Transitio_MX 03: Autonomies of Disagreement New Media Art and Video International Festival OPEN CALL In order to support, acknowledge, and promote current research and production in new media art, Consejo Nacional para la Cultura y las Artes through its Centro Multimedia of the Centro Nacional de las Artes calls the local and international artistic community to the Third New Media and Art Contest which will take place in the New Media and Art Video International Festival. The contest is open to any individual, group and association engaged in the production of artwork created with new media technologies, including video art, sound art, net-art, installation, composition, performance and related disciplines. The Third New Media and Art Contest, Autonomies of Disagreement, provides a setting of located practices, where disagreement allows for dialogue and exchange in the realms of local and international new media art. This international contest is concerned with acknowledging those distinct technological displacements and art’s current status, bearing a particular emphasis on those artworks whose technological innovations and contributions are supported by means that can be used for creation, stressing above all a critical perspective. #1 Residual topography This category seeks to reveal the discourses pronounced by means of obsolete technology (electronic and digital) and those articulated when contrasting local technologies with high technology appropriations. It is open for installation; interactive, immersed or sound environments; robotic art; hardware hacking; circuit bending; physical computing; site intervention; or any other related disciplines. A single prize will be awarded worth $50,000 (Fifty thousand Mexican pesos). The Jury will decide the honorable mentions granted. #2 Unusual displacements: the scope of the moving images In order to analyze the moving images technological reconfigurations (and/or its possibilities) and consider its unusual territories, t his category is intended to welcome artworks that use moving images in any of its modalities, be it lineal presentation or interaction: single channel video, 16mm, live cinema, Vj´s, videogame, mobile video, interactive animation, augmented reality, or any other related disciplines. A single prize will be awarded worth $50,000 (Fifty thousand Mexican pesos). The Jury will decide the honorable mentions granted. #3Dissident territories: the emergence of technology In order to explore technological developments that differ from industrial ones, this category looks for research and technology development projects who seek for innovations in the use of digital tools and electronic circuits with expressive and experimental means: free hardware and software, bioethical technology, gadget development, applications, devices or any other related disciplines. A single prize will be awarded worth $50,000 (Fifty thousand Mexican pesos). The Jury will decide the honorable mentions granted. #4 Concealed order: viral construction of web contents This category will welcome those works whose poetics distinguish or surpass conceptions regarding mobile interfaces and information networks. Those that bear important contributions on distribution, expression and collaboration will be more privileged: internet, bluetooth, GPS, radiofrequency, mobile telephony, infrareds or any other related disciplines. A single prize will be awarded worth $35,000 (Thirty five thousand Mexican pesos). The Jury will decide the honorable mentions granted.

[NetBehaviour] London Festival of Europe
The London Festival of Europe starts tomorrow April 30th and comes with some interesting events. There is for example a discussion on transnational grassroots politics on May 1st, artistic night walks/performance across the city, discussions on walking as an artistic practice... For more details visit: http://www.euroalter.com/london-festival-of-europe/ SOME EVENTS: May 1: Locus Solus Organised by theatre company Out Of the Box, Locus Solus is a intermedia project exploring the idea of science in relation to accounts of contemporary and historical utopic imagination. This performance based installation project draws on the novel Locus Solus (’Solitary or Unique Place’, 1914) by Raymond Roussel (1877-1933), a proto-Surrealist text in which a scientist named Martial Canterel fits out luxurious laboratories in a villa near Paris. May 1: Midnight Procession Concluding the performance of Locus Solus, artists, dancers, musicians, poets, writers, philosophers and other odd characters will move from London Bridge (assemble outside Shunt Vaults) going for a night procession through Brick Lane and up to Shoreditch. The procession will include choreography, music, speed, and much more! An artistic, political, and poetic night not to be missed. May 2: Flaneurs Sans Frontieres Join us for an informal debate with poets, artists, architects and philosophers on walking as an artistic and political practice, and one of the defining traits of the European city. May 3: Utopia City: Urban Games Talks on artistic strategies for the city followed by a guided artistic walk near the olympic site, followed by a picnic and video projections after sunset 5.00pm: film showings at arcola theatre: ‘the Games’, ‘Village underground’ and ‘finisterre’. 6.00pm: discussion: ‘urban regeneration and artistic resistance’ discussion on the olympic site, urban geographies and urban art at arcola. 7.00pm: Tour of the new Olympic Site, picnic, and video projections. Meet at arcola at 7pm or Hackney wick station at 7.30pm ... -- Olga http://www.ungravitational.net http://virtualfirefly.wordpress.com ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

[NetBehaviour] Slump City at Space Media...
Slump City at Space Media... June 6th – June 26th 2009 http://www.spacestudios.org.uk/blogcategory/Forthcoming_Exhibitions/ As the consequences of the global recession begin to take effect, the regeneration of East London, the traditional home of London’s large artist community, has slowed and the promised Olympic legacy looks in doubt. It is within this context that SPACE presents Slump City an exhibition presenting the work of 3 exciting emerging artists whose visionary and haunting work combines gothic fantasy, poetic social realism and psycho- geography to imagine the urban periphery. Laura Oldfield Ford, winner of the VABT award, a recent graduate of RCA whose first show was at Marlborough Fine Art last Autumn, currently has a solo show at Hales Gallery and is about to show at Arnolfini in Bristol. For Slump City Oldfield- Ford is making a new piece, a large wall of A2 drawings which feed from her ongoing subjective exploration and psycho-geographic mapping of the neglected backwaters of East London. These relay a broken narrative centered on an East London that is being cleared and sanitised for the 2012 Olympic games. Karen Russo is known internationally for her video, drawing and sculpture and the strange and disturbing source materials which she uses to transform the everyday in to contemporary surreal and gothic imagery that explores romantic notions of the sublime. For Slump City Russo presents a filmed excursion inside an urban sewage pipe system. Viewed through a small robot camera, used to locate blockages, an ever-expanding system of sewer pipes is revealed, mapping the ‘belly’ under our city. Tessa Farmer's recent practice has been inspired by her 2007 residency at London’s Natural History Museum, playing on a strong undercurrent of horror and abjection that has always existed as a counter-narrative to the Victorian tradition of naturalism to which Tessa Farmer's work offers a redress. For Slump City she will be presenting her stuffed and reawakened ‘road kill’ arranged into fantasy scenarios where insect fairy tormentors seek revenge for all their brethren once smothered in killing jars and pinned in display case trophies. Tessa Farmer’s work was included in the 2004 edition of the 'Bloomberg New Contemporaries', where her installation 'Swarm' was spotted by Charles Saatchi and purchased for his collection. To compliment the context and content of Slump City SPACE will be conducting a tour of the artist enclave Hackney WIck, combining studio visits and tours of artist run space as part of CREATE 09- the annual arts festival hosted by the five host boroughs of the 2012 Olympic games and Hackney Wicked the artists run festival. ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
Re: [NetBehaviour] the lost Lost text
i've lost the sensation that my physical body being is alien to me, and lost the paranoia about the effects of thought upon others in the physical world. lost all faith in government, in all politicians and in the economy, and in business... lost hope that any of these things can ever make use of me as me, instead of me as a resource, me as an organic machine, me restricted and limited and constrained.

[NetBehaviour] Climate Change protesters: mobilise or repress?
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?? :??

[NetBehaviour] URBAN ORGANICS WORKSHOP
Figuratively describing the country of Matrizenzubehoerleute…... A N U R B A NO R G A N I C S W O R K S H O P The city presents an unmapped, sparsely inhabited place, extravagantly rich in unexplored resources, waiting as it were for the arrival of someone to give form to the latent possibilities which lay beyond regular spatial comprehension. The poet, wandering describes reflections on streetlife, overlaid by the desire to develop typographies and document of human life. The civilian traveler as they traverse the urban terrain, passing amongst concrete corridors of the imagination remakes the city through forming their own reflective typographies. Looking then at our perception of city scenes and urban space as a hybrid of different forms, Figuratively describing the country of Matrizenzubehoerleute…. (ma-tritsen.tzu-behuer.loyter) provides participants with a tool-kit which will allow them to trace and unveil the creative potential of their every day surroundings through a series of collaborative exercises. The group will undertake explorations of the space surrounding the DIY Art Centre, observe and reproduce behavioral patterns and begin to develop the basis of a new language through archetypal typography. The workshop will provide an introduction to techniques which empower the participants to further understand how we interact with our surroundings. The group will explore the urban spaces surrounding the Art Centre along a perimeter between two lands drawn from places which belong neither to the ordinary, nor the Other, but which are imbued with a presence of both; just as the sky can be seen to fall down towards the sea.

[NetBehaviour] An admission of guilt and new Microcode
I have a secret. I've been carrying it around with me for a couple of months now. Actually, I haven't carried it around. It's been living in a cabinet in my living room. I am now going to reveal this secret because it's gone a tad bit further than I expected it to. The conceptual artist On Kawara has 101 followers on twitter at the time of this writing. I have only 20-something. But I am On Kawara on twitter. Or rather, On Kawara on twitter is a Perl script that gets automatically run once a day on a server in a cabinet in my living room. I haven't done anything to publicize his activities on twitter. All he does is announce, I AM STILL ALIVE once a day. He doesn't follow anyone. Yet, somehow, it seeped out into the twitter community. The Perl Net::Twitter client name should be a dead give away. The interesting thing about this (and my original reason for launching it) is that it blatantly negates the whole idea behind On Kawara's I AM STILL ALIVE messages. Whereas those did indeed confirm that he was still alive, this doesn't. It's an automated process that he doesn't even control. Were he to die, he would continue to announce I AM STILL ALIVE, everday, on twitter. So it really does two things; by falsely confirming that he is alive, it casts doubt on the issue but it also keeps the notion of him actively announcing that he is alive, alive. So what may sound like a simple prank is actually pretty complex and gets more complex the more you think about it. Anyway, I've now released the On_Kawara twittering script as one of the Microcodes at http://pallit.lhi.is/microcodes This throws a new wrench into the works. The script is posted exactly as it is, complete with the username and the password. I can't even begin to imagine where that will go. best r.

On May 8, 2009, the Netherlands Media Art Institute will hold the symposium ‘Positions in flux: On the changing role of the artist and the institution’ in Amsterdam. Please find the symposium’s programme attached to this email. The second panel is dedicated to the ‘new nodes in the digital map’, i.e. new media (art) initiatives and organisations such as yours. We would like to get a better understanding of the local situation in which these new initiatives and groups establish themselves and which artistic practices derives from it. What are the challenges that you have to face and how do you envision the future of your initiative? You can participate in our debate not only by watching the live stream of the symposium. We will also enable an online live chat which will be visible at the symposium’s venue. So-called ‘chat agents’ and the moderators will pick up questions and comments from that live chat and include them in the debate. The links to the chat and the stream will to be found on our website http://www.nimk.nl .We are hoping for your participation in the debate. In addition to this you could also send us a 2 minutes max video (or the link to it) in which you explain your situation, artistic practices and vision. We would screen these contributions during the symposium, during or before the second panel. Moreover we would publish the videos or links on the media art platform www.mediaartplatform.org. This gives you the chance to promote your activities and inform the symposium’s attendees about your work which will hopefully result in new connections and collaborations. Please send us your material before May 6, 2009 to el...@nimk.nl We are looking forward to hearing from you.
