FLUXLIST: HOST: Beagles and Ramsay - Unrealised Dreams

2003-10-13 Thread Chris Byrne
New Media Scotland presents a new project for HOST:

Beagles and Ramsay - Unrealised Dreams

http://host.mediascot.org

Beagles and Ramsay have produced books of drawings in the style of 
Leonardo da Vinci which outline a number of proposals for possible 
future artworks, public sculptures, exhibitions, foodstuffs and 
musicals.

Originally a posterwork commissioned for Zenomap, a presentation of 
art from Scotland at the Venice Biennale 2003, Beagles and Ramsay 
have transformed Unrealised Dreams into an online hypertext archive 
of visionary ideas. This work for HOST forms part of the exhibition 
Welcome Back, at Stills Gallery, Edinburgh, 4 October - 21 December 
2003.

John Beagles and Graham Ramsay live and work in Glasgow and have 
exhibited together as Beagles  Ramsay since 1996. Their work 
encompasses installation, video and print publications, often 
constructed around character driven narratives where the artists cast 
themselves in absurdist roles or macabre situations. Recent 
exhibitions include: Dead of Night, at Gasworks Gallery, London  
Collective Gallery, Edinburgh; Videodrome at the New Museum of 
Contemporary Art, New York; Burgerheaven at YYZ Artist's Outlet, 
Toronto  De Fabriek, Eindhoven.

HOST is a space on the New Media Scotland web site dedicated to 
projects by artists. Earlier projects also available to view on HOST 
feature a range of Scottish and international artists including Mike 
Stubbs, slateford, Katrina McPherson  Simon Fildes, *candy factory, 
Luci Eyers, Dane, Torsten Lauschmann, Lindsay Perth, Claude Closky 
and Roshini Kempadoo.

Unrealised Dreams web site design by Simon Payne. Supported by 
Scottish Arts Council, British Council Scotland, New Media Scotland, 
Stills,  Si-Lo Design.

RE: FLUXLIST: UMBC symposium

2003-10-13 Thread LeClaire, Candace
 Owen - 
 Would love to attend, but I actually have tix to Patti Smith that
 night...You'll be so close to Philly - it's a cryin' shame!  Maybe next
 time...Duchamp is waiting. Sounds like a grand event, not to mention
 collection!  I'll get down there to see the exhibition, though.  Good
 luck.  Also - good luck with your newly-vamped position at UMO!

Re: FLUXLIST: performance with stones

In December, the Austin New Music Co-Op will present an evening of 
performances using stones and rocks. Pieces by John Gibson, Christian 
Wolff, Pauline Oliveros and NMC members will be performed. Outside the 
performance space, there will be a number of installations using 
rocks. I am thinking about doing an installation/performance (I will 
also be performing in the ensemble). My idea is to kneel down by a 
pile of stones and a sign that reads let he who is without sin cast 
the first stone.

This is a simple idea (although rich in implications), and I am sure 
it has been done before. But who? When? Where?
For their project, a group of conceptual art students at Cornell in 
Ithaca, NY, 1974, rented a school bus and took students and faculty up 
to a quarry where we had a performance play. It started with stoning 
an outcast. The outcast went into a pit and everyone threw what they 
could find. Only problem was people got really into it, not like in the 
rehearsal. I was the outcast getting stoned and remember getting 
really scared and adrenaline rushing. That stopped and we scrambled up 
a cliff. It was a little like the Magical Mystery Tour and there 
everyone was at the top of the cliff. Something drew me to the edge and 
I recall thinking how easy it would be to just jump -- as part of the 
performance! Luckily something drew me back more and I didn't. So we 
all scrambled down again, sat in an oval and smoked a real peace pipe.

There was much more to this, but as the outcast (self-appointed?) I 
not entirely cognizant of the script though there was also audio and I 
still have a recording somewhere.

Not as simple as a rock pile and glass wall, but related.

Hello, I'd appreciate your feedback or just if you were able
to connect/listen... for my first attempt at continuous
audio streaming (undisclosed field recordings) -

[all I can muster at this point is 33kbps for each of three
listeners, but the quality seems appropriate -- listen to
