please send your ideas and proposals for ChatterBox to:
