OPEN SOURCE ARCHITECTURE

Eyebeam Atelier with the Center for New Design at Parsons School of
Design presents:

OPEN SOURCE ARCHITECTURE: The Future Art Space
An Online Forum from July 9-August 4, 2001
www.eyebeam.org/opensourcearchitecture

Utilizing the model of open source code which is written and maintained
by a community of people from diverse disciplines, OPEN SOURCE
ARCHITECTURE is a four-week critical forum on the net featuring artists,
architects, critics, curators, designers, and theorists with the public
in a discussion on the convergence of new media art and architectural
space. Eyebeam Atelier is a not-for-profit arts organization that
serves as a resource for artists and audiences interested in the
educational, aesthetic, theoretical, and conceptual potential of new
media art. As Eyebeam goes forward with its architectural design
competition for a new facility on West 21st Street in Manhattan, it
hopes to stimulate discussion around the issue of the new media art
space. Over 45 people will be online including: Peter Anders, Asymptote
Architecture, Suzanne Anker, Betty Beaumont, Andrew Blauvelt, Marshall
Blonsky, Neil Denari, Diller + Scofidio, Gluckman Mayner Architects,
Greg Lynn, Fabian Marcaccio, Pedro Meyer, Erwin Redl, Cynthia Rubin,
Michael Rush, Peter Seidler, Elizabeth Streb, Tucker Viemeister.
