The Upgrade! Johannesburg presents: Turbulence.org

Please circulate widely! This is an amazing opportunity for South
Africans to learn about online contemporary art from two of its
ongoing pioneers and most noteworthy supporters of commissioned work.
Live and in person!

The Upgrade! Johannesburg and Wits Digital Arts proudly present:
Turbulence.org
(also sponsored by The Trinity Session)
Friday 7 April, 3-5PM

Visiting from the US, Turbulence.org is an internationally renowned
net.art commissioning organization - a continuing pioneer in funding
contemporary conceptual artists working with networked media. For
years, they have been commissioning international online art,
including Johannesburg artists Nathaniel Stern and Marcus Neustetter
in 2005.

Turbulence is co-directed by Helen Thorington (founder of New Radio
and Performing Arts, Turbulence's mother organization) and Jo-Anne
Green (a Wits alumnus!). The two will be presenting a very biased
history of web-based artwork, showing projects they have commissioned
as well as some of their own, and will then be taking questions.

No knowledge of web technology necessary!
Open to all!
