ART-e-FACT online magazine for contemporary art and culture
Written by
ART-e-FACT, is not just a magazine for contemporary art and culture. It is above all an open and public forum for the critical consideration of society, of new practices in art, their interaction with the theory and politics of presentation in an artistic and indeed a non-artistic context. For this reason the first edition of ART-e-FACT was devoted to one of the most acute social problems at the turn of the millennium - in East and West, North and South - illegal migration.

ART-e-Fact is designed by New Zealand designer Trudy Lane and Helen Varley Jamieson New Zealand cyberformance artist is a contributor.In our third issue of ART-e-FACT, the main point of investigation focuses on the ways in which technology and especially new media technologies (from digital gadgets, to the Internet and virtual reality technology, etc.) change our artistic and cultural paradigms. In which ways are artists transformed by technology, and technology reshaped by artists and activists? The differences can also be seen as a result of the ways in which activists and artists try to break into particles the myth of art-culture-technology's happy liaisons. The TECHNOMYTHOLOGIES are divided into several areas of investigation and try to raise controversial positions taken by artists, theoreticians, performers, film and video makers, attacking the myths about technology and the technology of the myths from a consistently political point of view.
The contributions are different:
1. Theoretical texts and critical reflection.
2. Presentation of art works from videos and films,
photography, Internet or web projects.
3. Displaying political, cultural, forensic manifestos
along with links to interesting projects.
