Streaming Museum, real-time exhibitions in cyberspace and public space on seven continents, launches on January 29, 2008. The project, initiated by Nina Colosi, will present an ongoing program of multi-media exhibitions in collaboration with international curators and cultural institutions.

Streaming Museum is conceived as a source of free cultural content and public service messaging on the environment, education and health, accessed via Internet and in high visibility public locations. The opening exhibition, Good Morning Mr. Orwell, by pioneer video artist Nam June Paik, is a transcontinental musical extravaganza that interweaves fine art and pop culture icons. Paik's ideas in the 1970s about the "information superhighway" and global connectivity forecast the Internet.

See www.StreamingMuseum.org for information and location schedules for exhibitions of Good Morning Mr. Orwell and work by other contemporary visual, performing, fashion and theater artists, January 29 through April 24. Visitors at each venue are invited to upload pictures via cell phone or email to the Streaming Museum website.

Good Morning Mr. Orwell is presented courtesy of Electronic Arts Intermix, New York, and Paik Studios, New York. Streaming Museum is a member of International Urban Screens Association.

The program in Ars Virtua runs about 48 minutes and is really an amazing venture into video art as inspired by Nam June Paik. If you cannot make it to one of the physical spaces to see it, please consider visiting Ars Virtua.

We will be planning an official reception sometime during the run (TBA).

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me or info@streamingmuseum.org
