Re: [NetBehaviour] ada lovelace day
I've been thinking a little about this, but with only a limited awareness of women within art and technology, there's not much I can add. (My awareness of men working with art and technology is only slightly more knowledgable). Certainly Mez has been an influence in some of my writings/list posts, and I love her graphics work (I'd love her to design an alternative set of icons for my game;-). Discovering about Delia Derbyshire and her early work with synthesis for the Doctor Who theme was exciting and inspiring. Two books I found very interesting to read were The Demon Lover - the roots of terrorism by Robin Morgan, and Bosch by Laurinda Dixon. James.

The S3 literaturswerke[2] group begins the evening at 10.30 pm and reads its provocative texts. After that we slowly fade from literature to music when at 0:30 Nina Blondich acts p0rn0pr0n, a reading about pornography, spam and technology. The live electronic band Phantom Crunch accompanies the voice with experimental noise music escorted by Un-defined visuals. At 1:00 Phantom Crunch[3] performs a live soundtrack to a short version of Fritz Lang's famous movie Metropolis cutted by Chiara Morcelli At 1:30 we proudly present you the latest Fantomton[4] release - Radarstation. Various artists used samples recorded at the radar station located on the Teufelsberg in Berlin. Each of them interpreted the material in their own manner, still retaining an overarching ambience. Beatstorm[5] will perform a vjset with some images of Teufelsberg. We still keep an experimental touch when Undergrind[6] plays his liveset at 2:00 am and the vjset of Beatstorm[5]. At 3:00 Initial Gain, an electronic band playing with tons of analougue equipment heats the room with dancable, intelligent music somewhere between acid, breakbeat, techno and ambient. Then Freifeld gets cosy but vivid when Radarfilm[7] plays his ambient/electronica liveact at 4:30.

Hi Rob, I think in regard to individuals contributing with names already suggested, what would make it even more valid is if a small contextual reason for the suggestion is given - because we all have our own personal reasons why we are influenced by such people. We can all easily add links names, but why are we interested in them?

[NetBehaviour] Hacker Space Festival 2009 | Call For Proposals
/tmp/lab announces the second Hacker Space Festival (Paris, 26-30 June 2009) Hacker Space Festival 2009 | Call For Proposals In 2008, we organized HSF[1] on the spot, as an ad-hoc meeting for hackerspaces-related networks, technical and artistic research emerging from them and social questionning arising from them. This sudden experiment proved to be a huge success, as much as on the self-organizing level as on the participants and meetings quality, as well as the emotionally-charged ambient, the kind of which you make fond memories. The 2008 edition generated a strong emulation in France, from its historical role as the first official hack meeting there, and in Europe with the subsequent creation of the Hacker Space Brussels[2], the rapprochement with The Fiber in Amsterdam and the hackerspaces.org[3] network. Initiatives of hackerspace openings in Grenoble or Lille, or the upcoming FrHack[4] conference show an actual enthusiasm in the French hackers community that was doomed to the underground not so long ago. We salute these initiatives and their diversity! Soon enough, we wanted to reiterate the HSF experience : however, it was out of the question to institutionalize this temporary autonomous zone, nor make it an ersatz of the previous edition, nor even to wrap it into an elite or underground aura. On the opposite, we ardently desire; and especially to explore further, in all directions some lesser known domains (see below) et foster meeting and sharing around experiences at the confluence of art, technology and politics. The world financial crisis, the decay of democracy in Europe, the obscurantism, paranoia and lack of culture presiding over legislation (Internet and Reaction... Err... Creation Law[5][6]) seem a fertile environment for the sensible development of new (social...) life forms. Quick! Let's rest for a few days in jubilation and ecstasy to take a deep breathe of freedom under the indelicate smells of the medicine factory nearby! For if the public space is shrinking to oblivion, where any side-step becomes suspect, and that, from an early age (deviant behavior detection in nursery school), where moving without a mobile phone becomes suspect (hello you Julien Coupat[7], a French political prisoner in France!), there's a domain that the Leviathan would have a lot of trouble to contain, and for a reason: that of sensitivity. Even the desperate attempts of the State to block the free and premonitory expression of sense (hello you Demeure du Chaos![8]) cannot do anything against a loud laughter or a knowing glance, a sensual kiss or an explosion of colors. Sensitivity, we could say, is what is left to a human being when she has nothing anymore, and differenciates her from the body corporate or the institution, that are, in essence, devoid of it. Therefore, Art definitely remains the public space to share between humans, and only between us. And if it the last one to share, we propose to explore it and take it over during the upcoming edition of the Hacker Space Festival, from the 26th to 30th of June, 2009 at Vitry sur Seine[9].

[NetBehaviour] Eifachfilm Cacirca's installation (and some changes in mine) in SL
Eifachfilm Cacirca's installation (and some changes in mine) in SL There's an installation by Eifachfilm Vacirca in Second Life - if you go to my installation at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Odyssey/48/12/22 then go to the area to the right with the strange texture - there's a three or four story floating environment I like a great deal - do check it out - as well as the texture itself - http://slurl.com/secondlife/Odyssey/72/45/58 might work directly. Sugar Seville did the ground, Gazira Babeli did the meteors. Ian Murray's OCAD campus is in the background. All of this is really worth seeing; I've spent quite a while with Einfachfilm's piece. Some images of hir installation along with Sugar's textures and in relation to mine at http://www.alansondheim.org/ eingazugar pngs. (Some images and video of the dynamic aspects of my installation as of yesterday at alansondheim.org - brb pngs and especially brb.mp4. All of these are the latest, so at the top of the directory if you click the date twice.) Eifachfilm's installation exists on four levels, but there are ghost falls reflecting the natural world, that reach the ground and below. It's spikey and moody and it's good to stay awhile.

Re: [NetBehaviour] Furtherfield in Support of Ada Lovelace Day
Hi All! I've had this on my to do list all week and am finally getting to it... Some of mine have already been mentioned, but I hope it doesn't hurt to mention them again... MY NAME: Rachel Beth Egenhoefer URL: www.rachelbeth.net 5 WOMEN I THINK ARE AMAZING: Katherine Hayles I know she's been mentioned already... How we became Post Human is one of my favorite books. In addition to being incredibly smart, ahead of the curve, able to make an argument and stand by it, I can say from personal experience that she is one of the most lovely academics to meet in person. I had the honor of working with her when she was at UCLA and I was always amazed at how down to earth and easy going she was. Able to sip a soda, make jokes, and talk about the news, and then go right into intense theory about the printing press and reading novels on mobile phones. FYI, she is now at Duke University - http://fds.duke.edu/db/aas/ Literature/n.hayles Martha Rosler In one of my very first video classes back in undergrad we watched Semiotics of the Kitchen and I was hooked. Today some of my students find this video boring (not enough whiz bang for them I guess) and it frustrated me that they can't put themselves in the time period that it was made and see it as an exploration of trying to figure out what the medium was and what it could do. In addition to her early videos she has written and edited numerous essays and books. She is still making work in New York and teaching at Rutgers University. Sandy Stone (aka Allucquere Rosanne Stone) Along with Sadie Plant who has already been mentioned, her texts are some of my favorites. Split Subjects, Not Atoms; or, How I Fell in Love with My Prosthesis is an oldie but a goodie and I think way ahead of it's time. I think she brings an interesting addition to the list as a transgendered individual.

Re: [NetBehaviour] Furtherfield in Support of Ada Lovelace Day
Rachel Beth, this is a fantastic list! Imagining that these women inspire you, I am even more pleased to think of you teaching at the University of San Francisco - where I started learning programming in basic in 1977, at which point it was made quite clear to me that as a female liberal arts student (dressed in the uniform of the day for intellectual women, namely tattered jeans and my brothers' old shirts), I was anything but welcome in the computer science department. I can easily imagine you inspiring your students today - and passing on that kind of inspiration is what really matters. Now that I have finally subscribed to this mailing list, I have a list of inspiring women in my head as well - just need to get it into a non-telepathic form. Thank you Ruth and Marc for the invitation, Aileen On Friday 27 March 2009 18:46:31 Rachel Beth Egenhoefer wrote: Hi All! I've had this on my to do list all week and am finally getting to it... Some of mine have already been mentioned, but I hope it doesn't hurt to mention them again... MY NAME: Rachel Beth Egenhoefer URL: www.rachelbeth.net 5 WOMEN I THINK ARE AMAZING: Katherine Hayles I know she's been mentioned already... How we became Post Human is one of my favorite books. In addition to being incredibly smart, ahead of the curve, able to make an argument and stand by it, I can say from personal experience that she is one of the most lovely academics to meet in person. I had the honor of working with her when she was at UCLA and I was always amazed at how down to earth and easy going she was. Able to sip a soda, make jokes, and talk about the news, and then go right into intense theory about the printing press and reading novels on mobile phones. FYI, she is now at Duke University - http://fds.duke.edu/db/aas/ Literature/n.hayles Martha Rosler In one of my very first video classes back in undergrad we watched Semiotics of the Kitchen and I was hooked. Today some of my students find this video boring (not enough whiz bang for them I guess) and it frustrated me that they can't put themselves in the time period that it was made and see it as an exploration of trying to figure out what the medium was and what it could do. In addition to her early videos she has written and edited numerous essays and books. She is still making work in New York and teaching at Rutgers University. Sandy Stone (aka Allucquere Rosanne Stone) Along with Sadie Plant who has already been mentioned, her texts are some of my favorites. Split Subjects, Not Atoms; or, How I Fell in Love with My Prosthesis is an oldie but a goodie and I think way ahead of it's time. I think she brings an interesting addition to the list as a transgendered individual.

In many ways it was very disappointing. I walked out of an artist's performance by a dutch male that appropriated, colonised and belittled its orginal female author. I realise that I can't answer your question without writing a small thesis, which I don't have time to do. So some generalisations. The movement was strong in the seventies and a lot of ground was gained. I observe on a daily basis how this is being eroded away. We are going backwards. I think Australia still leads the world in many respects, but this is largely unrecognised. My European experience was that the women there are around 40 years behind but are unaware of this. An example, there are no public toilets for women in the Netherlands, this enforces an unofficial curfew on women, unless you are prepared to urinate in an alley, you have to be in-house outside of business hours. blakkbyrd back in Oz On 26/03/2009, at 9:56 AM, marc garrett wrote: Where are the women today? Is feminism dead? In 2007 on the Furtherfield blog, Caravia began an interesting and dynamic discussion asking the question Where are the women today? Is feminism dead? In view of the exciting and amazing appearance of many women on Netbehaviour, proposing other women's inspiring contributions to our cultures. I thought that some of you may find this discussion of interest. The funny thing is, I stumbled across this about 10 minutes ago whilst browsing through various posts on the furtherfield blog, and thought wow!

[NetBehaviour] two very strange plucked yayli tanbur solos
two very strange plucked yayli tanbur solos http://www.alansondheim.org/hev1.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/hev2.mp3 the tanbur neck is adjustable, as are the strings and bridge of course. the result is that there are a variety of ways to set it; i've lowered the action to the extent that i need to apply hiss control filtering to get rid of string rattle - on the other hand, this allows me to play faster and with more complexity. i'm clumsy on the quarter-tones, but i find resonant intervals among them that create melodic clusters. the tanbur itself has 48 frets; the yayli tanbur has 56. more images from odyssey-armageddon http://www.alansondheim.org/ arm pngs ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
