  Mesh #19 Global/ Regional Perspectives
  Experimenta’s annual media arts journal (online)
   
  MESH #19 will be an online issue providing a global overview of 
contemporary media arts practice and the creative application of new 
technological developments through articles that focus on local 
practice in specific regions. This issue will focus on the critical,

arts practice, balancing the conceptual issues facing media arts 
culture with the social/cultural, economic and political contexts in 
which the practices exist.

commentators and theorists about practices in the following regions:
  * West & East Europe
  * Africa
  * Middle East
  * Asia Pacific
  * The Americas
   
  MESH #19 will be launched on the Experimenta website in September 2006.
   
  Criteria
  * maximum word length: 2000 words;
  * the article should use plain language as it is for a general 
readership;
  * the article must cite at least 3 recent media artworks;
  * images with copyright clearance are to be sourced by the author.
   
  Deadline: Friday 5 May 2006 for the submission of 100 word abstracts
