film, video, and the little known media art history of the 1960s-80s, today
media artists are active in a wide range of digital areas (including
interactive, genetic, telematic and nanoart). The Media Art History Project
offers a basis for attempting an evolutionary history of the audiovisual media,
from the Laterna Magica to the Panorama, Phantasmagoria, Film, and the Virtual
Art of recent decades. This panel tries to clarify, if and how varieties of
Media Art have been splitting up during the last decades. It examines also how
far back Media Art reaches as a historical category within the history of Art,
Science and Technology.<o:p></o:p></FONT></FONT></SPAN></P>

face=Times>Although much recent scholarship in the Humanities and Social
Sciences has been "body-minded," this research has yet to grapple with a major
problem familiar to contemporary cognitive scientists and neuroscientists. How
do we reconcile a top-down, functional view of cognition with a view of human
beings as elements of a culturally shaped biological world? Current scientific
investigations into autopoiesis, emotion, symbolization, mind-body relations,
consciousness, "mental representations", visual and perceptual systems ?open up
fresh ways of not only figuring the self but of approaching historical as well
as elusive electronic media --again or anew--from the deeper vantage of an
embodied and distributed brain. Papers that struggle concretely to relate
and integrate aspects of the brain basis of cognition with any number of
pattern-making media are solicited to stimulate
debate.<o:p></o:p></FONT></FONT></SPAN></P>

style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB"><FONT size=3><FONT face=Times>The dividing
lines between art products and consumer products have been disappearing more and
more since the Pop Art of the 1960s. The distinction between artist and
recipient has also become blurred. Most recently, the digitalization of our
society has sped up this process enormously. In principle, more and more
artworks are no longer bound to a specific place and can be further developed
relatively freely. The cut-and-paste principle has become an essential
characteristic of contemporary culture production. The spread of access to the
computer and the internet gives more people the possibility to participate in
this production. The panel examines concrete forms, as for example computer
games, determining the cultural context and what consequences they could have
for the understanding of art in the 21st
