*Apologies for cross-posting*

Hi,

I'm forwarding this press release to inform you about the launch of
ArtsElectric, a new online calendar and information center for media
arts
and new music. ArtsElectric was created to provide a much needed
centralized location where we can promote these fields to the public and
provide up-to-date event information for all of us.

ArtsElectric was also formed to promote artists and presenting
organizations to the general public. If you're an artist or if you
present artists to the public, have a look at

If you'd like to have your events listed in the calendar, or if you have
any other questions, please feel free to contact me or write to
arts@arts-electric.com.

Albany, New York, April 22, 2002 - Intelligent Arts, Inc. announces the
launch of ArtsElectric, a new on-line calendar, internet directory, and
information resource for new music and media arts.

"Our mission is threefold," says Joel Chadabe, composer and president of
Intelligent Arts, Inc. "We want to share our enthusiasm with the general
public about the fascinating cutting-edge developments in music and art
happening in today's world. We will promote the musicians, artists, and
producers who are creating and presenting this music and art. And we
will
provide a central information resource for curators, presenters, and
other professionals who need to know what is happening in these fields."

Event and artist information is provided to users through: a regularly
updated and dynamically searchable database; feature articles focused on
key people, projects, issues, and events; highlighted mentions on
important pages within the site; and a monthly email newsletter.

All articles and features will be archived, indexed, and kept accessible
indefinitely.

The internet directory will direct users to websites of other resources,
organizations, and media centers, as well as associated artists and
presenters.

ArtsElectric also introduces the Artists' Guide to the World, a database
listing artists' restaurant and hotel recommendations, travel tips, and
other travel-related information. The Artists' Guide to the World, a
travel resource for artists on the road, will grow into an informative
