---------------------------------------------
The Annual Convention for digital arts and cultures in Vienna focusses
on the idea of a ‚net behind the net’ which can mean both the digital
behind the social net, and the social behind the digital net. The
exhibitions will display works dealing with the ‘social web’ focussing
on the topic of the ‘nets behind the nets’. The symposium draws
participants from all over the world and consists of lectures and
workshops on the topic of paraflows 06. Daily net.art-brunches and
evening events will top off the festival and encourage participants and
visitors to communicate with each other. [symposium-,

paraflows-opening party Kunsthalle Museumsquartier Wien

Paraflows presents 27 local as well as international productions which
– using new media as a cultural tool – aim for a better understanding
of today’s society, thus also being able to utter criticism in order to
redesign society. What’s crucial is the role of new technologies in the
perception and development of a new culture of the present – software
and computer programming are regarded as being a cultural technique.
The exhibition will be held in various locations within the Viennese
art and culture scene, ranging from art spaces to clubs, production
sites and gallery spaces. Some of the projects were developed for or in
accordance with the locations.
