The digital sparks higher education competition took place for the first time in 2001.
In preparation for the first competition, lecturers from 60 different
[link 01] higher education establishments in Germany and Switzerland were contacted and asked to select the three best student projects from their faculty for the years 1999 - 2001 and to submit these online to the netzspannung.org Internet platform with the students involved. A total of 52
[link 02] projects were submitted. A
[link 03] preliminary panel of judges drawn from the fields of media art, media design and IT nominated 23 projects. The
[link 04] final panel of judges awarded prizes to three projects. Prize winners were given a
[link 05] production grant to develop their work at the MARS-Exploratory Media Lab.
