<p>During the last few years, Zebrastraat Ghent has developed into a stimulating knowledge center with a strong interest in art. Every two years the center organizes a biennial called update_, and the New Technological Art Award (NTAA) contest, which tries to fill in a gap in the mainstream art world, by paying attention to the technological developments that drive the global culture. NTAA selects and presents creations in which the culture-forming role of technology occupies a central place. Low or high tech, intuitive or experimental, the creations always draw everyone&#39;s attention to actual innovative trends. The exhibition of achievements of the selected winners is a compass that orients people to the relevant temporal and resilient use of technology in the artistic sector.</p><h3><strong>The mission of NTAA:</strong></h3><p>NTAA&rsquo;s mission is to expand the scope of contemporary artistic creations and traditional media with works using contemporary and new technologies in an original and intelligent way: treatment of sounds and light, use of new media, application of innovative evolutions in communications, telecommunications and broadcasting, centered on the world of information, communication, and computers and interaction.
