The First International Symposium on Electronic Art (FISEA) was held in Utrecht, the Netherlands, September 27 - 30, 1988.

ANAT successfully attracted funding and help in kind from the Australian Film Commission, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, the Australia Council, Telecom and the Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade to enable the participation of a fully sponsored Australian cultural delegation of seven artists and art workers.

In addition, another ten Australians attended the symposium under the ANAT umbrella.

ANAT’s participation at FISEA marked Australia’s visible entrée into the international community of art and technology.
