The Institute of Network Cultures and CREATE-IT Applied Research  
Centre at
the Hogeschool van Amsterdam are pleased to present an evening with
L.A.-based artist and theorist Sean Dockray. As an adjunct event of the
Unbound Book conference (19 - 21 May, Amsterdam & Den Haag), this  
evening
will offer both conference goers and a wider public the chance to hear
more about Sean's work as a designer and writer who emphasizes an  
active,
critical engagement with technology. The evening will pit Sean in
conversation with net critic Geert Lovink and curator Annet Dekker, as
Dockray presents his work crafting online and offline non-institutional
networks and archives, including the AAAARG digital library and The  
Public
School, now found in several cities worldwide.

This event is made possible by Smart Project Space and the Foreign
Visitors Program at Virtueel Platform.

Geert Lovink is a net critic and the founding director of the  
Institute of
Network Cultures.

Annet Dekker is independent curator and researcher whose
subjects of interest are the influence of new media, science and popular
culture on art and vice versa.
