		     THE LABORATORY FOR EXTENDED MEDIA
		Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Victoria
	presents IMAGE*SOUND*TEXT, an Arts and Technology Symposium

Recently, the University of Victoria's Faculty of Fine Arts Laboratory for
Extended Media opened its doors in the newly constructed Fine Arts Building.
To celebrate its beginnings, the Faculty of Fine Arts organized an arts and
technology symposium.  Open to all members of the university and the public,
the various events took place over a six-week period in January and February
of 1993.

Many of you already know about this symposium, and several people have asked
whether or not the events were videotaped.  Yes, all events were taped, and 
we are currently considering editing these tapes and making them available at
cost to whomever is interested.  However, before doing this editing project, 
we wanted to get some idea of how large the demand would be.  If you think you 
would be interested in having one or more of these tapes, please email me and 
let me know.  We have the following footage:

Jaron Lanier--lecture, interview and footage on Virtual Reality.
