Hi,
We"d like to put out a call for high-speed research network
collaborators:
http://syneme.ucalgary.ca
We need addresses that are accessible to research networks for
experimentation.
Thanks,
Ken

Telearts is a new field of artistic practice enabled by high-speed
fibre optic research links that afford multiple artist/participants to
engage in real-time, high-definition, software supported telepresence
links. Support this by combining Art&D with Organized Networks and a
comprehensive research agenda emerges that well supports a sustained
exploration into Telemedia Arts practices.
The objective of this program focuses upon the parallel, symbiotic
development of new Telemedia Arts works and the design of a network
user interface (NUI) for supporting the creation of expressive
telepresence on high-speed research networks (Internet 2). We are
driven by questions that will lead to new use-cases (categories or
genres) for artists active in the new medium of Telearts; how can we
make this artist more productive. The last-generation of media tools
were made for stand-alone environments, isolated CPU’s, and slow
networks (World Wide Web). What do lessons learned from the last 20
years of Network Art on slow networks teach us as we move into real-
time, high-bandwidth scenarios? Telearts is more essentially a social
phenomenon then the previous generation of computer based tools and
media arts practices.
