An evening of talks, performances and screenings from American authors and artists who produce collaborative, cross-medial narratives in new media, ranging from Netprovs that unfold on Twitter, to video/fiction hybrids that recombine as database narratives, to subversive performances in massively multiplayer online games. Featuring Rob Wittig and Joeyllyn Rock (Duluth, Minnesota), Roderick Coover (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania), Sandy Baldwin (Morgantown, Virginia), Scott Rettberg and Jill Walker Rettberg (Bergen).
The presenters are collaborating on teaching the summer course Collaborative Creativity in New Media, which is a joint course for UiB and three US universities.
The event will take place in the auditorium at Bergen Public Library and is a collaboration between UiB and the library, and is part of the library's Digital arena project.
