The INST-World-TV is being tested since autumn 2008. In the meantime the technique and the technology are available. Its inauguration was on the 16 February 2009 with the film „Der Weg in den Tod“ [ The way into death ] – a world lecture with the Wiener Vorlesungen and the Volkshochschule Brigittenau at the 70th anniversary of the death of Jura Soyfer in the concentration camp Buchenwald (he died on 16 February 1939/ see the publication about him in the INST-book series: Die Lebendigkeit Jura Soyfers (The liveliness of Jura Soyfer).
On 15 July 2009 the Rector of the Kabardino-Balkarian State University University (KBSU), Prof.Dr. Barasbi S. Karamursow, and the Scientific Director of the INST, Dr. Herbert Arlt, concluded a contract to establish a world museum of the mountains at the foot of the highest mountain in Europe (the Elbrus with 5.643m). The project pages in German, Russian and English will be accessible by the end of August. The link to the „World Museum of the Mountains“ will be found under http://www.inst.at/deutsch/projekte.htm There one will also find a film which documents the presentation of the project before the scientific council of the KBSU.
Further the book series were extended and the INST-world publishing house will be showcased in 2010. Its goal is to offer a not-profit-platform for scientific and artistic publications – as an alternative to publishers who transform work of knowledge producers and tax money into private profit.
Highlight of the INST-activities will be a virtual conference from 25 to the 28 November 2010, where a million participants are expected. This conference will be prepared from the 4 to the 7 October 2009 at an INST-Strategy-conference in Baden near Vienna. The goal will be to position knowledge productions in societies regionally as well as transnationally, so that they can achieve their own mission.
As can be seen in the update infos of the various areas (see above), we have in the meantime held the INST-conference " Innovations and Reproductions in Cultures and Societies" with 5.200 participants from about 80 countries. The contributions presented at the conference are published continuously in TRANS 16. Furthermore we presented the EU-project VUNW (Virtuality and new structures of knowledge / sponsorships by MA 27, MA 7, EFRE-funds) for the first time in public during the IRICS-conference (Exhibition, plenary contributions, section contributions). The VUNW-project will be a part of the IRICS-documentation: http://www.inst.at/burei/CBand6_eng.htm, which will be presented from August 2006 in more than 40 countries: http://www.inst.at/termine/20062007.htm. It will be available for the first time on the 4th October 2006 within the scope of the "Vienna Lectures" at 7 p.m. in the Volkshalle in the Vienna town hall. Other new publications can be found in the INST-book series: http://www.inst.at/burei/index.htm
Beginning in August 2005 the INST-Homepage will appear in the six UN languages and German. You will find the documentation of the old Homepage as a CD in the publication "The Unifying Aspects of Cultures“. Also new here in addition to the use of seven languages is the new structure, the changed layout, the new update of the Search Engine and the expansion of various areas such as IRICS, TRANS and the Encyclopedia. The Update Info was also newly organized: with directions to lead you through your own Update Info to other areas of the Homepage.
