How YOU fell in love with media art

21-04-2009


Dear Media Art Lover,

With 'How I fell in love with media art', you can show us and others that have their heads in the clouds, what made you fall in love and why your heart beats faster when thinking of media art. You're free in the way you express yourself so that you can be really creative with your ode, serenade, poetry, love art or whatever form of expression you have in mind. Ideally, we would prefer your creative expression as a video (2 minutes max). You can send us your video or upload it at Youtube and forward the link to us instead.

Prepare yourself because there is a celebration coming up. From Friday the 8th of May till Sunday the 10th of May, The Netherlands Media Art Institute (NIMk) will be celebrating it's 30th birthday. We won't let our birthday pass by unnoticed. That's why we invite you to come over to the NIMk and celebrate with us!

We would like to receive a birthday present too but we do not fancy cards or flowers. No, our perfect gift is YOU showing why you love media art so much.
