On The Move, IETM, the City of Nantes and Relais Culture Europe are organising a colloquium in Nantes, in collaboration with ERBAN from 23-24 June, entitled: Interactive Culture (Culture and On-line information) The conference aims to deepen understanding of the cultural evolution towards digital culture; to identify the specific problems concerning the dissemination of cultural information; to debate the relations between technological tool and artistic and cultural content; and to analyse the transformation of cultural resources into on-line information - both as dematerialised objects and as communication flows. Two days of discussion will focus on the encounter between 'cultural domain' and 'digital culture' and will question if the cultural operators and resource centers are lagging behind in the exploitation of new possibilities. 'Virtual' participation is possible as the introductory and conclusive sessions of the colloquium will be streamed on the website of ERBAN at www.erba-nantes.fr The introductory session takes place on 23 June, 2005. After that specific debates will be conducted in working groups by exchanging and examining experience, presenting case studies and discussing inspiring models of the use of new technology for providing information, building communities and strengthening the professional capacities of cultural operators and artists working across borders in Europe. The conclusive session is on the 24 June and will take the form of a feedback session where the observers of the 4 working groups will report back on the 'expression of needs'.
