Cumulus Conference 2003  -  Estonia Art Academy

Friends,

I will be in Tallinn, Estonia from May 7 through May 11th at the Cumulus 
Conference at the Estonia Art Academy.

"CUMULUS is an European association of art, design, and media universities 
<http://tmo.uiah.fi/cumulus/>http://tmo.uiah.fi/cumulus/, and the CUMULUS 
conference audience includes educators and researchers in art, design and 
media from over 40 institutions across Europe as well as from China, Japan 
and Korea.

"As the CUMULUS conference is titled VALID (value in design) conveys 
valuable and unique contribution Artists and Designers make in challenging 
conventional practices and assumptions by proposing new, radical and 
provocative possibilities."

If anyone is in close vicinity to Estonia or has any information or 
suggestions for me while visiting this part of the world, please let me 
know!  I've never been to Russia or Lativa -- so I'm excited to learn about 
this culture.

Here is the URL to the conference program http://cumulus.artun.ee/program.html

I'm sure I could learn a lot from Amara Graps and Karlis Ullis about this 
part of the world!

Best,
Natasha
