INFOS 2000, Slovenia's largest computer and communications fair, takes
place from 23th to 27th of October in Cankarjev dom in Ljubjana. In
recognition of the importance of the relation between the technologies
and art, the organisators of the fair, Infos Ltd., have supported the
concept of an (off-line) "net.art" contest, curated by Teo Spiller and
Timothy Murray.

"net.art" or "web.art" has been understood as art work that is produced
and seen on the Internet. Most these works tend to be crafted in HTML,
with JPG, GIF, FLASH and other multimedia add-ons, and are viewed with
web browsers on the internet. For INFOS 2000, we have expand this
category to feature (off-line) "net.art" that need not depend on the
Internet for its display but can be circulated to users and venues
without internet access through a CD-ROM, hard disk, or local networks.

The CD-Rom format of this net.art exhibition will permit its physical
transfer among casual visitors to INFOS 2000 who might not therwise have
the curatorial information or cultural interest to access these
individual projects on the web.

In presenting this exhibition in off-line form, we offer it for use to
individuals, public social centers, schools, and libraries in
economically besieged zones that might not have access to the high speed
connections necessary for the ideal presentation of the majority of the
net.art projects here presented.

The INFOS 2000 CD-ROM includes the contents of the contest and is being
provided to all participants of INFOS 2000.

INFOS will also deliver the CD-ROM to media art academies, institutes
and magazines around the world. If you represent a media art institution
and would like to recieve a free copy of INFOS 2000 (off-line) "net.art"
contest CD-ROM, please send the exact address (contact person,
institution, street, house number, zip, city, country, state, etc.), the
URL of your institution's web page and a short introduction of your
media art institution to khruna@teo-spiller.org.
