From the Military to the Masses

Last year, 25 international media artists gathered together at Irbene, Latvia, at the site of an abandoned 32 meter dish antenna once used by the KGB to spy on satellite transmissions between Europe and North America. The artists explored creative interaction with a formerly military device and formulated a communications network. This week, the participating artists are unveiling projects inspired by their experiences in Latvia. Audio, video, web installations and images by Kim Cascone, Locomotive, Mukul, and others will be presented online.
