As mentioned at the last reSource meeting, we'd like to try different 
meeting formats to share and network ideas. For this reason, the nine 
presentations (of 5 mins each) will take place in a speed-networking 
format [reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_geeking]. The 
audience will stay seated, but the three presenters will change tables 
after each of the three rounds. Below you will find a list of the 
presenters, with some brief info on their presentations.

We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday evening!

Best wishes,
The SUPERMARKT team

Stephen Kovats [r0g media]
*Stephen Kovats, director of r0g media, will present a special 'review' 
event of ostranenie festival. ostrenenie93 - the first comprehensive 
video and new media festival aimed exclusively at the the role that 
media culture played in the societal transformation process in Eastern 
and Central Europe opened on 7 Nov 1993 at the Bauhaus, Dessau. Directed 
by Stephen Kovats, curated together with Inke Arns, and in collaboration 
with the then newly formed Werkleitz Gesellschaft, the festival helped 
create one of the first platforms for artistic and cultural dialogue 
between East and West. It's 1993 edition premiered perhaps the world's 
first 'internet art work' HANDSHAKE by the Berlin collective Lux Logis 
(Barbara Aselmeier, Joachim Blank, Armin Haase, Karl Heinz Jeron) and by 
default of the times went on in its further editions to trace the 
catastrophic turbulence of the conflicts that tore Yugoslavia apart. 20 
years later, on 7 Nov 2013, a special public review of ostranenie is 
being planned.
