The events examined electronic media as a borderless guarantor of cultural diversification and national expression between Eastern and Western Europe.

Ostranenie was an international forum of exchange and debate held at the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation in Dessau. The events examined electronic media as a borderless guarantor of cultural diversification and national expression between Eastern and Western Europe. The Forum aimed at contributing to the structure of information and level of perception concerning electronic media arts as a function of the process of democratisation and cultural orientation in the post Cold War Europe of the late twentieth century.
Contents
The four Ostranenie events of 1993, 1995, 1997 and 1999 presented video works, multimedia installations, net-based projects, performances and discussion fora which reflected the historical Bauhaus' fusion of art and technology as a means of redefining the structure of a society in transition. By examining the transformation of cultural identities within the perceived stateless realm of electronic telecommunications, Ostranenie invited a debate into the role these media played in establishing a more socially and politically unified environment for the future.
The Forum's title - extracted from Viktor Shklovsky’s 1916 terminus priëm ostranenija - followed up on the Russian Formalist's call to establish a new vision through art via a shift in the perception of the social, cultural and living environment. Applied to the cultural and political estrangement brought on by the collapse of the Cold War world order in Eastern and Central Europe in 1989, Ostranenie reflected the state of societal transformation in this region through the complex role played by electronic media art and discourse. In societies whose fundamental structure had been increasingly influenced by the power of the broadcast image and network telecommunication, the function of the electronic media in defining cultural and political identities had become more significant than ever before.
