Dear ADA
The closest thing we will have to a realspace conference session in
New Zealand during Electrosmog is a session using the Access Grid
video conferencing facilities at the universities. This will take
place this friday (March 19) from 2-4pm.
We have invited researchers from within the universities who use the
Karen network for big distributed and remote data projects, and people
involved in establishing and researching those kinds of big networks.
This is a little late in the process (as is everything else!), but you
are all invited to participate from a university Access Grid node near
you. If you would like to come along please email me so I can make
sure there will be a node operational and let you know where it is.
Even better, if you would like to present briefly during the session
about some remote collaboration work you have done (in either an art
or academic research capacity), please email me with a brief overview
of the project.
Also please email me if you know of any other kinds of interesting
remote collaboration- based research being carried out in nz
universities
Details below
thanks
Zita
