| Wednesdays 1, 15, 29 October Despite a history stretching back to the 1950s, art made using new media has largely been neglected by the mainstream art world. However, over the last few decades, a number of curators have gone to lengths to present and discuss this work. In addition to this series of seminars, on three Tuesday evenings distinguished speakers will be at Tate Modern reflecting on the issues they have encountered in curating new media art (see talks & discussions). Jasia Reichardt was curator of Cybernetic Serendipity at the ICA in 1968 as well as many other exhibitions involving new media and technologies. Christiane Paul is Adjunct Curator of New Media Arts at the Whitney Museum of American Arts and author of the recent book Digital Art, while Peter Weibel, previously in charge of Ars Electronica, the Austrian new media arts festival, is now Director of ZKM, the renowned German art and media centre. These speakers will be joined by other contributors to lead this Wednesday afternoon series of research seminars based around the themes of 'Cybernetics', 'Telematics' and 'Performance'. These seminars are recommended for those with some existing knowledge of the fields of new media or curatorial practice.
