Media art of digital origin: artists CD-ROMs, net-projects, video art, and

In counterbalance to digital part will be made a section of poor media
art, to present
low-tech media, electronic art created with the cheapest possible
technology: videos,
objects, installations.

Title of the event "Media Non Grata" is reflecting the situation of
digital art in Estonia,
which has not found its respect and understanding. Digital artists are
kind of non-grata-persons, unacceptable for establishment. During the
festival there will be published a catalogue, which is open for texts on
status of digital art and artists in changing society, low-technological
art in high-tech era, independence/dependency of artistic message from
cheapness/expensiveness of used means.

objects or installations. Festival will provide artists with computers,
space in server, screenings place, halls of Estonian Academy of Arts for
