"In a world that is changing irresistibly with the help of new technologies, we believe that understanding the basics of techno-cultural development, as part of general education, is extremely important. It is art (new media) that can be the means through which information technologies are transformed into an expression that is closer and more comprehensible to people." the organizers wrote. The project encourages artistic and theoretical creativity in the cross-border area and at the same time develops cross-border cooperation in the inventive field of new media.
