Focus on Media Art Histories

University of California, Los Angeles, USA

This report reviews ‘REFRESH! The First International Conference on the Histories of Media Art, Science and Technology’ held at the Banff Centre for the Arts, Alberta, Canada, from 28 September to 1 October 2005. The event dealt with the interconnections between media art, science and technology, although its mission was not absolutely clear. As the review points out, there was some vagueness in defining the goals, partly related to its interdisciplinary nature. The review then places the event within a cultural and institutional context and discusses plans to turn it into a continuing tradition.

Key Words: interdisciplinary research • media art history • REFRESH! • theory • technology

Convergence: The International Journal of Research into New Media Technologies, Vol. 12, No. 3, 357-360 (2006)
