<<(Crack the) Binary Code>>

A symposium of multimedia criticism as part of Interact Multimedia
Festival 97
Melbourne Exhibition Centre, Nov 1-2 1997

Has the digital revolution come up with the artistic goods? 'Binary
Code' invites critics from a range of disciplines (literature, visual
art, craft and film) to appraise the cultural worth of multimedia. Does
the small screen supersede, complement or undermine other art forms? Can
we generalise critical concepts from literature, art and film to the
digital arts? Is there a 'multimedia sublime', or is there only 'cool'?
Is 'technological correctness' inimical to good art?

Organised by Centre of Contemporary Photography in conjunction with the
Interact Multimedia Expo (http://www.interact-events.com.au). For
