The Center for Experiments in Art, Information, and Technology (CEAIT) is holding its 6th annual festival of electronic music. The festival is student-organized and, over the past five years, has presented a wide range of performances and installations, many of which integrated media outside audio such as dance, video, text and computer graphics. Presentations have included works by Maggi Payne, Todd Winkler, Pamela Z, Joe Colley, Blectum from Blechdom, Bob Gonsalves, Ted Apel, Douglas Repetto, and many others.

We are accepting proposals for presentation at this year's festival, January 10-12, 2003.
