ParticipART is an exhibition and discussion platform on participative
forms of digital art to be held at MART (Museum of Modern Art of
Trento and Rovereto, Italy) on 2-4 August, 2006.
ParticipART is the novel Art Track of the PARTICIPATORY DESIGN
CONFERENCE 2006, "Expanding Boundaries in Design", which will take
place in Trento, Italy on July 31-August 5, 2006.
Since 1990, the PARTICIPATORY DESIGN CONFERENCE (PDC) has been
focusing on the design and development of computing and information
technologies in diverse social contexts, with the active
collaboration of people who use or are affected by these systems.
Over the years, our design discussions have been enlivened and
enriched by the efforts of musicians, architects, computer graphic
designers and artists working across a wide range of disciplines.
Artists presenting their work at PDC 2006 will enjoy a rare
opportunity to reach a technically expert and socially engaged
community of practitioners.
