Incubation 2000: a trAce International Conference on Writing and the Internet
For three days in July 2000 trAce provided a platform for the most essential voices on the web today. Writers, critics, theorists and web-artists came from around the world to speak at Incubation.

Stelarc Incubation Archive is the online record of this dynamic event. It includes audio, text and electronic versions of presentations and performances; information about contributors; a gallery of photographs taken over the three days, and the background of the conference itself.

Delegates enjoyed the opportunity to meet speakers and performers, network, and discuss and share ideas:

Margaret Penfold, Alan Sondheim, Christy Sheffield Sanford, Alan McDonald
"Incubation was great for putting names to faces, and to mingle with 'greats' whose work you admire."

"Many excellent presentations."


"Lots of interesting ideas to absorb and exchange in friendly-sized groups."

"...not just an academic event, but much more."

"...probably the best conference food I've ever had!"

Sue Thomas
"I'd recommend Incubation to friends and colleagues, not just for networking, but to get a flavour of what is happening elsewhere."

 

"A very interesting crowd, productive and fun atmosphere. I'm leaving with many new ideas and contacts."

Simon Mills, Mary Dawson, Leonie Wilson
"...a good learning experience for those of us still struggling with coping with the depth of our ignorance!"

"Thanks for a terrific conference!"
