"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!
