You are reading the sixth issue of the Ars Electronica 2002 newsletter, focusing on the theme exhibition Weltkarten - 
Change the Map and on African Art Screen.

.............................
1. Weltkarten - Change the Map
.............................

Ars Electronica exhibits current world map projections in which geography legitimated by the nation-state system is 
overlaid by the reciprocities and points of rupture in our modern Information Society-cyber-graphies of a world of data and 
information systems whose meridians are lines of economic, ecological and political power.

Artists as cartographers: a confrontation with topological world models is meant to formulate and/or inspire a critique of the 
topographic Weltanschauung and patterns of behavior on which it has had an impact.
(September 8-12, 10:00 AM - 7:00 PM, Brucknerhaus)
