> well as it will optional complement this presentation through works of local

> actions of different kind, via "online streaming" in real time or temporarily
> displaced. Further are optional, workshops or other events to be organised in
> this framework. 
> The audience, the project is addressed to is not only reduced to online
> users, but includes the visitors of the physical installation as well, who
> all cannot only participate what is going on in the global network (program),
> but it is intended to include also some direct involvement of the visitor.
