CONA Institute for Contemporary Art Procesing was established in 2007 by the musician and new media artist Brane Zorman and the architect and scenographer Irena Pivka. The institute owes its name to Cona [Zone], an ongoing series of engaged urban artistic projects related to migration issues that the duo has been developing since 2001.

Cona also produces the Beitthron electronic music project, run by Brane Zorman, and together with the Intima Virtual Base Institute coproduces the Ballettikka Internettikka series of web-based performances. Since 2008 Cona runs a temporary independent analogue radio station RadioCona which has become an important agent in claiming public radio-frequency space for artistic and broader social contexts.
