The Slow Web

call for projects

15 Jun 2009
20 Jun 2009

This is a call for art projects that fit the topic of ‘the slow Web.’ Designers, artists, programmers with a love for beautiful code, hand-drawn info-visualization, slow social networking, and zero-template design, are invited to submit a proposal for a work to be developed and shown in the context of Impakt Online. What is Web design without a template, and what is Web Culture without profiles with required fields? While the Impakt festival focuses on Accelerated Living this year, Impakt Online is in search of the slow Web.
