Hi all,
Thank you for sharing your work on this. I am intrigued by the
methodology, do you plan to expand on the number of 23 respondants?
Also, the 'one liners' towards the end are interesting teasers but it
would be useful to let participants expand on their thoughts on the
matter, otherwise some come accross as lazy attention grabbers. The one
about media arts being obsolete because kids do circuit bending in
kindergarten comes to mind (even though I am now very curious about
pre-school programs in Norway).
To continue on the rosy picture Chris Salter paints about Canada, here
is a posting for a teaching position at the École des arts visuels et
médiatiques (Montréal).

teach in French)

> It is no mere coincidence, that the study was commissioned at a time of

> trends can be recognized across several countries.
