Abstract:
In Media & Ethics symposium, Helsinki, and ISEA96, Rotterdam, Toshiya Ueno gave a talk on Techno Orientalism. In DEAF ’96 and Digital Dreams ’96 Tapio Makela worked on the topic Orientalist Aesthetics. In Ars Electronica 97 we had a dialogue in Net.Sauna on how to converge these two topics. We will have prepared this topic in advance, have parts prewritten (dialogue as theatre), parts visualised (imaginary dialogue) and parts generated on location (performative dialogue).
