Welcome to Monoskop, the research-in-progress wiki devoted to the European digital territory.

The project resonates within the geography of Europa, the context of digital media, and enjoys the existence of the centers of paneuropean digital life. The point here is to look at the dynamics, activities of individuals and groups rather than static terms or definitions of ideologies.

Site-specific phenomena are of the highest interest in Monoskop. Local, unique, unrepeatable.

In the age of mobility, when the audience, public, author, original are of no usage anymore, the nomads use digital media. Communities, collaborations, contributions rather than disconnection and autonomy. Detour the nods of the home-is-where-my-harddisk-is travellers, strangers, outcasts and share the digital landscape you experience.

Monoskop is neither a database, nor an overview, manual, reference guide, collection, nor a pexeso, rather an unstable ground, a pact of dissonance, shaking the axis of a digital everyday.
