>and culture are unfolding in a global network. In the global game, only
>the individual room for manoeuvre varies. The Berlin-based international
>media art festival *transmediale.03* (1-5 february 2003) presents art

>culture. Play global!
>Andreas Broeckmann, artistic director of transmediale, introduces the
>theme of the upcoming festival and presents a preview of projects that
>will feature at transmediale.03.

>and media studies and worked as a project manager at V2_Organisation
>Rotterdam, Institute for the Unstable Media, from 1995-2000. He is a
>member of the Berlin-based media association mikro, and of the European
>Cultural Backbone, a network of media centres. In texts and lectures he
