maap 1999: collapsing geographies
DESCRIPTION
MAAP 1999 examined technology’s role in reconfiguring social geography. The theme ‘Collapsing Geographies’ considered online artistic collaboration and advanced cross-cultural dialogue as transgressing traditional social and geographical borders. The diverse program of on- and off-line events included screenings, performances, interactive exhibitions and a conference in partnership with the Third Asia Pacific Triennial. The MAAP forum discussed shifting morphologies of landmarks, boarders, nation states, transnational territories, corporate capital and virtual government. Events were held in Brisbane in the Queensland Art Gallery, Brisbane City Gallery, Brisbane Exhibition and Convention Centre, Queensland Sciencenter, Queen St Mall, State Library of Queensland, Metro Arts, Dendy Cinema, Palace Gallery and The Zoo.TRANSCRIPT
