how about all the men on this list take it on to tweet/talk about this,
and any other incidents - big or small - that they're aware of? it isn't
only women's responsibility to be constantly trying to draw attention to
the problem, it's also men's responsibility to stop standing by silently
letting this stuff keep happening, as if it's normal.

Re: [NetBehaviour] taxonomy or framework's of telematic music making

2017-09-21 Thread helen varley jamieson
it's a bit tangential, but in 2007 stephen schrumm presented a proposed
taxonomy of digital performance. i wrote a bit about it in my masters
thesis:

At the 2007 Association for Theatre in Higher Education (ATHE)
conference in New Orleans,
Stephen Schrum presented a “Proposed Taxonomy of Digital Performance”
(Schrum, 2007).
Prompted by the absence of such a thing, he offered his taxonomy as a
starting point for a
discussion around common terms within the field of digital performance
that might be agreed
on and adopted. His taxonomy defines eight general areas across a
spectrum with “traditional”
(theatre production that does not include digital technology) at one end
and a hypothetical
“interactive holographic theatre” (full immersion and interaction in a
virtual world) at the
other. It is the seventh area, “computer-mediated performance” which
bears most relevance to
this research. Schrum defines computer-mediated performance as
“[p]erformance [that]
happens through the computer screen” and subdivides it into a further
two categories: “RL-
adapted performance” and “cyberspace performance”. The first he defines
as “Plays about
Real-Life (RL) performed in cyberspace” while the second is “Plays
created and set in
cyberspace; performed in cyberspace” and for both he gives examples of
works that use the
internet.

(& there's some more discussion about how cyberformance might fit into
such a taxonomy, or not).

unfortunately the link i had then (10 years ago) doesn't work now. but
you could probably get it from steve himself if you think it would be
useful.

Re: [NetBehaviour] academia.edu

2017-07-26 Thread helen varley jamieson
i don't use it a lot but ended up with stuff there first because someone
else cited me as a co-author. so i uploaded a couple of things. but all
that seems to happen now is i periodically get emails telling me that x
number of people have been searching on my name or reading my articles,
but when i click on the link for further information, i get to a page
telling me to upgrade (& pay €7.4 per month).

i suppose it is useful if you have an academic career & it's important
that your publications are circulated. but for myself, it isn't useful
enough to warrant paying for.

Re: [NetBehaviour] begging technology?

2017-06-21 Thread helen varley jamieson
all good questions. in germany, as i understand it, the law has recently
been changed to make it the right of everyone, regardless of whether or
not they have an address, to have a bank account. on the surface this
sounds like a good thing (especially for artists & others who move
around & sometimes need to open an account somewhere just to get paid
once, i've had to do this before) but it's really about getting everyone
into the system; tracking & controlling. if you are an undocumented
person, not having an address won't be the only barrier to getting a
bank account, & if the only way you can beg is digitally, then you're
screwed ...

it's happened already:

http://www.odditycentral.com/news/amsterdam-introduces-contactless-payment-jackets-for-beggars.html

i find this all very disturbing; the push for the digitisation of ALL
transactions is being driven by banks & IT companies, who stand to make
huge profits from it, & governments who will gain incredibly
fine-grained information about minute details of our lives - from  where
we drank a coffee & with whom to, well, everything that we spend money
on. the situation in india last year when the government abruptly
withdrew 500 & 1000 rupee notes from circulation - which massively
dissadvantaged poor rural people - was more about forced digitisation
than about dealing with the black market. the black market is of course
already flourishing in the digital world.

living in germany, i've observed that german people are more attached to
cash than for example british or new zealanders. there is a respect for
cash & a distrust of having everything so documented & trackable. so
there is some resistance to it here.

some of us UpStagers are working now on a new performance called "Cash
Flow" that is looking at this move to digitisation & what it means. what
we lose from not having cash, what we gain, what we should be aware/wary
of in this massive shift to how we as individuals live and exchange with

[NetBehaviour] new wikipedia articles

2017-06-03 Thread helen varley jamieson
hi everyone,

a couple of months ago there was a wikipedia edit-a-thon here in munich
that was attended by myself, gretta louw, tamiko thiel & quite a lot of
others. it was a good event, altho somewhat frustrating - as many
wikipedia editing experiences are!! (i blogged about it here:
http://creative-catalyst.com/serendipity/index.php?/archives/195-whats-wrong-with-wikipedia.html)

anyway the good news is that as a result, there are now 2 new wikipedia
articles:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruth_Catlow
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gretta_Louw

& some editing was done on other pages:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamiko_Thiel
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helen_Varley_Jamieson
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annie_Abrahams

(there was also a page created for Susanne Wiegner but it has been
deleted; we might have also worked on some other pages but i can't
remember now ...)

gretta's and my articles both still have tags saying "multiple issues",
despite having lots of quite reputable references. mine needs someone
who does not have a "close connection" to me (i don't know how wikipedia
defines "close") to add more secondary sources. gretta's article is an
orphan, meaning it needs links from other wikipedia pages to her
article. it also says it needs additional citations, it already has more
than plenty of male artists who don't have the same tags on their pages
so i think once it's no longer an orphan we should be able to get rid of
that.

so, if anyone out there has idle time on their hands & feels like
entering into the twisted labyrinth of wikipedia editing, i invite you
to contribute to improving these articles :)

well, the price is more like what it really should cost to make a phone
- if the people making it are paid properly and not exploited.

so if you believe that people should be paid properly, & have good
working conditions, then you should be prepared to pay this and more for
phones & other technology.

you also get good service - humans respond promptly to enquiries, there
is a good online support forum, & you can send your phone back for safe
recycling when you've finished with it.

really, the price is very reasonable!

Re: [NetBehaviour] linux laptops

2017-05-24 Thread helen varley jamieson
i've had no trouble with wireless connectivity, just entered the details
& it worked. installing the printer driver via the command line was
easier than i expected too, i followed the instructions i found online &
it worked first time.

this laptop came with LibreOffice preinstalled, & i was going to switch
to Open Office since i've been using that for a few years already, but
then i found that i would have to deinstall Libre first if i wanted to
install OO. it started to look complicated & so far there doesn't seem
to be a lot of difference between Libre & OO so for now anyway i'm
staying with Libre.

yes, not being able to use flash to create swfs is a temporary problem
for me - since previously this was quite important for creating media
for UpStage. however we are now well underway with a rebuild that frees
the platform from flash, & everything is moving away from flash. i am
using blender for a few things - mainly simply text animation & video
editing - & have found it easier than i anticipated (anticipating
difficulty means that one can be more often pleasantly surprised ;) )

one thing i don't have yet & will need, is a good screen recording app
(audio-video). can anyone recommend one?

hi pall,

the webcam is a BT-1 (http://www.ecamm.com/support/?cat=bt1) & it seems
to be mac only (& isn't made anymore). i had a bit of a look for a linux
driver for it but didn't find one. if you know of one, please tell me!

i'm still experimenting with the keyboard, & which keys to use for what.
i often need spanish accents as well as german & sometimes serbian or
other alphabet characters too, so i'm used to having to do a bit of
switching around :)

[NetBehaviour] linux laptops

2017-05-22 Thread helen varley jamieson
hi everyone,

more than a year ago i wrote to this list asking for advice about buying
a linux laptop. it took me a while, but i'm now happily working with
ubuntu mate on a no-brand machine :)

i spent quite a lot of time looking at second-hand & B-ware (ex-display)
machines, & also at new models (lenovo, dell, hp, acer, asus, etc etc
... ) & got quite overwhelmed by the choice & variables. nothing was
exactly what i wanted, & i couldn't decide on what to compromise. i had
a couple of things that were definite - not bigger than 14", must have
ethernet port, prefereably separate audio in & out; so that narrowed
things down quite a bit, but still i wasn't finding anything that felt
right.

then i found a uk company that sells no-brand laptops with linux
pre-installed (https://www.entroware.com). i could choose the hard
drive, RAM, keyboard layout, etc & it arrived 5 days after i ordered it.
i took it out of the box, turned it on, & started using it. the
trickiest thing i've had to do so far was use the command line to get it
to talk nicely to my printer - & i managed that without incident.

i'm still adjusting to the non-mac keyboard shortcuts - it's easier to
take a screenshot but more difficult to do an umlaut (ü), & there are a
couple of things i still need to work out. & one loss is that there are
no linux drivers for my wireless webcam, so i'm back to a tethered
webcam for now. but it is s much faster than my old mac, & i've
found most of the software that i need.

so if anyone else out there is also considering making the switch to
linux, i say - just do it! :)

Re: [NetBehaviour] Videofreex - Networked Conversations

hi randall,

this looks like a great series :)

it would be super-helpful if you could provide a time-converter link on
the webpage so that those of us not in PDT or EDT can easily find out
what our local time is for the broadcasts.

i made one for kit galloway's interview (alas, it's 3am in the morning
for germany - i'll have to make do with the recording, if there will be
one?):

Re: [NetBehaviour] chapter on "We have a situation!" in book on global civic engagement

2016-12-12 Thread helen varley jamieson
thank you ruth!! :)

i hope you managed to get in while it was free. the price for even a
single chapter is prohibitively expensive, it makes me very sad that the
publishing industry choose to make our work so inaccessible (especially
when we authors are not paid a penny by the publisher). it's surely not
a sustainable model.

[NetBehaviour] chapter on "We have a situation!" in book on global civic engagement

2016-12-05 Thread helen varley jamieson
hi everyone,

my chapter "We have a Situation! Cyberformance and Civic
Engagement in Post-Democracy" is about to be published in the book
"Convergence of Contemporary Art, Visual Culture, and Global Civic
Engagement", edited by Ryan Shin.

the chapter documents the political cyberformance project "We have a
situation!", specifically focusing on the "situation" in Rio de Janeiro
last year (which looked at the water pollution crisis in the context of
the build-up to the olympics), & examines how cyberformance can promote
proto-political engagement and post-democratic citizen activism (with a
look at how mainstream social media is NOT doing this).

the publishers are offering a 3-day free access period to promote the
book, from tuesday 6 december. if you are interested, you can find it at
the following link:
http://services.igi-global.com/resolvedoi/resolve.aspx?doi=10.4018/978-1-5225-1665-1

the official info is this:

[NetBehaviour] "We have a situation, Coventry!": live online, Thursday 24 November, 7pm UK time

2016-11-14 Thread helen varley jamieson
hi everyone,

"We have a situation, Coventry!
<http://www.wehaveasituation.net/?page_id=1414>" takes place live online
in UpStage, on *Thursday 24 November at 7pm UK time*. 

"We have a situation, Coventry!" is the sixth event in the ongoing
networked performance series "We have a situation!
<http://www.wehaveasituation.net/>", which uses cyberformance to address
topical local/global issues. This "situation" explores the
university-city relationship in Coventry. As the university rapidly
grows and dominates the centre of the city, what is happening to the
social relationships between the local citizens and the staff and
students of the university? What does the university bring to Coventry,
and what does the town give to the university? What is gained or lost in
the process?

The event on Thursday 24th consists of a cyberformance followed by a
live discussion between local participants at the Shopfront Theatre in
Coventry and online participants from around the world. The
cyberformance is being created by university students and Coventry
locals during a week-long workshop, led by Helen Varley Jamieson who is
currently International Artist in Residence at Coventry University's
Disruptive Media Learning Lab.

A live link to the online stage will be available here
<https://upstage.org.nz/?event=we-have-a-situation-coventry> and here
<http://www.wehaveasituation.net/?page_id=1414> shortly before the
performance time; find your local time here
<https://tinyurl.com/z464k6y>. Everyone is welcome!

Subject: MEDIA RELEASE: International movement started 1991 in Adelaide 
celebrates 25 years

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 9 August 2016

INTERNET PIONEERS VNS MATRIX CELEBRATE 25 YEARS OF THEIR CYBERFEMINIST MANIFESTO

The computer art group VNS Matrix are acknowledged as internet pioneers. The 
group of four artists formed in Adelaide in 1991 and created ’A Cyberfeminist 
Manifesto for the 21st Century’ with cyberfeminism going on to become an 
international movement.

Before the world wide web, these visionary artists were creating artworks that 
investigated the role and representation of women in technology.

Influenced by cyberpunk, video games and French feminist theory, VNS Matrix 
playfully imagined a virtual world populated by female cyborgs, super heroines 
and malevolent multinational corporations.

Their first major commissioned work was a 6metre x 3metre billboard of the 
‘Cyberfeminist Manifesto’ that was mounted on the exterior of Tin Sheds 
Gallery, City Road Sydney for a month during 1991. Before the days of social 
media, this image was photographed and sent around the world, while the 
manifesto was printed and distributed across Australia and internationally. The 
manifesto was translated by fans of VNS Matrix into Russian, Finnish, Japanese, 
German, Italian, Spanish and Euskera (Basque).

The group created the large scale installation ALL NEW GEN that included a 
computer game, light boxes, sound works, video and performance. The game and 
exhibition ALL NEW GEN has been shown in Adelaide, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, 
Darwin, Helsinki, Linz, Bilbao, Cannes, Amsterdam, St Petersburg, New York, 
Chicago and Minneapolis.

The work of VNS Matrix is now taught in universities and is still exhibited 
around the world and published in journals and textbooks. Two members of the 
group, FRANCESCA DA RIMINI and JULIANNE PIERCE, are based in Adelaide with 
VIRGINIA BARRATT based in northern NSW and JOSEPHINE STARRS in Sydney,

VNS Matrix are re-forming for a one-off performance of ‘A Tender Hex for the 
Anthropocene' at the ‘Femflix’ exhibition, 6.30pm Wednesday 10th August at 
Sydney College of the Arts. A compilation of VNS Matrix video and sound work is 
included in the exhibition that runs until 3rd September.

‘Femflix’ captures the unique voices of 90s feminist screen culture and is 
curated by Jacqueline Milner, Jane Schneider and Deborah Szapiro.

[NetBehaviour] Mika ‘Lumi’ Tuomola 1971-2016

2016-08-11 Thread helen varley jamieson
yesterday i learned of the death of mika "lumi" tuomola, a finnish new
media artist. maybe some of you on this list have known him.

i only met mika once in person, but he was a close friend of my Avatar
Body Collision colleague leena saarinen, & was quite often in the
background of our rehearsals so he was very present in my life during
those years. i remember him as a funny and smart guy who was
enthusiastic about experimenting & trying out different ways of using
new technologies in creative ways. he often gave us feedback or other
support for our work.

mika made a significant contribution to the development of interactive
media arts. in the 90s he wrote & directed one of the first online
interactive dramas, & in 2006 in collaboration with leena saarinen he
developed "accidental lovers", an interactive TV series where viewers
could influence the plot by sending text messages from their mobile
phones. he became a professor at Politecnico di Milano in 2015.

[NetBehaviour] online performance art festival

2016-07-31 Thread helen varley jamieson
hi,

the other day i was informed about an online performance art festival,
http://www.onlineperformanceart.com/, unfortunately too late to catch
any of it. (it claims to be the first such festival in the world, which
is amusing ;) )

patrick lichty is in the programme - patrick, can you tell us anything
about it? did you watch as well as participate? do you know the organisers?

thanks,
h : )

it's the manipulation of language in order to exercise control. so many
words have been manipulated like this, from "creative" to "freedom" & so

[NetBehaviour] New book: "Political Cyberformance: The Etheatre Project" by Christina Papagiannouli

2016-05-09 Thread helen varley jamieson
hi everyone,

i'd like to draw your attention to a new book about cyberformance that
has just been published.

"Political Cyberformance: The Etheatre Project" by Christina
Papagiannouli is based on her PhD which investigates the application of
Brecht's theatre methodologies to political cyberformance. As well as an
in-depth analysis of her own cyberformance work, examples of a range of
other cyberformance works give a good historical context from the Hamnet
Players to recent experiments by British theatre companies, and she
draws conclusions that have broader digital media/culture application.
It's an important addition to the growing body of literature around
cyberformance, networked performance and the wider field of digital
performance and internet culture.

you can order the book here:
https://www.palgrave.com/us/book/9781137577030 (it's an academic
publication, so is unfortunately quite expensive; but if you're working
in the field of theatre/performing arts, media, internet culture,
politics, etc. then it is definitely worth checking out, & hopefully
university libraries will purchase it).

Re: [NetBehaviour] Turbulence to end

2016-05-08 Thread helen varley jamieson
it is sad news indeed, i hope it will be archived somewhere. and written
about. i agree with giselle, it's vital that the early history of
net.art gets recorded - multiple times, and in multiple discordant
voices. we see so many situations of younger artists "discovering"
things that we were all doing 10+years ago; of course everyone should
and will make their own discoveries, but not so that previous work gets
invisibilised.

john, such documentation won't change the traces in our bodies :) it's
for those who don't have these bodily traces.

Re: [NetBehaviour] seeking advice on linux laptops & text animation software

2016-03-22 Thread helen varley jamieson
thanks very much rob. i think blender is probably a bit more than i need
(but one day i'd like to try & get my head around it ... ). i got a
recommendation from another list for something called sozi, which is
apparently animated slides (sounds like an open source powerpoint
perhaps) - i'll check out that & have also downloaded synfig to try
tomorrow.

actually i hadn't thought of putting linux on my my existing laptop;
it's an idea - but i'm expecting to have to have a transition period of
some months, & still have quite a few things that i need certain
software on the mac to do ... & not enough space to partition the hard
drive ... so i will have a look at thinkpads.

Re: [NetBehaviour] seeking advice on linux laptops & text animation software

2016-03-22 Thread helen varley jamieson
that is great to hear, alan. it really annoys me that my current laptop,
a mere 6 years old, is reaching the end of its life because it's not
possible to further upgrade the operating system. i remember a while
back talk of the 50 year old laptop, & that is what i aspire to have!

thanks pall, i will chech out synfig :)

re the dvd drive: i realise they are becoming increasingly uncommon;
more than once i've been in the situation at a festival or conference
where someone has urgently needed to burn a dvd in order to present
something or play something in a performance, & no-one else except me
has had a dvd burner in their laptop. i use it sometimes to burn things
to post, i like to watch dvds on my laptop in bed, & i have a lot of
stuff backed up on cds & dvds which i do sometimes need to view. i have
several times found it useful when i've been travelling to have a
built-in one, but i probably could live with a separate dvd drive.

[NetBehaviour] seeking advice on linux laptops & text animation software

2016-03-22 Thread helen varley jamieson
hi everyone,
i am seeking advice on 2 questions:

firstly, i need to upgrade my laptop & have decided to make the
transition to linux. mint has been recommended to me for the OS. does
anyone out there have any advice regarding choice of hardware? ideally i
want a small laptop with a dvd drive, ethernet port, & separate audio in
& out ports.

secondly, i'm working on an installation which includes projected
animated text. previously i've done this in a basic but effective way
with powerpoint. this time, i want more control over the animations than
powerpoint allows, and it needs to be a looping video as it's going to
be left running on its own. can anyone recommend a good software for
text animation? (preferably open source).

all ideas much appreciated,
h : )

[NetBehaviour] anti-TPPA protests in nz

2016-02-04 Thread helen varley jamieson
late last night - or rather, early this morning, i watched a live stream
from auckland of protests against the TPPA signing (the TPPA is the
pacific equivalent of the european TTIP). you can see the footage here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bcab6Q8B_g

the nz government was hosting a behind-closed-doors ceremonial signing
of the TPPA in auckland with the 12 other pacific nations involved.
there were protests all over the country, including about 15,000 people
in auckland where the march was led by maori performing the haka. these
were local iwi (tribes) who had been asked by the government to perform
a powhiri (maori welcome) for the signing of the TPPA (a powhiri is
standard protocol for significant events in nz) - but the iwi refused
and chose instead to lead the march. there was a big maori presence & a
forest of tino rangitiratanga flags (red & black flag of maori
sovereignty - & much nicer than the logo-like option the government is
currently trying to force through as our new flag) & an overwhelming
atmosphere of strong, unified opposition to the TPPA and the way the
government has handled it.

february 6th is waitangi day in aotearoa/new zealand - the anniversary
of the signing of the treaty of waitingi in 1840 between maori tribes
(not all of them) and representatives of the british crown. it's a
public holiday in nz, some see it as a celebration & others as a day of
mourning / contemplation about colonisation. there is always a major
ceremony at te tii marae in waitangi, which the prime minister
traditionally attends. there is often some element of protest or
controversy around it & this year it has been pretty much about the
TPPA. as a result, our dickhead prime minister john key, who is busy
signing away aoteaora/new zealand to coroporate colonisation, has
decided not to go. maori objection to the TPPA is mainly over the lack
of consultation, but also concerns that the TPPA will breach the treaty
of waitangi (which it absolutely will).

i felt proud to see the huge public opposition to the TPPA, with people
from all walks of life & everyone that the reporter spoke to was very
well-informed. the signing of the TPPA is purely ceremonial, it still
has to go through the legal processes in each of the 12 nations, so
there is still hope that the whole thing will collapse.

john, evolution and change are not only possible, they are inevitable.
there was a time before these systems existed (not really so long ago,
in the greater scheme of things) and there will be a time after.
unfortunately it probably won't be in our life time & i'm not placing
any bets on how long it will take, or what it will be replaced with, but
that's no reason not to strive for something better.

your eternal optimist,

yes it is completely twisted; if half that amount was invested in things
that actually helped people have better lives, instead of killing them,
it would make such a big positive difference.

my grandmother had a teatowel on her wall (from the 1970s) that read
something like "it will be a great day when schools have all the money
they need and the air force has a cake stall to raise money for a new
plane" ... sadly that day is still a long long way off :(

[NetBehaviour] We have (another) situation! - online performance, 7-8 November

2015-10-23 Thread helen varley jamieson
*We have (another) situation!*
Saturday 7 November, 19:00 (Rio time)
find your local time here: https://tinyurl.com/q4yfd5h
*online and onsite* at Multicidade International Festival of Women in
Theatre, Rio de Janeiro
http://www.wehaveasituation.net/

As the 2016 Olympic Summer Games draw closer, international attention is
focused on Rio de Janeiro and in particular the challenge of cleaning up
the heavily polluted waters of Guanabara Bay, where many sports will
take place. In a live online cyberformance, /*We have a situation!*/
asks questions about the quality of the water, where the pollution comes
from and what is being done about it; and connects Rio's situation to
the problem of water pollution globally. The audience, both online and
at the Multicidade Festival in Rio de Janeiro, will participate in an
open conversation around the issues raised in the performance.

Audiences around the world can join the live performance and discussion
and interact in real time via text chat. We have a situation! uses
UpStage, a purpose-built cyberformance platform which is accessible to
anyone with a standard browser and internet connection. Audiences need
only click on a link to the live stage, which will be available shortly
before the performance at http://www.wehaveasituation.net.

/*We have a situation!*/ is a series of live, trans-border,
online-offline participatory performances addressing current
cross-cultural issues. It began in 2012 as a collaboration between APO33
(Nantes), Furtherfield (London), mad emergent art centre (Eindhoven),
Schaumbad Freies-Atelierhaus (Graz) and Helen Varley Jamieson.

The Rio situation is created by Helen Varley Jamieson with online
collaborators Gabriella Sacco (Italy/Netherlands), Elaine vaan Hogue
(USA), Leti�cia Castilho (Brasil), Miljana Peric� (Serbia) and Vicki
Smith (Aotearoa New Zealand). In Rio de Janeiro, collaborators include
Multicidade workshop participants and Haveté� Sustentabilidade, a
collective addressing sustainability issues through workshops and practice.

[NetBehaviour] Audio-visual streaming in UpStage: next Open Walkthrough, 7 September

2015-08-26 Thread helen varley jamieson
hi everyone,
the next open walkthrough will take place on monday 7 september and will
focus on audio-visual streaming in UpStage: how to set up and send a
stream from your webcam  mic, and how to create and operate a stream
avatar in UpStage.

*Monday 7 September
**21:00 CET (find your local time here https://tinyurl.com/oqva55c)
*Open Walkthrough stage link http://upstage.org.nz:8083/stages/walkthrough

Email i...@upstage.org.nz if you would like a guest login for this session.

Participants will need to download the FMLE
https://www.adobe.com/products/flash-media-encoder.html before the
session; this is a free encoder application. If you are on Linux, you
can use VLC https://videolan.org/vlc/.

If you have time, it will be helpful to read the section “Introduction
to Streaming” on page 46 of the draft UpStage v3 User Manual
http://upstage.org.nz/blog/wp-content/uploads/upstagev3usermanualdraft.pdf.
There is also a video https://vimeo.com/69239857 that walks through
the process (this is a couple of years old now but most things are the
same).

more info here: http://upstage.org.nz/blog/?p=6482

we look forward to seeing you on the 7th,
helen  vicki :)

[NetBehaviour] looking for environmental groups/activists in rio de janeiro

2015-08-20 Thread helen varley jamieson
hi everyone,
i'm working on another situation (http://www.wehaveasituation.net),
this time on the topic of water pollution in rio de janeiro -
specifically in the context of the 2016 olympic games, some of which
will be held in the very polluted guanabara bay, and the lack of action
from authorities to clean up the water; we'll also be looking at the
wider issues of water pollution.

i want to get in contact with environmental groups, activists and others
in rio who are working on this issue already, or interested in working
on it, to be able to understand the real local issues around this
situation. if you know any groups or people in rio who might be
interested, please let me know or pass on this email.

i'll be in rio for 2 weeks from 24th october,  the situation is being
created  presented at the Multicidades festival of women's performance
(http://multicidade.com/) with a workshop running from 2-6 november and
performance on the evening of 7th november.

the performance will of course be online (live) as well as in rio, so
you can all join it :)

[NetBehaviour] easy email list for small group?

2015-07-01 Thread helen varley jamieson
hi everyone,
can anyone recommend an easy  free way to set up an email list for a
small (around 100 people) arts group?

i don't want to use google groups,  we really only need a mailing list
- where everyone in the group can post, manage their subscription,
receive digests or single emails, access archives etc. mailman  phplist
are ideal but i don't know of a free host server. it could be some other
online platform but i want something that's open source  free.

i had a look at https://wiggio.com/  it looks pretty good, but it's
based at a u.s. university. does anyone know of anything similar that
isn't based in the u.s.?

thanks,
h : )

 CHDH - EGREGORE SOURCE LIVE
 REMOTE PERFORMANCE - 27 MAY 2015 AT 21H CEST (UTC+2)

 The egregore - source instrument will be played live remotely by
 chdh for a one time only performance.
 To attend the show you only need a computer, the egregore software
 installed and an Internet connection.
 http://www.chdh.net/egregore_source_live.php

 _

 The source code of the egregore performance is made fully
 available as a software to download, or as a usb key. This remote
 performance aims to exploit the physical dispersion of this digital
 support, in order to develop a broadcasting structure for a
 networked audiovisual performance, played on Wed. 27th May 2015, 21H
 CEST.

 The multiple personal computers hosting the software constitute a
 distributed stage, where the artists will be able to interpret
 egregore remotely by sending a data flow that activate the
 provided software. These control data are then stored on a server,
 and remain accessible and usable with the software.

 DETAILS

 - The instrument in your computer will receive in real time the
 control parameters played in Malakoff - France.
 - All the computing is done locally on your computer, therefore
 every resulting sound and video will be slightly different.
 - We have a chat for the audience to discuss in real time: #chdh on
 freenode.net http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=%23chdh
 - The time is 21H CEST (UTC+2) and not 21H CET (UTC+1)
 - Your computer must be connected to Internet, and egregore - source
 must have access to port 80

 There is a few venues broadcasting the show in real time

 interesting about tory-greens in the uk, i don't think that's
 the case
 in nz.


 I'd take the view re greens in the uk with a pinch of salt made of
 the fact they are a rather sizable tent with various shades, that
 I personally have more views than a political insight, and that
 the focus was re brighton local greens.

 cheers!

 Being green here in the uk is, imho, a bit like an

 Indeed, if
 the local elections are any indication to varify/falsify that

 Labour's voters..
 Also, local green head honcho, while sporting a cool

 spreading tall

 Hi there,

 If anyone is interested in looking at a new initiative to consider how the 
 internet can be used as a participatory framework for building a political 
 party, have a look at the experimental Populace that I am involved in setting 
 up. It is set up to deal with one issue - widening inequality in the UK - 
 although of course the answers will no doubt be multifarious. 

 There are monthly online debates to discuss and debate policy proposals and 
 crowdsourced research. Currently these are using off the peg software whilst 
 we build our own software.

 Obviously this mailing list isn't a political one, but I thought that the 
 members may simply be interested to see how this experiment is seeking to use 
 the internet to create and collaborate, which seems to be what Net Behaviour 
 is about also.

 If you are interested please go to www.wearepopulace.uk and you can join the 
 debate though the link on there. The website and debate only went up on 
 Friday 8th and this is very much a work in progress, so any feedback very 
 welcome. The first debate is on candidate policy - how do we ensure that the 
 representatives in parliament are there to reduce inequality rather than for 
 their own purposes.

 Have a look!

 Anna

as i know there hasn't been anything about actual exhibitions or art

it was patrick who suggested performience :)

annie's email yesterday (or the day before?) reminded me of the french
use of assist for being in the audience, which i like a lot. audience
as assisters (rather than assistants which is a bit hierarchical)
(also assisters has a nice feminist touch to it ;) )

 Sorry everyone about the shift in schedule- The change was due to a
 cancellation, due to family emergency, of an earlier speaker.

 I will find out and let you know when the video will be online.
 But Helen is right, it just isn't the same!

 It is a lovely format- MUCH more fun than the traditional conference
 speaker experience of standing in a darkened auditorium in a spot
 light - quaking on the inside, while attempting to project some kind
 of weird authority.

 It's so friendly - that the online chatting audience can heckle and
 joke and ridicule while 'speakers' 'speak' ;)
 In this case the online audience or performience as I think Helen
 and Randall termed it, held a fascinating parallel debate throughout
 the event. I learned a lot!

yes, thank you annie! and randall, and ruth  marc :) it's been a lot of
fun so far, with very interesting presentations/discussions (the little
that i've seen - i'm not an early riser  the days are 3am starts for me
... looking forward to the recordings!). for those of us online the
organisation appears to be very smooth (we have no idea what kind of
jugging randall's doing in the Control Room ;) )  the time-keeping is
great!

 medium that is still incredibly young in the history of art.  The idea
 that we can stage and discuss our work in front of a global audience
 still feels like a miracle and so I encourage everyone to participate

 this morning I assisted in the opening of the Networked Practice
 symposium (relaxed, no fee, no travels) and 4 excellent interviews by
 Marc and Ruth and a beautifull performance by Helen Varley Jamieson
 and her students here https://ntu.adobeconnect.com/symposium2015
 At the end I longed for more
 Meeting online using a chatwindow while people discuss is very
 different from going to a conference or participating in an email list
 Randall might be right This is the future

 thanks Randall for making this happen
 the symposium had a perfect start

 come along tomorrow
 don't miss it

Re: [NetBehaviour] Improvisation

2015-03-27 Thread helen varley jamieson
improvisation is an important part of my work for many reasons, but in
particular when creating live performance via internet technology there
is always the possibility of failure, glitch, lag  other technical
improvisations that can require an improvised response; and secondly
with an interactive audience who are able to participate, comment and
insert themselves into the work it's also very important to be able to
improvise in response to this. improvisation emphasises the liveness of
the work and the conversational nature of cyberformance.  it's fun :)

 Yes.. Interesting.. Improvisation, in terms of meanings, has a range of

 A sort of an hack with a focus on time rather than object or objective.

 What's the context for this immersion in improvisation? (..or is it an
 improvised immersion..?)

 Improvisation offers a wealth of cultural connections. Part of my own
 practice is rooted in jazz. Jazz is a contested territory, with deep
 roots. I don't find that the same can be said of formal systems, which are
 the other side of my practice. That's probably why I try to muddy them up
 with symbolic meanings—perhaps also to spite my academic education, that
  insisted on the purity of formal systems and saw symbolic meaning as a
 sort of vestigial literary appendage.

 Of course, historically, formal systems such as Western music theory are
 charged with all sorts of cultural freight. Their emptying out of
 nationalist fervor and programmatic detail seems to have been a Modernist
  project. The pure forms were supposed to offer a universality.
 Post-colonial and post-structuralist critiques suggest that notion was
 seriously flawed. We still seem to be recovering from that error.

Re: [NetBehaviour] DIWO Process

2015-03-16 Thread helen varley jamieson
 participation (though I must admit to
 having passively spectated through that one but I was fairly
 new on the list and still trying to get a feel for the
 conversation). 

 That said, I'd still argue for no rules. Rules may be
 necessary in large funded projects, as funding drives the
 need for results in our productivity-obssessed age, but rules
 tend to bring hierarchical structure with them. That goes
 against the best aspects of participatory work:
 inclusiveness, the freedom to play when and if you want to,
 and the openness and unpredictability of it all. Necessarily
 that means projects may fail to deliver results, spin out of
 control or take unexpected turns, but surely that's part of
 the fun of it? 

 Also I think more than ever it's important to have spaces
 where we feel free to remix, appropriate and play with other
 people's work. When artists are being prosecuted left, right
 and center for things like doing a painting based on someone
 else's photograph, just keeping that space open is a
 political statement. And Netbehaviour has been doing a great
 job of that :-)

hi ursula,
thanks for fixing the video, it looks like a great production :) does
the audience have input to the piece or is it a set choreography?

it reminded me of a performance at the 11:11:11 UpStage festival, by
inge hoonte  birgit bachler, where they were exploring the relationship
between computer  user,  had a webcam inside a computer with
characters who woke up (or not) to do the actions such as fetching 
opening files.

 hi helen,

 thanks for your reply! yeah i had a feeling that 'html_butoh' might go a
 touch beyond your UI discussion (html_butoh rather scrutinizes the overall

 the piece before and like it! very cool.

 in terms of watching the demo video of 'far-flung follows function': 
 http://farflungfollowsfunction.ursenal.net/video.html
 it should work now (assuming you've tried in chrome before and it didn't
 load, this finally made me fix the issue with QT ;-) let me know if you
 still have problems watching it.

 and as much as in 'far-flung follows' function i am playing with the idea
 of how the overall operating system and its UI behaves, there is a scene
 where two mouse cursors are struggling over the priority of the click -
 check out the scene below. it is though a desktop UI movement moment,
 not hand-held ;-)

Re: [NetBehaviour] NetArtizens: Do you dream of computers?

2015-03-12 Thread helen varley jamieson
i don't think i dream about computers at all; my dreams tend to be about
people  places,  my anxiety dreams are nearly always associated with
travel. one that i used to have for a long time was that i had to catch
a train, but i couldn't fit all of my stuff into my suitcase/backpack. i
would be frantically trying to cram everything into a space that was
physically too small for it all, as the clock ticked mercilessly on, but
i would keep trying until it was actually past the time that the train
would leave (even if i also needed time to get to the station). one of
those inevitable losing battle situations like the sorcerer's apprentice
in fantasia, but without any brooms coming to help. happily i haven't
had this dream for a while :)

but it is interesting that i don't dream about computers, given that i
generally spend most of my working day in front of one  most of my
communication with the outside world is through the computer. i always
shut down completely  switch off the power when i finish for the day,
so maybe that achieves a mental switching-off as well.

 I have a recurring anxiety dream about computers - specifically,
 about the clinical system I use every day when I'm working at the
 doctor's surgery where I earn my living. In the dream, I'm trying
 to do something simple like make an appointment for someone, but
 instead of the appointments screen or any of the familiar parts of
 the clinical system, I'm presented with lots of peculiar,
 highly-coloured and rather surreal graphics, like landscapes out
 of Super Mario brothers or some other digital game. These are
 meant to be either alternative layouts for the clinical system, or
 'splash screens' you see when you first log on, before you get to
 the system proper. I keep trying to get past them to a screen
 which has actually got some useful functionality, but each screen
 leads to another one which is yet more bizarre and distracting -
 and I'm not just looking at these screens on a computer terminal,
 I'm kind of getting lost inside them, trying to play my way
 through them like a character in a digital game - while in the
 meantime, patients are queueing up at the surgery front desk,
 getting more and more impatient because I can't book them in, make
 them appointments, print prescriptions for them or do anything
 else to help them.

 It's a classic anxiety dream, of course. When I was at school I
 used to dream of getting on the wrong bus, getting off at the
 wrong stop, trying to walk it but taking all the wrong turnings,
 catching another bus which took me in the wrong direction, getting
 further and further away from where I was supposed to be,
 and more and more conscious of the fact that I was already late
 and missing lessons. Nowadays my dreams use computers and digital
 technology instead of bus-rides and twisty roads to flesh out my
 anxiety.

 Does anybody else dream about computers, anxiously or otherwise?

Re: [NetBehaviour] NetArtizens: Do you dream of computers?

2015-03-12 Thread helen varley jamieson
during the CyPosium, joseph delappe talked about his experience when he
was performing gandhi in second life intensively every day for i forget
how long, he said he would walk down the street  think that he could
click on people  have information about them display over their heads
as in SL.

i can't think off the top of my head of an example of dance or
performance that choreographs UI gestures but i bet there are some out
there.

 The body language of mobile and tablet use is fascinating, the
 postures and hand gestures. Faces lost in contemplation illuminated by
 not God or the truth but by commercially mediated sociality. Hands
 stroking, pulling, making shadowplay ducks.

 Everyone (if you like ;-) ) try making gesture UI movements with your
 hands in the air in front of you and see how they look. Is there any
 contemporary dance using this?

yes, i agree randall :)

 @Helen: I am still interested in the idea that social media (and that
 includes this list) is in fact an intermedial exchange  process of
 co-authorship, that we are in fact, together,
 authoring/constructing/generating a collective body of knowledge via
 this exchange. If you were to go back and read through the archives of
 NetBehaviour I am certain there is a “cultural record”  (to use the
 words of Vannevar Bush) with a narrative flow that captures
 a “story” of the time and place and people involved. I consider social
 media (generally and perhaps idealistically speaking) to be
 expressive, performative (not proconsumative), and participatory in
 equal measure, narrative in a non-hierarchical structure, a theater of
 words and ideas. 


 that's quite nice :)

 prosumer is not a word for actor+audience, it's a word for
 producer+consumer, which is about product and consumption, rather
 than relationship  experience.

 i have long hunted for a good word for this - for audiences that are
 participating in a really creative way in a work -  i don't just
 mean the interactivity of pressing a button or something like that.
 i mean co-authoring in a way that they can insert their own
 creativity  alter/influence the work. i have written about the
 intermedial audience, as a way to understand the role of the
 audience in cyberformance  potentially other digital art contexts.

 The concept of intermediality offers a way to approach an audience
 that is as unfinished and (r)evolutionary as the work it is engaging
 with. It upgrades the passive spectator to an integral position
 within cyberformance, without relinquishing the fundamental gap
 between performer and spectator. At the same time, intermediality
 acknowledges the mental multitasking that cyberformance demands of
 its audience and the paradigm shift that is forced onto those more
 accustomed to the traditional codes of audience behaviour.

 (this was written 8 years ago  perhaps needs updating now given then
 increased possibilities for audience participation/contribution.)

 i don't think the intermedial audience are players of equal
 measure,  i'm not sure if this really exists (when an artist or
 group has conceived the work or created the context for it except
 maybe in gaming?).

 Hello,

  

 I can't really agree:

  

  

 When we sit in the theater, we are essentially a receiver of
 information that is passed from the stage to the audience.
 But in the world of social media, we are all actors on the
 stage: the fourth wall is erased, the proscenium dissolves,
 there are no lights to turn down, the suspension of disbelief
 is revised, as information (or lines) are passed not just
 from the one to many, but from everyone to everyone. 

  

 Most of us are audience most of the time, as actors need audience
 to be actors. And what's the difference between a screen and a
 stage? except that on a screen it is not always considered bad
 manners to join in the act. 

 And some of us deliberately choose to be audience, others act
 occasionally, some act as a hobby and others professionally (
 though I'm not sure that acting is a good analogy at all for
 social interaction - there should be a word for actor and
 audience all in one, and possibly for combinations of different
 amounts of one and the other). 

  

  

  how do we insert ourselves into this story, not as
 receivers, but as players of equal measure, 

  

  Tweet! Retweet! Respond! - Seriously, that account only has 14
 followers. How can it act at all in the absence of audience? Is
 it a bad actor? If we're all actors then how many of us are bad
 actors and should consider a change of carreer?

  

 Oh and a funny thing: I followed the link above and it gave me an
 error. It's really @The_People_Came

 items such as home photos which are generally no
 longer printed, and home videos. I also wonder what
 future archeologists will think of our surviving
 buried rubbish. so whilst I love the net, I think it's
 important to go back to hand made physical art and
 craft too. if there is some pulse in the future which
 wipes all the technology we'll be left with a gap from
 our digital/online years. let's hope the libraries
 survive. I've heard of projects such as printed copies
 of Wikipedia, but I wonder how many they print and how
 distributed these are. (plus how often as WP changes
 so quickly). in smaller communities such as music
 communities (for one example), there's less event
 flyers printed out - they are all online or (worse)
 only on Facebook as event listings, which means they
 are lost over very short times. I suppose it's really
 up to how much people care about these things, and
 whether they work towards saving some of it or
 preparing for the future.

 looking forward to this month. checking out the
 artworks now - they're looking great
 thanks

 of today increasingly
 coded in numerical values that will need to be

 Followers equals audience? I don't think so.

 Hello,

  

 I can't really agree:

  

  

 When we sit in the theater, we are essentially a receiver of
 information that is passed from the stage to the audience. But
 in the world of social media, we are all actors on the stage:
 the fourth wall is erased, the proscenium dissolves, there are
 no lights to turn down, the suspension of disbelief is
 revised, as information (or lines) are passed not just from
 the one to many, but from everyone to everyone. 

  

 Most of us are audience most of the time, as actors need audience
 to be actors. And what's the difference between a screen and a
 stage? except that on a screen it is not always considered bad
 manners to join in the act. 

 And some of us deliberately choose to be audience, others act
 occasionally, some act as a hobby and others professionally (
 though I'm not sure that acting is a good analogy at all for
 social interaction - there should be a word for actor and audience
 all in one, and possibly for combinations of different amounts of
 one and the other). 

  

  

  how do we insert ourselves into this story, not as receivers,
 but as players of equal measure, 

  

  Tweet! Retweet! Respond! - Seriously, that account only has 14
 followers. How can it act at all in the absence of audience? Is it
 a bad actor? If we're all actors then how many of us are bad
 actors and should consider a change of carreer?

  

 Oh and a funny thing: I followed the link above and it gave me an
 error. It's really @The_People_Came
 https://twitter.com/The_People_Came. Was that on purpose I wonder?

  

 Cheers
