The event was organised by the Council of Europe for specialists in the fields of art, science, philosophy and sociology. The objective of the meeting was to discuss some of the major directions in art and science with practitioners in various fields, particularly those concerned with the fundamental transformations taking place in certain areas of knowledge and the effect of those changes on contemporary culture and society.

i am actually quite interested both to promote my url and to enhance it in general towards further communications. as an artist and an experimental photographer i always concentrated on how artistically i photographed rather than on which object and what subject i was aiming to. With the web it is being the same. This url is for multimedia arts and communications around the world and throughout the cyber connections with a main theme
"how to achieve doing art   next  tto technologial communicationools as they move in to  our daily lives. . Recently for some reasons i concentrated to show more of my many decades old ancient photo archive until some time and pictures of ayvalie until a shorter period of time... for multi media arts a keen interest on new music is essentially of basic importance...like varese, cage, pglass, gyorgy kurtag, ilhan usmanbas etc therefore i am putting contemporary music news, articles and clips on the internet... all this being aimed for professionals, young people and for everybody also, because in the internet everything needs to be suitable and fitting to it, experimental etc. i tried to keep this short, please take print outs from various articles for further readings, ask all you want by e-mails and if you like e-mail the site to friends who may also by chance give links to it teoman madra teoman@newmediakitchen.com 

PHOTOGRAPHY also needs to be carried on experimental basis. light physics is essential to end up at various targets, with rhythmic possibilities, all the psychological sensitivities of what is being captured in to your camera and focusing on to your own counter subjective temparements. A wide space for intuition, imagination and emotion and while new technologies in your specific whereabouts. To foresee a lot beyond photography, architecture, music, art, dance and aesthetics at dimensions pragmatic and virtual varieties, within amongst them...Actually workshops can get started somehow and when they continue few things may always happen.
