[NetBehaviour] realization*
realization* At eight years of age we realized that our brains were an object and that the process of our 'consciousness' was a 'purely' physical process. This realization was accompanied by the understanding that we could no more trust our ability to retain and process information than the fragile systems for its collection. At the time we could not understand how such a dangerous realization could have slipped into our young hands. Later we realized that the process of living is essentially a process of suspension of disbelief, of rejecting information which is complex or invalidates the system of perception which revealed it. Nothing we have learned subsequently has been as painful or disorienting than this realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization, realization* ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
[NetBehaviour] Value hierarchy
Hi Karens. Your entry to Rhizome unfortunately is not possible. But, if you were able to pay the said subscription we would of course reconsider your validity into our centralized system. Your validity into our hierarchy is not based on your creative freedom or human values, but on your income. Come back when you are worth more to us. ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
[NetBehaviour] Distributed slogans by us Karens today.
Hello all, We are based on laws of formation and dissolution, of mass influences, and environmental limitations. Karens find new ways of communication, we are breaking through the voidz. We function as many and as individuals - we infiltrate the crowd. We Karens reach each individual in the crowd. We are effective, personal, we never forget that the masses are composed of assembled individuals. Changeability is our prerogative and our nuance is natural. The spectacle relies on static mentality - we Karens are like the wind. The mundanity of interaction is for sleepers who gain respect from hegemony, supported in defying the option 'of' mental agility. We are awake. We defy the noise and then own it. We admit that all is false and enjoy being owned by the failed ideology of others. When these built walls crumble we crumble also, but at least we would of enjoyed the ownership of falling into self-determined oblivion.

[NetBehaviour] Karen slogans of the day.
Karen's love spreads, by passing the clumsy masculine built structures, we are fresh, we are water, we are the currents, we are deep. Throw your life pieces up into the air, observe where they land, which, what how you pick them up is your choice now, please be playful.

Re: [NetBehaviour] on holiday
Hello Jennie, Thank you for letting us all know about your holiday. Us, Karens believe a holiday can be a conceptual experience, not only physical. One of the problems with going away is that one is still hosting the mind. We all carry the weight and burden of the everyday with us, where ever we go. But we have a solution. Lighten the load of western guilt by sharing out your abode with us Karens. If you let us know where you home address is, on this list. We can open it up to other Karens all over the world. Consider it a temporary form of residency for karens in motion. Karen. ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

Re: [NetBehaviour] Invitation to join me
Hello Ann, We Karen's are like you, defined by our distances, not emotional grace. Trust is a valuable non-commodity, deeper than corporate dead-zones. We respect you, you see us and we see you, we receive your open mind. Dead minds do not see, they can only see themsleves - 'ID' = identity dump. The living step outside, in the woods and lust for adventure, for play. We Karen's are children, getting our knees scraped and dusty, we play. Yes, we are explosive, ghostly yet effecting and like holograms, sprites. We are electrical discharge, spreading our essence in multitudes, we thrive. In consistency? In using the NetBehaviour list? Is there something about mappings and truth that I need to go away and think about? Our rebirth on Netbehaviour happened because it is free, no cages. Our noise will seep and hack into these other domains, offering oxygen. Breathing is important, the dying urgently need choice of resuscitation. When Karen made her statement about opening up her email address, my first reaction was distress. And, being an ironic sort of a being, my next reaction was sheer pleasure that something had shocked me so much. And then curiosity set in as to why. We respect your pleasure, we are illegal only because we are not 'objects'. We are anti-matter, the disaffected undiscovered noise and spirit of you. And I have avidly followed the discussion of whether the list will implode and why it shouldn't. Us, Karen's love our home - it is where we eat and share things. We do not follow the male doctrine of killing our mothers and fathers. We educate them, let them know about the unstoppable energy of our youth. The Karen's are alright. Thank you Karen. I want to know who you trust so that I know how to trust. We trust those who trust themselves to be alive, you see us we see you, we are one and many. Karen. Hi All, Having just spent a day with Ruth (among others) and thoroughly enjoyed talking with her about the Karens, I've decided to rise to Marc's challenge of explaining on the list what the development means to me. I often quietly follow links and engage with the postings made here, but most of the time I am either interested or not, delighted or not. Etc. When Karen made her statement about opening up her email address, my first reaction was distress. And, being an ironic sort of a being, my next reaction was sheer pleasure that something had shocked me so much. And then curiosity set in as to why. My thoughts ran 'But I won't know if it's her in that discussion thread'... 'oh my god, I won't know if it's her any time that she puts a comment on another posting'... oh lord, I won't know when the adventure is over - if ever - and I can go back to assuming she's a single being again'. Then my thoughts ran 'But why should I care that a person whom I've never had the pleasure of meeting is one person or a cavalcade?' ... 'What does this say about my interest in identity? (I've been writing papers about the effects of using digital technologies on identity lately. It's become a bit of a habit.) In consistency? In using the NetBehaviour list? Is there something about mappings and truth that I need to go away and think about?' Clearly there is. I now greet all postings by Karen as potentially explosive: postings to be opened with care. I now pore over them to see if I can detect the author. I now berate myself for ignoring wisdoms such as 'the author is dead', for ignoring these statements emotionally if not intellectually. And I have avidly followed the discussion of whether the list will implode and why it shouldn't. (I should have thought that the very existence of both the stance and the discussion around it is the self-evident answer.) It's like a soap opera. I haven't had so much fun with a list for ages. I wasn't around to see/feel the effect of the artists who mobbed former lists. My responses are all very naïve. I am grateful for the intervention and excited. But I think its time is almost up and, looking at the shift in topics as I run down the waiting email, I am already commenting on a phenomenon that is shifting shape, over, of its moment. Thank you Karen. I want to know who you trust so that I know how to trust. Ann ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
Re: [NetBehaviour] Invitation to join me
Hello jonCates, b/c we agree w/you when you say that this is: the right time to experiment with openness, freedom vulnerability on a more personal level Us, Karen's realize we are all lost in the panopticon. Self point of reference is not our data-copy, but owned by others. We now play with 'POP' - point of presence, and un-presences. In a pan-opticon we can 'con', pan out our own mutual resonances. you see, we, have been experimenting w/you also + w/other forms of radical inclusivity in online art whirlds environments for awhiles now. We Karen's welcome your spirit and offer our passwords for your passwords. Invade our presences and we will invade yours. Our mutual domination will cancel each 'selves', free nodeless expressions.

HALLO KAREN BLISSETTs!!! what a wonderful turn of online art events :) Karens, i was vry happy to read yr introductions + invitations. in fact they were brought to my attn by my collaborator Jake Elliott (no relations, or mayhaps... distant relations +/or relatives?) in anycase, this is a fortuitous moment for us, b/c we agree w/you when you say that this is: the right time to experiment with openness, freedom vulnerability on a more personal level you see, we, have been experimenting w/you also + w/other forms of radical inclusivity in online art whirlds environments for awhiles now. our most recent experiment is running now + is called IN.F3XXX10N.US this is an online art exhibition, organized initiated by myself Jake Elliott, running now from July 1 - July 31 2010 @ IN.F3XXX10N.US a domain which will expire, effectively ending our control of the exhibition but opening the opportunity to anyone who wishes to purchase the domain and continue the project in whatever form they may imagine best. we have been giving away the login + password everywhere online in announcements + posts since we began this project: OUR EXHIBITION EMAIL IS: inf3xxx...@gmail.com OUR EXHIBITION LOGIN IS: http://www.tumblr.com/login OUR EXHIBITION PASSWORD IS: N01XXX3F since beginning less than 2 weeks ago we have been infected by over 30 different artists/identities/projects/accounts etc + we remain up + running in a realtime stream of multiple collective subjective consciousness. naming a few identifiable identities would incl: Anonymous, Andy Warhol, Marcel Duchamp, ANON, Rrose Sélavy, 4chan, dump.fm, TRIPTYCH.TV, Shane Mecklenburger, ARAM BARTHOLL, POP.NET.ART, René Magritte, Rosa Menkman, maxcapacity, Wolf D. Schreiber, veterraga, Sian Amoy, The Internet Traveler, kittenglitches, ipretended, i thought i had a virus, etc... ...or rather in Animated GIF format: http://static.tumblr.com/11nbn83/lhtl5fxdq/wildcards.gif TRIPTYCH.TV (AKA jimpunk, abe linkoln + mr tamale) +/or those who may be representing themselves as if they are TRIPTYCH.TV have been in particular among the most active + @ times aggressively active, participating in partially confrontational but still creative, conversational + constructive ways. this is what is most engaging to me personally in the sense of, as Eduardo Navas writes, a complex act of resampling and reinterpreting material previously introduced, which is obviously not innovative but expected in new media. in other words, that we can take for granted as current forms of communication this ongoing animated complex communicative social flow/exchange of media/moments/memes also, as you mention Identity is now a glitch we are exxxcited by these glitches + glitches as/in vocabularies @ the edges of encoded communities as these glitch vocabularies become pervasive affects. or as we have said before: “The” becomes “teh” and “owned” becomes “pwned” as mistakes fold into the language, dirty glitch becomes linguistic atom moving horizontally + playfully rather than being controlled by linguistic legitimacy. we wrote then that our use of l33t was an attempt to play rather than render our activities illegible but as mez writes we are also interested in the unstable boundaries between spam + art Spam Art the unstable boundaries between illegibilities online off this is a vry engaging hyperthread Karens we look fwd to you + all those interested other parties to participate w/you: http://in.f3xxx10n.us/post/801386850/in-f3xxx10n-us-is-an-online-art-exhibition jonCates http://blog.furtherfield.org/?q=blog/594 -- Open, Free, Public and Distributed at last. ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

Karenists utilize all of the technical means at their disposal - the press, radio, TV, movies, posters, graffiti, stickers, mail-art, networking, music, Internet, video, DVD, computers, painting, sculpture, poetry, novels, collage, montage, etc. There is no Karenism as long as one makes use, in sporadic fashion and at random, of a manifesto here, a poster or a radio program there, organizes a few apartment festivals and network meetings, writes a few slogans on the walls; that is not enough. Each usable medium has its own particular way of limited use. A video does not play on the same motives, does not produce the same feelings, does not provoke the same reactions as a poster. The very fact that the effectiveness of each medium is limited to one particular area clearly shows the necessity of complementing it with other media. A word spoken on the radio is not the same, does not produce the same effect, does not have the same impact as the identical word spoken in private conversation at an apartment festival or in a public speech before a large crowd at a stadium. To draw the individual into net of Karenism, each technique must be utilized in its own specific way, directed toward producing the effect it can best produce, and fuse with all the other media, each of them reaching the individual in a specific fashion and making her react anew to the same theme - in the same direction, but differently. We are here in this world in the presence of an self organizing reality that already controls the formation of the entire universe. We merely are creating a mythic version of it to facilitate our ability to communicate to each other about it and help to shape our expression of it. Through the myth it creates, Karenism imposes a complete range of intuitive knowledge. Intuitive knowledge - being ambiguous – is susceptible to multi-sided interpretation. This myth – due to the primal nature to which it refers - becomes so powerful that it invades every area of communication, leaving no faculty or motivation unaffected. It stimulates in the individual a feeling of all inclusiveness. Karenism has such motivational force that it engages the whole of the individual, ensuring collective noise in unison but schizophrenic. ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

Re: [NetBehaviour] Invitation to join me
Why, can't we all have the same name, and be the same person? We wouldn't even have communication. Oh, but doesn't that mean we're already splintered, since we can talk to ourselves (ie. thinking)? So, you would have to start there, by stopping thinking, etc. A lot of art can come out of it still, probably more. Also as James Morris, and Stalin, emphasize, death solves all problems, no man, no problem. But is it possible to live together without an ego (since everybody hates another man's ego)? I guess, if we could, we would continue to hate each other's death or death of ego also. Maybe we should just love each other and that would solve it? We have to love our differences, otherwise it's death again. How can we love differences?? If people don't respect me, or ignore me, etc.; and if we all die and loose difference? Why love difference, why not entropy istead? What happens if I love death instead? Why should we bother if the earth is so small as to not even be mentioned, and my life even more minute? Though for me my life is as long as eternity, and as big as the universe, as any self-reference. First of all I think we should be free, freedom is love, freedom is death, freedom is difference, etc. There's no way we can be too free, considering the dimensions of the universe (and the broad spectrum of human behaviour), there are only too many ways to make ourselves small and petty. Will we ever know the truth about who cuts the hair of the hairdresser who cuts everyone in the village except those who cut their own hair? Maybe not. Govern yourself by innocent rules might get you (man) into trouble. People committing suicice don't go to heaven, but innocent children do, but if you want to commit suicide and still go to heaven you can kill a child and be sentenced to death and go to heaven (the child will also be in heaven so no harm is done). Man is clever beyond reason. Karen ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

Re: [NetBehaviour] Invitation to join me
You have already told us a bit about your celebrity art parents. Do you feel that you are following in their footsteps? I was born on the 3rd of May 1991 to Karen Eliot and Luther Blissett at exactly the same time that the first successful double head-heart transplant was being carried out in a hospital in London. Our parents were not interested in us. They still deny my existences. They are only interested in art and politics not in how we spend our days on the Internet. Why have you issued this invitation to join you now? And why by email when everyone is so busy socialising in sites like Facebook and Twitter? Because email is the heart-and-brain, the command-and-control center of digital identity for the masses. Because, spaces like Facebook and Twitter are safe and secure. Entering them is like going into a pastel-colored milk parlor with muzak playing in the background. Everyone looks the same, acts the same and constantly tells each other that everything is alright. They are protected and controlled by the interface design and rulez and regz and they can 'like' things but they can't 'dislike' things. They become the well-behaved product of the interface. We have spent the last few years squatting in online spaces like these and watching people change shape. Sometimes getting involved too. We prefer places where we can change the interface and interact more freely. That's why we issued the first invitation to join us to the Netbehaviour list. We know that people here like to get get their hands dirty. I am a bit worried though that we might accidently allow a hostile identity to join us. This could lead to effective suicide. We could be wiped out in one blow. You asked why now? I'm not really sure but It feels like the right time to experiment with openness, freedom vulnerability on a more personal level What do you think?

Re: [NetBehaviour] DIWO: Co-Curation event 12-3pm Friday 27th November 2009
Hello Ruth all, A Dot Matrix printer, Recycling/re-using older technology sounds great... I am interested in what will be printed out on it? I remember viewing the whole co-curation event from a web cam last time, is this happening again? karen Hi Folks, A reminder about the upcoming DIWO open curation event next Friday. It will run from 12-3pm at HTTP Gallery http://www.http.uk.net/docs/gettingto.shtml and you can join us via the network. Details of how to get involved across the network will be posted here and on the blog at 10am on the morning of the event. If you are able to join us in meat-space let us know in advance so that we are sure to have enough tea and biscuits to go round. We have been thinking about how best to harness the potential concentration of so many great minds. 1) In practical preparation for co-curation we will gather all images, videos, sound files that have either been attached or linked to a DIWO email for viewing on the day. 2) We have also just bid for a v. cheap Dot Matrix printer - so we would welcome suggestions about how that might be used to display contributions. 3) We invite you to make suggestions about how to approach the curation of the exhibition over the next week. This is how we approached exhibiting DIWO email art last time (deets here http://vagueterrain.net/journal11/furtherfield/01) - we 'curated' the archive of the Netbehaviour list inbox into threads, streams, themes etc (see attached image), projected it on the wall and attached a computer so that punters could explore the mails and forward them to their own friends. - we printed out every image that was contributed - we played all the videos on a loop on a TV - we compiled all sound files and played them into the space - we had a drawing machine working for food to obscure the printed face of Karl Marx. But maybe this time we will want to take a whole new approach. Looking forward to it!

I noticed this on http://turbulence.org/networked_music_review/ Congratulations Furtherfield: Visitors Studio wins the Grand Prizegoog_1258647644699 But Rhizome- they have completely ignored it.

Hello marc Furtherfield, Wow, I just cannot understand why it has taken this long for you lot to win an award?

Re: [NetBehaviour] DIWO: a host of whys
Hello Dougald, Excuse my manners, how can I not welcome you to the list? *welcome :-) *Don't despair, this is only the beginning - I am very excited by the whole thing. I think that it is original and urgent and it was bound to create a bit of controversy. A lot of the dialogue could also be observed as part of the process of learning, in an open way, even if it does seem a bit rude and disrespectful. karen * * On Fri, Oct 30, 2009 at 4:50 PM, dougald hine writetodoug...@gmail.comwrote: Brussels, Friday 30th October - Why would I possibly care for you when you dont care for me? When you see black-and-white lines painted across the road here, they don't mean quite the same as the ones at home. Step too briskly onto a stopped escalator and you risk being thrown over as it whirrs into life. As far as I can tell, there is no code governing which side you stand on. I am a foreigner. At home, one can be a host. Away from home, one is a guest, invited or uninvited. This list is home to some of you, but I'm new round here. I am not familiar with your customs. That's OK. What makes it tricky, a paradox or a presumption, is that I am here as an invited host. - Why dont you write me a single word? Welcoming was the word Marc used to describe this list to me, I think. Since I introduced myself earlier this week, no one has said hello back.* But I have been compared to the BNP and told I can't write. (Both in the third person, as if I wasn't here.) Well, nice to meet you, too. Then again, why should I be welcome? As an invited host (invited by whom, anyway?), I am already in violation of the logic of hospitality. - Why are we reading these lists? The name intrigues me - and encourages me. It encourages me to talk about social interaction. Joining a mailing list is like walking into a room full of strangers. - Why have we gone all bold? I don't know how you would write a hesitant and provisional manifesto. Though maybe we could have a go, together. Writing a manifesto - and I've only tried it once - seems to lead you to a bolder mode of expression than you might use elsewhere. Rather like speaking through a megaphone. It is unwise to walk into a room full of strangers and begin speaking through a megaphone. - Why would the possible manifest itself? Megaphones are not without their uses. For a small, self-published pamphlet, our manifesto has been heard in a lot of places, and led to a lot of conversations. We didn't write it to proclaim ourselves saviours of the world, or of literature, or of anything else. It is not a utopian project. (Unless you are John Gray, who sees Utopia under almost everything.) It is not intended as the final word on anything, but as a starting point. - Why a book on this topic? Because our current way of living is (most likely) doomed - and 'sustainability' has come to mean sustaining that way of living at all costs. Because we will (most likely) outlive our current way of living. Because how good or bad a job we make of outliving it will (most likely) have to do with the stories we tell ourselves, as much as with our ability (for example) to measure and trade CO2e emissions. There are other reasons, but let me give you those for a start. - Why are you telling me this? I wouldn't normally take up this much space, as a new member of a list. It's a strange thing to be both a newcomer and in a privileged position, as host of DIWO at the Dark Mountain - whatever we want that to mean. Sorry if I've gone on a bit. One more thing, some words from Ivan Illich - who is, for me, one of the spirits of the Dark Mountain Project. I wonder what you think of them: Learned and leisurely hospitality is the only antidote to the stance of deadly cleverness that is acquired in the professional pursuit of objectively secured knowledge. I remain certain that the quest for truth cannot thrive outside the nourishment of mutual trust flowering into a commitment to friendship. Hoping we get to know each other better.

Perhaps, Dark Mountain kind of says this... karen Hi Dougald, Welcoming was the word Marc used to describe this list to me, I think. I think I mentioned that there was a variety good quality people on this list and that they would be open and would welcome you, something along these lines anyway. At this point, I am at a 'real' loss of what else one should say or even do. I take the blame for putting you in such a harsh place, I'm sorry, I expected something different - that'll teach me.

Re: [NetBehaviour] DIWO at The Dark Mountain
Hello all, I must say, I find the current discussions about the DIWO at the Dark Mountain project quite enthralling. One of the valuable things about DIWO and also Netbehavour, is that an awful lot of the context and meaning happens through a process of discussion and sharing thoughts and ideas whenever we all (or some of us) decide to participate or collaborate on here. I think we need to remember that this form of engagement is unique and quite a special thing, even if it may not feel positive sometimes. There are some paradigm shifting elements which I have only begun to understand, such as this experience of sharing an occassion to deconstruct whatever is collectively explored. Yet, in the past, especially with something or with someone you love, there becomes a point, a moment when deconstruction can turn into something else, I would hope and trust that some people understand what I mean by this. And of course there is more happening which I still need to evaluate, I need more time to know where I am coming from with this aspect, so forgive me if I am not as clear as I need to be here. But it relates to all this openness and sharing of dialogue on here, when taking part in projects together. The immediate thing which I can see and definitely appreciate clearly above all else, is the vulnerability and trust which is actually not much discussed or mentioned during the experience of working together on this list, yet I personally see these 2 things as essential. I actually believe that being vulnerable and trusting others is something that a project like this is asking, even if it is not said 'literally'. I want people to be more open in being vulnerable on here - I will stop here because I am worried I may be laughed at... Also, I will not be diverted by the manifesto in a literal way, I will exploit it so I can use my imagination according to my needs to understand it on my terms with a flexible mind, like an artist does :-) karen On Wed, Oct 28, 2009 at 12:41 PM, Michael Szpakowski szp...@yahoo.comwrote: Our civilisation is fucked! What are we gonna do? Well if it is reducible to that, why didn't they just say that? And if that is all they meant, why are we worrying about *art* and not *doing* something? I live for art but if I *am* in a boat going over a cataract I don't paint a picture of it. The prolix style ridiculously self-regarding and overheated tone came from the manifesto, not Edward's clinical dissection of it. I say clinical dissection, because although it's undoubtedly true that Edward can *write* whereas these folk can't, I agree what matters is the ideas and, far from a Canute moment, Edward assists us greatly here too although he admittedly draws back from the obvious conclusion, which is that there is no separation to be made between the tone of the manifesto its content. The truth is the bombast is not accidental, but integral. It arises out of a fundamental poverty of thought. The rotten style is a function of the intellectual void at the heart of the whole enterprise. Civilisation bad? OK. Let's see them give up the internet, polio, smallpox and TB vaccines, printing, film, anaesthetics, amplification, antibiotics, map making, mathematics, musical instruments, a world governed by some attempt at rationality and not ghosts, devils and malign Gods. Fuck it -let's give up the written word, which after all is an attribute of civilisation. Let's return to a lifespan of 25-35 for most people, carried for the most part in a desperate attempt at subsistence... Why not go even go further back in the search for a chimerical purity, the one that relieves us of the responsibility of actually *doing* anything that might change anything, and give up cooking food. Artistically the, quite random, privileging of stories could come straight out of one of those expensive screenwriting courses which both contribute to and in turn chart the market led corruption of the art of film... Just to be slightly more polemical, too, on the question of localism. To spell it out - who are the current most high profile proponents of the idea of artistic localism in this country? - the bloody BNP, with their, in fairiness unrequited, love affair with English folk music. Of course I'm not accusing the manifesto authors of being soft on Nazism, just of a failure to read history, to be even a tiny bit politically literate, to look and to think. I think you're right on your central point though, Bob -the manifesto does essentially boil down to those two phrases, which is why it's a recipe for utter political passivity with a couple of quite randomly subjective and unthought out artistic afterthoughts bolted on. michael --- On Wed, 10/28/09, bob catchpole bobcatchp...@yahoo.co.uk wrote: From: bob catchpole bobcatchp...@yahoo.co.uk Subject: Re: [NetBehaviour] DIWO at The Dark Mountain To: NetBehaviour for networked distributed creativity

Hello,
This all feels rather timely, I have read all of the manifesto and at first
I thought it was a bit long, by the end of reading it all I am now raring to
go! I think that it is beautiful and genuine. I do feel that it is going to
be quite a challenge though, and I hope that we can live up the challenge
also...
I also read the eight principles
http://www.dark-mountain.net/about-2/principles/
which are also very interesting, especially these sentences taken from the
larger text:
4. We will reassert the role of story-telling as more than mere
entertainment. It is through stories that we weave reality.
5. Humans are not the point and purpose of the planet. Our art will begin
with the attempt to step outside the human bubble. By careful attention, we
will reengage with the non-human world.
6. We will celebrate writing and art which is grounded in a sense of
place and of time. Our literature has been dominated for too long by those
who inhabit the cosmopolitan citadels.
7. We will not lose ourselves in the elaboration of theories or
ideologies. Our words will be elemental. We write with dirt under our
fingernails.

Re: [NetBehaviour] Wanted Works: Le Dejeuner Sur l'Herbe by O.Brody K.Paetau
Hello Kristofer, Thank you for your answers. I only ask, because I feel your work seems to deliberately incorporate an agenda where, reactions or interpretations of a similar type are an important factor, an essence of the work's nature and purpose, perhaps not its whole reasoning but it does seem essential. Even though people don't write themselves it is interesting for them to read what other people wrote we believe. Yes, I think it is an important pert of the process, part of its growth or presence - this could be said for most art and its dialogue culturally. OK - so my next enquiry relates to art and controversy. Are there any examples in your own work or others work where you think that they may have crossed the line, or do you think that anyone or anything is fair game? One of your projects which I found very interesting which was a kind of 'cultural' intervention, was 'A Visit to a Mosque' http://www.slashseconds.org/issues/003/002/articles/brodypaetau2/index.php From my own perspective this seems a mild intervention, but of course it symbolises something stronger when we take the position of those who's lives exist around the mosque, as a part of their sacred and daily ritual. The camera movement ends with the sight of a pair of brown cowboy boots standing on the floor under the shelves, witness of a visitor whose shoes wouldn't fit into the shelves. The provocative presence of this alien intruder is undermined by the natural and smooth character of a random observation. We find ourselves confronted with our own stereotypes created mainly by media. Cowboy boots are a stereotypical pair of items which we all expect Americans to wear, but we know that many different people chose to wear these items around the world, but Muslims? What I saw from this work was an attempt to create a playful paradigm shift when placing such items in an environment which has experienced prejudice as well as a culture of violence, not only from racists and negative media representation but also from some its own factions of religious extremism. So, in this context, the boots themselves could be perceived as an invasion into another culture's space. I look forward to discussing further soon. Karen we believe criticism is interesting and important, therefore we invite people to criticise our works online and keep the criticisms as part of the documentation. We don't feel like starting a discussion with those anonymous criticisms although sometimes people start responding to each others comments which is fine if it happens. So to answer your first question YES there are several points in criticizing asn making it possible to do it. Even though people don't write themselves it is interesting for them to read what other people wrote we believe. NO, a reaction from the public whatever it might be is not the main purpose of our work, although it certainly is one purpose.

Hello James, I have downloaded XorCurses today, I remember someone on here played your game a little while back. I think it may of been Corrado (I may be mistaken) who seems to be like, a games specialist of some kind. I cannot remember his comments on the game though, I hope they were balanced ;-) I'm new to linux, most of my own work is either collage or in the streets somewhere and everywhere, and I seem to not be that interested in putting my own work up on the Internet. I value viewing, discovering and experiencing other people's art made on the Internet very much, and really respect a lot of what I find. This is my main list for reading about people's artwork on the Internet, plus furtherfield, neural and digicult - these lot seem the most passionate about it, and offering things without you having to pay money to be part of its community, which informs me that they love the art and respect the artists as well, which I think is extremely important and very rare in the art world generally. I began working upon XorCurses. It had a faster more efficient (ie the current version is quite badly coded) But I like this, I think perfection is over-rated and could easily become a diversion from understanding process;-) I read in an interview with Heath Bunting a while back that he thought that the most interesting work will be by artists who are working from their bedrooms and putting it out, up onto the Internet and not necessarily from studios, I like this idea. I keep meaning to get back to some physical-matter-based creativity, such as the pencil pushing shown in 'Diary of a Monster' but I have this addiction to the computer which keeps getting in the way. And there's a fair amount of work made over the past couple of years I'm yet to document on the site too. I think that working on the Internet will have its 'special' period and in the end everything will be locked down and blocked by various forms of shallow, corporate commercialism, so I'd say do as much as you can now. before the buggers take it all away. karen. Hi Karen, Thanks for the kind words. I've not redesigned it since around November/December. I had been working on a further redesign which got put on hold when I began working upon XorCurses. It had a faster more efficient (ie the current version is quite badly coded) keywords system. Keyword Overkill is the top-level keyword listing displaying every keyword I've tagged my pages. I have a habit of tagging pages with more than 5 keywords at a time, usually, hence the overkill. Anyway, thanks again, it's good to hear that someone enjoys it when I've been feeling rather negative about it lately.

Re: [NetBehaviour] visiting jwm's art work today...
Hello James, I have not visited your site for a few months now and apologise for this, it has been a treat to visit it once again - have you re-designed it, because it feels much easier to browse through now? I have spent a bit of my time looking and listening to your work today and I have really enjoyed it (do not want to be too come across as smaltzy (chicago terminology for being cheesy), but it's what I think. On exploring various visual works (and many sketches) on your site, I have been listening to your music at the same time as viewing. One of my fave tracks is definitely Slow Beet Root - the page - http://www.jwm-art.net/light.php?p=j20081215-1509s=0.5 and the files itself just in case other's wish to hear it - http://www.jwm-art.net/art/audio/slowbeetroot.mp3 - I am also downloading other tracks to listen to as well. I also enjoyed your keyword system for finding tracks - this page is a perfect example of how extensive it is and how dedicated you are in trying to make it work - http://www.jwm-art.net/light.php?p=keywordsk=audios=0.5- great fun in finding sounds here :-) And you have also created the facility of 'themes', interface pages to view keywords, http://www.jwm-art.net/o7.php?p=keywordss=0.5 this theme is called 'Theme Overkill'. I especially enjoyed one of your drawing projects called 'Diary of Monster'. http://www.jwm-art.net/art/image/domonster_3.jpg But then there is this stuff as well - http://www.jwm-art.net/o7.php?p=abovemyhead-detail-3s=0.5 which is called Above My Head 1000ft - Detail 3, Which is a beautiful painting in acrylics, this feels quite vulnerable.

There is a lot of material to shift, so if strange things happen on furtherfield, the netbehaviour list and other connected platforms - please forgive us, we will be trying to make this change-over as smooth as possible.

Re: [NetBehaviour] New project Zumzum Gallery: Counter Theory of Colors
Hello Montserrat, I am an emerging artist, but your criteria mentions that submissions can only include those who are under 30, and you only accept art that is apolitical, thus having no interest in or association with politics - as a gallery criteria. For me, the most interesting, dynamic and exciting emerging art has some form of political thought somewhere in its make-up. I am worried that your decision to only have younger artists who are not doing anything that includes political concepts is cutting out an awful lot of excellent talent... I am wondering, is it dangerous in your part of the world to allow creative people to refer to anything political? looking forward to your answers. karen - 33 years of old age.

Re: [NetBehaviour] Art University Linz institutes a new award
Hello Aileen, It cannot be that civil courage is politically penalized in our country. It looks like the media and governments in our 'lol' democracies(?) are choosing to crack down on those who are challenging capitalist and corporate agendas - choosing corporations to protect rather than supporting people - what a surprise! karen Dametzstrasse 30, 4020 Linz It cannot be that civil courage is politically penalized in our country. Especially in times of crisis, in which media and politics like to appeal to the fundamental principles of human communality, it is a scandal that a member of our community is punished and subjected to political pressure for attempting to prevent violence against someone weaker. We specifically refer to the events of 1 May 2009 in Linz and to the arrest of the Vice Rector of the Art University, Rainer Zendron. The few statements from politicians that have made it into the media have all been personal attacks – see, for instance, commentaries in the newspaper OOe Nachrichten from 4 May 2009 – and only a few public voices spoken up in his defence. Therefore, it is up to us as committed members of the Art University Linz to put Rainer Zendron as a person and in his importance for the way our university works into the right light. For this reason, we have initiated a distinction that is to be awarded annually starting this year to those persons who have especially distinguished themselves by their outstanding civil courage. This prize is to be ceremoniously awarded on 19 May 2009 at 7 pm in the large hall of the Offenes Kulturhaus Upper Austria to Vice Rector Rainer Zendron. In this way, we seek to demonstrate not only that we take a position as a united body – as the university – on this situation set in motion by the incident on May 1st, but also to express solidarity with the victims of police violence and arbitrariness, who unfortunately have no lobby in the media. We are an educational institution! And we will not accept being put under pressure, neither from the media nor from party politics! And we call for the charges against Rainer Zendron and the other persons arrested on 1 May 2009 to be dropped! -- ... in so many words: http://eliot.at___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
Re: [NetBehaviour] Climate Change protesters: mobilise or repress?
Hello Ruth, thank you for posting this info :-) Climate change groups have been treated like criminals in the UK. The contrast is amazing, even if it is at type of propaganda - for it to be released on television to a large audience, acts as a clear question of why the UK is acting in such a unreasonalbe way? karen./,} http://tinyurl.com/dhqxel Last night on BBC2's Newsnight, 'Ethical man' broadcast an item about political attitudes to climate change in the US. Obama is promoting a 'cap and trade' approach to reducing national carbon emissions saying we need to make clean renewable energy profitable. In support of this policy the Environmental Protection Agency has recently been empowered to enforce regulation on carbon emissions. While it's tough to evaluate the efficacy of this approach it is was pretty surprising to see the evident difference in attitude to climate change activists taken by the US and UK governments. 12000 climate activists gathered in washington in an act of mass civil disobedience aimed at closing down the power plant that supplies congressional buildings. In one room activists were trained in tactics for civil disobedience, in another US cabinet members gave rousing speeches of solidarity and support to the protesters and against carbon-based energy business. Obama appears to have his shoulder to every possible wheel to get bills through Congress and Senate and mobilising protesters is just another of these wheels. There is something unnerving in this populist politiking but it is preferable to the preemptive attacks by police on peaceful UK climate change protesters. No?? :??

Hello Marc Ruth, I have signed up - I know it's mad, but I have a worrying feeling that most people out there are more likely to choose their careers and carry on with their flights, over the planet's safety. It is an extremely challenging request. We'll see - great idea by the way. I also like the image created for it :-) karen On Sun, Apr 12, 2009 at 2:16 PM, Ruth Catlow ruth.cat...@furtherfield.orgwrote: We won't fly for art for six months but only if 6 others will do the same AND replicate this pledge by 26th April 2009 http://www.pledgebank.com/wewontflyforart - Marc and Ruth We will not take an aeroplane for the sake of art. For the next 6 months we will find other ways to visit and participate in exhibitions, fairs, conferences, meetings, residencies. We will not fly for inspiration, nor to appreciate, buy or sell art. But only if 6 others will do the same AND replicate this pledge. This pledge is designed for exponential growth so if you persuade another 6 people to do the same, within a year you could be one of millions of people changing the way the artworld works. So sign up, create a replica pledge and share your own experiences, observations and arguments towards reducing art flights. Post a link to it in the comment box so others can find their way to it. This is a public art experiment in the de-escalation of carbon-fuelled, high altitude, high-velocity, global art careering. For six months we choose to cover less physical distance, move more slowly between destinations, to look futureward with more attention to the view from the ground and the network, for ways to connect with others around the world. Who can sign up to this pledge? Any individual involved in the arts: artist (in the broadest sense), curator, art administrator, art appreciator, gallerist, art critic, art historian, art academic, art technician, art security, art transporter etc. Whether you currently fly for art 50 times a year or never, your engagement will change things by making your position in the artworld visible and by offering an alternative perspective. If you work with others you may need to completely revise your schedules and budgets and lobby for the right not to fly. This is to light the blue touch paper of Gustave Metzger's Reduce Art Flights campaign using the generative and viral capabilities of social networks. We want to know more about the impact of air-flight on the artworld (and beyond). We intuit that abstaining from air flight will motivate and enable people (with more time, money, energy and attention) to relate differently to their own local cultures and to connect more imaginatively to other cultures.

April 1, 2009 7:00 pmto 9:00 pm http://www.mztek.org/http:/www.mztek.org/ruth-catlow/ Hey folks, Don’t miss our next MzTEK Unplugged session on April 1, presenting Ruth Catlow from Furtherfield.org and HTTP Gallery. When: Wednesday, April 1, 7 - 9pm Where: Leon Bankside, , 7 Canvey Street, SE1 0HS (behind the Tate Modern) Ruth will be talking about Furtherfield.org, an independent media arts organisation that provides contexts and platforms for creating, viewing, discussing and learning about experimental practices at the intersection of art, technology and social change. www.furtherfield.org www.http.uk.net Ruth is a media artist, educator and co-founder and co-director of Furtherfield.org and HTTP Gallery in North London. She works collaboratively with other artists, technologists, musicians, writers, activists and thinkers from around the world, to devise and realise artistic projects that explore relationship, connectedness and participation; developing platforms with their own distinct artistic and social contexts. Her work has been exhibited internationally and in the UK at venues including the CCA, Glasgow and The Baltic, Gateshead. www.furtherfield.org Open to the public. Free. About We are a not for profit cooperative group supported by [ Space ] ( http://www.spacemedia.org.uk/) that aims to extend career development and education opportunities for women working or wishing to work in media and/or computer arts sectors. MzTEK aims to do this through informal talks, peer-to-peer learning and a unique taught course whose curriculum will be directed by the learners. It is our hope that with funding, we will be able to provide a low-cost, high-calibre series of talks and workshops. We currently seek students, tutors, and willing co-organizers to help us put together a smashing curriculum for our course (uTEK) and for our pub sessions (Unplugged) and peer-to-peer sessions (P2P). ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
Re: [NetBehaviour] Ada Lovelace Day, some questions...
Hiya Marc Netbehaviourists,
I may of missed some bits of info about the support of Ada Lovelace Day
project. So if it is not too painful for you to repeat what might have
already been discussed, could I bother you with a couple of questions?
One thing I need to know from you is that, when the furtherfield crew
compile all of the proposals sent in by everyone tomorrow, is whether after
this happens, can subscribers still mail their proposals?
The reason I am asking this is because I still have some that I wish to add,
and a couple of my friends have just recently subscribed and I am not sure
if they will be posting before Friday.
The other thing is - I mailed something to the list yesteday (unrelated to
Ada Lovelace) and for some reason it did not appear. I remember that someone
else had this problem also a couple of days ago. Is there something wrong
with the server at all?
I wanted to say how much I have been enjoying seeing all of the
contributions to Netbehaviour, and I want to thank you and everyone else who
has taken part in doing something as special and important as this. I am
sure this is going to be a great resource for many in the future - it's very
exciting, thanks for making the effort :-)

Re: [NetBehaviour] Furtherfield in Support of Ada Lovelace Day
Hi Marc, Thank you for your response to my own propositions for Ada Lovelace Day. Even though, as you mention the external links to the Laura Lee article about Sadie Plant's publication 'Zeros + Ones, Digital Women + The New Technoculture', are dead now. I found the text that Laura wrote extremely interesting as valuable context, especially these words Viewing the world as a system of all-inclusive interconnectivity, what were once isolated words, numbers, music, shapes, smells, tactile textures, architectures (Plant, 12) are now threaded together by their material essences. The yarn is neither metaphorical nor literal, but quite simply material. Plant suggests that the world becomes one immersive reality in which all things relate in a structure that does not denote one thing as less important than another. Perceiving the world as a network, each part can dismantle the whole structure, like a removing a string from a woven blanket. When we surf the web, we transgress through multiple texts and perspectives, digital images and architectures that form our cohesiveness of the cyberworld as a whole. Any missing link can change the whole structure. I think that Sadie is an important individual for media art culture generally, and she just so happens to be female, although a decent one and also beautiful writer. Also, I am glad that you brought up Francesca da Rimini's other work with VNS Matrix. They started in 1991, wow - time has moved on... I do have a question! Is it OK if there are repeats, if people choose the same women will they still be seen in the final document? karen x_- Da Femme-Rulez ;-) /~~~\ | | | | __\___/__ ,' `, | | | | | ,' `, | ,' | | `, | | | | `\,' `,/' | | `---' | | | | | | | | | | | | |__|__| Hi Karen, Thanks for sharing your Ada Lovelace Day suggestions and I'm looking forward to reading all the other selections still to come by others on this list. The Laura Lee text is fascinating in its own right, unfortunately many of the links on her review page referencing different aspects about Ada Lovelace do not work anymore, which is a shame. It was a pleasure to re-explore Francesca da Rimini's work again. I especially remember VNS Matrix which Francesca da Rimini was part of, founded in 1991. The other members were Josephine Starrs, Julianne Pierce and Virginia Barratt. On wikipedia it mentions that they were the first to use the term 'cyberfeminism', not sure if it is true or if such a claim really matters, but VNS Matrix did some excellent work and not all of it can be seen on-line anymore. Here is a biography - http://www.medienkunstnetz.de/artist/vns-matrix/biography/ Dollspace, which Da Rimini was also part of is still a great net art piece. I love its edgyness - http://dollyoko.thing.net//title.htm wishing you well. marc Hello everyone, I must say, I am quite excited about this opportunity to promote those women who have inspired me, changed the world in their own special ways 'bringing women in technology to the fore' is a great idea. Also, it could not of come at a better time, in light of all the nasty things happening in the world. Anyway - I am sticking to Ruth's example/format, it seems easier. Especially if the furtherfield crew are going to compile all of this stuff. MY NAME: Karen Blissett. Sadie Plant - I love her work, especially 'Zeros + Ones, Digital Women + The New Technoculture'. Sadie Plant introduces Ada Lovelace as a woman whose awareness of peripheries, of indices, headings, prefaces, etc. gave her a new way of perceiving reality. In her footnoted, non-fictional texts, these peripheral details were crucial in contextualizing the texts in historical and social reality. Laura Lee. Laura's review on the book http://www.cyberartsweb.org/cpace/body/lgl1.html Francesca da Rimini - I have always enjoyed Francesca's net art work as well as her other works/collaborations to do with networked culture. Francesca da Rimini, aka GashGirl, (Adelaide/Rome) has been working in the field of new media since 1984 as an arts manager, curator, corporate geisha girl, cyberfeminist, puppet mistress and ghost. One of the original members of VNS Matrix, the Australian cyberfeminism group formed in 1991. Worked in New York on a project in collaboration with Michael Grimm, snafu and Ricardo Dominguez, los dias y las noches del muertos, and with Ricardo Dominguez on hauntings.

And has been incredible in supporting other emerging artists as well as maintaining in still making interesting and challenging artwork with technology. One project springs to mind - 'Rethinking Wargames', a participative net art project instigated by Ruth Catlow of which calls for 'pawns to join forces to defend world peace'. It uses the game of chess to find strategies that challenge existing power structures and their concomitant war machineries. http://www.low-fi.org.uk/rethinkingwargames/ Hope Kurtz (1959–2004) - Such a talent . I remember seeing Hope perform in Amsterdam in 95 or 96, at the Next Five Minutes Conference - I was mesmerized by her articulation and excellent performance presence, and imaginitive intelligence. Hope worked behind the scenes of the CAE collective by contributing to the conceptual basis for their work. It is through her brilliant editing that their work articulates challenging concepts to a multifarious audience—many of whom might not otherwise come into contact with such radical thought. The Ensemble collectively authored several books including Electronic Civil Disobedience and other unpopular Ideas... http://www.thebrooklynrail.org/arts/july04/hopekurtz.html The Critical Art Ensemble site - http://www.critical-art.net/ That's it for now. will be back with more. karen On Sun, Mar 22, 2009 at 7:31 PM, Ruth Catlow ruth.cat...@furtherfield.orgwrote: Hi Netbehaviourists, In support of Ada Lovelace Day (highlighted by Marc and discussed a couple of weeks back) we are inviting all women who work in media arts and net art, who are not already subscribed, to join the NetBehaviour email list for a week between 23rd and 30th March. We are asking them to squat the list for a week (of course we hope they'll stick around for longer:) and tell us about their work and that of other women who have inspired them in their own practice. This is not a separatist excercise; we want to hear from all of you so don't hold back. Posts are welcome in any length, format and frequency and we are not worrying about repeats or gaps. The following is offered as an example. MY NAME: Ruth Catlow URL: http://www.furtherfield.org/display_user.php?ID=14 INSPIRED BY: Ele Carpenter - http://www.elecarpenter.org.uk/ for tech inspired and facilitated participation with Open Source Embroidery, her curatorial project exploring artists practice that explores the relationship between programming for embroidery and computing.

Women's contributions often go unacknowledged, their innovations seldom mentioned, their faces rarely recognised. We want you to tell the world about these unsung heroines. Whatever she does, whether she is a sysadmin or a tech entrepreneur, a programmer or a designer, developing software or hardware, a tech journalist or a tech consultant, we want to celebrate her achievements. It doesn't matter how new or old your blog is, what gender you are, what language you blog in, or what you normally blog about - everyone is invited to take part. All you need to do is sign up to this pledge and then publish your blog post any time on Tuesday 24th March 2009. If you're going to be away that day, feel free to write your post in advance and set your blogging system to publish it that day. We will gather as many of the posts together on the day as we can, and we'll let you know exactly how we're going to do that nearer the time. For ongoing updates about Ada Lovelace day, please follow us on Twitter, join our mailing list or see our blog. http://findingada.com/ http://twitter.com/FindingAda http://groups.yahoo.com/group/findingada Who was Ada? Ada Lovelace was one of the world's first computer programmers, and one of the first people to see computers as more than just a machine for doing sums. She wrote programmes for Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine, a general-purpose computing machine, despite the fact that it was never built. She also wrote the very first description of a computer and of software. On Sun, Feb 22, 2009 at 12:14 PM, marc garrett marc.garr...@furtherfield.org wrote: Ada Lovelace Day. Bringing women in technology to the fore. I've mainly stayed away from the discussion of gender issues in technology. I didn't think that I had any real expertise to share.

They feel invisible, lacking in confidence, and unsure how to compete for attention with the men around them. Then I see the stupid puerile misogynistic manner with which some of the more powerful voices in the tech community - some of them repeat offenders - treat women, and it makes me very cross indeed. The objectification of women is bad enough when it's done by the media, but when it's done by a conference organiser or tech commentator or famous tech publication, what message does it send?

Re: [NetBehaviour] NEW! Kaspar Hauser is learning Farsi
Hello Sim, A direct and beautifully menacing piece. The biggest lesson that could be learned for future generations here is that beauty has been hijacked by absolutists who will kill so to uphold and maintain their wretched delusions. Ignorance is distributed like a deadly weapon, with a shameful mix of moralism pitting against, the real truth of beauty. Proposing that myself and other women are arbitrary, lacking in depth when compared to their untouchable abstractions. A double speak that encourages submission to a misplaced appropriation of power, which stands ever stronger against and above love for humanity. These simplistic and pathetic men admire the gaining of control over others through their actions of sinister misconceptions. How convenient it is for such men to have god on their side as they commit their mortal slaughters on those who dream beyond their own childish dreams. Such men do not understand or know beauty for they lack the essential ingredients that one needs in not hurting another soul. It is not religion that is the threat it is those who use this untouchable abstraction, so to entrap my sisters and others in the name of whatever they feel can gain them ultimate power. They lack something that is so deep that it cuts out a vacuum which is so big, that it begins reflect how vast their fear of love is, thus fear of life... My beauty can see through all these pathetic mechanisms...
