what does a machine diva look like? does she have a soul? are her friends electric? is she just after our robots? does she control this machine? would she make a good girlfriend? does she have a tail? This is the result of a week-long workshop as part of the IMA Salon, 16-23 July in Vienna. The workshop, led by Helen Varley Jamieson, is exploring the theme of “Machine Divas” through the medium of cyberformance - live online performance. The workshop participants and creators of the performance are Sara Schmidt, Julia Groeblacher and Eva Ursprung, with Suzon Fuks online and contributions from Marlena Corcoran, Annie Abrams and Miljana Peric. Thanks to Regina Lercher, Elisabeth Schimina for organising the workshop; to Reiner Kack for technical support, coffee and chocolate; and to Kunstraum for letting us play in this great space. The performance will be followed by a discussion that will be streamed via Ustream, at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/machine-divas. Machine Divas is an ongoing research and networking project initiated in 2007 by Eva Ursprung and Andrea Sodomka, to investigate woman artists using technology for their work in nowadays expanded “theater space“. http://ima.or.at/machinedivas/ helen : ) -- ____________________________________________________________ helen varley jamieson: creative catalyst [email protected] http://www.creative-catalyst.com http://www.avatarbodycollision.org http://www.upstage.org.nz http://www.writerfind.com/hjamieson.htm ____________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
