This two-day electronic arts education forum will address issues relevant to the current research/innovation agenda in the arts.

It will be based on an open discussion of current pedagogies and future possibilities of spatial practices in the arts. Teaching practices in the new digital domain and the challenges it presents to the arts will be examined in a forum that brings together electronic arts lecturers from various convergent disciplines along with international speakers.

The forum will look at ongoing strategies for future collaborations between institutions within this area. These collaborations will be to define discipline research strategies that will explore the role of the new digital technology in framing research goals within the arts.

An Electronic Arts Network for Australia

Wednesday, March 13th, 1991

Phillip Bannigan and Sue Harris

The technical and economic environment for creating an online network for artists and their advocacy bodies is favourable in that affordable public networks are widespread and most arts organisations own personal computers.
