Panel Statement 

Panel: Three-space

In a world where graphics dominate the meeting-point of art and information processing systems, and where almost all our virtual reality scenarios are stuck in a visual mode, there is a largely overlooked realm which is more subtle, broad, and fertile than the merely sensorial. Shuck off that data helmet and those data-gloves a while, and consider a most fundamental virtuality: pseudo-organic behavior.

• Norman White (USA/Canada) Born in San Antonio, Texas in 1938, he moved to Canada in 1967, and became a Canadian citizen in 1974. Since 1966, I have experimented with electronics and logic in the context of art. His central interest has been the mimicking of organic/self-organizing system.
