Become a Scientist!  Build your own acoustic jungle!

V2_Organisation and Goethe-Institut Inter Nationes present: 'Sensible
akustische Modules'. Under the banner 'Become a scientist! Build your own
acoustic jungle!' three young artists from Cologne  Felix Hahn, Miki Yui
and Ralf Schreiber  design acoustic modules which subtle sounds are
triggered by light and audio signals.
Hahn, Yui and Schreiber are all three graduates from the Academy of Media
Arts in Cologne.
In three programs (an exhibition, a performance, and a workshop) they focus
on the relationship between humans and their acoustic environment. Their
modules show that our surroundings are not entirely filled with 'noise' and
subtly re-open our ears for the interaction between sound and environment.

Opening
Monday 2nd July 2001, location: Goethe-Institut, Westersingel 9, 3014 GM
Rotterdam, 20.00 till 22.00 hours.
Opening speech by the artists.

Exhibition 'ask 02 & solar sound modules  nervous networks'
Tuesday 3rd till Sunday 8th July 2001, location: Goethe-Institut, Tue  Thu
10.00 till 19.00 hours, Fri 10.00 till 17.00 hours, Sat  Sun 14.00 till
18.00 hours, entrance free.

'ask 02' (acoustic survival kit)': Try on and experience acoustic
waistcoats consisting of embedded electronic components which generate
sound according to light intensity.
'solar sound modules  nervous networks': a group of electronic particles
which move and produce sound under the influence of light. Together they
form an organic system, the minimum construction for synthetic life: an
acoustic jungle.

Performance: 'Schwachstromelektriker & Datenrauschen'
Friday 6th July 2001, V2_Organisatie during dot.nu program, 20.00 hours,
entrance fl. 7,50

'Schwachstromelektriker': With solar modules Miki Yui and Ralf Schreiber,
supported by Felix Hahn, create live exciting beats and surprising rhythms.
'Datenrauschen': is a program for live mixing of sound files, which can be
loaded from the local hard drive or filtered off the Internet.
Datenrauschen filters audio and subsequently integrates it into an ongoing
sound collage. (concept/ design: Felix Hahn, programming Holger Reckter)

Workshops Build your own solar bot and chaotic sound module
Tuesday 3rd July and Wednesday 4th July 2001, location: V2_Organisatie,
14.00 till 18.00 hours, entrance fl. 10,-

The artists Yui, Schreiber and Hahn teach the participants how they can
solder their own solar bot and solar sound module. Seats limited, booking
advised, contact Nat Muller via email [email protected] or phone (010) 206 72 72.

The events are part of the Wiretap 7 series. More info: www.v2.nl/wiretap

=46rom Now to Later, Love, Me
[Postcards to the Future]

Traditional postcards communicate a succinct idea or sentiment from 
one point in space to another point, "Wish you were here", "I'll be 
back soon", "This place is beautiful", "Please send money". The 
Postcard format is emphatically about the communication between 2 
places; location shots are the mainstay and the content of the 
message is necessarily brief and often colored with location and 
dislocation.

In this project, art students at the University of California 
Berkeley created personal multimedia postcards to the future. These 
postcards link two points in time, rather than two points in space, 
conveying some aspect of each artist's life - their frustrations, 
social context, ambitions, or whimsy - from now to later. These 
time-based multimedia postcards are also succinct (all 2 minutes or 
less, 250x300 pixels) requiring clear, focussed, or intentionally 
simplistic, even cartoonish, authorship that does not elaborate an 
idea, but rather compresses it for delivery across the time-field (or 
the Internet; whichever is slower). The messages are similarly 
colored by the format, conveying themes of location in or traversal 
of time.

We invite you to visit, browse the postcards, and send one to a 
friend as an e-card now=8A.or later.

<intro>
the "open radio archive network group" (orang.orang.org)
and the "open video archive" (ova.zkm.de) are now
extended with a new layer: OMA, the "open meta archive"
released under the GPL, is a context management system
to categorize and publish rich media documents including
text, photo, audio and video in realmedia, quicktime and
mp3. it includes SQL support, xml export, newsgroups,
and, of course, automatic generation of static html pages.

<abstrakt>
"You don't have to know everything, you just have to know the reference."

This is only possible, if there is an appropriate system in the
archiving process. For various media the requirements for indexing is
different. This leads to different indexing structures for each
medium. OMA harmonizes the so differenciated media entries to the
database by connecting these different archiving systems on a meta
level.

Putting information into an archive, is to serve someone' s needs to
access these informations. By providing an all-in-one surface to
different media, OMA provides a solution to create new archived
contexts from existing server-based mono- or few-media archives and
publish them.

<more details>

The Open Meta Archive, OMA, is a multimedial content management system
on the basis of specific detailed information to different media like
video, audio, image and text within the database system. The Open Meta
Archive is combining these seperate medial modules on a meta level.

The main components of OMA are:

*  descriptive database entries for the media files according to their
   specific attributes

*  category system, based on a definable tree structure

*  defining a location for the meta-gathered medial information in the
   tree structure

*  the meta items can be copied, moved or linked within the tree

*  media upload and descriptive database entries through web browser

*  access relative to user (editor)

*  automatised database entries through XML input

*  structured document output with XML/HTML-based templates

*  fulltext and keyword retrieval, as well as hierarchic navigation

*  distribution of data to joint, but independently administrated OMA
   systems

Data Sperm
Nervously a 3D Woody Allen paces outside a polygon Sperm Bank. Polly is
indeed gone, the nurse of his fantasies already gone home with his
analyst. Virt.nature would soothe, but is hard to find in
Virt.Manhattan. Mr.Allen clicks to Virt.Melb, coincidentally the locale
of one Jon McCormack, who since 86 has been creating Electronic Gardens
of Artificial Life, Self Generating Ecosystems, and acoustic and virtual
environments that respond to weather conditions and audience responses.
Jean Poole did the virt.handsake thing, and got this to keep:

How did you get involved with computer animation?
I started out studying mathematics, but I never really liked it until I
discovered you could look at all those funny symbols in graphical form.
You could actually see abstract symbols and relationships made visible /
material through graphics technology. The next year I went to film
school at Swinburne where they had computers that made animations. It
was a revelation. Suddenly I knew what I wanted to do, and since then
I�ve been using computers for creative applications to explore the
aesthetics of processes.

Where has animation  gone since you've been playing with it?
It�s become much easier since I started (in the mid 1980�s). A lot of
software people had to write in the early days is now incorporated into
animation systems, but fundamentally they all work in the same way.
However I find most of the modern animation packages very disappointing,
because they operate under a very limited aesthetic, essentially trying
to mimic reality, rather than looking at an expanded representation of
what computers might offer.

What attracts you to artificial life and ecosystems?
I suppose it�s the way they can often have these kind of emergent
properties, with the whole being greater than the sum of the parts. I
like the way they can surprise you and behave in ways that you never
planned or expected. I�m also attracted to adopting the "metaphor" of
process-based systems, particularly living systems, since they are such
a rich source of creativity.

How far has work in this area advanced?
Calling something "artificial life" is easy, but just because you call
it life doesn�t mean that its really alive in any sensible sense. Many
layers of complexity exist in the natural world that are ignored in
a-life simulations, because computers can�t handle all that intricacy.
It�s surprised me how few biologists want to get involved in core a-life
research. Maybe b-life is already too much of a challenge. We are a long
way off from even matching the real complexity of a single cell in any
a-life simulations, so there is still a long way to go yet.

What are the major A-Iife debates at the moment?
Could any computer simulation ever genuinely be called "alive" (strong
Alife) or only ever be a simulation (weak A-life)? I tend to think the
latter. Another major debate (that extends to cognitive science and AI)
is the internal representation of concepts and the embodiment of
meaning, although not all A-life models specifically reference this
problem.

Douglas Adams said we�ll grow artificial intelligence rather than design
it - what do you think?
It�s easy to get carried away with the notion of "growing" and
"evolving" almost anything, but this approach may only be suitable for a
limited set of problems. The problem of "intelligence" is very complex
and varied, and a number of milestone results in AI have been achieved
without using evolutionary algorithms. Nonetheless, ideas like growing
intelligence come from the fact that our own intelligence is in some
sense grown; i.e. that we evolved from "less intelligent" species over
millions of years and also that our own learning
processes have much to do with our physicality in the world (most
computers have very little in the way of physical experience).

What's the relationship between technology and your creative process?
My main interests lie in how interactive, process-based models allow us
to interpret and understand the world in new ways. Certainly recent
technological advances in, for example, real-time 3D graphics, have
advanced the possibilities for investigating these ideas.

What are your favourite pieces of software and why?
I guess with all modesty aside I�d say my own software is what I like
using the best. Software is the implementation of ideas in a technology
that is "perpendicular" to the brain. The two complement each other very
well, if the software is implemented in the right way.

How has using technology shaped your art & thinking (good & bad)?
It has benefits and difficulties. I am very conscious of the "digital
aesthetic" that limits most technological works, and that computers
aren�t designed as "art machines", and carry a lot of cultural
limitations from the disiplines where they were born (e.g.
military/industrial, science, engineering, "American Ideology" and so
on).

What will you say to your waking software daughter?
I have enough trouble relating to my human one at the moment.
