The 2nd Master Symposium Design in Lucerne

Februar 23, 2010, Lucerne Switzerland

The second Master Symposium Design in Lucerne deals with narrative that challenges the classic model of a story with a middle, beginning and an end. Network fiction can not only be found in networks such as the Internet but also in what would often be de- scribed as linear media such as film, book and theatre. This symposium brings together practitioners from various fields, working at the cutting edge of narrative form.

JOURNAL FOR ARTISTIC RESEARCH (JAR)
CALL FOR SUPPORT

The international Journal for Artistic Research (JAR) is in the making! After an initial development phase funded by Y (Institute for Transdisciplinarity), Bern University of the Arts, we are now looking for individuals and institutions to get involved and to share our idea of a dedicated journal for artistic research. Already, JAR has widespread support. However, by making this call public do we hope to widen the journal's support basis before we consolidate the journal and start working on issue 0 from the beginning of next year. Now is the time to get involved!
