Port Logo
PORT is an exhibition of networked digital worlds on the Internet
 organized by artnetweb. Scheduled, time-based Internet projects by
individuals and groups will be projected into the physical gallery space and
accessible over the Internet during the duration of the exhibition. This Web
site and the PORT-MIT listserv have been created to identify potential
participants and document the exhibition process. Scroll down for more
information.


PORT has ended its stay at the MIT List Visual Arts Center. A printed catalogue is in preparation and this Web site will remain as documentation.

Thanks to everyone who participated. We are in the planning stages for future PORT projects and we hope we will be working with all of you again soon.

Best regards,

Robbin Murphy
