[artinfo] Ars Electronica 2003 - 3rd Announcement: Conferences (fwd): "Collective Creativity

Language-the code of human understanding-enabled humanity to take a quantum=
leap of collective intelligence. How do the new possibilities of communica=
tion influence the exchange of ideas within and among societies? How does s=
oftware determine our collective creativity? Do computer programs influence=
the way we see the world and how we think? Can there be a language of coll=
ective intelligence? And-getting down to details-what effects will the new =
Open Source and Open Standards approaches have on the further development a=
nd progress of collective creativity?

Moderation: Derrick de Kerckhove
