Re: [NetBehaviour] Departure day, Tahrir 1-8 (after Don Delillo)

2011-02-05 Thread James Morris
Hi David,

Between working on the factory floor and computer programming as a
hobby I've had little time to take much notice of the news and events.

So I scrolled down past the images you post about here. to the line drawings.

Then I come back to the post and read what you've said and then go
back and look at the images from Al Jazeera and see your lines again.

Thanks for posting.

James.

 Dear list,

 for my first ever post, here is an attempt to convey/portray/assess
 something of:
 - the making of the collective perception of what may be referred to, a
 posteriori, as a major event;
 - how this is mediated through our engagement with some sort of mass media;
 - in turn how the experience becomes the event itself;
 - how the medium and its limits (technical or otherwise), inherent
 artefacts, may play the lead part in framing our experience of the event;
 - and more on aesthetics, abstraction, technology, the representation of
 politics in art, painting...

 Departure day, Tahrir 1-8 (after Don Delillo) http://dpppstl.tumblr.com/

 The starting point is, of course, the events in Egypt, today's gathering,
 the expectation that it may have significant political impact, or not; then
 Don Delillo's work, Underworld in particular: this where were you when IT
 happened? question and the related how did you hear about it?, the radio,
 the cathode tube, the photograph clipped from a newspaper; and of course my
 own experience following these events through online media, in this case
 live TV broadcast by Al Jazeera.

 Departure day, Tahrir 1-8 (after Don Delillo) is a collection of screenshots
 of Al Jazeera's live coverage, taken during and shortly after today's prayer
 on Tahrir Square, Cairo.

 While some of the pictures clearly refer to the event and are open to
 interpretation, emphasising the complexity of engaging with the events
 remotely as we are still assessing contradicting analysis witnessed through
 mass media coverage; others are more strikingly abstracted to the point of
 bringing the medium to the foreground, and may be assessed aesthetically
 rather than for their informative coverage of the events.

 The work can be seen there: http://dpppstl.tumblr.com/

 Best

 David

art. He produced his first works in 1963. Frieder Nake is Professor
for Compter Graphics and Interactive Systems at the University of
Bremen, Germany, and has had a long involvement with digital art.
Primarily a mathematician, Nake’s colored computer drawings in 1967,
for example, explored the visual expression of series of matrix
multiplications, imagery that has an undeniable artistic intention. He
has contributed to all major exhibitions of computer art, including
Cybernetic Serendipity in London (1968), tendencies 4 in Zagreb
(1968), and the long lasting Goethe Institute show during the 1970s.

[NetBehaviour] The Community Blog Stream on Furtherfield.

2011-02-05 Thread marc garrett
The Community Blog Stream on Furtherfield.

Since changing the Furtherfield web site, there have been so many new 
things added it has been hard to catch up with it all.

It is a much more open platform now. Not just that, it is obvious many 
have instinctively taken advantage of this in various creative ways - 
which is of course what it's about.

So, this is a good time to mention 'The Community Blog Stream'. 
http://www.furtherfield.org/blogs

This is a place where you can post your current ideas, thoughts, 
writings and images etc, it is then immediately seen on the front page 
by the community and web site visitors.

Claim it, have fun and get your noise out there:-)

Wishing all well.

[NetBehaviour] Arctic Conquistadors: Olga Kisseleva is mapping the Arctic.

2011-02-05 Thread info
Arctic Conquistadors: Olga Kisseleva is mapping the Arctic.

The digital animation ARCTIC CONQUISTADORS examines the tensions and 
conflicts characterizing the Arctic today. The Arctic space is being 
re-mapped / re-drawn / re-appropriated by the traditional stakeholders 
and newcomers, be it private or state-owned corporations, governmental 
or non-governmental bodies. The artist reflects on how the current 
situation is effected by the overlapping interests of geopolitical and 
corporate powers, referring to the 'global conquests'. 
http://2011.barentsspektakel.no/

Kisseleva's work answers the question who is the Arctic today? First, 
logos of the companies appear where they are now located. Then the logos 
start invading the whole map following the rhythm that echoes rapidly 
growing activities in the Arctic.

To build 'Arctic Conquistadors' she is working with the Departments of 
Economics and Political Sciences of Sorbonne. They cooperate with the 
Business and Industry Advisory Committee of the OECD, the Norwegian 
Barents Secretariat, the International Barents Secretariat and Platform 
(London).

Other artists invited to produce the works for the exhibition MIND THE 
MAP! within the festival Barents Spektakel 2011 in Kirkenes are Morten 
Traavik (Norway) and Stefano Cagol (Italy).

Olga Kisseleva's approach to her work is much the same as a scientist's. 
She questions an issue, formulates a hypothesis, and proposes a solution 
to the problem. Besides being an artist, Kisseleva has always studied 
mathematics, physics and political studies. Thus, her artistic career is 
a constant search between art and science, art and sociology, art and 
psychology. Now Olga Kisseleva is Director of the ArtScience Program at 
the Faculty of Arts, Pantheon-Sorbonne University, Paris.

I know he did the drawings for many of Rene Laloux's early  
animations. Laloux said that after he had done the designs for their  
first feature film he dropped out of the production because his  
mother had told him that no good would come of it. The film was Le  
Planete Sauvage and became a huge international success. Laloux  
referred to her as his castrating mother.

Thanks for pointing to Saitinac!

Wondering if anyone else has read the bizarre and funny stories of him
(Topor)

Apart from being his novel 'La Locataire' on which Polanski's movie is
based, I remember him from being one of the French connected to  
Boris Vian

and sideways to Serge Gainsbourg

In a long forgotten time of liberation of the arts, in the  
seventies that

was.

Helas nowadays the guys who were young then grew, old and blocked the
entrance to freedom for the new generation, so they are having bad  
luck

now.

It is a shame that a lot of governors both in art politics and in  
-- hmm
-- 'real' politics forgot their youth and developed an extreme  
suppressing

grip on society.



...and..yes...if you like that kind of art that's under Topor's  
influence

[NetBehaviour] Current: An Experiment in collecting Digital Art

2011-02-05 Thread Ruth Catlow
The Harris Museum has announced their shortlist - the exhibition is from
26th March to 4th June 2011
Some wonderful work- should be good'n 
: )
Ruth

Press Release

The Harris Museum  Art Gallery in partnership with folly have today
announced five shortlisted artists for Current: An Experiment in
Collecting Digital Art. 

New and recent work by boredomresearch, Michael Szpakowski, James Coupe,
Thomson  Craighead and Harwood, Wright, Yokokoji will go on display at
the Harris Museum  Art Gallery from 26th March to 4th June 2011. 


The artists were shortlisted by an expert panel (including Kathryn
Lambert, Creative Director of folly, Mike Stubbs CEO of FACT, Ruth
Catlow, Co-founder and co-director of Furtherfield.org and HTTP Gallery
London, and Beryl Graham, Professor of New Media Art at the University
of Sunderland and co-editor of CRUMB). One artwork will be chosen by a
secondary panel for acquisition into the Harris' permanent collection.
This will be announced at the exhibition launch on Friday 25th March.


UK-based artists working in digital media were invited to submit work
which celebrates innovative and creative use of new media technology.
Each of the artists embraces technology in very different ways, from
live networked installations through to moving image and sound. They
have all exhibited internationally and are well respected within this
field of work.


This project is the first of its kind - a pioneering practical case
study in the collection of digital art which will encourage debate from
visitors, artists and sector professionals about the process of
integrating digital artworks into existing permanent collections.

Kathryn Lambert, Creative Director of folly said; 

We were delighted with the overwhelming response from artists for
Current, and are thrilled with the shortlist.  The chosen art works will
create an outstanding exhibition that represents the breadth of artistic
practice, enquiry and best work being created with art and technology in
the UK today.  All of the chosen art works will contribute to the debate
into the challenges of collecting digital art and we can't wait to find
out which piece is finally chosen for acquisition in late March by the
secondary expert panel.

Really beautiful - so nice to go into a painting and move around
inside it, especially such a familiar painting. But imagine if there
were things normally out of view that you only discover when exploring
this way, maybe hiding behind other things? Just a thought, but it
could add new dimensions, new meanings, to a 3d tour of a painting.

Created after hearing the news that a tapestry reproduction of Guernica, 
Pablo Picasso's powerful anti-war painting, was concealed behind a blue 
cloth and a row of flags at the U.N. Security Council offices as White 
House envoy Colin Powell was making the United States case for war 
(05/02/03). A UN spokesperson claimed that this was not censorship, and 
had been done to provide a suitable backdrop for TV cameras, that would
