digitalbiedermeier – reproducing the private: festival and conference from 27 november to 1 december 2002 at wuk vienna.

"the boundaries between private and public are in constant change. what seems to different to former shifts in balance, ist that nowadays, change seems to be mostly technologically induced. starting with the gramophone, growing with the walkman, the power of technology to transform our understanding of the inside/outside dichotomy is today reaching a startling peak. the digitalbiedermeier event is trying to get a focus on the questions that pop up when we thing(sic!) about public surveillance, evernet and media cocooning".

they have a call for entries, too (and prevent linking to it).

reproducing the private... weblogs, anyone?
