- Krabstadt is a small town located somewhere in the Arctic where the Nordic Countries send their unwanted people and problems. It’s populated by the long-term unemployed, asylum seekers, immigrants, and those with too many overdue bills. Recently, Krabstadt has absorbed an influx of unemployed artists with PhDs, burned-out artist-teachers/teacher-artists, and institutionally stuck creatures. The local Krabstadt government seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and opened an Education Center to push Krabstadt to the forefront of education. The journal and subsequent events linked to KEC seek to establish webworks that conflate online with onsite to create platforms for learning, real and imagined.
