No booking required. *15 MAY with COLM LALLY & VERINA GFADER : Condensation revisited: strategic walking / access to knowledge / economics of things / the locatable document / conversation pieces * In June 2007 Colm and Verina undertook a residency programme at the New Media Institute in Banff, Alberta, Canada. During the residency they expanded the notion of ?interface? associated with various forms of online communication and exchange, to other, perhaps more radical, forms of spaces between different entities. At the core of the non-methodical walking and other actions Colm & Verina undertook emerged the search for where a site of potential resides beside of technologies? restrictive mode of ex/inter-change and so-called collaborative or networked practices. Conceptual detours led their research into speculations on the substances of exchange and artistic agency. At The Thursday Club Colm & Verina will present a lecture, a 'document' of the process that their project Condensation took during the residency at Banff. This includes questions of: the necessity of temporary frameworks; the character of dialogical communication processes; the failure as a site of potential. In an informal setting the 'document' will take the format of a line, or ?walking? - of virtually making a tour through various landscapes... COLM LALLY is founder and director of E:vent. Since 2003 Colm has taken a hands-on role developing the E:vent programme, focusing on media art; video; performance; and electronic music. Colm was a co-organiser of Node.London 06 and is co-director of Arts in Action artists community. VERINA GFADER completed a practice-based Ph.D. in Fine Arts at Central Saint Martins College, London in 2006, and recently joined CRUMB (web resource for new media art curators) as post-doc research assistant. --- 29 MAY with RICHARD COLSON : Linking the Senses --- 5 JUNE with ALEX MCLEAN & DAVE GRIFFITHS : Live Coding --- THE THURSDAY CLUB is an open forum discussion group for anyone interested in the theories and practices of cross-disciplinarity, interactivity, technologies and philosophies of the state-of-the-art in todays (and tomorrows) cultural landscape(s).
