Throughout 2008 Networked Cultures will connect locations across the globe in a series of public events, the Networked Cultures Dialogues, curated by Peter Moertenboeck and Helge Mooshammer.
Building on the network logic of the Networked Cultures project, the series of Networked Cultures Dialogues offers a range of settings to bring the project contributors together with a multitude of local actors. Events will include the launch of a comprehensive publication and film archive, as well as exhibitions, video installations and live discussions. These platforms for public debate will follow four thematic strands: Network Creativity, Contested Spaces, Trading Places, Parallel Worlds.
Live contributions by Asu Aksoy, Lucia Babina, Gulsen Bal, Jochen Becker, Adrian Blackwell, Eric Cazdyn, Sudeep Dasgupta, Igor Dobricic, Nikolett Eroess, Asya Filippova, Iacopo Gallico, Emiliano Gandolfi, Cordula Gdaniec, Joseph Grima, Gita Hashemi, Guven Icirlioglu, Luis Jacob, Catherine Karl, Erden Kosova, Marc Neelen, Poka-Yio, Irit Rogoff, Despoina Sevasti, Christine Shaw, Samu Szemerei, Hakan Topal, Srdjan J.
