March 21, 2005

MISSION

Founded in the Netherlands in 1990, the Inter-Society for the Electronic Arts (ISEA) is an international nonprofit organization fostering interdisciplinary academic discourse and exchange among culturally diverse organizations and individuals working with art, science and emerging technologies.

ISEA publishes a newsletter; hosts an online archive and exchange environment and oversees the International Symposium on Electronic Art, a regular gathering of the international art, science and technology community.

The series of symposia known as the International Symposium on Electronic Art was initiated in 1988 to create and maintain an international network of organisations and individuals active in the field of electronic arts. The symposia have been held as both biennial and annual events. As of 2006, they will be held annually.
