DOCAM ¹03 is the first annual meeting of The Document Academy, a

The aim of  The Document Academy is to create a space for experimental and
critical research on documents in a wide sense drawing on traditions and
experiences around the world.
As a starting point everything produced by a human being using some
instruments in certain ways, can be considered as a document. It includes
writing, music, images, architecture. clothes, etc.
That means that the Academy is open for scholars, artists, businessmen,
students and many other kind of people attempting to do the very best at the
same time as one is still making "work in progress".
