Here new wandering news from the GATES project. For first thank-you to everybody who participated, wrote to us, who realized events, tried to remain in the spirit of the project. Thank-you also to everybody who sent to us a project for a performance, a fest, an installation; not everybody could realize it during Summer, but we received really interesting ideas, so we decided continue GATE until December to give everybody the possibility to finish the project. But it is very urgent you to send a documentation (video VHS PAL, IBM CD ROM, jpg files) of your GATES events in your country. We are planning the presentation in Rome in Autumn. Who had not time to work during Summer, has time until December. Scroll down for the Call for Entries of the GATES Planetary Project - Part 2 (October 1- December 31).

We are creating a new form of art that uses as matter e-communication, relationship among persons, art debate, our real/virtual body, voice, gesture (Karenina.it is all this); experimentals! artists, poets, critics, theoreticians! e-post-Fluxus casseurs, e-post-post-duchamp-ists (?), welcome!, Karenina.it is an open gate for what you think, and for what you do. Gates is dedicated to Pierre Restany How to Join, photos of events in the world (web site under construction): http://members.xoom.virgilio.it/davinio/GATES/gatesindex.htm EXTENDED DEAD LINE DECEMBER 31 2003 -- Karenina.it Experimental http://members.xoom.virgilio.it/kareninazoom/kareninarivista.html
