live and cyberspace networking salons featuring educational entertainment

work, where creative people, using the marriage of art and state-of-the-art
technology, learn from each other and have a forum for showcasing their
work and profiting from their talents.

Mission

inspire and empower the public in both CyberSpace and in communities around
the world by providing affordable access to technology and instruction;  by

human beings. To create and propagate life enhancing edutainment in the
mass media.  To provide neighborhood facility(s) where the tools of today
can serve the leaders of tomorrow. A place to assist you to discover
the personal benefits of the communication revolution in ways where "Strangers, 
are just friends who haven't yet met," and benefit your personal path direcly.

Objectives

families. A public  place to  bridge cyber and physical space where
personal tour guides hand-hold the technophobic and curious. To create and

staff and community members resulting from production, publishing and sale of
experiences and products we co-create . Digital storytelling tool education and
access. Produce interactive entertainments distributed in various media; to be

physical networking salons (V.A.R.I.O.U.S. Media Ink Artists  Showcase and 
Network); trade show installations, multimedia performances, traditional 
media, email, and Web programming.  Since 1980, in-kind support has come 
from leading technology corporations and organizations believing in our mission. 
We continue to develop alliances with cutting edge organizations, corporations, 
other electronic cafes and cyber-performance environments/advocates.
