I Larfed Out Loud!
Thanks Michael for the new lens.
I do hope it turns out to be as much fun in the flesh as your newly
emphasized billing promises.

Roll up! Roll up!: The MediaArtHistories masters program conveys the
most important
developments of contemporary art through a network of renowned
international theorists, artistsandcurators like Erkki HUHTAMO, Lev
MANOVICH, Christiane PAUL, Kathy Rae HUFFMAN, Frieder NAKE, Jens HAUSER,
Andreas LANGE, Christa SOMMERER, knowbotic research, Jeffrey SHAW,
Oliver GRAU, and many others.
Roll up Roll up!: Historical derivations that go far back
into art and media history are tied in intriguing ways to digital art.
Key approaches and methods from Image Science, Media Archaeology and the
History of Science & Technology will be discussed.
Media Art History offers a basis for understanding evolutionary
history of audiovisual
media, from the Laterna Magica to the Panorama, Phantasmagoria, Film,
and the Digital Art of recent decades.
&c.
It brightened my day.

into a faculty working intensely with the students in seminars and
workshops.
