Hello to all,

Hope this email finds you well.

Recently, my works have been added to the archives of
the Centre of Canadian Contemporary Art.

You can view the list of Canadian Artists CCCA had
documented from the link below:

http://www.ccca.ca/search/s1-frame.html

Of course, don't forget to look at my pages under the
alphabetic listing 'C', with 52 images, including some
works from the 80s.

For you Canadian Artists, if you are interested in
being added to these archives, you can contact Bill
Kirby at: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have also updated my web site at
http://www.geocities.com/aocaamw take a look when you
have a chance.

Hope you all have a good day.

David

FLUXLIST: Fw: From: Hannah Higgins

2000-11-06 Thread Sol Nte


Date: 06 November 2000 15:54


Friends/Family/Fellow Fluxers,

Just a reminder...

"Betwixt and Between:  The Life and Work of Fluxus Artist Dick Higgins"
will be opening at the Columbia College Center for the Book and Paper Arts
at 1104 South Wabash from 5-7 pm THIS FRIDAY, November 10, 2000.  At 7:30,
there will be a performance in the Columbia College Recital Center at 1104
South Michigan Avenue.

For the first time, this exhibition combines Higgins's extensive output in
virtually all media (paintings, prints, video/film, performance, musical
notation, aesthetics, bedsheets).  This show is going to at least five
venues across the U.S. and should be interesting.  I have organized it with
Simon Anderson at The School and the center is publishing a chap-book ("The
Last Great Bear Pamphlet") for the occassion.

Please come if you are inclined or able.  If you cannot make the opening,
don't be shy.  I'd be hapopy to take you through when time permits.  Or, if
you are far away and not coming to Chicago, just give us a good thought on
Friday!

Love,  Hannah

IF ANNUAL PLANTS ARE BROUGHT INSIDE BEFORE THE FROST KILLS THEM WILL THEY
STILL GROW?  OR WILL THEY DIE BECAUSE THEY ARE ANNUALS?

I believe that annuals begin to flower and subsequently die off because of
the change to shorter daylengths around the end of the summer. If annual
plants are grown inside in artificial light then I would imagine that you
could keep them permanently in their spring/early summer  growth states by
never reducing the amount of hours of light they get. In which case they
should last longer than a year. I've never tried this though. It's probably
a worthy experiement if you have some spare electricity to power the
lights..or maybe you could grow stuff in a lit aquarium?

cheers,

Sol.




FLUXLIST: Plan Colombia virus v1.0

2000-11-06 Thread alan bowman

whilst trying to see if i could restore my jpegs, i opened an "infected"
file using Ultra Edit-32  a text/hex editor (i use it for making poetry -
grins sheepishly as admits that he doesn't know how to use a text/hex editor
properly)

there is no sign of the jpeg coding, just the virus script.  tried the same
with an mp3

interesting reading.  however what this sad, misguided individual, "Sand
Ja9e Gr0w" must realise is that - if i had not been messing around with a
program that i can just about use to rename filetypes, i would never have
realised that he/she was trying to clean up the streets of colombia by
cunningly destroying my jpeg and mp3 files.

a subtle approach methinks..

at 4:15 this morning i crept out of my appartment, went downstairs, outside
and hid a complete strangers bicycle around the corner, rolled up inside the
tubing of the frame i left a note demanding a ban on noise pollution
creating church bells.

ahem!

anyway

FLUXLIST: hopefully last virus related mail

2000-11-06 Thread alan bowman

hello again

sorry about this, but does anyone know how to retore my windows settings,
without having to reinstall windows?

this virus has effected the appearance of certain windows/folders/menus and
although everything seems to be working fine, certain simple tasks have
become awkward e.g. certain folders only work properly in full-screen mode.

any ideas?

yours hopefuly

FLUXLIST: Alternate Mach(inations): Netomat + glasbead; Friday Nov 10, 7pm

2000-11-06 Thread Crisarc2000

*For Immediate Release*

NetArt Initiatives presents: 

"Alternate Mach(inations): Netomat + glasbead"
(two works which challenge + explore how information and databases are 
interfaced and experienced as stand-alone applications and which utilise 
low-level coding)
Maciej Wisniewski and John Klima: live presentation
organised by Zhang Ga  Cristine Wang

Friday, November 10, 2000

Maciej Wisniewski:
"n e t o m at": http://www.netomat.net
is a meta-browser that engages a different Internet - an Internet that is an 
intelligent application and not simply a large database of static files. 
netomat(TM)dialogues with the net to retrieve information as unmediated and 
independent in form. Our current point-and-click navigation, rigid 
information distribution, and passive browsing of "authored" information in 
today's interactivity will be of little use when using netomat(TM). 

Maciej Wisniewski is an artist and programmer whose work focuses on the 
underlying social implications of technology and the network.  Netomat and 
his earlier projects ("m e t a V i e w ", "T u r n s t i l e  2", "S c a n l 
i n k", "J a c k p o t", and "T e l e - T o u c h") have been featured in 
online and offline exhibitions at Postmasters Gallery, New York; ZKM, 
Karslruhe Germany; ICA, London; Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; Guggenheim, 
SoHo; Johannesburg Biennial; and Benjamin Weil's ada'web.  Wisniewski studied 
toward a Ph.D. program at the Institute for General Linguistics and 
Computational Linguistics, University of Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden.

John Klima: 
"glasbead": http://www.glasbead.com
is a an ongoing exploration into sound/music interfaces implementing 
multi-user gaming technology. By manipulating an entirely graphical 3d 
interface, the collaborative sound interface allows players to upload and 
trade sample sounds without restriction as to content. Current bandwidth 
allows 20 online participants to manoever through glasbead simultaneously.   

John Klima is an artist and programmer who recently received the "Golden 
Lasso" award for Web3d RoundUp at the Siggraph computer graphics convention 
in New Orleans this summer. glasbead and other vrml works and installations 
have been exhibited at the ICC, Tokyo in New Media New Faces; Postmasters 
Gallery, NY; Viper Int'l Festival, Lucerne, Switzerland; European Media Art 
Festival, Osnabruck, Germany;

the years to come.
