Post Me_New ID examines the complexity of 21st century European identity
through an exploration based on the effect of digital technologies of the
body and identity. An active and public Blog is fed by a series of debate
led Research Engines with a Forum, Book and DVD as the end products. In
addition a series of Creation Processes will result in a public
Installation / Performance.
Post Me_New ID forum is co-produced by an international consortium of
partners coming from Czech Republic, Germany, Slovenia and United Kingdom,
within an action/research project of the same name, which focuses on the
future of the body, and is co-financed by the European Commission under
Culture 2007 programme.
