Saturday 15th June, 2pm

The 21st century has brought forth a set of digital tools that the media artist has taken up at the speed

forum investigating the function, technique and value of experimental media culture in Australian
contemporary society.

Players: dr Nigel Helyer, Mari Velonaki and Wade Marynowskj
