SqueakNic 4: 30.11.2002  Karlsruhe/Germany
-------------------------------------------

What is a SqueakNic ? It's something like a mix beetween a picnic and
a coding party around Squeak and Smalltalk. The idea is to show what
you want around Squeak (demonstrations, tools, research projects, ...)
in a very friendly environment around computers (and pizza ?). We
invite all Squeakers and other developpers from all Smalltalk flavors
to join this event to share their enthusiasm and knowledge.

The Center for Art And Media

 As a cultural institution, the Center for Art and Media (ZKM) in Karlsruhe
 holds a unique position in the world. It responds to the rapid developments
 in information technology and today's changing social structures. Its work
 combines production and research, exhibitions and events, coordination and
 documentation.

 In a spacious ambiente, visitors can enjoy events and tours, view public
 exhibitions or visit the Mediathek. The Center is a platform for
 experimentation and discussion, with a mission to participate actively in
 working towards the future and engage in the ongoing debate about the
 sensible and meaningful use of technology.

If enough people are interested, I can organize an english-language guided 
tour of ZKM.
