Dear Roger and Yasminers,

Since I've seen that you were talking about BunB Conference, I would like to let you know that i will present my moistmedia fresco at the parallel dome art-show, that i-Dat is organising.
I am saying this because it concerns both the cultural heritage discussion and the computational aesthetic topic. Actually it is based in the thought of re-sign the de-sign, that is, acknowledging the sign (semio) and create, rather than a re-presentation, a computational manifestation.
Best
Katerina
