ars electronica PR

ARS ELECTRONICA has been immediately contacted by over 100 journalists on monday, sep 6, 1999; the morning after the email has been sent to over 89.000 individuals;

etxtreme.ru has contacted ARS officials to find out more... read the official dialogue...

official email by etxtreme.ru
reply by ARS ELECTRONICA

no official press statement has issued by ARS ELECTRONICA. no proactive contact was established between ARS and etxtreme.ru or involved individuals.

these old school pr_strategies are a reminder on past corporate strategies, way back in the 80s. since the 90s, it is generally known that this is the worst way to deal with attacks...

proactive use of such "free" PR could lead to a turn-around. but ARS ELECTRONICA [desperately trying to build up a strong brand for new media, radical media-art and network.art] seemd totally frozen, ... or they just thought our PR was strong and professional enough... we dont know... we dont care...
