Artistic mapping and the sea

This proposal is a talk on the artistic mapping developed on Ecoarte group (www.ecoarte.info) in the last few years. The focus of these mappings is the sea that surrounds us and the way we perceive it. The mappings to be presented “Geographies of the Sea #Islands”, “Electrotravelgram Sensorium”, “Ma:res”, “Digital Narratives” – were developed using free software and hardware.
