GLI.TC/H 20111 AN INTERNATIONAL NOISE && [DIRTY] NEW-MEDIA EVENT/CONFERENCE/FESTIVAL/GATHERING Now in its second year, GLI.TC/H gathers a variety of participants + works + ideas from within glitch/dirty/experimental-new-media art communities into a multi-day & multi-format happening consisting of video screenings, real-time performances, workshops, lectures, panels, a gallery exhibition and on-going online components. Thinkers and artists; Makers and breakers converge to celebrate technological catastrophe. A glitch is a moment known to everyone but enjoyed by few. GLI.TC/H brings together those inspired/curious/provoked by glitches and provides a platform to break things, share thoughts, and develop ideas. GLI.TC/H will include works from over 100 participants from more than a dozen countries and will be taking place in virtual-space at http://gli.tc/h and in real-space from Nov 3 - 6 in Chicago, US; Nov 11 - 13 in Amsterdam, NL; Nov 19 in Birmingham, UK. Recent writings, works, and experiments in glitch art exemplify the potential of new-media-art to expose critical links within our (increasingly mediated) digital-culture. Last year’s conference brought a diverse and geographically scattered community together to discuss and share their works and ideas in real-time and real-space. The conversations had and connections made at GLI.TC/H 2010 have continued to develop virtually over the past year. GLI.TC/H 20111 will collate and celebrate these glitchy developments in an unstoppable multi-city event fueled by these chaotic communities and vibrant participants old and new. GLI.TC/H 20111 has been made possible by 146 online Kickstarter backers. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/glitch/glitc-h-20111ditdoit2gather // // // SCHEDULE: [Chicago, US] THU: Nov 3 @7pm -- GLI.TC/H Gallery Opening @MBLABS FRI: Nov 4 @7pm -- Real-time Performances/Executables/Events @ENEMY SAT: Nov 5 @11am -- Lectures & Performances @theNIGHTINGALE @1pm -- Workshops @theNIGHTINGALE @6pm -- GLI.TC/H Screening Program @theNIGHTINGALE @8pm -- Real-time Performances/Executalbes/Events @ENEMY SUN: Nov 6 @noon -- Politics in/of Glitch [panel + open forum] @MBLABS [Amsterdam, NL] FRI: Nov 11 @1pm -- Opening + Book Release Rosa Menkman "The GLitch Moment(um)" @STEIM @2pm -- Lectures Part I @STEIM @5pm -- GLI.TC/H Screening Program @STEIM @7pm -- GLI.TC/H Gallery Opening @PLANETART SAT: Nov 12 @11am -- Lectures Part II @PLANETART @1pm -- Workshops @PLANETART @8pm -- Real-time Performances/Executables/Events @STEIM [Birmingham, UK] SAT: Nov 19 @12pm -- Workshops @VIVID @3pm -- Lectures @VIVID @6pm -- GLI.TC/H Screening @VIVID @7pm -- Real-time Performances/Executables/Events @VIVID For more details visit: http://gli.tc/h + http://glidottcslashh.tumblr.com/ + https://www.facebook.com/glidottcslashh + @GLIDOTTCSLASHH [twitter] ### For more information and/or to schedule an interview please contact the gli.tc/h/bots at [email protected], Nick Briz [http://nickbriz.com] is a new-media artist/writer/thinker/educator/organizer living and working in Chicago, IL; organizer for Upgrade!Chicago, a monthly art and technology series held at the Nightingale Theater; as an educator he’s developed and taught courses on new-media art, Internet art + culture[s], remix art + culture[s] and experimental music; he developes digital/web/interactive projects for various clients with Branger_Briz.

Evan Meaney [http://www.evanmeaney.com/] is an american-born scientist who teaches time-based media design at the University of Tennessee.

Rosa Menkman [http://rosa-menkman.blogspot.com/] is a Dutch visualist who focuses on visual artifacts created by accidents in digital media. The visuals she makes are the result of glitches, compressions, feedback and other forms of noise.
