A Virtual Memorial
Memorial project against the Forgetting & for Humanity
http://www.a-virtual-memorial.org/start1.htm

is relaunched on 22 May 2006 after some time of reconstruction.

A Virtual Memorial
is an award winning networked media art project environment
created and curated by Agricola de Cologne
for the Internet as an ideal pleace for dealing dynamically with memory.

A Virtual Memorial is not just a memorial guide through the year
including monthly changing features connected to a selection of particiular memorial days
of national or international relevance, but basically also framework for a couple
of participatory and collaborative memorial projects like
Memorial for the Victims of Terror - http://terror.a-virtual-memorial.org
Memorial for the Victims of AIDS - http://aids.a-virtual-memorial.org
TSUNAMI Memorial -http://tsunami.a-virtual-memorial.org
and others,

but then also Violence Online, a project environment in form of an online festival
focussed on the phenomenon of violence and war, a project
which was active between 2002 and 2004 and presented on many festival and media art exhibitions,

and last, but not least also starting point and home of the legendary
[R][R][F]200X --->XP project environment
http://rrf2006.newmediafest.org,
a new media art project project dealing with "memory & identity"
& hosting numerous artists projects curated by invited curators,
VideoChannel - http://videochannel.newmediafest.org
is hosting the famous video collection, and
SoundLAB Channel , is an online environment focussed on soundart
http://soundlab.newmediafest.org,

incorporating also Agricola de Cologne's award winning
"Family Portrait" - http://familyportrait.engad.org
and
Women: Memory of Repression in Argentina
http://argentina.engad.org.

As the first of Agricola de Cologne's
Internet based projects starting in 2000,
A Virtual Memorial was until these days the inspiration
for many artists and encouraged them to work artistically with the subject of "memory",
many of such works are a precious and integral part of A Virtual Memorial.

A Virtual Memorial
follows the idea of an ongoing and dynamic art project
which has its basis not only online on the net,
but also offline manifested in numerous temporaryly limited installations in physical space.
The project is not just referring to the Past, but is basically reacting on most recent events
and social, cultural and politcial phenomena, and the rapid technological development.
