OPERATIONAL PLAN

-The person coordinating the project publishes an announcement on the Internet inviting visual artists from different countries to participate; participants form groups made up of 2 artists who do not know one another. They are then put in contact with one another by e-mail.

- Each pair of artists must contact one another to work on building a joint project that should be based on the process of communication and interchange they are going to be involved in.

- Each pair of artists must set up a Blog, on a free virtual platform, to display the project they are creating and the process of interchange they are carrying out. In addition to the blog the artists can also optionally construct a project that is visual, uses sound, etc., that should be sent to the person responsible for the project, who will take care of organising an exhibition in a physical space in Chile, where printouts from the blogs constructed will be exhibited along with visual, sound, etc., projects.

- The artists must devise strategies to communicate and explain their points of reference and imagery. There will be a limited period of time for them to get to know one another, communicate and plan the project, using the means they prefer: e-mail, chat, telephone calls, etc.

- The idea is that the artists should explore and apply different artistic languages in building the projects. All media and languages are valid. For example, they can construct still images from a combination of one image from each one, or they can use sounds, construct a net art project, etc. They can even conceive the process itself as a project.

-Ideally, what is recommended is to construct projects that can be sent by some means other than conventional mail, such as e-mail, fax, etc., in order to avoid things getting lost. For this reason the person in charge of the project will handle sending things out. For example, if the artists decide to put together a graphic image which is to be printed, this can be sent on the Internet, and the person responsible will take care of printing and setting it up.

- In the course of the preparation of the projects, the person responsible for the project will serve as an intermediary, through e-mail, between the participating artists, assisting them in the process, settling doubts, providing references, etc.

- After the projects are sent to the intermediary, she will set up an exhibition with the projects that have been done and publish a document describing the project to the general public.
