Eric,

Thanks for your thoughtful reply.  I don't quite agree though.

I cannot accept letting FEMA and the federal government off the hook so easily. 
FEMA has realized for more than 4 years that one of the worst possible disaster 
it
had to plan for was just what happened. Did it plan? Not unless it wanted to 
take
the opportunity to take over the city for the federal government, as some blogs
are claiming (though even they are mum on whether this would have been planned 
in
advance).

Even if primary responsibility in some sense rests with the city and state, it
would have been easy for FEMA to have worked out and coordinated with them
detailed plans on how to respond to disasters of various magnitudes in advance.
Surely 9-11 showed the necessity of this.

Louisiana is a poor state, New Orleans a poor city.  We can't expect every 
little
borough or hamlet to have adequate disaster plans. Planning for emergencies is
complex, and requires a high degree of professionalism, with many tasks that 
must
be adequately coordinated. It only makes sense that this capacity can be far 
more
fully developed at the federal level than at state or local, and this
responsibility for making sure plans are ready should clearly be at that top
level. I have heard repeated claims that laws and even the Constitution require
that states have ultimate power in this, but it's obviously easy for the federal
government to force the state's hands quite thoroughly if it wants to. Just as
seatbelt requirements have been tied to federal highway money, federal
disaster-related grants could and should be tied to a coordinated plan. FEMA 
under
Clinton apparently regularly did such things, but this was undone under Bush.

Further, I don't see how responsibility to decide whether or not to evacuate can
be placed on individual citizens. We make it a law that people in cars or planes
must wear seat belts. It is not left up to their individual decisions, just as 
it
is not an individual choice whether to stop at a red light. To make it possible 
to
buckle up we require that cars and planes be equipped with the seat belts. In 
the
same way, New Orleans residents could not be expected to leave if not offered
transportation, a destination, and assurances that their homes would be 
protected
as far as possible against destruction, and that they could return. Even those
with means to leave cannot always view the situation dispassionately enough to
decide whether their own safety requires that they do leave. Home can be hard to
give up. (My own grandparents had ample warning =97 years =97 that, as Jews, 
they
should leave Nazi Germany, but they never could believe the danger, and so died.
Had there been some authority able to get them out of harm's way, which failed 
to
do so, I would have held that authority culpable, but not them themselves.)

Certainly these neighborhoods are problematic. But destroying a community

Español: 

Favor circular. 

Este mes de septiembre, en la conferencia de la Organización Mundial del

Comercio (OMC) de Cancún, el representante comercial de Estados Unidos 
intentará extender el poder de la OMC a los servicios de comunicaciones 
y audiovisuales.  Esto incluye tanto el cine, la radio, la televisión y 
la producción musical, como los servicios de distribución mediática, 
sean satélites, servicios de cable y de radio y teledifusión. 

El resultado podría ser desastroso para muchos sistemas mediáticos de 
todo el mundo. Las regulaciones estadounidenses que favorecen la 
diversidad mediática, el localismo y el interés público podrían ser 
atacadas bajo el pretexto de ser "barreras al comercio". Los límites a 
la propiedad de medios y los programas federales y estatales que en 
Estados Unidos fomentan la diversidad de los medios también podrían ser 
considerados violaciones al comercio. 

Por favor, acuda a la página www.mediareform.net/global. Firme la 
petición. Hágala circular entre [EMAIL PROTECTED] que se preocupan por los medios o 
por los temas globales. La petición Se entregará al Congreso 
estadounidense justo antes de la conferencia de la OMC, a mediados de 
septiembre.

Please post to all media reform and global issues lists: 

This September at the World Trade Organization (WTO) meeting in Cancun, 
Mexico, the US Trade Representative will attempt to expand the WTO's
power over Communications and Audiovisual Services. This includes film,
radio, television, video, and music production, as well as media
distribution services such as satellite, cable and broadcast. 

The result could spell disaster for vibrant media systems worldwide: US 
regulations that favor media diversity, localism and the public interest
could be attacked as "barriers to trade." Media ownership limits, as
well as Federal and state programs that encourage diverse media, could be
considered outright trade violations. 

Please go to www.mediareform.net/global. Sign the petition. Pass it
along to others concerned with media or global issues. The petition will be
delivered to Congress shortly before the WTO meeting in mid-September. 

A massive wave of public pressure is essential to move Congress to block

An Interdisciplinary Conference


Glasgow School of Art, UK

21-22 November 2003



"How real can you get?"
This two-day conference will debate the subject of Œthe real¹ in aesthetic
philosophy, criticism and practice.

"When is representation not real?"
Recent years have seen notions of reality discussed in the open. What
relationship do current views developed by this discourse have with those
tenets of realism and representation that once provided the foundation for
aesthetic study? What are the philosophical consequences of the introduction
of technologies that increasingly blur the boundaries between art and
popular culture? What is the effect of aesthetic culture on Realpolitik?
What has happened to the notions of social realism, verisimilitude, and the
imaginary? Are they still relevant, and how have they been changed, if at
all?

"Reclaiming the real."
The organizers are also interested in how notions of reality are affected
by, and continue to affect, aesthetic practice in the fields of art, design,
and media production. With the popularity of haptic technologies, what has
happened to Œreal¹ haptics? How do practitioners and academics view older
technologies in the light of their electronic avatars? With the development
of notions of virtual space, what has happened to our understanding of the
body, the mind, and corporeal space?

The conference will include panels on these issues, and also on The Body,
Photography, Museum Studies, Design, Cinema and Urban Space.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

[apologies for cross-posting. please forward to interested parties as 
appropriate]

The Life of Mobile Data:
Technology, Mobility and Data Subjectivity

April 15  16, 2004
University of Surrey, England

The rapid adoption and diffusion of mobile devices over the past decade has 
transformed the way information is generated, organized and communicated 
about individuals and their lives. The construction of new mobile data 
profiles and of mobile, informatic selves, hold the potential to transform 
what is organizationally and interpersonally meant by privacy, 
individuality, community, risk, trust, and reciprocity in a mobilizing, and 
globalizing world.

In order to examine these transformations, the RIS:OME project at the 
University of Surrey is hosting an international, interdisciplinary 
conference to address emerging social and cultural relations of mobility, 
privacy, identity, information and communication. This conference will 
bring together academic, industry and policy researchers and practitioners 
to critically address how mobile information and communications 
technologies structure relations of privacy, security, trust, power, 
identity and difference.

There are a number of questions that inform the themes of the conference. 
In what ways, for example, do mobiles reconfigure the relations of trust, 
risk, privacy and reciprocity embedded in organizational and interpersonal 
data sharing? In what ways do mobiles contribute to the construction of 
identity and of the 'information self'? What is the relationship between 
mobile data and the individual? Who owns and controls the emerging, 
individualized mobile data image? What roles do consumption and consumerism 
play in the social relations of privacy, trust and security? Is the 
development of mobile technologies associated with emerging relations of 
risk, uncertainty and privatisation?

What social, cultural and regulatory factors have influenced the generation 
of mobile data in different countries? How do these factors influence 
culturally specific understandings and practices of globalized and 
transnational privacy, risk and trust? Are regimes of information sharing 
and data protection patterned along axes of development and 
underdevelopment? What roles do national differences and political 
economies play in the construction of emerging mobile data relations? How 
are politics reconfigured within and between countries via mobile data 
technologies and changing mobilities?

What critical approaches can be brought to bear on our understanding of 
diversity, difference and resistance in the generation of mobile data? How 
can we account for the rapid uptake of mobile devices, and the development 
of mobile data sharing, both now and in the future?

We seek to bring critical perspectives to bear on the development and 
widespread uptake of mobile technologies and developments in information 
sharing and data profiling over the last decade. The conference organizers 
thus invite papers presenting empirically grounded and theoretically 
informed analyses of the social changes that mobile technologies and their 
data relations have brought about. Suggested themes could include, but are

incomplete dislocations [interactive media art] collective
Liz Mac Dougall, Coordinator, 6161 Allan Street, Halifax, NS B3L 1G7 
902.444-6869 [EMAIL PROTECTED]


INVITATION to "re:location" EXHIBITION

The Incomplete Dislocations Collective is pleased to announce the 
opening of "re:location", an exhibition of 10 interactive digital 
works by NS artists. On Tuesday, August 19th at 7:30 pm at our 
temporary store-front gallery, 2203 Gottingen Street (at Cunard).

Curated by Liz Mac Dougall of the Incomplete Dislocations (ID) 
Collective, this exhibit is the result of a year long project where 
artists working in more traditional media were invited to make 
digital art reflecting their existing artistic interests. 
Participating artists were given technical support, workshops in 
digital media, and mentorship throughout the six months of 
production. For the local new media arts scene the resulting show 
breaks new ground in scale, in the uses of interactive technologies, 
and in the diversity of presenting artists.

To title re:location refers to the dislocation inherent in digital 
media. To live in a technologically mediated culture is to live 
dislocation as a quality of daily life. Communications, from mass 
media to more intimate exchanges are increasingly reliant on new 
technologies and are, therefore, disembodied mediations. The works 
can be looked at from the perspective of 'location', and our 
investment in identifying our conceptual location in a dislocated 
hyper-mediated environment.

The work of 'bluegirl' a virtual persona exemplifies this 
technological dislocation as the bluegirl.biz site is the only place 
she lives. Her site employs interactive freeware to an extreme degree 
in an attempt to make friends, find dates and communicate her 
philosophy without ever leaving home. Shawn MacLeod and Stephan 
Schulz's talking monitor piece asks that the viewer move monitors to 
create conversation between them in a reversal of the 
human/technological paradigm. Barbara Bickle's installation of a 
painting and a fax machine demonstrates the alteration of the art 
space via technology - a critical yet ironically accepting piece. 
These dislocations are amidst others that we experience on many other 
levels, cultural, racial, geographical etc.

The FLYING SAUCER CAFE reading/media series is starting again!


TUESDAY, AUGUST 12, 7:00, At the FLYING SAUCER CAFE in BROOKLYN -

AYA KARPINSKA and TIM PETERSON

(See below for details)


***


AYA KARPINSKA


Aya Karpinska's research and creative work focus on the impact of
technology on artistic practice, in particular computer-mediated music
and literature. Her diverse output includes computer music, fiction,
poetry, web and graphic design, and game design. She recently performed
at Tonic in New York City with her electronic music instrument, container
for sound.

Ms. Karpinska received her Master's degree from the Interactive
Telecommunications Program at New York University.

http://www.technekai.com/aya/

notes for container for sound
A box containing sounds waiting to be released. The performer unleashes
the composition by opening doors, flapping them like wings to manipulate
sound samples. This electronic instrument was built to explore new
interfaces for musical expression. Although it was designed to be simple
to play, the performer's physical gestures translate into a wide musical
palette.

More information on the development of this instrument can be found at:
http://www.technekai.com/aya/nime/


TIM PETERSON


Tim Peterson currently lives in Somerville, Massachusetts. He attended
Wesleyan University where he majored in art history and then went on to
get his MFA at The University of Arizona. He currently works at M.I.T.
Press.  This is Tim's first poetry reading in New York, and to mark this
event Portable Press at Yo-Yo Labs published his debut chapbook titled
CUMULUS.

The Flying Saucer Cafe series pares up new media artists with poets who
instead of giving a reading present a talk relating to their poetry and
ideas.

Tim's talk is titled "Spontaneous Generation." It focuses on writing a
gender by writing a world, and it also deals with issues of private
language, the dialogic, and spatial metonymy: issues concerning Peterson's
identity and his writing process. He says of this, "the two poles of
understanding are on the one hand the urge "to be some body," an ideal
self enforced by society, and on the other hand the limiting specificity
of the question: whose body? in what situation?"

THE FLYING SAUCER READING/MEDIA SERIES


We will be having readings the first Tuesday of each month (August an
exception). Please come and support us!

Contact Brenda Iijima or Alan Sondheim for further information.

GATES / July 4 - September 30 2003

GATES - Starting from Greece
Gates is a total new collaborative art experiment, it is a non-conventional
exhibition; one can participate not by sending video or digital work on the
topic, but creating a network, circulation of action-communication, between
real and cyberspace, between visual and word, related to the symbolic icon
of the Gate, with its metaphoric, symbolic, of computer science, and
telematic, implications, gates as ways of transit, as dimension of open, of
confrontation, of passages in every direction, at every level.

We are creating a new form of art that uses as matter e-communication,
relationship among persons, art debate, our real/virtual body, voice,
gesture (Karenina.it is all this); experimentals! artists, poets, critics,
theoreticians! e-post-Fluxus casseurs, e-post-post-duchamp-ists (?),
welcome!, Karenina.it is an open gate for what you think, and for what you
do.

GATES / 4 Luglio - 30 Settembre 2003

GATES - Partiamo dalla Grecia
Gates è un esperimento d'arte collaborativa completamente nuovo, una mostra
non convenzionale; non si partecipa inviando propri lavori in video o
immagini a tema, ma creando un network, circolazione d'azione-comunicazione
tra reale e ciberspazio, tra visualità e parole, collegati all'icona
simbolica della porta, con le sue implicazioni metaforiche, simboliche,
informatiche e telematiche, porte come vie di transito, come dimensione di
apertura, di confronto, di passaggio in ogni direzione, a ogni livello.

Stiamo creando una nuova forma d'arte che usa come materia la comunicazione
elettronica, il rapporto tra le persone, il dibattito sull'arte, il nostro
corpo/voce/gesto reali/virtuali (Karenina.it è tutto questo).
Sperimentali! artisti, poeti, critici, teorici! casseurs e-post-Fluxus,

are worn on or inside people; Context sensitive work in the museums;
Projects that float, dock or sail; Screen based media as it appears in 2004;
Sea Fair: technological gizmos for ferry travellers and future media
archaeologists to discover; Bridges between club scenes and art venues; Most
engaging works from performing arts that engage new media, users, and
audiences; Networks to network...

Key themes for the event include:
Networked experience (Stockholm)
Wearable experience (Tallinn)
Wireless experience (Helsinki)
Histories of the new: media arts, media cultures, media technologies
- - all cities

Additional themes include:
Open source and software as culture (Helsinki)
Critical interaction design (Helsinki)
Geopolitics of media (Tallinn)
Interfacing sound (Helsinki and on the Ferry - in collaboration with
Koneisto - check out http://www.koneisto.com for details of this year's
Koneisto Festival 24-26 July 2003)

We are currently inviting proposals for projects and papers for the
exhibitions, conferences and associated programs during ISEA2004.  Projects
might include: works for exhibition in a gallery; workshops; installations
in public spaces; live performance; interfaced screenings; games or shared
environments; projects which encourage remote participation - etc.

Proposals for the conference can include papers and panels but we are
equally interested in workshops and roundtables:  discussion formats that
encourage participation and exchange of ideas.

We are also working with a range of local organisations who may be able to
host short and medium term residencies or workshops for artists who are keen
to spend a longer time working with local artists and organisations.
Information on these opportunities will be regularly added to the web site,
so do register to receive updates.

OPEN CALL FOR LAUNCH OPTION BERLIN

+

An open call to musicians & sound artists for LAUNCH OPTION BERLIN

Musicians and sound artists of all kinds are invited to participate in
LAUNCH OPTION BERLIN, a joint project of Opsound and Rocket Shop, which will
take place at BueroFriedrich, Berlin, July 22-26, 2003 as part of
BueroFriedrich's month-long Open Arch program.

LAUNCH OPTION BERLIN is a test site and data gathering center, a 5-day event
devoted to discovering, collecting, playing, and listening to the sounds &
noises of Berlin.  We want to know what Berlin sounds like: Berlin real,
Berlin virtual, Berlin dreamt and desired -- from field recordings of
Oranienstrasse to the music of underground punk bands, techno tracks and
experimental audio files lurking on hard drives.  Over the five days of the
project and continuing through the internet, LAUNCH OPTION BERLIN will
create a network of exchange, a temporary gift economy of sounds inspired by
the free software and open source software communities.


How to Participate:

LAUNCH OPTION BERLIN, is gathering material for an open sound pool of
material from, about, or inspired by the idea of Berlin. (We also have a
weakness for sounds of, about, & inspired by rockets and rocket launches --
if you have any, we want them).  Anyone is welcome to add work to the sound
pool, and all material for the pool will be released under a Creative
Commons license (the "Attribution-ShareAlike license"), a  copyleft license
in the spirit of open source software licenses which allows for all kinds of
copying, remixing, use, and reuse while retaining an attribution to the
original  artist.  Sound from the pool will be played in the LAUNCH OPTION
control center at the BueroFriedrich gallery, mixed into sets by LAUNCH
OPTION djs at parties and listening salons, and made available for remix
contests and internet distribution through the opsound.org website.

To enter your work in the pool visit


Deadline: 

For practical reasons it is advisable to enter your work in the pool as soon
as possible, but entries will be accepted up to and throughout the LAUNCH
OPTION BERLIN event.

In addition, we have many slots for live performances throughout the
five-day period.  If you can be in Berlin in person during July 22-26 and
would like to perform your music or play your sounds, please contact us by
email at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Schleussner and featured monthly exhibitions in a store-front project space
in Berlin through 2002. Rocket Shop is currently in orbit and currently
presents regular exhibitions and events at venues in Berlin and abroad.

Reflecting the function of rockets and spaceships as symbols of progress and
carriers of collective visions of the future, the exhibition project is not
only interested in the

Portraits at Other Sides:

Tuesday, July 15th at Remote Lounge, 327 Bowery above 2nd St.  Doors will

The readers are:

Samuel Delany
Alan Sondheim
Rob Stephenson
Tom Zummer
Ellen Zweig

Portraits From Other Sides:

Rob Stephenson presents an evening of text, sex, video, a philosophical
dog, and maybe robots with Ellen Zweig, Alan Sondheim, Tom Zummer and
special guest Samuel R. Delany.


Remote Lounge is a revolutionary new concept in nightlife entertainment.
Located in downtown Manhattan, it is a technology-themed cocktail lounge
and new media art space unlike anything else in the world. The lounge is
outfitted with over 60 video cameras - covering every square foot of the
space from multiple angles - and this live video is displayed on over 100
output devices, such as CRTs, LCDs, large format plasma screens and video
projectors. Into this mix of live feeds are an ever-changing roster of
digital and analog video artworks, animation, special effects, web-based
art and interactive multimedia created by both emerging and established
new media artists.


Samuel R Delany is a writer and literary critic. Delany is best known for
writing extensively in the mainstream science fiction and fantasy genres.
He has won four Nebula Awards.  The best-selling novel. Dhalgren, has sold
over a million copies.  He is also the author of a number of fictional and
autobiographical works that include references to extreme aspects of human
sexuality.  His most recent novel is The Madman.

Tom Zummer studied philosophy under Michel Foucault and Jacques Derrida,
and is an artist and curator.  "Zummer's uncanny portraits of robots are
beautiful and out of this world.  He is also a theorist, book designer,
professor, and comic art novelist, Zummer's artistic talents are as
eclectic as they are numerous."  The Austin Chronicle

Alan Sondheim is a writer/multimedia theorist (editor of Being On Line).
Alan is a poet and critic who writes on and about the Internet.  His books
include Disorders of the Real, and the anthology Being on Line.  He
co-moderates several email lists, including Fiction of Philosophy,
Cybermind, and Cyberculture.  He was also virtual writer-in-residence for
the trAce (sic) online writing community at the beginning of this year; he
worked on a number of collaborative projects at The Lost Project at trAce,
and his trAce projects are collected in their Writers-in-Residence
archives.

Ellen Zweig is an artist who works with video, audio, installation and
performance.  Her most recent work is the video series, HEAP, a collection
of experimental portraits of Westerners who have studied, invented,
misunderstood and loved China.  "(tongue tongue stone) G. W. Leibnitz"
premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam, 2003.  In her
installations, Zweig has used optics to create camera obscuras, video
projection devices, and miniature projected illusions.  She has also
created multi-channel video installations that have toured the US (museums
include: New Mexico Museum of Fine Art in Santa Fe, List Center for

Lunch with the Chairman: Why was Richard Perle meeting with Adnan
Khashoggi?
Seymour m. Hersh
In the 1970s, the Saudi-born businessman Khashoggi brokered billions of
dollars in arms and aircraft sales for the Saudi royal family. During
the Regan Administration, Khashoggi was a middleman in the Iran-Contra
scandal. Perle, until recently, chairman of the US Defense Policy Board
is one of the most outspoken and influential American advocates of war
with Iraq. So just why were these two 'having lunch' in Marseilles and
what has it to do with the venture capital company Trireme?

Year Zero One presents: the Splash Page Project
July 1 - September 1 2003 : Sister Valérie of the Internet

We are pleased to present two online performances, and a web project by
Valérie Lamontagne entitled Sister Valérie of the Internet.
Valérie's work gravitates around performance and related elements
(documentation, costumes, installation), which play with cultural
clichés and the idea of kitsch. Integrating performance and Web,
Sister Valérie of the Internet was developed at La Chambre Blanche, and
explores the rich history of Catholicism in Québec. During the
performances, participants will witness Sister Valérie praying online
and will be able to interact directly with her by confessing their sins,
praying with her, and asking her for guidance. At all other
times the online confessional will remain active to receive your sins!

You may view the performances and the documentation at
http://www.year01.com

Performance Schedule:

- -> Friday July 25: 1 - 2 PM, Eastern Standard Time
- -> Friday August 15: 1 - 2 PM, Eastern Standard Time

Time Zone Conversion: http://www.timezoneconverter.com

Year Zero One has offered its splash page as an exhibition space for
artists that will operate on a bimonthly basis. A selection of
Canadian and international net.artists have been invited to show
their work in this forum. The Splash Page Project launched on Feb. 1,
2002 with a piece by net.artist Mouchette. The Project is curated by
Michelle Kasprzak. If you have a proposal for this space, please

 Call for Papers: 'joke' - edited by Paul Denvir & E. Sean Rintel

It has been argued that jokes produce arousal in social beings because they
represent a rupture in, or a temporary subversion of, the routine character
of social life. Laughter, it is further argued, is a spontaneous
physiological response to the violation of deeply embedded expectations
about 'what kind of thing should be happening here.' If this is true, then
we may further argue that an examination of jokes, as apparent breaches of
a known-in-common social order, can tell us much about that very social
order. If we examine jokes, will we find that there is always some kind of
cultural expectation being poked and prodded?  And why should we enjoy this
so much? Perhaps jokes provide us with morally, politically, or
interactionally safe ways to express our relationship with the restrictions
that any kind of order - even the order we voluntarily produce and
reproduce - will inexorably impose?

We may also wonder what it is that social beings actually and practically
do with jokes. Whatever jokes may 'mean' in the philosophical sense, it is
hard to ignore the fact that jokes, whether in everyday social life, in
films, or on stage at the Improv, are produced in situ by social actors in
particular times and places for the consumption of other social actors in
particular times and places. We need to know more about what jokes do for
tellers and recipients as they jointly produce an intelligible social
order. Contributors are invited to discuss potential contributions with
either editor via the issue's email address and encouraged to submit well
in advance of the due date.

M/C Journal was founded (as "M/C - A Journal of Media and Culture") in 1998
as a place of public intellectualism analysing and critiquing the meeting
of media and culture. Contributors are directed to past issues of M/C

For Immediate Release:

306090 06>
SHIFTING INFRASTRUCTURES is accepting submissions for publication.

www.306090.org/30609006.htm


Call for works:

Our territorial and occupational processes are increasingly negotiated
through mobile communication methods and information technologies. Systems
of communication, data and material distribution (newscasts, fashion
trends, freight shipping, peer-to-peer file sharing software) create their
own unique infrastructures and inform existing exchange structures.
Newscasts, for example, require and affect events reported as well as the
physical hardware and transmission channels through which they broadcast.

Thresholds, transitions and discontinuities embedded in this dynamic of
infrastructural exchange suggest new (participatory or empirical)
processes to strategically discharge immanent manifestations of matter
and information.

306090 06>SHIFTING INFRASTRUCTURES will examine the current technological
infiltration into civic and social realms, where physical and cultural
infrastructures across diverse spatial and temporal scales are redefining
themselves as shifting, modulating entities via the use of new
technologies.


Submissions are due 30 November 2003.


Emergent Voices: 306090 Publishes politically charged articles and
projects that defy contemporary norms. We encourage work of a
controversial nature which challenges the academic, cultural and
professional institution of architecture. 306090 is dedicated to
representing the work of students young professionals in architecture
and design.

Fibreculture:::Meeting:::Brisbane_2003::

July 11, 12, 13th:::Brisbane::Powerhouse

:: fibreculture :: in association with critical new media studies sections
in universities across Brisbane, invites you to a meeting in July 2003 on
theory, policy, practice, and education in New Media and the Internet. The
meeting, :: fibrepower :: Currents in Australian Internet Research and
Culture will bring together practitioners in the academy and industry from
around Australia and New Zealand to participate in critically informed
debates about new media and its cultures. It follows the ANZCA03
conference (see http://www.bgsb.qut.edu.au/conferences/ANZCA03/index.html
- 9-11 July at QUT Gardens Point Campus, Brisbane).


:: Theme of the 2003 Fibreculture Meeting :: fibrepower ::

In academic and popular discourses, new media, the Internet, and 'virtual
reality' are often described as just this - a 'virtual' reality, an Other,
a 'cyberspace' which is somehow disconnected from the 'real' and secondary
to 'life' experiences and issues. It is rarely accepted in the dominant
Internet discourses of commercial and social culture that the truth is
vastly different. New media and networked technologies currently pervade
our lives and connect us ever more closely and solidly as citizens of
networked society.

If information and knowledge, in the new economy, are 'power', then the
copper, optical, or wireless fibres spanning the networks are conduits for
this power; they are full of power, and powerful. Their daily influence
and the network's influence on human society is real and tangible.
::fibreculture:: wants to address this continued insistence on
conceptualising networked life and Internet cultures as a separate,
second- rate or exotic reality, a dichotomy which obscures fact and
prevents any in-depth engagement with and critique of the power of 'fibre'
over and in our everyday lives.

Set in a literal and figurative locus of power from the previous,
industrial, era, the :: fibrepower :: meeting will engage with a range of
themes that disclose the unseen power of fibre-culture in the
informational age. Outcomes of this event will include a high profile
public forum, an online publication of refereed

PRESS RELEASE

Mediamatic Workshop on Interactive Narration
Turin, Italy 5-9 July 2003

In co-operation with Documentary in Europe, Turin, Italy, Mediamatic 
organises a special workshop for documentary filmmakers about new 
ways of storytelling that are possible with the use of new media.

In this very intensive 5-day workshop up to 16 international 
documentary film makers study the particular qualities of non-linear 
ways of storytelling and build their own interactive narrative. The 
participants use the latest version of the elegant and easy-to-use 
Korsakow System, developed at the University of the Arts (UdK) in 
Berlin. Participants need no advance technical knowledge of new media.

Interactive narration appears especially relevant for documentary 
film makers because of several reasons: the natural possibility to 
offer different perspectives on the same themes or issues parallel to 
each other, but also the possibility to allow the viewer to enter an 
actual discussion with the perspectives of the author. From these 
angles the key issue of interactive narration will be studied: the 
integration of the users' choices in the meaning of the work.
The video material for this workshop will be collected by Mediamatic 
in co-operation with Documentary in Europe. Participants can add 
their own material to a limited extent.

As practical research tool, the participants will use the Korsakow 
System developed at the University of the Arts (UdK) in Berlin. The 
Korsakow System consists of an easy-to-use-editing environment for 
non-linear narratives and an elegant presentation tool for 
interactive film and audio projects. The Korsakow System works with a 
simple but very effective database structure that allows the author 
to add, withdraw and rearrange his material in a very efficient way.
More information on the Korsakow System can be found at www.korsakow.com

The workshop will be supervised by Mediamatic in co-operation with 
the UdK. Coaches are:
Florian Thalhofer, artist and maker of the interactive documentary 
The Korsakow Syndrome, original builder of the Korsakow System. 
Thalhofer currently works at the UdK in Berlin, where he further 
develops the Korsakow System.
Klaas Kuitenbrouwer, organizer and coach of the Mediamatic workshops 
Designing Behavior. Klaas Kuitenbrouwer has coached numerous 
workshops on interactive media, and lectures on new media and 
interactive narratives on Art Academies and Universities.
Prof. Willem Velthoven, professor in Monomedia at the UdK and 
chairman of Mediamatic foundation.
Monika Halkort, TV and multimedia producer and lecturer on new media.

Students of the UdK that are experienced users of the Korsakow System 
further assist the participants during the workshop. They will act as 
personal assistants to the participants, in all aspects of realising 
their projects.

Dates: 5 - 9 July, 2003 - Course hours: 9.30 - 16.00 every day.
10 July: the final presentation of the results will be integrated in 
the programme of Documentary in Europe 2003 workshop

Participation fee: 350 euros (it includes tuition, use of technical 
equipment, 5 lunches and registration for the Documentary in Europe 
Workshop (9 - 12 July). We are defining further discounts on the 
special prizes reserved to our participants.

Participants: 16 participants with proven track record in 
documentary-making. Selection will be based on cv and filmography

(Via PR Watch) A new project by the Center for Public Integrity takes a
close look at the telecommunications industry and its regulatory body, the
Federal Communications Commission. Visitors to OpenAirWaves.org will find
the CPI's "first-of-its-kind, 65,000 record, searchable database containing
ownership information on virtually every radio station, television station,
cable television system and telephone company in America." CPI also looked
at FCC travel records. They report that the FCC commissioners "have been

eight years, most of it from the telecommunications and broadcast in

LEONARDO CO-SPONSORS COMPOSING MESSAGES TO THE COSMOS: PARIS WORKSHOP

A group of twenty artists, scientists, and scholars from the humanities will
gather in Paris, March 23 and 24 (Sunday and Monday), to understand how we
might communicate the idea of altruism to any intelligent civilizations that
could be circling other stars.

The workshop‹³Encoding Altruism: The Art and Science of Interstellar Message
Composition²‹will focus on messages that could be transmitted by radio waves
or laser pulses. These communication techniques reflect the methods used in
the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI), including the world's
most comprehensive search, Project Phoenix, being conducted by the SETI
Institute.

³As SETI programs become increasingly powerful, we need to think seriously
about what to do if we succeed. Should we reply? If so, what should we say?²
asked chair of the workshop, Dr. Douglas Vakoch. ³How could we convey
concepts as seemingly abstract as altruism or our sense of beauty?²

Participants from a dozen countries will ponder these questions and other
topics, including - Creating interactive interstellar messages. - Preparing
for interstellar contact by studying animal communication. - Explaining the
logic of altruism. - Conveying religious views of altruism through
artificial languages. - Composing interstellar "music" inspired by the
structure of DNA.

More information including complete biographies and abstracts is available
online at http://publish.seti.org/art_science/2003/

The workshop is being sponsored by the SETI Institute; Leonardo/OLATS
(Leonardo Observatory for the Arts and TechnoSciences); the John Templeton
Foundation; the International Society for the Arts, Sciences and Technology
(ISAST); and the International Academy of Astronautics (IAA) Permanent SETI
Study Group.

NOTE TO EDITORS: Participation is by invitation only. Interested journalists
should contact workshop chair Douglas Vakoch ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), cell 06 32

> 
> An Introduction to the Philosophy of Gilles Deleuze
> Edited by Jean Khalfa
> 
> Gilles Deleuze has been labelled as the "post-x" thinker: post-structuralist, 
> post-modern, post-spinozist, post-nietzschean, and even post-utopian. An 
> Introduction to the Philosophy of Gilles Deleuze explodes such categorizations and 
> places Deleuze and Deleuzian method at the heart of contemporary thought
> 
> Whether analysing the work of key philosophers, or key concepts such as time, 
> difference and subjectivity, or the nature of creation (film, painting, literature), 
> Deleuze's concern is always the same. From under the layers of history, criticism 
> and interpretation, he aims to reveal the problem itself in its own life, as it 
> develops in a particular thought or activity. 
> 
> This book focuses on the key processes and concepts essential to the understanding 
> of the totality of the work, setting these within their intellectual background and 
> context. The book will be welcomed by students across the Humanities and Social 
> Sciences as a guide to the work of this most vital and contemporary of theorists. 
> 
> Contributors include: Giorgio Agamben, Mary Bryden, Gilles Deleuze, Jean Khalfa,

Nettimers,

I received this and I thought that it is a good idea to take on board.

Two and a half years ago -this is when the United States decided to invade
Afganistan - I realised that there is absolutely no way that this decision
could be reversed; even if one billion citizens demonstrated against it all
over the world.

This was the first time that I realised how insignificant my opinion and my
actual life were, not only for the global and national 'society' to which I
belong, but also for my own life and my immediate environment. I realised
that even if I actually agreed with the punishment of those responsible, I
still could not protect myself and my immediate environment from the side
effects of such a war. Side effects upon the air that I inhale and the
climatic pollution due to bombing. Side effects due to the permanent
disastrous effects to the planet itself and -last but not least- actual
damage in my general welfare.

However, there is a minimum personal free choice that I did have!
This was to refuse to sponsor -or simply pay- those who I considered to be
really responsible for all this. In a very indirect and minimum way! I
therefore refused to consume any North American products, or even products
which were related to American companies. I didn't consider this personal
stance as the beginning of a new crusade. It could potentially grow to
become one. But until that moment in time, I have been getting the personal
satisfaction that my opposition had also a practical meaning.

Now, once again, humanity is watching a similar 'play' which takes place
despite the emense public opposition. I invite everyone to start together a
minimun personal campaign that is not only a message to those who are about
to start this new war. Furthermore, it is a campaign which offers the
satisfaction of doing something practical about it! Between the 20th and the
30th of March lets not consume ANY American products. The maximun that could
be gained out of such an effort is that at least 10 million
people worldwide can deprive the American economy of $2,5 for 10 consecutive
days. (This adds up to $250.000.000 -assuming that this is how much a packet
of American cig

Subject: Re: Email on your BoycottDelta ?

In response to Delta Air Line's utter lack of concern with the privacy of
their customers demonstrated by their participation in a test of the CAPPS
II system, a Delta disinvestment campaign has been launched at:

http://www.boycottdelta.org .

The idea of citizens having to undergo a background investigation that
includes personal banking information and a credit check simply to travel in
his or her own country is invasive and un-American.  The CAPPS II system
goes far beyond what any thinking citizen of this country should consider
reasonable.

If enough people refuse to fly Delta, then it is likely that other airlines
will refuse to implement this sadly misguided and anti-democratic system.
The boycott will remain in full effect until Delta Air Lines publicly
withdraws from any involvement with the testing of CAPPS II.

Hi there ..

I was doing some maintenance, like installing the new version of sendmail
which fixed a major security issue that was just announced, when I sort 
of arbitrarily decided to clean out the list of bogus/dead and unused

Currently no one is on the list .. so you aren't missing out on any

VIRTUAL SIT-IN OF DOW "GREENWASH" SITE, ALL THIS WEEK:
http://www.dowethics.com/bhopal.com/

Action Ends on March 17th, 2003

Dow Chemical is going to court this week in India. Not as the defendants
for their ongoing responsibility for the Bhopal disaster, but as the
plaintiffs: Dow is suing the SURVIVORS of the disaster for protesting at a
Dow plant, and--we're not making this up--they're demanding US$10,000 from
them... about 10 years of wages at local rates.

But pesky internet activists are showing Dow there is no escape, with a
virtual sit-in of Dow's internet Greenwash headquarters, Bhopal.com
(http://www.dowethics.com/bhopal.com/).

Dow's unapologetic website, which includes an "incident review," denies
that Dow purchased any liabil

Darij Kreuh and Davide Grassi : »Brainscore« [2000]
Interactive 3D Performance[in the context of the exhibition FUTURE
CINEMA] 

Sat-Sun, February 22 & 23, 2003
ZKM-Media Theater, 5 pm | admission free 

The Brainscore project by media artists Darij Kreuh and Davide Grassi
deals with the research of communication patterns and the interface
enabling the human body and the global information space to connect. It
is a performance for two operators, in which incorporeal communication
is used as the starting point for creating a controlled communication
system. The system is based on the use of brain waves and eye movement
for performing basic commands while defining a new digital discourse in
virtual space without using the traditional and generally established
ways of communication [thus, socially recognized and conventional
communication codes are abandoned – speech, body gestures etc.].

Randall Packer
"10,000 Acts of Artistic Mediation"
Tuesday, February 11th, 6pm @ EDA (104 North Kinross)
University of California, Los Angeles

presented by the
UCLA Department of Design | Media Arts
(310) 825-9007

Randall M. Packer, Secretary of the US Department of Art & Technology 
in Washington, DC, will announce a new campaign, "10,000 Acts of 
Artistic Mediation," intended to mobilize artistic forces across the 
nation in anticipation of the National Election in 2004. The 
Secretary will also discuss the recent activation of a new 
artist-driven political party, the Experimental Party, the "party of 
experimentation," in the Department's effort to bring the artists' 
message to center stage of the political process. The Experimental 
Party intends to recruit, support, and coordinate viable artists to 
celebrate the universal spirit of collective expression, to seek 
volunteers to help speak oracular truths and the most radically 
liberating critique of reason, and to engage students in acts of 
appropriation through art and polemic, manifesto and demonstration, 
love and politics.

Calling him "a man of great integrity, a man of great judgment and a 
man who knows the arts," President George W. Bush announced his 
decision to nominate Randall M. Packer to serve as Secretary of the 
United States Department of Art and Technology on November 12, 2001. 
Upon confirmation by the Senate, Packer pledged to renew the war on 
cultural poverty, reduce the incidence of a one-way exchange of 
information between an active agent and a passive recipient, and 
combat discrimination so no American feels outside the field of 
aesthetic inquiry of the contemporary media arts.

**

The Experimental Party
http://www.experimentalparty.org

The Experimental Party - the "party of experimentation" -  is an 
artist-based political party that has been formed to activate 
citizens across the country in an effort to bring the artists' 
message to center stage of the political process. This is a political 
awakening, 'representation through virtualization' is the major 
political thrust of the Experimental Party, it is the driving force.

7th festival garage in August 2003 in Stralsund / Germany

n o  c o n c e p t  -  a description of conditions
- -


Everything is possible, everything is open, everything can be done, nothing
is clearly defined.

With the apparently permanent expansion of the individual room for action
different modes of behaviour develop in dealing with the existing social and
cultural structures.

Pragmatism on one side, purposeful acting, reduced to the necessary and
practically useful, a striving for order and security. Inability to act on
the other side, resulting from a growing feeling of blurredness, of
insecurity and disorientation.

Social vacuum? Malfunction of the system? "...instability as the normal
state?" Trial and Error as the future strategy? Insecurity as a creative
force, accident as a generative mechanism? What is normality, what is
defined as normal?

garage 03 is searching for artists' positions, comments and strategies on
the topic insecurity and disorientation. Send us your proposals for
presentations, installations, performances, projects, papers, and workshops.
It is possible to submit already realised projects or concepts for projects,
which are to be developed for the festival topic and/or to be realised
during the festival.

(1) Out of Tokyo

Vol. 55: The Power of Location part 4
by Ozaki Tetsuya

The last weekend was one with a very positive surprise for me.
Following an invitation by email from Higashiizumi Ichiro, I went
to attend the opening party of an event titled "Taping." Since
illustrator Ito Keiji, design unit Namaiki and others were among
the participants I had no doubt it would be an interesting event,
but I ended up being struck with admiration not only of the event
itself but also of the wonderful space it took place in. The venue,
"Tsukiji Manson," is an alternative space in Higashi Kanda. It's a
rather inconveniently located place in 7-8 minutes walking distance
from Akihabara. To call it a "typical hollow area in the middle of
the city" would actually come even closer than just "inconvenient"...

(2) Event Pick of the Week
===

Hot Korean Film Festival

Even if you're one of those who feel like they've had enough of
Korean movies recently, with a flood of unique films in the program
this festival is one you just have to endure. Recommended also to
advanced fans with a general knowledge of the genre, the festival
offers plenty of 'spicy' delicacies in accordance to its title.
Especially the set of films by Hong Sang Soo including "The Day a
Pig Fell Into the Well," "The Power of Kangwon Province," "Virgin
Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors" and "Turning Gate" is a section all
art film and repertory cinema aficionados should check out. Go and
judge by yourself if what you see tastes hot or rather sweet. Since
this is an event that is organized by film distributors in order to
introduce (and sell) their items, another point of concern is the
number of titles that change hands here.

News Release

The Big Down:
Technologies Converging at the Nano-scale

The ETC Group (formerly known as RAFI) today announces the publication of
The Big Down: Atomtech - Technologies Converging at the Nano-scale, the
first comprehensive and critical analysis of nanotechnology for civil
society and policymakers. The 80-page report seeks to widen civil society's
and policymakers' focus beyond biotech and genetically engineered crops, and
to catalyze widespread public debate on the societal impacts of
nanotechnology.

"The world's most powerful emerging technology is developing in an
almost-total political and regulatory vacuum," says Pat Mooney, Executive
Director of ETC Group. "Public and private research at the nano-scale is
evolving beneath the radar screen of civil society and government
regulators." Because nano-scale technologies can be applied to virtually
every industrial sector, explains ETC Group, no regulatory body is taking
the lead. And because many of its products are nano-sized versions of
conventional compounds, regulatory scrutiny has been deemed unnecessary.

Atomtechnology is well on its way to creating an economic and social
revolution expected to be worth US$1 trillion by 2015. Virtually all sectors
of the economy will be affected. The Big Down addresses the hard questions:
Who will control nanotechnology? Who will determine the research agenda and
who will benefit from nano-scale technologies? How can governments and civil
society begin to address the potential socio-economic, environmental and
health impacts of nanotechnology without discouraging the safe exploration
of its beneficial possibilities?

The Geopolitics of Electronic Messaging

Editors:  Mary Griffiths and Susan Yell
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Monash University, Gippsland Campus

"The Geopolitics of e-Messaging" invites theoretically informed 
discussions of the social and political outcomes of P2P electronic 
communications, and case studies of the dynamics of governing new 
publics and the spaces of private communication.

Email, webmail, voicemail, text messaging, ICQ, pxt, chat forums, 
digital television messaging, discussion boards, and now, wireless 
communications form distinctive protocols, and different capacities 
in users. New geographies of space and politics are made possible. 
But, not all that results from the increase in the kind and volume of 
communication is beneficial. The pressure on many users is to be 
always available and immediately responsive. Organisational 
communications may improve but increased surveillance is the 
corollary. At home and work, time is needed to manage "legitimate" 
electronic messages and users also deal with unsolicited spam, and 
with scams, and viruses. Many find themselves, either willingly or 
involuntarily, in new and compelling sets of relations with others. 
New etiquettes of interaction are emerging.

The "free" space of limitless communication shows signs of shrinking 
back to more private and customised domains. For example, online 
communities now use gating technologies to secure themselves from all 
but identifiable messages. Individuals are increasingly using 
filters, junk folders and different accounts for protection of 
privacy.

What is being gained or lost by these developments? Is an organised 
retreat from the exigencies of the most demanding and clamorous 
aspects of e-messaging starting? Can the new gated communities be 
thought of as publics? Do they provide evidence of undemocratic 
tendencies? What can be produced by the crossing of traditional 
communicative borders? What are the skills, capacities and literacies 
which are being formed by different messaging technologies? What 
counts as "nuisance mail" and how is it being dealt with? How are 
subjectivities being constructed and governed by compulsory 
participation in online work and educational communities? How are 
nations, communities, institutions, businesses and individuals 
managing the virtual spaces of electronic messaging across physical 
frontiers? Which t

 Call for Papers: 'share'


As we move into the information age, the network society, some see us also
as turning into a culture of collectors, a society of sharers. Electronic
information, especially once it is networked, is easy to copy, simple to
share, and seems to invite collaborative engagement; this leads to the
emergence of filesharing services and open source software development.
Financially, ever more people are hoping to share in the commercial
successes of the listed companies whose stocks they own, but all too often
find themselves sharing predominantly their losses.

On a wider and more fundamental level, offline, public, physical resources
also need to be shared more effectively: as we exploit our reserves of
natural fuels and foods more rapidly than we can replenish them, we attempt
to find ways to achieve sustainability. And on the sociopolitical level,
too, moves are underway to share the load of governance, administration,
and jurisdiction through shared transnational organisations ranging from
the UN to the International Court of Justice.

What is also becoming obvious, however, is that some are better at
sharing than others. Along with the invitation to share more effectively
comes the reflex to hold on to one's own property even more stubbornly.
Whole industries are now devoted to the development of patents for
inventions that are yet to be made, in order to extract immense fees from
anyone wanting to share these ideas; countries like Australia and the US
have atrocious records when it comes to fairly sharing and responsibly
sustaining the world's natural resources; and in the networked
environment, intellectual property has now assumed almost mythical status -
central to one's success, but difficult to grasp, and almost impossible to
protect. Is sharing the

Description. "Expand the Network." This heavily graphic issue is,
typically, built around multiple parallel series of visual works, an array
of conceptual threads woven together. Further, the issue has several
featured series, one being a sequence of xerographic collages with text
entitled "Things" by Stephen-Paul Martin; another, a one-per-page list of
Jenny Holzer-inspired slogans by Luke McGuff running under the issue,
appearing in each and every footer. Other remarkable graphic works are
supplied by John Stickney, whose work has been coming into its own in
recent issues (retrospectively speaking), and painter John Rininger,
always able, it seems, of offering something of note; and David Tiffen's
pair of images, seeming vaguely Situationist-inspired to today's eyes.
Pandora's Mailbox also supplies a series of works, a small booklet run in
unabridged sequence and offered up among the other works on these pages.
Italian artist Serse Luigetti continues offering his rectilinear "stamp
collection"-like pages of themed graphics, and mailartist Dazar also
delivers a pithy series of small graphics, seen here for the first time in
their original colors.

Contributors include. Scott Dohring, Ll. Dunn, Luke McGuff, Tom Hibbard,
Pandora's Mailbox, John Stickney, Geof Huth, Mark Pawson, Pascal Uni,
Serse Luigetti, David Tiffen, Thomas Wiloch, John Kelly, Eric Belgum,
Joseph A. Uphoff, Jr., Gareth Branwyn, Christopher Erin, Stephen-Paul
Martin, Crag Hill, Dazar, Miekal And, Mark Rose, Brad Goins, Paul Weinman,
Tim Coats, Bob Grumman, John Rininger, Arturo Giuseppe Fallico, Eric
Heilmann, Thom Metzger, The Tape-beatles

Project Overview: The Photostatic Retrograde Archive serves as an
electronic repository for a complete collection of PhotoStatic Magazine,
PhonoStatic Cassettes, Retrofuturism, and Psrf, (as well as related
titles). Issues are posted as PDF files, at more or less regular
intervals, in reverse chronological order to form a chronological mirror
image of the original series. When the first issue, dating from 1983, is
finally posted in several year's time, then this electronic archive will
be complete.

Subject: A new server list

Please, a new interactive list openning every langue:
 
THEMATIC & ADMINISTRATION


Dear friends of http://www.criticalsecret.com and of
http://www.leavingfrankenstein.com/.


 At the time of New Year 2003 we create a server-list on < free.fr >.

This server of election does not propose online archive of the messages, you
will thus have to save them by your own means those which will interest you.

 Why we experienced a list, yet another ?

Following requests repeated for one year, then with recommendations of
corresponding foreigners lately, we have decided to launch it for the
following reasons: 

1. our singular ideas regarding emergence, generally don't match the topics
of the other lists;

2. cultural lists and artistic lists do not accept any more the
communication of virtual events after various abuses.

However we owe to that virtual space of the internet, our singular existence
as editors and producers, that supports the development of our
demonstrations offline...

We make a point of defending the free principle of publication and creation
in field of the hypermedia and consequently the communication of its events.

Such is the double object of our list, based on the principle of the
critical alterity
(non-Community and thema-anachronistic like actual).

 Here are some topics and minimal rules to make the discussion more
interactive and more fluid:

This list, both of information and thinking, of sociocultural visions or
engagements of critical universes rather that opinions, includes the
political and economic universes.

It is opened in to criticism and to self-criticism, with the aim of ironic
joyful prospective, researches, performances, events, including the most
political. 

Nevertheless, no insult neither obscenity is authorised regarding both
internal listers and external people, neither on the list nor under the
links which are published there.

Within the same framework, the list would not put up with repetitive
aggressions which could take the aspect of harassing, as well with regard to
the ones as with that of the others

 Frequency of the messages and Spam:

to limit the abuses in a number of posts, a maximum of emission of two mails
by lister, and per day is authorised, except concerning basic discussions on
fertile subjects.

Beyond two posts or of a demonstration of impatience of one or two fellow
candidates, the exchanges in progress will have to continue within the
framework of private mails.

The referential links or quotations inside the development of the contents
of the messages will be expressed without limitation of their frequency nor
of their number. 

On the other hand, the promotional or advertising communication of sites or
pages being able to be associated to Spam will take place only one time per
week for each lister. These mails will have to mention :  in the
title.

 Moderation: 

The moderation will be shared between five persons considering their
disciplinary fields included musics and sciences, but all practise the same
charter. Their signs and emails: Orphée Delarue <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,
Adrien Rocant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Horace Bellecourt
<[EMAIL PROTECTED], Pétrone Guillot <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Oui de
Cyrto.

Please, before "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", protest should sent to

of software and human interaction. Several experts will be brought in from 
the commercial software field for Mac and Windows as well as from the field 
of open source and free software. Among the software facilitated for this 
workshop are Max-MSp, Jitter, V2_Jam, PD, Blender, Cyclops, BigEye, 
gstreamer, Nato, MoB, FreeJ and Touch 101.

The participants and the workshop leaders will work together to realize 
performances or media jam sessions. The end result of the workshop will be 
presented in an informal media concert open to the audience of the Dutch 
Electronic Art Festival 2003 (DEAF03).

Workshop leaders: Amy Franceschini (USA) and Guy van Belle (B).

Participants are encouraged to bring their own laptop and software.

The Politics of Code:
Shaping the Future of the Next Internet
Thursday, 6th February 2003
A one day public conference organised by the Programme in Comparative Media
Law and Policy, and the Oxford Internet Institute, University of Oxford

The Internet is at a crossroads, critical choices will be made in the coming
months about the Internet's architecture that will shape the Internet for
years to come.

PCMLP and the OII are therefore convening a conference in Oxford to not only
identify what those critical choices are, and to discuss in an innovative
cross-disciplinary set-up of practitioners and academics how we can shape
the future of the next Internet.

High profile speakers - among them Prof. Larry Lessig, renowned thinker on
Cyberlaw and Esther Dyson, celebrated digerati and founding chairman of
ICANN - will discuss the key choices that need to be made on privacy,
security, access, openness and control in the design of Internet technology
and Internet Governance.

SEAFair 2002
Skopje Electronic Arts Fair

Cultural Transformation
Consciousness and New Technologies

14 December 2002 - 13 January 2003


Location: Skopje Museum of Contemporary Arts - MoCA

Organizer: Contemporary Art Center Skopje

Curator: Melentie PANDILOVSKI


Supported by: Foundation Open Society Institute Macedonia, PROHELVETIA
Arts Council of Switzerland, Goethe Institute Belgrade

The project SEAFair 2002 Cultural Transformation - Consciousness and New
Technologies is envisioned to bring together culture theoreticians,
practitioners of new media, philosophers, consciousness experts,
neuroscientists, artists and sociologists, in a constructive dialogue. We
expect the project to produce an open atmosphere for critical discourse,
and an on-going debate regarding the raised issues. The idea of this sixth
edition of SEAFair is to investigate the cultural transformation in the
beginning of the 21st century by critically examining in an overall
platform the evolution of consciousness, society, networks, and new media.
The study of consciousness is now considered to be one of the top themes
in artistic and cultural circles especially because current research of
broad fields in a cultural and a social sense may assist us in the
visualizing of our future.

The main theme of the Symposium will be CULTURE AND CONSCIOUSNESS. Themes
such as the influence of techno-scientific change upon society, the study
of consciousness, the study of the mind, etc. will be examined.

Subject: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Homage_to_Felix_Gonzalez-Torres?=



Title: "Homage to Felix Gonzalez-Torres"

This project is born as a homage to Felix Gonzalez-Torres, a marvelous
intimist artist. This re-creates one of his most well known projects, the
photograph of his bed exhibited to the pedestrians on the streets of New
York City, a project organized by Anne Unland in collaboration with MoMa,
from May 16th to June 30th of 1992. It is my intention to take it as a
starting point and re-create it on the world wide web, hoping to involve
other persons and render it all as a work in progress. Such action would
render homage to an artist I love, re-evaluate the role of the web which,
the more it becomes real space that documents and renders live reality
itself, the further it creates a dialogue between private and public
space.

The artistic work will take as its starting point photographs contributed
by the contestants which will be posted on the web for which, from
12/16/02 to 12/20/02, I have photographed my bedroom in the morning and
have also inserted other photos taken from other public sites (see the
list of sites below). I propose that all chance visitors send me photos of
their in-the-morning beds so I can publish them starting on 12/20/02 at
the appropriate websites.

All the material will then be gathered on a suitable website.

The project will be developed at these websites:

http://digilander.libero.it/omaggioGFT
www.exibitart.com (forum)
www.undo.net (Carta Bianca)

Note to the project participants: The photos should not be larger than 50
kb or have contents that might be offensive to public morality.
Participation in the project will be deemed as your acceptance for the
future use of your submitted photos and for their use on other sites and
for possible future showings on public sites. Further, your participation
will be taken as your authorization for future photographic reproduction
and/or use in other presentations by the artist, Dominco Olivero, for
commercial or advertising materi ls. he photographs will be placed on the
site with the name of the person who sent them; if you wish another form
of acknowledgement please specify in your e-mail.  (traduction by William)

Green Pepper Magazine Online Now and Out Soon!

- - - - Autumn 2002 edition: “BORDERS” - - - -

As soon as you ask anyone where they were born, where their parents were 
born, where their sister lives, where their partner is from (...) you will 
hear people’s history of migration and movement. Our own lives, our own 
histories are the histories of movement, globalisation and new beginnings, 
departures and arrivals. We wanted to draw the threads together to create a 
document which took us from this beginning, this ability to identify with 
movement, to question why, how and who’s movement is being controlled.

This edition of Green Pepper features discussion from a range of 
perspectives; examining the ways in which anti-trafficking legislation is 
used to control migration of women, a different view on bordercamps, 
globalisation, environment and migration, identity and borders. People from 
around the world have contributed analysis and reports to create a broad and 
engaging edition!

Check it out at:

Virtual Art: From Illusion to Immersion
A Lecture by Oliver Grau
Tuesday, December 10 7 pm
Tishman Auditorium, New School University
66 West 12th Street
live webcast @ http://netart-init.org, 7pm EST


In conjunction with the publication of Oliver Grau's Virtual Art: From 
Illusion to Immersion (forthcoming from The MIT Press), the author 
describes how virtual art fits into the history of art, and 
specifically artists'search for illusionary visual space, which can be 
traced back to antiquity. He describes the metamorphosis of the 
concepts of art and the image and relates those concepts to interactive 
art, interface design, agents, telepresence, and image evolution. He 
traces immersive cinema through Cinerama, Sensorama, Expanded Cinema,

VerdanaVirtual Art: From Illusion
to Immersion 

A Lecture by Oliver Grau 

Tuesday, December 10 7 pm 

Tishman Auditorium, New School University 

66 West 12th Street 

live webcast @ http://netart-init.org, 7pm EST 



In conjunction with the publication of Oliver Grau's Virtual Art: From
Illusion to Immersion (forthcoming from The MIT Press), the author
describes how virtual art fits into the history of art, and
specifically artists'search for illusionary visual space, which can be
traced back to antiquity. He describes the metamorphosis of the
concepts of art and the image and relates those concepts to
interactive art, interface design, agents, telepresence, and image
evolution. He traces immersive cinema through Cinerama, Sensorama,
Expanded Cinema, 3-D, Omnimax and IMAX, and the Head-Mounted Display
with its military origins. His analysis draws on the work of
contemporary artists and groups ART+COM, Maurice Benayoun, Charlotte
Davies, Monika Fleischmann, Ken Goldberg, Agnes Hegedues, Eduardo Kac,
Knowbotic Research, Laurent Mignonneau, Michael Naima

technologies, music, dance, consciousness research, holography, 
animation, genetics, sonic explorations, sensing systems and devices, 
social systems, complexity theory, and artificial intelligence.The 
programming of the general symposium is shaped by the submissions of 
each year and is meant to broaden the scope of disciplines or areas of 
research for those who attend. People who have attended the conference 
remark that although the individual topics at the conference are 
extremely interesting it is often the threads that are woven between the 
various presentations made by speakers from varied disciplines that make 
the conference a unique experience .  We strongly encourage interested 
applicants to submit proposals that are outside the topics mentioned 
above if they feel their proposal fits into the general mandate of the 
festival. Please visit the archives at:

Call for workshop participants to
RAM 2: A JOKER IN THE GLOBAL BUNKER*
Atelier Nord, Oslo, Norway, February 5th to 9th 2003

_


"While the hacker may be the Mole in the ranks of technocrats, and the 
politician the Loudspeaker, the artist in this context is the Joker. 
Subversive in such ways that both the notion of criminality, insanity 
and political resistance are avoided, and any disciplinary reactions 
from the authorities are obvious oppression. Skirmishing the borders, 
acting as both the decoy and the trespasser. And, still smiling, 
carefully moving the limitations of everyday life, opening the ways for 
practices far more powerful."

biomatic.org note on Global Bunker:
The term Global Bunker points at the situation where ownership is no 
longer held by local capitalists but by networks of omnipresent 
speculants, where the revolution in transport have made the sites of 
production more or less independent from local resources and local 
markets, when the collective sites of work are disintegrated and 
replaced with individual, home based workstations through the use of 
global virtual reality networks, and when all sites are carefully 
defined in terms of their socio-economic use.

Subject: [pivf.org] 2002 Palestine International Video Festival

Hello,

The "2002 Palestine International Video Festival" is a new video festival to
take place in the West Bank during the winter of 2002. The festival will
showcase an international collection of contemporary video art,
installations, and documentaries. During the festival, the works will be
installed in various independent galleries, screened on local television
stations, and made permanently available in a public archive at Birzeit
University.

The festival is an attempt to breach the cultural and intellectual isolation
of the Palestinian people brought about by the ongoing Israeli occupation of
the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Issues ranging from immigration and exile,
the practice of everyday life, and the aftermath of September 11th will be
explored by the festival's diverse participants. The festival was conceived
by Emily Jacir (UNDP/TOKTEN), and is co-organized by John Menick. It will
hopefully mark the beginning of an ongoing dialog between the international
cultural community and the residents of Palestine.

For more information please visit our website:

http://www.pivf.org/

All our best,
Emily Jacir and John Menick

Subject: Paul D. Miller remixes Marcel Duchamp at L.A. MOCA

Hey you all - I'm going to be in L.A. on Saturday 'cause I have a 
show opening at L.A. MOCA. It's a remix I did of Marcel Duchamp's 
infamous "Errata Musical" and "Sculpture Musical" works  - check it 
out! Think of it as downloadable mix sculpture based on sampling and 
sound. There'll be downloadable posters etc etc and screensavers 
starting next week. M.C. Duchamp as mixologist... as Dj... as 
starting point for some kind of new aesthetics of the found object as 
software/shareware.

There'll be "dub" and "hip-hop" versions of Duchamp's various spoken 
texts, each one mixable by the viewer.

THEATRICALITY

APT focuses on theatricality, not on theatre. On mediation, not onmedia.

APT sees theatricality as aprocess of mediation, as a tool.

APTwelcomes artists, theoreticians and projects from all artistic
disciplinesand all cultural roots to research this tool.

APT encourages applications from all over the world to share ideasand
practices in the field of theatricality.

APT is not interested in questioning theatre as an artisticdiscipline, for
this question tends to veil the simple fact that theatre iseverywhere: in
politics, in sports, entertainment and everyday-life.

In ourdaily encounters where the digital and analogue mingle, making
meaningrequires all our senses. Speaking and hearing are no longer able to
convey,grasp or explain our mediated world. Could theatricality be a tool
torespond to this mediated reality? In studying theatricality - therealm of
supersenses - we might find new matrixes to perceive the realitiesthat we
are all living in.

We are inviting you to come and reflect,research, re-evaluate, rethink and
reinvent process, place, production andperformance. The agenda is twofold:
concentrating both on the process ofdoing research on your work, and on
theatricality as a process of mediation for that work.

You are invited todevelop your individual project within this collective and
individualreflection about the what, how and why of theatricality. The aim
is not toget to a definition of what theatricality `really is`, but what it
can beto you.

We do not propagate an APT definition of 'theatricality' and wewill not let
the confined space of this flyer push forward some chosen few- at
http://www.popok.be (from 20 September onwards) we dip at random intothe
wealth of possible views. During our time together, we willtake concepts of
theatre and performances and their (sometimes hidden)presence in various
disciplines as a point of departure for discussingconcrete examples: the
projects proposed by each participant, completedwith
guests/projects/films/visits/texts & images provided by thetutors.







WHO?

APT offers you a meeting point with other young artistsfrom different
artistic disciplines (performance, music, architecture,visual arts, film,
video, theory) who have a hunch of what th

summary:
JavaMuseum is proud to give the JavaArtist of the Year Award in 2002 to one
single artist:
Calin Man from Arad/Romania,
an this outstanding net artist who combines artistic expression and
statements with substantial power, technological activity and excellence in
sustained work.

The show of
"Fundamental Patterns - Peripheral Basics"
is based on an online competition of the same name
and consists of three parts:

1. solo presentatation of Calin Man, winner of JavaArtist of the Year Award,
2. finalists of the competition
3. exhibition out of concurrence, entitled "MANDALA"
refering to the subject of the show by students of the
University of the Philippines under the supervision of Fatima Lasay.



introduction:
The second year's program of JavaMuseum, eg "2nd of Java series"
has a special subject during one running year (Spring 2002-Spring 2003),
entitled:
"Fundamental Patterns - Peripheral Basics".
After the first event in July, entitled "Actual Positions of Italian
Netart",
the main show of of the year in the framework of "2nd of Java series"
represents
"Fundamental Patterns - Peripheral Basics"
discussing and confronting artistic and philosophical positions of
Western and Eastern culture:

What are the fundamental patterns of contemporary living and art,
what kind of peripheral basics are defining them?
What are the fundamental patterns of the virtual
environment of Internet? Mere simulation?
Or rather something profoundly new?
In which way changed patterns and the peripheral
basics from physical to virtual level?
How do they influence sensual and intellectual perception ?

The special interactive exhibition interface created by
Agricola de Cologne, media artist operating from Cologne/Germany
and curator of this show
takes all the aspects and composes them to a kind of Western "mandala",
interlinking the material and spiritual, a way which is taken by the
competition finalists in different individual ways:
The answers are not clear yet as the way is the goal.
