Rau, Anja2022-01-042022-01-042001-05-19https://mediarep.org/handle/doc/18396The fourth international conference Digital Arts and Culture (see report to DAC 2000) was held at Brown University, Providence, RI, 26-28 April 2001. Since 1998, a community of scholars, developers and artists have met annually (alternating between Europe and the US) to present and discuss new projects. This community has developed over several years and several other conferences, but DAC has turned into a kind of family reunion, almost. People get together, develop continuous discussions, introduce new ideas, push group-projects. Thanks to the mix of presentations and performances and to organized informal get-togethers as well as the student-friendly pricing-policy, newcomers can join in the activities and communities easily. DAC has become a pool in which digital theory and arts may grow. The quality of the contributions over the years goes to show how well this concept works.engDigital Mediadigital art79110.25969/mediarep/174531617-6901
