As an organisation, Moscow MediaArtLab has existed since May 2000. It was launched by an initial group consisting of Alexei Isaev (art director), Olga Shishko (curator), and Tatiana Goryucheva (coordinator) in fall 1998 and primarily had the status of a special program of the former Soros Center for Contemporary Art in Moscow. The general idea was to establish an information and research center whose task would be to stimulate development of media art in Russia through the accumulation of information exchange between Russian and international media communities, as well as through elaborating a platform for critical and innovative approaches to the use of new technologies within the cultural context.

The first project of MediaArtLab was two parallel Internet festivals organised in spring 1999. Da-Da-Net, an international festival of net art projects, and Trash Art. In July 2000 MediaArtLab held Media Forum in the frame of the XXII Moscow International Film Festival, since then it is an annual event.
