Digital '04; TOMORROW
September 10 - December 5, 2004
The Technology Gallery at the The New York Hall of Science 
Opening Reception:  October 3, 2-4pm

on-line gallery at http://www.asci.org/artikel616.html

For Digital'04, twenty-three artists and scientists from around the world, were selected via an open international competition, to presage "tomorrow" by showing us their visionary images of what they believe science and technology will produce for our futures.  What will our products and world look like, on and off this planet, or perhaps beneath its oceans?  At a time when digital technology and the information super-highway have impacted the artworld perhaps more drastically than most other professions, we anticipate that this unique mirror of society's values and aspirations for science and technology may prove surprising!
