> WHY BUDAPEST?
> -------------
>
> Budapest is the dynamically developing capital of Hungary, a
> not-too-long-ago communist state and a very recent member of the European
> Union. (...) Among the city's most appealing aspects for new media
> researchers we could mention the surprisingly high number of researchers
> interested in new media technologies, an uniquely viable Budapest based
> on-line community (see iw.hu), or the Hungarian capital's coffee house
> and thermal bath culture, maintaining sites for public discussion.
>
> A longer presentation of the political and media system in Hungary is
> available on the conference site.

>
> FUNDING
> -------
> The organizing institutions contribute to the travel and housing
> expenses of invited participants.
