[NetBehaviour] Rob Myers' Shareable Readymades

[furtherfield]

Rob Myers' Shareable Readymades

We are delighted to launch a special edition of Rob Myers' Shareable
Readymades to collect. Available in a variety of delightful finishes,
complete with certificate of inauthenticity.
http://www.furtherfield.org/artdatamoney/shareablereadymades/

Myers takes three iconic ‘readymades’ from the 20th century art canon and
transforms their value once again. By creating a downloadable, freely
licensed 3D model to print and remix, everyone can now have their own Pipe,
Balloon Dog and Urinal, a conceptual digital artwork available on demand.

Combining Free and Open Source culture with a new perspective on the idea
of original and copyrighted artworks, Myers explores ideas about owning art
and consumerism, alongside the way the Internet changes our relationship to
production and sharing.

The artworks will also be shown in Furtherfield's The Human Face of
Cryptoeconomies art show.

Re: [NetBehaviour] Michel Foucault on refugees

[marc garrett]

Hi Joumana,

I copied it from the Nettime email list earlier, I'm glad you found it
useful.

if you're interested, in 2012 I wrote an article called 'Revisiting the
Curious World of Art & Hacktivism'.
http://www.furtherfield.org/features/articles/revisiting-curious-world-art-hacktivism

In it, I discuss Heath Bunting's 'BorderXing Guide'...

"Heath Bunting's BorderXing Guide website primarily consists of
documentation of walks that traverse national boundaries, without
interruption from customs, immigration, or border police. The work comments
on the way in which movement between borders is restricted by governments
and associated bureaucracies. It is a manual written not at distance like a
google map, but by foot. A physical investigation, involving actually going
to these places; trying these discovered routes out and then sharing them
with others. A carefully calculated politics of public relations."

Also, on the same theme I talk about 'The Transborder Immigrant Tool
(TBT)',

...where "Ricardo Dominguez collaborated with Brett Stalbaum, Micha
Cardenas, Amy Sara Carroll & Elle Mehrmand, on (TBT) (and others), on a
hand-held mobile phone device that aids crossers of the Mexico-US border.
An inexpensive tool to support the finding of water caches left in the
Southern California desert by NGO’s for those crossing the border."

may be worth discussing with other artists, friends and people concerned
how to explore the social context in an artistic and activist way ;-)

Wishing you well.

Re: [NetBehaviour] An interview with Geert Lovink

[Randall Packer]

Ruth, that’s the first time I have heard you articulate the high-importance of 
the relationship and intersection between the physical Furtherfield venues with 
the virtual networked spaces of the list, etc. This cross-pollination between 
the local and the remote seems to always be the great challenge of networked 
projects and their communities, but also one of the most interesting. The 
question and solutions you raise are compelling: to create a dialogue across 
this divide, creating third space social engagement between the two. How do to 
this with a text-based email list is an even greater challenge, so I think 
having those who are on the ground in the park, or at least actively involved 
in what is happening there, should be hosting conversations on the list: 
reportage from the Furtherfield gallery. I wonder also if it is possible for 
visitors in the gallery to participate here, though that seems more appropriate 
for social media. When we created multiple channels for NetArtizens, that 
presented a good distribution solution, especially when there was 
cross-referencing between Twitter and NetBehaviour. Personally, I think it is 
interesting to think about all the various channels we use as a wholistic 
activity, because in a sense, they all seem to blend together with a lot of the 
same participants, for example Marc’s Facebook postings with this list. You 
bring up some crucial networked issues in terms of engaging virtual 
communities, the key question being how to bridge those virtual communities 
with physical social spaces.

Dear Annie,
 
 You have thrown the cat amongst the pigeons of my mind!
 
 Of course!
 
 All the time I think - what makes Furtherfield/Netbehaviour super-special is 
this link between what happens in the experiments and conversations between us 
all here on the list, and in the physical places in the Furtherfield park 
venues (and on tour). 
 
 The work done by our avant-art-tech networks and communities prompts wonderful 
(I find them wonderful) encounters, activities and conversations with park 
users, local residents (from every country- perhaps- in the world) and 
exhibition visitors (local and international).
 
 But I too have had a feeling of un-ease about a disconnect with the 
conversations that happen here on the list. This list is one of my favourite 
places, and yet I find it hard to advocate for it, to people who are not 
already here. Perhaps because email has now acquired toxic associations for 
many people because of the demands it places on 'immaterial labourers'.
 
 I have a couple of thoughts about what we might do.
 
 Firstly- a Netbehaviour subscriber could volunteer to host, here on the list, 
any of the following people
 
artists in our upcoming show, 
a recent student placement student, 
any member of our regular (overworked) staff-team.  
I would invite them to join us as our guest, to talk about their work, 
contribution and experience with Furtherfield. As a host you would be 
responsible for making them feel welcome here and helping them (by mailing with 
them in private) to negotiate conversations if they were to get spikey: ) 
 
 Secondly
 
 If there is an appetite amongst netbehaviourists for more sharing of 
Furtherfield process, it would be easy (and pleasurable, and useful, and 
actually quite a relief) to open up and share some of the things happening 'on 
the ground'. As long as people could tolerate incompleteness (we have to take 
care not invade the privacy of collaborators and partners), contradiction (I 
have an unruly mind), and the occasional indefensible statement (we work it out 
as we go) along the way.
 
 To give you a taste of what kinds of topics these might touch on let me start 
with a brain dump of the possible [Netbehaviour] Subject Headers about 
Furtherfield process.

[ruth catlow]

Thanks Annie and Randall,

for offers to host and for your ideas and reflections.

The idea of asking a gallery visitor to join a discussion on 
Netbehaviour is provoking!


I look forward to hearing more from you Annie: )

Randall,I'd also like to comment on something you wrote in an earlier mail :
"it’s not clear to me that he is aware of the many museums in the US and 
the around the world that are employing social media and what is called 
“user-generated content” in all sorts of compelling ways that invite 
engagement and social change. "


I think that what is under discussion here is digital art or media art 
that prompts a more critical reflection about digital tools and 
technology- and considers how they influence and change mass behaviours 
and society and power etc. I think this goes beyond 'engagement'. This 
is not to dismiss the work that you describe- just to distinguish.

Hey yall,

I'm working on a new art website. Let me know what you think.

Also, where could I submit a site like this to be exhibited. Are there
still new media awards/galleries out there? It seems like the biggest web
awards (webbys, awwwards, sxsw) use the "Art" category to mean industrial
websites about art, rather than a celebration of artistic websites
themselves.

Any outlets still exist for pre-Post-Internet Art?

Any thoughts appreciated,

Part one is about an amateur photographer being discovered and exposed to
the world.

Part two is about the interplay between industrial innovation and artistic
experimentation.

Part three is about cultural insurgency.

Venice Texas created by Ryan Hovenweep and Bishop Zareh.

They're all exploited via apps now aren't they? :-)

At the risk of solutionism, modern discussion systems provide web forum
-style interfaces to mailing lists (and vice versa).

Re: [NetBehaviour] Michel Foucault on refugees

[Joumana Mourad]

Hi Marc
Thanks so much or this, I am at moment working with refugees from the
IRAqui and Syrian countries, and the problem is immense on all levels, just
witnessing their personal history makes the questions of Culture and
Borders necessary...
I am looking at how social choreography can ask these questions
Thanks again..

This, imiho, is the alienation of separation as we gradually shunt our energies 
through ever more energy-sapping technological protocols to reach out to the 
Other. In some ways, if we turned instead to the most proximal Other, life 
energy might return more fully to our Lives and alienation dispersed with the 
evaporating Cloud...

Re: [NetBehaviour] An interview with Geert Lovink

[ruth catlow]

Dear Annie,

You have thrown the cat amongst the pigeons of my mind!

Of course!

All the time I think - what makes Furtherfield/Netbehaviour 
super-special is this link between what happens in the experiments and 
conversations between us all here on the list, and in the physical 
places in the Furtherfield park venues (and on tour).


The work done by our avant-art-tech networks and communities prompts 
wonderful (I find them wonderful) encounters, activities and 
conversations with park users, local residents (from every country- 
perhaps- in the world) and exhibition visitors (local and international).


But I too have had a feeling of un-ease about a disconnect with the 
conversations that happen here on the list. This list is one of my 
favourite places, and yet I find it hard to advocate for it, to people 
who are not already here. Perhaps because email has now acquired toxic 
associations for many people because of the demands it places on 
'immaterial labourers'.


I have a couple of thoughts about what we might do.

Firstly- a Netbehaviour subscriber could volunteer to host, here on the 
list, any of the following people


 * artists in our upcoming show,
 * a recent student placement student,
 * any member of our regular (overworked) staff-team.

I would invite them to join us as our guest, to talk about their work, 
contribution and experience with Furtherfield. As a host you would be 
responsible for making them feel welcome here and helping them (by 
mailing with them in private) to negotiate conversations if they were to 
get spikey: )


Secondly

If there is an appetite amongst netbehaviourists for more sharing of 
Furtherfield process, it would be easy (and pleasurable, and useful, and 
actually quite a relief) to open up and share some of the things 
happening 'on the ground'. As long as people could tolerate 
incompleteness (we have to take care not invade the privacy of 
collaborators and partners), contradiction (I have an unruly mind), and 
the occasional indefensible statement (we work it out as we go) along 
the way.


To give you a taste of what kinds of topics these might touch on let me 
start with a brain dump of the possible [Netbehaviour] Subject Headers 
about Furtherfield process.


 * DAOWO preparation excitement!
 o see here http://www.furtherfield.org/artdatamoney/debate/

 * Reflections on attempting to maintain critical and politically
   astute art processes - without being po-faced and elitist.

 * Installing work by [insert the names here of every artist in
   Furtherfield's upcoming exhibition The Human Face of Cryptoeconomies
   http://bit.ly/1VrLivJ ] at Furtherfield Gallery.

 * Calculations, tactics and strategies for dealing with Furtherfield
   finances
 o Talking to businesspeople (lots of odd feelings!) and how Jeremy
   Corbyn is helping

 * Summer at the Museum of Contemporary Commodities - open
   participatory process - an extreme sport.
 o pictures here
   https://www.flickr.com/photos/http_gallery/sets/72157656437894006

 * Why Furtherfield Commons has had no landline for 3 months
 o (How BT handed over our line to another service provider without
   our agreement and then wouldn't get it back)

 * Preparations for an upcoming street programme 'The People's Magna
   Carta' at Frequency Festival in Lincoln.

 * The Furtherfield website - opening up to noobs and improving
   diversity of participants
 o 7 placement students make themselves heard (it's all a bit tricky!)

 * Seeds of a plan for an experimental innovation lab for values based
   economies
 o The Oslo Innovation Manual (apparently the role of arts, design
   and culture go unaccounted for)

 * How blockchain is redolent with the decentralised distributed
   promise of the early web
 o How we're not falling for the utopian promise of blockchain -
   but skippy with excitement nevertheless!

 * What 7 placement students said about their Summers with Furtherfield

 * How we are thinking about expanding outward and upward (and inward)
   at the gallery/lab in the park and

Finally...

Thanks to Geert (see subject header) for carrying out this in depth 
experiment with the Netbehaviour subscribers; )

and to Annie for investigating the cause of that sourness; )


What do you reckon???
Tell us, we'll do something!!!

respect due!

hi Randall,

I am not necesarrily asking for more, better media, for more 
livelyness, I am not sure I want more ...
I would like a content re-de-placement, more of the processes going on 
(artistic and organisational) and les about results and "look what I 
have done" I would like that there would be more slowness, more 
attention, more time for open reflexion on what has been done, less 
representation and for now i see that still more in the mailinglist 
than on the social media. I think we should reinvent reinvest 
mailinglists! Netbehaviour first of all.


see you
Annie
