Abstract:
ASCII Foundation for Contemporary Art Education, founded by artist and educator Shady El Noshokaty, is a research center for contemporary art, new media and industrial technology based in Cairo. The primary goal of the foundation is dedicated to supporting the education of young artists in Egypt, supplementing the art curriculum offered by the state universities by emphasizing rigorous research and archiving as the foundation for the practice of conceptual art. The Media Art Workshop, an annual event, was developed by ElNoshokaty, and the 14th edition was presented in Summer 2014.
