The five week online forum (www.eyebeam.org/restructuredscreen) is an
interdisciplinary dialogue exploring the language, narrative structues,
unique environments, and politics of the new moving image.  Topics to be
explored include: immersive screen based environments in public spaces
and art works; concepts of looping, sampling and multi-formatting that
have affected narrative structure; expanded media access that has
widened film distribution and global activism; and new forms of
interactive interface composition, special effects compositing, and 3D
computer graphics that have forever modified the contemporary lexicon
and changed current aesthetics.

Forum participants include:
Jeremy Blake, Anthony Bregman, Jem Cohen, Brian Drolet, Steve Hamilton,
Chrissie Iles, Mary Lucier, Craig Kalpakjian, Jeff Kleiser, Peter
Lunenfeld, Pat O'Neill, John Pilson, Matthew Ritchie, Alex Rivera,
