Comment

Pendulum Symposium Mediterranean and Balkan Art & Technology Festival MEDIA = The image of the world, an image elaborated according to the circumstances. The high point of 21st-century culture. The face of modern technology, the homo communicus of cyberspace. TERRA = The earth we walk on, NOSTRA TERRA that takes on significance when it loses its borders. MEDITERRANEAN and BALKANS = A piece of the land of key significance to the Western world, between the different religions and worlds that are experiencing painfully the shaping of a new culture. MEDI@TERRA PROJECT = A proposal for thought, action, cooperation, and for the development of a dynamic pole in Athens, aiming at dialogue between adversaries and the discovery of the unexpected.
