DESCRIPTION:Children from around the world can again win top honors and prize awards 
 for their participation in "KidCast for Peace; Solutions for a Better 
 World," happening for the 12th time on April 20 and 22.  The 
 videoconference and gatherings will connect those in schools, at home and 
 global Earth Day events. All children-at-heart are invited to participate 
 by creatively responding to the question they put to adults: "How would you 
 make Earth and its peoples, happier, healthier, and more peace filled?" You 
 can share suggestions in any form of art, prose, poetry, song, music, 
 performance, etc. and participate with (or without) free videoconferencing 
 software at any time. Instructions and gatherings will be announced in 
 KidCast Central: http://creativity.net/kidcast2.html.  Global Community 
 participation is encouraged as always in this "living art gallery" event on 
 both days. For more information contact: kidcast12@creativity.net, visit 
 the web site or call the KidCast for Peace office: (808) 875 
 4747.\n\nKidCast for Peace is a live interactive edutainment event, 
 multimedia art show, Web site competition and experience/happening that 
 dissolves boundaries of time and space. KidCast For Peace was the first 
 ever World Wide Web videoconference for children, sanctioned by educators 
 and corporations.  The project now in its ninth year has connected over 200 
 children in schools, homes and cyber cafes from California, Texas, 
 Amsterdam, Singapore, Croatia, Belfast, Hawaii (in a submerged submarine no 
 less), and elsewhere since 1995.\n\n"KidCast for Peace is helping to build 
 smart kids, not smart bombs," offers KidCast Coordinator, Peter H. Rosen. 
 He founded Visionary Artists Resources Including Other Unique Services 
 (V.A.R.I.O.U.S. Media, 501c3) to produce edutainment experiences for a 
 prototype "New School for the Next Millennium"\ncalled Creativity Café.  
 “This is an Edutainment  \nFactory.” According to Mr. Rosen, “Our 
 intention is to provide neighborhood access to technology and facilitate 
 the public’s creative expression. This brings opportunities which help 
 kids (and adults) develop self-esteem, communication and job skills. We are 
 delighted to see desktop broadcasters and multimedia producers everywhere 
 (the new media storytellers) creating more positive edutainments that help 
 generations evolve in fun and friendly ways!"\n\n
