Re: [NetBehaviour] Is the history of art repeating itself ? A geopolitical analysis and comparison of contemporary art and electronic art

2011-11-02 Thread Simon Biggs
We don't need a ranking of digital artists - but I think there is one. It's 
just a secret ;)

Re: [NetBehaviour] Why Models Are Always Wrong

2011-11-02 Thread ruth catlow
Hi Rob,

I have been pondering and wondering along this line of thought for a 
while too.

We watched Copenhagen a couple of nights ago - a play by Michael Frayne 
that takes as its basis, the mystery surrounding the wartime meeting of 
Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg.

In the play Heisenberg says something like...

'applying maths to people is always interesting. 1+1 can equal so many 
different kinds of 2.'

I note in all large institutions a move towards measuring things because 
they can be measured - the data is then often presented as if there is 
only one kind of '2'. (the equations lend great swagger potential).

Diagrams (I suppose some of these are just another expression of 
equations) are just as dangerous.

I got myself- continue to get myself into all kinds of trouble taking 
network topologies too literally.

After all most social networks are not flat. A node is not a node is not 
a node and the links between nodes have different resistances and 
qualities (again whether social or material).

 >

Even if you have a perfect economic model with perfect data, calibrating
the model doesn't have a single answer. So even in a perfect world,
economic models can and will give incorrect answers..

<

My feeling is that economists understand this very well and that their 
models are systems for gaining and maintaining temporary advantage- just 
keep moving fast, inventing new refinements of the tools that only you 
have access to.

is it that scary?

: ?
Ruth
btw ps. if anyone has a copy of the Copenhagen play I'd really like the 
exact quote.

Re: [NetBehaviour] Is the history of art repeating itself ? A geopolitical analysis and comparison of contemporary art and electronic art

2011-11-02 Thread Eduardo Valle

Dear Simon,

The interesting point about this site is not the ranking itself , but HOW this 
ranking is made, what are the criterias ?

How an artist "gets points" in this ranking ?

For example, two years ago, when Cildo Meireles, the first brazilian conceptual 
artist who had an retrospective in Tate , at that time he was between the top 
100.

It is just an example how this ranking works.

Art Power from Art Review is another criteria , HOW does it works ? 

Until now there is no ranking for digital art, as far as i know.

Duda

Just looked myself up on this site. I didn't expect to be there - but I am. My 
value is falling, from 8000ish in 2008 to 12000ish. The graph looks like the 
value of the UK Pound against the Australian dollar. What a weird way to think 
about artists and art. But I feel put in my place, that's for sure. I'm 
nowhere's ville...
For what it's worth, the top rated artist who routinely uses digital media is 
probably Andreas Gursky at 32. However, he's not a digital artist as such. He 
uses the computer as a tool, not a medium. I doubt he considers computational 
processes as essential to the conceptual nature of his practice or the 
resultant artefacts. Christian Marclay is similar, at 96, as is Muntadas at 254.
The highest ranking artist who I'd consider a practitioner who does emphasise 
the computer in their practice is Peter Weibel at 358. But that is strange as 
he is better known as an educator, administrator or curator than a 
practitioner. Cao Fei is more like it, at 418. Lozano-Hemmer is at 751 and Otto 
Piene at 843. But none of these artists are really digital artists in the sense 
I understand that term. Manfred Mohr appears to be the top rated artist who 
uses computation as central in his work, at 1119. So, it's nice to know that a 
digital artist almost gets into the top 1000. That is reassuring. Manfred gives 
us hope.
Not sure why Ai Wei Wei is at 401 when he recently topped the art power list? 
The list seems arbitrary, with major names quite far down and people I've never 
heard of near the top (although I do not read art magazines anymore as they are 
just full of advertising). Oh well, that was 15 minutes of my life wasted - but 
it saves me reading the magazines, I hope.

[NetBehaviour] Power/field compilation #3 - Call for Submissions

2011-11-02 Thread info
Power/field compilation #3 - Call for Submissions

deadline Jan 1 2012


Recordings wanted for the third edition of the Power/field compilation. 
This series is dedicated to recordings made "in the field" with 
processing on-site - ie pedals, laptops, or strange acoustic phenomena 
in the intersection of power and environment. No post-processing besides 
basic trim edits and gain

Traditional field recording captures ambient sound in various locations 
via microphone without any effects. Power/field recordings are field 
recordings made with effects processing units used on-site. The intent 
is to take experimental music practices outside of their traditional 
operating venues (composing studios and performance venues) and into the 
“field” (anywhere you don’t normally compose/record/perform music).

Aesthetically speaking, anything goes - drone, microsound, synth, 
ambient, harsh noise. The recordings can come from a wide variety of 
musical practices, and can be made with electronic, electrical, 
mechanical, and acoustic means. Harnessing the existing sound in a space 
is preferred over generating sound within a space - but the latter can 
work when the results align within the perspective of the series. It is 
suggested for all to listen to the first edition (link below) for 
examples of successful submissions.

Typical scenarios for successful works: microphone feeding into a pedal; 
contact mic fed into a laptop; sounds played in an environment and 
recorded via mics; lathe records, cassettes, and circuit boards left 
outside all winter long, then recorded in their deteriorated condition 
outside, a microphone rubbed against subway walls, a microphone set 
inside the whirlwind funneling into an air conditioner.

Typical unsuccessful scenarios: recorded freak folk / alt rock / 
post-war classical jams in someone's living room or an underground 
chamber. Please listen to the tracks from the first edition to get a 
sense of the aesthetic intent behind the project.

There is an honor system on the basic rules: the recording must be made 
outside of the studio or the stage; no overdubs except on-site; no 
re-processing; no edits besides cutting off the beginning or end. The 
submission can be an excerpt of a longer take, and basic normalizing of 
the levels is fine. Track length 3-15 min preferred, multiple short 
tracks are fine to submit. Previously released tracks will not be 
considered.

The final project will be released March 2012 in an edition of 200. The 
first 2 editions each had 2x CDrs, as there were a ton of great 
submissions. Traditionally the discs are housed in screen-printed 
cardboard sleeves. A digital edition will be created in addition to the 
physical one.

The entire contents of the previous editions can be found here:

vol 1:
http://anarchymoon.com/sounds/powerfield
(p.s. the first track of Disc 1 is titled "\\\" but the slashes don't 
come out right in an online directory)

vol 2:
http://anarchymoon.com/sounds/powerfield2


Please submit everything online by Jan 1 2012. To prevent wasted CDrs, 
please upload your recordings (mp3s in the first round) to your own 
website, to a file sharing service such as yousendit, or soundcloud. I 
can also provide an FTP address if you aren’t able to upload it 
yourself. Once the final choices are made, I’ll need full resolution 
files (WAV / AIFF) uploaded by Jan 31 2012.

Send track(s), title(s), site location(s), equipment list(s), pictures 
of your setup environment, and any other info about yourself to: 
bob_AT_halfnormal_DOT_com
