[NetBehaviour] Finsbury Park Radiation Walk. London.
Finsbury Park Radiation Walk. London. Date: Saturday 21 July 2012, 2-5pm Venue: Furtherfield Gallery, McKenzie Pavilion Public exploratory radiation walk around Finsbury Park, measuring mobile phone radiation levels and discovering what type of radiations we are exposed to on a daily basis. As we walk, we will unravel a parallel, hidden story of the local area along with technical data and possible medical effects of the radiation. Participants will measure radiation levels, GPS positions and marked levels on a large map of the area, creating a collaborative artwork (poster sized map of local radiation) to be made available for display as part of the exhibition after the event. Visit here to sign up: http://www.furtherfield.org/programmes/events/finsbury-park-radiation-walk About the Artist Dave Miller is a South London based artist and currently a Research Fellow in Augmented Reality at the University of Bedfordshire. Through his art practice Dave draws out the invisible forces that make life difficult. His work is about caring and being angry, as an artist. His art enables him to express feelings about the world, to attempt to explain things in a meaningful, yet subjective way, and make complexed information accessible. Recurrent themes in his work are: human stories, injustices, contentious issues and campaigning. Recently he's been very bothered by the financial crisis. Finsbury Park Radiation Walk is part of Invisible Forces at Furtherfield Gallery. http://www.furtherfield.org/programmes/exhibition/invisible-forces More Invisible Forces events http://www.furtherfield.org/programmes/event/invisible-forces-events -- Other Info: Furtherfield - A living, breathing, thriving network http://www.furtherfield.org - for art, technology and social change since 1997 Also - Furtherfield Gallery Social Space: http://www.furtherfield.org/gallery About Furtherfield: http://www.furtherfield.org/content/about Netbehaviour - Networked Artists List Community. http://www.netbehaviour.org http://identi.ca/furtherfield http://twitter.com/furtherfield ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

Lies, Lawlessness and Disbelief: An Attempt at Thinking Art and Capital http://www.furtherfield.org/features/articles/lies-lawlessness-and-disbelief-attempt-thinking-art-and-capital-0 By Katie McCain. McCain discusses how capitalism has become on the one hand all-encompassing and on the other utterly unreal. Arguing that we need to be prepared to think the impossible so that resistance is able to grow. It attempts to weave an account in which system failure is seen as a point of rupture, whether in legislation, bureaucracy or thought itself. Katie McCain is a Canadian artist based in Berlin. She received her BFA from Concordia University and her MFA from Glasgow School of Art. Her work has been shown internationally, including shows in Montreal, Glasgow and Berlin. -- Other Info: Furtherfield - A living, breathing, thriving network http://www.furtherfield.org - for art, technology and social change since 1997 Also - Furtherfield Gallery Social Space: http://www.furtherfield.org/gallery About Furtherfield: http://www.furtherfield.org/content/about Netbehaviour - Networked Artists List Community. http://www.netbehaviour.org http://identi.ca/furtherfield http://twitter.com/furtherfield ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

[NetBehaviour] Digital Manual Scoping Study involving FLOSS Manuals
Digital Manual Scoping Study involving FLOSS Manuals By mickfuzz FLOSS Manuals was chosen as a case study for a scoping study funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC). The research focus was the ‘Digital Manual’: a model of emergent multi-authored publication employing open source and co-creative practices. Clearly this is an area where FM is doing really innovative work. Although what we do is innovative and interesting, we are so focused on the practicalities of creating free manuals for free software rather than the analysis of that process, that until now it has been challenging for FLOSS Manuals to interact easily with the academic world. Also, there is a certain amount of grumpy pride in our community that we have been under-funded and over-worked compared to some projects in the worlds of Free Culture or academia. http://clearerchannel.org/wordpress/blog/2012/07/13/digital-manual/# ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

[NetBehaviour] The SKOR Codex
Sorry for please /// July 12th, 2012, Earth, FIRST ARCHIVE TO HOST THE SKOR CODEX BOOK. /// On the chance that someone will be out there, La Société Anonyme has approved the placement of 8 books on 8 locations on Earth. The book, called The SKOR Codex was placed on Thursday (July 12, 2012) aboard the first of eight locations to host the portrait of the diversity of life and culture at the Foundation for Art and Public Domain (SKOR). The 1156 gram book contains greetings from the SKOR staff in 4 languages, samples of artworks from different artists and eras, and field recordings of the SKOR premises. The Codex contains binary information that an advanced technological civilization could convert into diagrams, pictures and sounds, including a message from SKOR managing director Tati Freeke-Suwarganda. Messages in the record were designed to enable possible decoding by future civilizations who might encounter the book in hundreds of years, hence the integration of some pictures of 21st century SKOR. The book will be encountered and decoded only if there are advanced civilizations on earth, said La Société Anonyme. But, as the beautiful message from managing director Tati Freeke-Suwarganda and web curator Annet Dekker indicate, Société Anonyme added, the launching of this 'bottle' into the cosmic 'ocean' says something very hopeful about art. La Société Anonyme chose the medium of book as a way of preserving the portrait because it can carry much more information in the same space then for example an engraved stone. Each book is made of acid-free paper, the sections have been sewn onto 4 bands of rameh, the spine is enforced with Japanese paper and the book is wrapped in an acid-free protective cover. It contains, in symbolic language, information on how the book is to be decoded. The book begins with photographs and diagrams in binary form, depicting the SKOR buildings, surroundings, artifacts, objects, office spaces, and some hint of the richness of SKOR's civilization. Included are schematics about SKOR, its location in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, photographs of Ruysdaelkade 2, bicycles, a large fax machine and desks. This is followed by spoken greetings in 4 human languages, including a spoken message by Annet Dekker, web curator of SKOR. The SKOR Codex next includes field recordings made at Ruysdaelkade 2. The artwork selection represents the cultural diversity of SKOR. The entire book counts 304 pages. The book is likely to survive more than a thousand years. Thus it represents a message into the future, a point referred to in managing director Tati Freeke-Suwarganda's message. Among the members of La Société Anonyme's committee and others who played a major role in devising The SKOR Codex are Dušan Barok, Danny van der Kleij, Aymeric Mansoux, and Marloes de Valk, the book was hand bound by the Wilgenkamp bindery. The book was commissioned by SKOR, and produced by La Société Anonyme. The first book will be archived at the SKOR archive hosted by Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam. The other books will be hosted at seven different locations on the planet. /// More information, photos and downloads: http://societeanonyme.la /// :* a. -- http://su.kuri.mu ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

[NetBehaviour] olympics may not be able to protect its brands enough.
In short, LOCOG is powerless to solve the problem of unofficial brands subtly aligning themselves with the Games – the hurdle being that it is impossible to protect every single phrase, or themed marketing approach, that could remotely be associated with sports. With the breadth and variety of that subject area in mind, LOCOG should be acknowledged for making every effort to protect its sponsors, and – by extension – the stream of private funding into the event that Londoners demanded after their city was chosen to host it. http://www.cpaglobal.com/newlegalreview/5283/the_olympic_struggle_to_guard_ ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
