Here a few lines about it:
"The Decentralized Networker Congress of
1992, Initially conceived by Networker H.R. Fricker,
and coordinated by Peter W. Kaufman
eventually involved over 500 artists from 25 countries and over 250
events.
The original text is as follows :
Decentralized World-Wide Networker
Congress 1992 (NC92)
Where two or more artists/networkers
meet in the course of 1992, a congress
will take place. The Decentralized
World-Wide Networker Congress will serve
as a meeting point for all kinds of
networkers. The meaning of the common
role as networkers should be the focus
of the discussion.
As Networking options have expanded
since 1992, and with the variety of media available to us now, we
seek to expand this concept, and while honoring Mailart and face to
face meeting, we are looking for all kinds of manifestations. Along
with H.R. Fricker, the Congresses originator, and our Honorary
organizer, we look forward to a re-energizing of these concepts, and
expanded interactions within the network.
During the days of November 2, 3, and
4, 2012 Exhibitions will take place in 6 locations, in 6
distinctly different time zones.
Galleries in Cornwall ( UK ), Odzaci (
Serbia ), Ponte Nossa (Italy), and Roanoke ( USA ) will host these
exhibitions as well as serve as Downloading sites and Documentation
centers, with abilities to Interact with performing Networkers
through Skype and Secondlife. Performances and activities will
be streamed live from all 6 locations using Bambuser and/or
Livestream. Please send Mailart, documentation of Congresses,
texts, collages, rants, postcards, poems, add and pass sheets,
mythologies, videos, slogans, photographs, diaries, artifacts,
envelopes, address lists, cassettes..."
