ISEA2004 International Symposium on Electronic Arts

ISEA2004 conferences in Helsinki and Tallinn, and on a cruiser ferry 
connecting them, are key elements of the 12th International Symposium on 
Electronic Arts (August 14th-22nd).

The interdiscpilinary symposium presents the latest technological and 
artistic innovations by the most advanced media labs from all over the 
world. ISEA2004 is the key happening for those working with electronic 
arts, digital media, content production, wireless applications and 
mobile technologies. It brings together almost two thousand top 
professionals: artists, curators, directors of most important media 
centres and museums, developers of new technologies, scientists and 
journalists writing on media culture in the leading publications of the 
field. At the same time the spectacular cruise on the Baltic Sea serves 
as a forum for pleasant networking and leisure.
