Telepolis - Exhibition and Symposium on the Interactive and Networked City, Luxemburg, 3.11. - 12.11.1995

About the Telepolis WWW-Site

Telepolis WWW-Site serves a twofold purposes. First we would like to inform you about "Telepolis - Exhibition and Symposium on the Interactive and Networked City" in Louxemburg, November 3 - 12, 1995. Second we consider this form of electronic publishing an autonomous medium, which we try to demonstrate through an appropriate presentation.

The Telepolis W-3 site is divided into three sections. Under "Information" you will find basic facts concerning the exhibition (schedule, whereabouts, and information about our partners. We kindly invite you to register or to subscribe to a mailing list. "Telepolis" stands for a detailed preview of the exhibition and the accompagnying symposia. In the "Telepolis-Journal" you can look up the discussion on culture and theory in the Internet. This journal is still expanding and you can take part in it by sending us your opinion or articles.

We started the Telepolis W-3 site in March 95 with only a few plain text pages. But soon it began to show a dynamism of its own and we are happy about the positive feedback. Well, there was a misunderstanding: Telepolis on the WWW is not another virtual city like the "Digital City Amsterdam" or "International City Berlin". To us Telepolis represents a theorical and organizational reservoir for all innovative digital city projects.

We hope that our Telepolis pages will stay an interesting meeting point in the Internet!

Telepolis Projektmanager
