Whether you make it, curate it, present it, write about it, teach it, programme it, or shape it in some other way, its constantly evolving technologies, a tendency to venture into unknown territories and mingle with diverse disciplines, and a predisposition for critical self-reflection and social discourse fuse new media arts into a fast-paced field that demands frequent updating of the drivers that operate its machinery.</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Thus, the 5-day pilot seminar Tactics and Practice: New Media Drivers aims to refresh and expand the new media arts educational offering in Slovenia and provide useful tools and insights into the field for creators at various stages in their careers. By utilizing various teaching methods and modalities (lectures, coaching sessions, workshops, conversations, participatory actions, performances, presentations) the seminar connects the new generation of new media arts creators with renowned professionals in the field to build a bridge from an academic “learning environment” to a “working environment”, and champions the values of process-oriented and lifelong learning through direct contact, communication, and dialogue.</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">The seminar compiles a snapshot of the state of new media art today from different angles while at the same time wanting to “demystify” it. Regardless of how you currently contribute or seek to contribute to the field, you are invited to participate in the week’s events and update your own new media drivers.</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br></span></font></div><div><b><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">PROGRAMME</span></font></b></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">PERFORMANCES</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Tuesday, 1 June, 20:00 > Robotcowboy, Dan Wilcox aka danomatika (US)</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Thursday, 3 June, 21:00 > the benchmark consort (laptop participatory performance), hans w. koch (DE)</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Friday, 4 June, 21:00 > Cirkulacija 2 (SI)</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Friday, 4 June, 22:00 > Un-drum 2: The Chinese Connection, Tarek Atoui (LB)</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">EXHIBITION</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Wednesday, 2 June, 21:00 at Kapelica Gallery> Global Bearing, Norimichi Hirakawa (JP)</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">CONVERSATIONS</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Wednesday, 2 June, 19:00 >Education models: Simge Esin (TR) with Seppo Gründler (AT)</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Wednesday, 2 June, 20:00 > Festival director: Simona Lodi (IT) with Jurij Krpan (SI)</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Thursday, 3 June, 19:00 > Theoretician: Marco Deseriis (IT) with Sunčica Ostoić (HR)</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Thursday, 3 June, 20:00 > Editor: Alessandro Ludovico (IT) with Janez Janša (SI)</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Friday, 4 June, 19:00 > Artists: monochrom (AT) with Vuk Ćosić (SI)</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Friday, 4 June, 20:00 > Curator: Domenico Quaranta (IT) with Dunja Kukovec (SI)</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">PARTICIPATORY ACTION</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Frida V.
