I'm trying to set something up like that in Birmingham currently. It seems there's interest in it, but not the manpower. Good luck with yours, I may travel down to see it too.

A good precursor example, that most here are probably familiar with, is Access Space / Redundant Technology Initiative (Sheffield), run by James Wallbank. More hardware hacking, but nevertheless relevant. It worked!

[NetBehaviour] Changeover - Open Call for Submissions.
Changeover - Open Call for Submissions. What could be more temporary than guerilla exhibitions in a Temporary Art Space during the taking down of one show and the hanging of the next? Every day promises to be different with variable opening times according to the hanging schedule. The public will be able to see the inner workings of a gallery as the parasitic 'Changeover' exhibitions attempt to occupy an ever decreasing space. You could propose to use the whole space or a part of it for one hour, one day or propose a project that runs for the whole duration of 'Changeover'. Changeover dates: Friday 27th March – Friday 3rd April 2009 Friday 24th April – Friday 1st May 2009 Friday 29th May – Friday 5th June 2009 Friday 26th June – Friday 3rd July 2009 Friday 31st July – Friday 7th August 2009 Artists should bear in mind that limited gallery space will be available during changeover and there will be through-traffic and installation work undertaken, email proposals with supporting images (under 10MB total) and web links to: i...@temporaryartspace.co.uk Temporary Art Space is an unfunded, artist-run project with a lifespan of six months, situated in the magnificent Grade 1 listed Piece Hall in Halifax and co-directed by Alice Bradshaw, Bob Milner, Tom Senior, Kevin Boniface Georgia Boniface. http://www.temporaryartspace.co.uk/ ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

Re: [NetBehaviour] Fwd: [ORG-discuss] London Hack Space
Hi we are trying to set up a medialab since one year in Area10 where we could welcome such meeting and open the space for projects like that. We faced a lot of difficulties due to the space condition. The space that would have been dedicated to it have been flooded 2 weeks ago... http://www.a10lab.info is the backup website of few months ago (our server was under water!!!) We are actually looking for a new space for the medialab, or in Area10 or near. Also we are actually opening a new space in Cossall Estate, peckham, dedicated to new media, hacking, open hardware, free software, workshop, digital art...etc I will join the list and propose it there but if some guys are already interested we could talk about it for some meeting or proposition. the space should be operational early march! cheers Julien Ottavi -- Forwarded message -- From: Jonty Wareing jo...@jonty.co.uk Date: Sun, Jan 25, 2009 at 11:11 PM Subject: [ORG-discuss] London Hack Space To: org-disc...@lists.openrightsgroup.org For some time now London has been in need of a proper hacker space.

[NetBehaviour] Zebulon set from last night
Zebulon recording from last night Here's a recording of the set Myk Freedman (lap steel), Azure Carter (voice), and I (acoustic electric, tamburitza, ukulele) did last night at Zebulon. The original recording was incredibly noisy - I did what I could to sweeten it with CoolEdit. I'm quite happy with the music. In order - all accompanied by Myk - 1 - w/ acoustic electric. This is the worst recorded - string buzz is much too noticable. Fast tempo. 2 - w/ Azure, melody and voice, and tamburitza - slow then jump rhythm 3 - w/ ukulele - this needed a contact mike - I was thinking of Henry Grimes' percussion along the way. 4 - w/ acoustic electric - high-speed quotes outside potential wells. That's about it - enjoy - Alan http://www.alansondheim.org/zebulons.mp3 ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
[NetBehaviour] Weather, Sync, and Physics in SL from yesterday
Weather, Sync, and Physics in SL The following have come out of the show in Second Life - ian.mp4 is based on Debris Field, the title of the installation - since it was near closing, I took out a lot of the elements present and added one which was duplicated - this was made for Ian Ah. There are about 100 of these; in ian.mp4 the avatar travels through them. What's interesting is the way they align themselves into two groups, at either ends of the field - and the way the particles from the groups form somewhat random vortices. You can see the alignment in sync.mp4 - I removed the particles for this, so the objects are clearly visible and divided into two sets of equivalent but out of sync motions. I'm fascinated by this - I think the field itself must be divided into two different land parcels. So virtual worlds go - they're stitched together. The last video, vortices.mp4, maps the weather over the regions - particles cross boundaries without changing direction, but their initial impulse comes from their parent region. There's a fairly complex physics at work here - the vortices are in 3d of course, or 4d dynamic objects. In a sense this is a computer modeling of a computer modeling - the programmed space made visible by a layer of programmed responding particles and particle generators. So what emerges? Stitching, vortices, weathers without precipitation or effect on 'concrete objects' (i.e. only on particles). In the future, the stitching will cover larger and larger areas, precipitation will leave floods, wind damage, and destruction in its wake; and grounds will muddy, dust bowls will render the virtual land virtually fallow... http://www.alansondheim.org/ian.mp4 http://www.alansondheim.org/sync.mp4 http://www.alansondheim.org/vortices.mp4 Below are some stills from the above as well as others of the elements in the debris field, including a few of Julu Twine with different elements as well. http://www.alansondheim.org/ arena pngs and jpgs | Alan Sondheim Mail archive: http://sondheim.rupamsunyata.org/ | To access the Odyssey exhibition The Accidental Artist: | http://slurl.com/secondlife/Odyssey/48/12/22 | Webpage (directory) at http://www.alansondheim.org | sondh...@panix.com, sondh...@gmail.org, tel US 718-813-3285 ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
[NetBehaviour] XorCurses-0.0.2
Hi, For those interested (in retro console/terminal ASCII games on Linux) I have just made a new release of XorCurses. It's starting to look like a proper game now :-) New to this release are: falling fish (ouch) running chickens (arrgh!) a map (woohoo!) and even, imagine this, a menu to allow you select which level you want to play (some levels restricted until further coding) - just like the original Xor game! more: http://jwm-art.net/light.php?p=j20090127-0415 there's bound to be bugs, but the last time i checked (on the important stuff) no memory leaks. enjoy. james ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
