Here is a short description of previous and recent project.

[1998.] The Cathedral - The Restoration of Information
is a project with which a group of authors is commemorating the tenth
anniversary of the performance of the work The Cathedral
(23/24/25 - 02 - 1988).
The project consists of  a series of informative and documentary
actions, as well as media actions, which shall take place during the
current year. The aim of the project is to provide relevant information
on media art via printed matter and the electronic media. This project
is a means of providing the facts, and of enlarging the basis of these
facts, necessary for the understanding of current and future works in
the sphere of interactive media art.

[1988.] The Cathedral
is an interactive work carried out through the medium of a computer
which was realised in the course of six performances during the month of
February, 1988 in the Gallery of Expanded Media in Zagreb and as a
direct broadcast on Radio 101, Zagreb. This project, which is based on
the traditional media art of the 20th century is, from a formal and
technological point of view, an innovative one, and is one of the first
interactive environment in the world to be generated by a computer.
