[NetBehaviour] Hello worl by Yunchul Kim Endo by Verena Friedrich
I'm preparing for the Breakthrough event that will take place in Berlin at the end of the month, and going through the list of the participants I found a couple of interesting projects. They might be almost antiques for some of you, but for some they might be inspirational... / Hello World - Yunchul Kim \ Hello world is an installation by Yunchul Kim that contains a codified audio signal that circulates in a closed (feedback) system, consisting of a computer, a speaker, 246 meters of copper tube and a microphone. By using the acoustic delay of the tube system, it is possible to store data. The longer the tube, the greater the time delay, which leads to greater memory capacity. In addition to this a screen shows a visual representation of the information traveling around the system. If a participant makes noises near the installation or hits the copper piping it interferes with the audio signal loop. http://www.khm.de/~tre/ / Endo - Verena Friedrich \ ENDO is a recording device equipped with various sensors, a computer mainboard and a terabyte hard drive. The object continuously gathers data of its direct surroundings like images, sound, GPS-coordinates, temperature, humidity and air pressure. The data flow is archived on the hard drive inside the Black Box and will never be extracted again. In the course of time the machine produces a huge pool of information whose content or usage remains unknown. Does the record serve for any secret intentions? Could it be exploitet to act against ourselves? Is this a trap? What remains is endless speculation - about the nature of information, the construction of medial reality, the ghost in the machine and a potential loss of control. http://heavythinking.org -- Olga http://www.ungravitational.net http://virtualfirefly.wordpress.com ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
[NetBehaviour] This Land is Your Land - anyone going?
Hiya, anyone in Scotland able to go to this? Would love to know more about it. cheers Ruth This Land is Your Land Saturday 6 June - Saturday 25 July 2009 11:00am - 6:00pm: FREE Venue: CCA 2 / CCA 3 / CCA 4 (cinema) / CCA Resource Room This Land is Your Land is a two-part exhibition exploring everything from the pleasure of planting a seed to issues of territory and national boundaries, inviting us to consider our relationship to the land we live on. Emerging from new outreach work in Drumchapel, comprising school gardening projects and community guerrilla gardening, from 6 – 19 June part one of the exhibition will be interactive, featuring a continuous series of talks, screenings and cookery, gardening and seed bombing workshops in the main gallery, looking at issues of self sustainability and living off the land. Glasgow School of Art Architecture students will present their visions for a community garden in Hamiltonhill; Stephen Watts from Sheffield will explain how to forage; Friends of the Earth will run swap shops and films screenings will look at Cuban urban farms, garden protests in Los Angeles, the work of seed activist, Vidana Shiva and the activities of agricultural corporate giants, Monsanto. CCA Director, Francis McKee says: “How land is used now and who has the right to access it has become a key issue in contemporary society. Ordinary people are challenging formal barriers to growing their own food, accessing land and controlling their own food supply. At the same time, the new discipline of psychogeography has led many people to reinterpret their urban landscape, navigate streets according to their personal histories, experiences and memories.” ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

[NetBehaviour] C.R.A.S.H Conversation 2 – On Art
THE LABORATORY OF INSURRECTIONARY IMAGINATION C.R.A.S.H Conversation 2 – On Art Toynbee Studios, London 05 Jun 2009, 7pm, Free (booking required) http://www.artsadmin.co.uk/projects/event.php?id=669 More and more artists are labelling themselves as ‘activists’ or ‘socially engaged’ yet few are actually engaged with radical social movements, preferring to work autonomously. Throughout history, when artists have applied their creativity to social movements, from Gustav Courbet’s work on the Paris Commune, via Sylvia Pankhurst designing suffragette actions, to the Situationist influence on May 1968, the outcomes have changed the world. Why do contemporary artists fear immersing themselves in radical social movements? In a time of crisis, where the alternatives proposed by social movements urgently need visibility, could permaculture’s emphasis on systems thinking and relationships help artists engage more deeply? Guest speakers: John Jordan is a co-founder of the Laboratory of Insurrectionary Imagination, creating events and experiences that fall between art and activism he applies creativity to social movements, from the Climate Camp, to the Clandestine Insurgent Rebel Clown Army, via Reclaim the Streets and other carnivalesque rebellions. James Marriott is a writer, artist, activist and naturalist. He is a Co-Director of PLATFORM, which since 1983 has brought together artists and activists to create projects and campaigns that help the struggle for ecological social justice in London, PLATFORM’s home, and distant elsewheres impacted by that metropolis. The C.R.A.S.H Conversations are three public discussions facilitated by the Laboratory of Insurrectionary Imagination (Lab of ii) as part of the C.R.A.S.H Course, which explore the relationships between art, permaculture and activism, and their role in providing radical solutions to the ecological crisis. Each evening focuses on a specific discipline and will be introduced by key proponents in the field. The Lab of ii project C.R.A.S.H – A Postcapitalist A to Z opens a space in which to imagine a postcapitalist future. As the future of our ecological life support systems hangs in the balance and we suffer the consequences of reckless economic fantasies, the question of what our future could look like has never been more vital. The Lab of ii will be experimenting with radical sustainable alternatives to the ecological and economic crises in the symbolic heart of the capitalist system, London’s square mile. Working with artists, activists and permaculturists C.R.A.S.H merges popular education, live art and direct action. The project begins with the C.R.A.S.H Course and Conversations, building skills of resilience and resistance with precarious and unemployed workers, and ends with C.R.A.S.H Contingency and Culture, a mystery night time journey to utopia and back, and a series of interventions across the City. -- Olga http://www.ungravitational.net http://virtualfirefly.wordpress.com ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

[NetBehaviour] Kurator and LX 2.0 INFECTED commission - vir.us.exe by carlos katastrofsky
KURATOR and LX 2.0 are pleased to announce the first of two commissions selected from an open call to infect the 2012 Olympics, as part of the Anti-Bodies contemporary art programme. vir.us.exe, carlos katastrofsky http://www.anti-bodies.net/vir.us.exe vir.us.exe is a windows program, communicated and spread by e-mail announcements, mailing lists and other networked (viral) press activities. katastrofsky explains that a virus lives upon the reproduction of itself with the aim to survive as long as possible. However, the most dangerous parts of such an infection are not always the harmful cells a virus is based upon; it is the psychological concept of fear acting invisibly in the background. The project thus strips down the mechanisms of a viral infection and transfers its core principles into the digital realm. By avoiding everything a virus should do, only the virus itself will be left. This way it will become a meta-virus spreading not because it is an actual virus but because it is perceived as such. vir.us.exe is commissioned by KURATOR and LX 2.0, as part of the Anti-Bodies programme co-ordinated by Relational with support from Arts Council England, granted the London 2012 Inspire mark as part of the Cultural Olympiad. KURATOR http://www.kurator.org LX 2.0 / Lisboa 20 Arte Contemporanea http://www.lisboa20.pt/lx20/ Relational http://www.relational.org.uk Anti-Bodies http://www.anti-bodies.net carlos katastrofsky is a Vienna-based artist working primarily in the field of new media art. His work examines the politics of Internet-based art production, distribution and consumption, and how dominant practices of the artistic modus vivendi - curating, dealing, showing, and reviewing- function in the virtual realm, where the immaterial has replaced the object. His works explore characteristic features of the Internet such as software, interfaces, language, and discussion forums - to question the current development of the Web. He is co-founder of CONT3XT.NET (2006) – a collaborative platform for the dicussion and presentation of issues related to Media Art. http://katastrofsky.cont3xt.net/ ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
