In a globalised world, dominated by communication technologies, with
countless questions concerning a future that affects our everyday life, it
is essential to make this analysis and to consider, from different
perspectives, how our polyhedral, altered reality is being effected by the
widespread use of new technology as a support for new ideas and
possibilities that are almost infinite. We need to investigate how this
occurs in different societies and cultures and to propose models that may
go beyond what has been known until now.


The First International Art Tech Media Congress has been set up in order
to reflect upon and analyse questions currently being raised about art and
new technological media within an international context.


Within this context, an intensive debate needs to take place on the
influence and transformations that new media is producing in art, there
needs to be a greater understanding of the foundations for more effective
cooperation between the different sectors linked to digital art, and
proposals need to be devised for the development of national and
international collaborative networks in order to improve production,
research, exhibition and promotion.


Last year, Art Tech Media 06 encounters had been held at nine Spanish
museums, and given the great participation and the opinions collected, its
seems clear that this is an ideal time to celebrate the First International
Art Tech Media Conference. It represents a great opportunity to hold a
transversal debate in order to devise proposals that will lead to greater
and better coordination among the different sectors of art, aimed at
strengthening its development.
