[1] *EXHIBITION*
Young medial art, media- art and conceptional art from eastern and western Europe of the last 20 years will be shown in the "Freiraum" in MuseumsQuartier Vienna, presented by the well known slovenian curator Dunja Kukovec.

accepted works are

or any other kind of related digital works.

Artistic work selected for inclusion in the exhibition will be presented to an international audience of peers, critics, producers, academics, local industry partners and the broader public.

[2] *SYMPOSIUM*
Parallel to the exhibition there will be a complementary, theoretical as well as interactive line-up. It should help to decode and reflect upon the ways of origination and the perception of various artists and art groups, who either are or have been active in the aforementioned fields.

Speeches, artists or artist-group presentations, presentations of organizations or demonstrations of digital work will be accepted.

[3] *WORKSHOPS*
Several workshops will take place during Coded Cultures. These will picture the tools and methods of digital art and progressvive projects.

Workshops in the field of digital art and tools for the production of digital content, as well as the topic of distributing art will be accepted.

Artistic work is coded on behalf of different cultural backgrounds, cultural connotations and (visual) symbolism. These codes will be pointed out and compared. The aim is to make the "art of the new media" apprehend- and experiencable. Apart from the technical approach, narrative elements, interaction and transparency are of importace to the viewer. The term of "digital art" will be discussed- the ways of creation, perception, aesthetics and norms will be reflected upon and decoded. Artists and the interested audience shall be brought together in the open forum Coded Cutures: the contemporary situation of digital forms of expression is to be illustrated, new ways and possibilities in these disciplines to be found and the discussion about digital art shall be stimulated.
