[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. URBAN ORGANICS: Figuratively describing the country of Matrizenzubehoerleute... 11.00-16.00, Sunday, 3rd May Non-consessional: £8 Consessions: £4 CORD Members: £2 This introductory public workshop is open to people of all disciplines and levels of experience.

[NetBehaviour] not for profit organisation - draft
Developing programs of performance, visual, interactive and media arts for a range of venues, one discovers a wide range of different organisational praxis. The most confusing of which has to be a concept introduced to me last night. we have a strict not-for profit policy and insist that all shows provide free drinks. Working with a group of 20 creative professionals, most of which have studied their undergraduate and masters degrees in England, if not then at least their masters. They have made investments in equipment, having invested time in development. What is the value here? The average debt from an undergraduate degree in England is in between £7 and £16,000. Now a masters degree costs upwards of £4,500 - the money for living that year at least £3,000. Taking an average 11,500 x 20 = 230,000. 6,000 x 6 = 36,000. Equipment owned by the creative practitioners @ approx. 2,000. Other investments in the program this far = £300. The total in cost so far, towards being able to stage an credited, capable show by purpose trained professionals: £268,300. I feel that we must indeed be a not for profit (or incapable of profit) organisation, unless the value of art has changed dramatically overnight. I just want to help artists pay their bills. ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

The section that states “the potential of translocally networked spatial practices” translocational potential of networked spacial practices ? this strain raises an interesting opportunity to discuss the nature of mail groups. is this a space for announcements ? from my reading so far, net behaviour does not seem like an announcement list, rather an experiment. informal lists are vital threshing grounds for the development of ideas, but also for personal development within disciplines which an individual may be dislocated from, if even in an extreme level of profoundity. making a comparison between blogging, website publication, online text archives and the group mailing list, it seems that the nature of the group mailing list is far better suited to development rather than announcement - it's just as easy to access a personal, creative, organisational or events website which - even if it is an undeveloped blog by means of aesthetic - holds an equal capacity to relay more refined publishable materials. could have been more simply written, however it is clear in what it says – that the research is engaging the potential of networked practices by practitioners who are interested in spaces that transcend the local (the way it was originally written was better). The next section, which states “urban network processes, spaces of geocultural crises, and forms of cultural participation and self-determination” is equally clear. Urban network processes are events that occur in urban environments within the network infrastructures of which such environments are composed (communications and transport are examples). Geocultural crises are crises that are caused by geocultural issues. This is shorthand for the post-colonial politics around access to land based resources by different cultural groups (Gaza is an example here, as is Darfur). I do not see what the problem is with the sub- phrase “cultural participation and self-determination”. It seems clear as it seeks to conflate the individuation of self (the forging of self) with participation in social activities (that is, the self depends on others to come into being). Sites of “alternative urban engagement” simply refers to places where non- normalised social activities can be pursued and social groupings can form that facilitate those who do not conform to dominant social norms (eg: raves, biker cafes, hardcore clubs, etc). The last three words are, I agree, a little confusing. What is the object of the phrase “emerging architectural cultures”. Does this refer to cultures composed of architects or to cultures that are shaped by architecture? I would assume the latter, but the grammar employed here is, I agree, not very clear. Overall the text is clear and in its linguistic form usefully suggests what its cultural origins are (left intellectual academic). The text as a whole clearly states that its concern is with who gains access to and rights of definition of social and economic infrastructure in culturally contested urban spaces and what the implications are for the communities and individuals involved.

Data extracted from log files, or from a database, are dripped onto the background picture, chosen by the user, in a way called ’statistic dripping’, as a tribute to Jackson Pollock . In Statistic Dripping, the canvas is a picture selected on the network by the painter. The painter is the user of the application. The movement is the trace of website visitors displacements, treated by the software. Furthermore, Infoscape works on JPEG compression level in order to transgress photography and reveal the intrinsic digital nature of the generated image. It confronts localized space evoked on pre-selected background picture and remote data included into these spaces, and doing so, it is a conceptual tool to preconfigure and reflect upon ubiquitous computing and the ability for every atom on earth to get an IP address and a digital identity. http://www.yannleguennec.com/blog/2004/12/28/infoscape/ -- ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org mailto:NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour - --- ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour - --- No virus found in this incoming message.

Re: [NetBehaviour] Selling software art
Noun commodity (plural commodities) Anything movable (a good) that is bought and sold. 1995, James G. Carrier, Gifts and Commodities: Exchange and Western Capitalism Since 1700, p.122[[1]] If a key part of shopping is the conversion of anonymous commodities into possessions, shopping is a cultural as much as an economic activity. 2001, Rachel Pain, Introducing Social Geographies, p. 26 [[2]] In human geography commodities usually refers to goods and services which are bought and sold. The simplest commodities are those produced by the production system just before they are sold. 2005, William Leiss, Botterill, Jacki, Social Communication in Advertising: Consumption in the Mediated Marketplace, p.307 [[3]] Referring to the work of Bourdieu, Zukin (2004,38) notes that shopping is much more than the purchase of commodities Something useful or valuable. And Slade said: It really makes me sad that football club chairmen and boards seem to have lost that most precious commodity - patience. Sam's sacking at Newcastle had, I suppose, been on the cards for a while, but it is really ridiculous to fire a manager after such a short time. Somerset County Gazette on Jan. 14th, 2008. (economics) Raw materials, agricultural products and other primary products as objects of large scale trading in specialized exchanges. The price of crude oil is determined in continuous trading between professional players in World's many commodities exchanges. (marketing) Undifferentiated goods characterized by a low profit margin, as distinguished from branded products.

The work will also be exhibited as part of the Piksel festival in Bergen, Norway. Here in Iceland we have what's called The Center for Icelandic Art. Their job is to provide financial assistance to artists taking their work abroad. They're the only source for travel grants for short trips like this one. I applied, I got rejected (with no explanation of why), I have this nagging feeling that they don't get this type of art. So what I would like to do now, is to sell copies of this work to get some funds towards the trip (I had already bought flight tickets before I got rejected). The work consists of a piece of software running on a computer. It doesn't produce any output but it's doing a lot of background work. So to provide the viewer with some information on what's going on, four A2 sized posters, displaying the source code at various stages of the softwares development, will be displayed. The software itself is free under the GPL license and lives at http://code.google.com/p/existpl But I have for sale a limited edition of twenty sets of these posters. I'll only sell them in sets. There are four posters in the set. These are signed and numbered, high quality color prints suitable for framing. Ideally, they would be displayed in a row on a wall with a computer nearby to run the software when the owner chooses (but this entirely up to the purchaser of the work). You can see a small version of what they look like at the following URLs: http://pallit.lhi.is/~palli/code1.pdf http://pallit.lhi.is/%7Epalli/code1.pdf http://pallit.lhi.is/~palli/code2.pdf http://pallit.lhi.is/%7Epalli/code2.pdf http://pallit.lhi.is/~palli/code3.pdf http://pallit.lhi.is/%7Epalli/code3.pdf http://pallit.lhi.is/~palli/code4.pdf http://pallit.lhi.is/%7Epalli/code4.pdf The price is $50 per set. If I manage to sell all twenty sets, this will provide enough to cover printing and mailing costs, with the remainder being approximately what I applied for from The Center for Icelandic Art.

Re: [NetBehaviour] this code is not my own
this work is not my own. it is not my own because i have not created it. i did not create the connection between these keys and the virtual memory with which they interact; nor did i create the manner in which these words will be understood. Nor did you create the category of art or the genre of net.art. But that does not mean that your work would exist if you did not make it. our work is work though our work is not our own; it lives in temporal memory, in the senses and in the contemplation of those who come across it. a painter who paints did not create the paint with which they work; if so, they did not create the paint's pigment; if so, they did not create the canvas; if so they did not cut the wood from which the canvas frame has been made; if the wood had not been cut straight, then the picture would not be a rectangle. the picture is not a rectangle anyway. And yet, they paint. they paint and paint and how disgusting their works are! This can be contrasted with the postindustrial/outsourcing/offshoring approach of Kostabi, Koons and Hirst. (Or with a traditional artist's studio where an assistant would paint the clothes or the hands.) how the industrial revolution has put an end to our beautiful notions of gothisism. through my work with coding i have come to see that no ones work is their own, we can simply make manifest with the materials we have learned to control. There comes a point at which that which one is controlling, is the people who are tangibly controlling the materials. At that point one's materials are human beings, and the art is management not code. our management is not our own; it lies within interactions between nodal points, charged towards putting the purpose upon their routes. At that point the potential of code to resist its exploitation by manageralism collapses and the artist simply reflects the ego of corporate information culture. our purposes are not our own; they are programmed into us and we, running along wires and lucid configurations of plastic, reformable space, imagine how the architecture surrounding us must have been necessary for some reason or another. Harold Cohen's talk at the Tate a few years back (available to stream here; http://www.tate.org.uk/onlineevents/webcasts/harold_cohen/ default.jsp ) mentions the idea of code as craft. our craft is not our own; we exist to configure, shape and forge materials for the reasons we may come to comprehend. - Rob. thanks rob! ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour Benjamin R Bailey de Paor Arts industries professional cultura3 ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
