This room consists exclusively of sound, beams and projection surfaces onto which visuals are thrown. The images & sounds are downloaded and edited live on the computer. The live music consists of sound samples from the digital archive of Station Rose. The techno live-artist moves her/his studio to the "stage" for the performance and creates new variations on sequences, new tones, temporal structures and loops in realtime. The graphic- and music-workstation are synced over MIDI. Changes will take place during the performance, thereby changing the aesthetics of the virtual light & sound space."

Bringing together more than 100 artists in a variety of disciplines, these activities will be presented from April through June under the banner Transforming Modernity. In the words of Forum director Christoph Thun-Hohenstein, the festival will "illustrate what the guiding principles and priorities are for the future of the arts in Austria and internationally: collaboration, interdisciplinary experimentation, fluidity, and conscience directed toward challenging accepted notions and exploring possibilities for new ways to communicate." Transforming Modernity is organized and produced by the Austrian Cultural Forum in collaboration with leading curators and experts from international arts institutions and universities. The Austrian Cultural Forum's programs are made possible by the Federal Ministry for Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Austria. Additional generous funding for inaugural season programming is provided by the Federal Chancellery and the Federal Ministry for Education, Science and Culture of the Republic of Austria as well as by the City of Vienna. The Forum also thanks Bank Austria, Austrian Airlines, Oesterreichische Nationalbank, and Zumtobel Staff Lighting, Inc. for their valuable support. In the field of the visual arts, the Forum will officially open its Main Gallery in April with the first of two new commissioned installations by Kurt Hentschl=E4ger and Ulf Langheinrich, collectively known as Granular Synthesis. The New York/Vienna-based new media duo, whose work represented Austria in the 2001 Venice Biennale, will create in April an "immersive environment" that literally envelopes visitors and suggests new ways to experience one's body in relation to space and sound. Describing the duo's work, Hentschl=E4ger comments: "For an Austrian artist, the desire is to actually invade the restrictions of the past and expand the definition of art, of music, of sensual experience. Electronica is hot in Europe because it provides the ultimate opportunity to get beyond the hierarchies and the obsession with history that defines much of traditional culture there. What's interesting is that a great deal of inspiration for electronic music came from America -- from the Detroit sound, from hip-hop, and the commercial world. But when we bring our work back to the States, where generally anything new is cultivated and tendered, we find we are introducing something still not widely familiar." Concurrent with the first Granular Synthesis installation, the Austrian Cultural Forum will host an ambitious international symposium exploring the electronica explosion. Titled Mediations: Archaeologies and Transformations in the Electronic Sphere, the program is organized by Timothy Druckrey, an independent curator and writer acclaimed for his investigations into the history and theory of media. The event will bring together for the first time a group of electronic artists and leading media experts from around the globe for discussion of ways in which representation and communication are being increasingly transformed everywhere by electronic culture, shaping the lives and attitudes of a generation willing to embrace continual transformation as an essential condition. Key participants in the program will include: Siegfried Zielinski, founding rector of the Kunsthochschule f=FCr Medien in Cologne, Germany and author of AudioVisions. Yukiko Shikata, independent curator working in Japan. Reinhard Braun, media theorist and writer working in Graz. Peter Rantasas musician and director of MICA (Music Information Center Austria). Vienna, Austria. Knowbotic Research (Yvonne Wilhelm, Christian H=FCbler, Alexander Tuchacek), based in Cologne and Zurich. Perry Hoberman, an artist internationally recognized for his multi-user interactive environments. Granular Synthesis, (Kurt Hentschl=E4ger and Ulf Langheinrich), widely known for spectacular sound environments. 0100101110101101.org, a working group of self-described as internet "hacktivists." Zoe Beloff, an artist working in experimental cinema, CD-ROM and performance= =2E The symposium will take place on April 20 and 21 from 12 - 9 pm at the ACF.

In the artist's own words, "CN_ZERO could be considered a hyper-construction of a 'recombinant pop-star', i.e. an ARTIST who functions as a latent carrier for art (the construction of culture) instead of the commercially constructed artist, i.e. the POP-STAR who functions as a latent carrier for capital and exchange (the leveling of culture)." Using multiple halogen work-lights, surveillance cameras, monitors, a portable p.a., a Polaroid camera and a laptop computer, CN_ZERO is in essentially a performative "base camp" for human media-saturation. An "overexposure in light and sound", CN_ZERO is a performance that questions the very conditions of possibility for cultural production. http://www.restlessculture.net/cnzero/ - --------------------- - --------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 10 Apr 2002 01:09:42 +0200 From: Impakt Production <[email protected]> Subject: CALL FOR ENTRIES to the Impakt Festival 2002 - NR CALL FOR ENTRIES Impakt is an international festival for innovative audio-visual arts.

Miller" <[email protected]> Subject: Amiri Baraka and Dj Spooky - at the Knitting Factory this weekend... Hello All - I'm just writing to do the old school e-mail thang when there's an event etc etc. This weekend I'm doing a show with the legendary poet Amiri Baraka at the Knitting factory this Saturday as part of the "Beat Festival" they're putting together, and well... it's a jam that's all about cross-generational dialog, rhythm exchange, digital media and word painting... you know, the usual wildstyle stuff I'm into... stuff like that. Me and him collaborated on a couple of tracks a while ago, and this is a re-union. There's also going to be some amazing folks sounding off: Daniel Berard Roumain - on of the main composers at the Harlem Conservatory will be playing violin, and the renowned new generation poet, Carl Hancock Rux will also bless the mike... and there will be various guest appearances from jazz and hip-hop heads and all sorts of "electronica" types for an ILLbient jamdown... so come on by. The event starts at 8 pm, and this will be a blazin' hot situation, so come early... regretfully, due to the amount of attention given to the show, my guestlist is maxed out, but I bet there's still some tix around. If you're in the area, come on by, there'll be lots of folks from different scenes hanging out. The Date: This Saturday coming up - the 13th no less... tix in advance are $13 at the door $15 aight y'all! peace, Paul directions: 74 Leonard Street New York, NY 10013 Located four blocks south of Canal, between Broadway and Church St. You can take the 1 or 9 train to Franklin Street, walk one block south to Leonard, turn left and walk a block & a half to the club.

I sent it to the unmoderated list though cannot see it on the nettime-moderated! many thanks francesca ferguson +++CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS+++ URBAN DRIFT - 2002 OCTOBER 16th-20th 2002 ++symposium +++ nightscapes +++ urbaninterfaces URBAN DRIFT is a network for the development of trans-cultural urban strategies. Over the past 3 years, URBAN DRIFT has formed part of the berlinbeta media festival, as a symposium which offers a platform to cutting-edge architects and designers for whom the city is a medium, and architecture a communicative tool for new urban strategies. ++The network represented by URBAN DRIFT++ Concentrating on urban voids, gaps and residual, or peripheral zones and public spaces, members of URBAN DRIFT act as tacticians for a contemporary urban praxis, developing a discourse within Berlin as one of the primary cities of flux. Our aim is to communicate architecture and urban design to a wider audience, to extend the boundaries of architectural discourse, and to maximise the potential of interdisciplinary practice. We speculate on the need to point the way to contemporary architectural practice and urban design as the steering and managing of processes; on the need to move from formalism to flux management. ++URBAN DRIFT 2002++ This year urban drift is a 5 day event with a rich mix of talks and presentations by day, screenings, thematically based visuals, lectures and sound-scapes by night, along with open offices, in which architecture and design studios engage with the urban drift themes and reveal innovative hybrid spaces and working methods. ++planned location++ The event is set to take place in the Umspannwerk, a 19th century power station in Berlin-Kreuzberg, which has recently been renovated as a location for large-scale cultural events. ++conference++ Mobile cultures and new urban strategies The two-day conference will examine the impact of mobile telecommunications systems and media on architecture and urban design strategies. We will involve artists, architects, designers, theorists and activists in mutual discourse. CONFERENCE THEMES ++ Technical Mobility: Interaction design; the design of flows++ an examination of the impact of interactive and embedded technologies on contemporary design processes in architecture and design in the urban sphere. ++ Mental Mobility: Network urbanism++ an exploration of new coalitions between architects, artists, designers and urban planners. How is the role of the architect and designer adapting to the demands of network practice, and �flux management�, and what tools are being employed to visualize increasingly complex, multi-layered urban processes? ++ Mobility vs. place: Re-humanizing technology and connective urbanism ++ How do architects and designers recreate a sense of place and counteract the speed of the media-driven cityscape? On urban voids, the reanimation of residual urban spaces, and on re-engaging the public in urban design processes. ++ Tactical mobility: effective Strategies for the redevelopment and the repoliticisation of public spaces, �architecture is threat management� � Mark Wigley a discussion amongst architects and media tacticians with relation to urban space. On �flexible response�, on intervening in and changing perceptions of the cityscape. On architecture as a medium. ++call for papers++ We welcome abstracts and short papers for inclusion in the conference and accompanying presentations. We also welcome relevant texts and essays for inclusion in the planned publication and the web site (textzone). Please send abstracts of about 300 words � to: [email protected] +++when+++ initial proposals should reach us by April 30th 2002. ++URBAN DRIFT_THE NIGHT SPACE++ The space will provide a temporary, transformational and flexible situation for artists, architects and designers to present their proposals and investigations within a more informal setting. Communicating an �emotional urbanism� and drawing from the situationist d�rive, Urban Drift�s night space will encompass�talks, readings, slide projections, screenings and urban soundscapes. +++themes+++urban futures � real and virtual, shopping malls and garage settlements, the alchemy of urban narrative, urban nomadism and mobile technologies that foster a restless, edgy urban perspective, psychogeographies, scanning/mapping the city, displacement, and peripheral urban zones, in short, the �inexhaustible inventory of the streets� (Benjamin) ++CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS++ We welcome the following from urbanists ++ video works for screening@umspannwerk, slide shows, proposals for readings, performances, sound-pieces++ ++ posters++ will form a significant part of the night-space� we welcome polemic, statements and images dealing with the above mentioned themes. ++ Formats++ slides 35mm or larger / vhs / svhs / mini-dv / quicktime files / cd-rom / jpeg files / Initial proposals should reach us by e-mail by April 30th 2002 Please mail proposals for participation to: [email protected] Or - post viewing copies of material/slides/related information to Attn: Francesca Ferguson C/o Datenflug Urban Drift Project Space Zehdenickerstr 21 10119 Berlin [email protected] ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 08 Apr 2002 14:10:43 +0200 From: "EMAF" <[email protected]> Subject: European Media Art Festival 2002 Pressemitteilung 5 - ------------------ European Media Art Festival 24.-28. April 2002 Osnabrueck www.emaf.de ////Scroll down for english version//// EMAF. Das steht fuer European Media Art Festival, eines der groessten Medienereignisse weltweit. In diesem Jahr unter dem Motto "New Images - New Stories - Art in Modern Media". Vom 24. bis 28. April 2002 wird Osnabrueck zum wichtigsten Treffpunkt f�r Fachleute aus Kunst, Kultur, Medienwirtschaft und f�r ein gro�es, interessiertes Publikum. Als Forum f�r internationale Medienkunst zeigt das EMAF Filme, Videos, Performances, multimediale Installationen und digitale Medien wie CD-ROM, DVD und Internet. Produktionen international renommierter Kuenstler werden ebenso vertreten sein, wie innovative Arbeiten junger Talente. Darunter viele Welt- Europa- und Deutschland Premieren. Die Programme: - Int. Auswahl: Film und Video - The Virtual Actor - New Asian Cinema - Underground Zero- 9.11. - Ausstellung: "Es. das Wesen der Maschine" - Kongress - Electronic Lounge - Student Forum - Performances //Akkreditierungsformulare unter www.emaf.de //Anmeldeschluss 15.04.02// Begleitend zum Festival zeigen wir vom 24. April bis 20. Mai eine fesselnde Ausstellung unter dem Titel "Es. Das Wesen der Maschine: Robot- und Maschinenkunst von Louis-Philippe Demers & Bill Vorn (Qu�bec/Kanada)" in der Kunsthalle Dominikanerkirche. Den cineastischen Rahmen des Festivals bildet das internationale Film- und Videoprogramm, eine Autorenretrospektive sowie spannende Sonderprogramme. Insgesamt werden ca. 200 Filme und Videos gezeigt. Darunter experimentelle Kurz- und Langfilme, poetische Videosund Videoclips bis hin zu unterhaltsamen Flash-Animationen. Ein Spektrum, das umfassende Einblicke in die zeitgenoessische Kunst- und Medienproduktion vermittelt. Geografischer Schwerpunkt ist die Medienszene in Asien und speziell in China und Korea. Die dortige Filmszene ist im Aufbruch begriffen, nicht zuletzt eine Folge der politischen Liberalisierung und wirtschaftlichen Entwicklung, wodurch eine neue selbstbewusste Kunst- und Kulturszene entsteht. Unser Special beschaeftigt sich mit dem "Virtual Actor". Filme, in denen statt realer Menschen am Computer entstandene Figuren, bzw."menschliche" Akteure in virtuellen Umgebungen agieren. Dabei verschwimmen die Unterschiede zwischen dem Realen und dem Virtuellen zunehmend. Theoretisches dazu gibt es auf dem Kongress zu h�ren. Eine umfangreiche Retrospektive ist dem Kanadier Al Razutis gewidmet. Dessen Oeuvre reicht vom Experimentalfilm bis hin zu medientheoretischen Texten. Seit Anfang der neunziger Jahre arbeitet er zugleich mit 3D-Videos. "Underground Zero" lautet der Titel einer spannenden Film- dokumentation zu den Ereignissen nach dem 11. September, den das EMAF als Europapremiere zeigt. Eine Woche nach den Terroranschlaegen riefen die amerikanischen Filmemacher Jay Rosenblatt und Caveh Zahedi �ber 150 Experimental- und Dokumentarfilmer an, um sie zu bitten, einen Beitrag f�r ein Filmprojekt zu machen, das sich auf dieses Ereignis und seine Nachwirkungen bezieht. Dieses Thema greift, neben vielen weiteren Fragestellungen, auch der Kongress mit dem Beitrag "Urban Collisions: New York" auf. Darin wird die visuelle Darstellung der Geschehnisse nach dem 11. September analysiert. Gemeinsam mit deutschen Universitaeten und Akademien praesentiert das Student Forum aktuelle Produktionen aus aller Welt. Kooperationspartner des EMAF in diesem Jahr sind unter anderem die Bauhaus Uni Weimar, die FH Mainz sowie die FH Hannover. Spannung verspricht die Preisverleihung. So wird im Rahmen des Festivals der Preis der Deutschen Filmkritik f�r die beste experimentelle Film- und Videoarbeit vergeben. Und mit dem OLB-Medienkunstpreis des EMAF werden richtungsweisende Medien- Installationen ausgezeichnet. Sie sind herzlich eingeladen, mit uns ein spannendes und zugleich facettenreiches Programm zu erleben.

As a forum for international media art, the EMAF shows films, videos, performances, multimedia installations and digital media such as CD-ROM, DVD and the Internet. Besides productions by internationally renowned artists, the works of young innovative new talents will also be presented. Including quite a number of world- european- and german premiers, The programmes: - Int. Film and Video selection - The Virtual Actor - New Asian Cinema - Underground Zero - 9.11. - Exhibition: "It. The nature of machine" - congress - Electronic Lounge - Student Forum - Performances //Accreditationforms at: www.emaf.de //until 15.04.02// To accompany the festival, we are showing a gripping exhibition entitled "It. The nature of machine: robotic and machine art by Louis-Philippe Demers & Bill Vorn (Qu�bec/Canada)", from 24 April to 20 May in the art gallery Domenican Church. The cinematic framework of the festival is the international film and video programme, an author retrospective, as well as exciting extra programmes. A total of approximately 200 films and videos will be shown, including experimental short and long films, poetic videos, videoclips and entertaining flash animations. A wide spectrum providing extensive insights into contemporary art and media production. The geographic emphasis is placed on the media scene in Asia, and in China and Korea in particular. The film scene in these countries is currently in the process of changing fast, in part as a consequence of political liberalisation and economic development, leading to the emergence of a new, self-confident art and cultural scene. Our special subject deals with the "Virtual Actor" - films in which computer-animated figures or'human' actors, rather than people, act in a virtual environment. The differences between thereal and the virtual worlds are increasingly blurred. Theoretical aspects related to this subject will be discussed at the congress. An extensive retrospective is dedicated to the Canadian Al Razutis, whose oeuvre range from experimental films to media-theoretical texts. At the beginning of the nineties, he also started working with 3D videos. "Underground Zero" is the title of a tense film documentation on the events following 11 September, which the EMAF will be showing for the first time in Europe. A week after the terrorist attacks, the American film-makers, Jay Rosenblatt and Caveh Zahedi, called over 150 experimental and documentary film-makers, in order to request them to contribute to a film project concerning this event and its aftermath. This issue, among many others, is also dealt with by the congress in the form of thecontribution entitled "Urban Collisions: New York", in which the visual representation of the events after 11 September are analysed. In collaboration with German universities and academies, the Student Forum presents brand-new productions from all over the world. EMAF's cooperative partners this year include the Bauhaus University of Weimar, Mainz University of Applied Sciences, as well as Hannover University of Applied Sciences. The award ceremony promises to be full of suspense. The Deutsche Filmkritik prize for the best experimental film and video oeuvre will be awarded during the festival. The OLB Media Art Prize of the EMAF will be awarded to future-oriented media installations. We warmly invite you to experience an exciting and multifaceted programme with us.

Principle Contact: [email protected] or 518-573-7947 Over the weekend of April 6 and 7, independently organized Whirl-Mart troupes in 10 locations across the U.S. will enter superstores and silently push empty carts for an hour Locations and local contacts: Troy/Albany, NY [email protected] Hudson, NY [email protected] NYC, NY no contact Scranton, PA [email protected] Pittsburgh, PA [email protected] Hadley, MA [email protected] Austin, TX [email protected] Denton, TX [email protected] Bay Area, CA [email protected] Indianola, IA [email protected] Big Business Day consists of a consortium of independently organized actions and performances in protest of the ways in which Big Business is taking over every aspect of peoples� lives, eliminating choice, broadening inequality, and destroying democracy. Whirl-Mart is a worldwide ritual which happens on a monthly basis and will coincide with Big Business Day in April. Participants gather at superstores and form a chain of people who push empty carts through the aisles. A Whirl may seem to be no more than an absurd and chaotic infiltration of peoples� usual shopping space, but it is intended to be a symbolic statement. It is symbolic of the will to resist consumerism and advertising, despite being saturated in it mentally and physically (as one is inside a superstore). As a form of protest, it is unique because of its silent meditative qualities. Of course, there are many reasons to protest the domination superstores. These corporations systematically destroy small business practice, and in doing so, destroy consumers� options. They rely heavily on sweatshop labor. They have been known to wrongfully acquire land. Many have been attacked for poor employee treatment in addition to maintaining an anti-union stance. The participants of Whirl-Mart acknowledge all of these malfunctions of the superstore model. Moreover, we consider the superstore to be a superlative symbol of an ideology founded on values of imperialism, exploitation, and competition, namely capitalism. They oppose these values in our thoughts and in our dreams because they do not represent a sustainable future for the living systems of planet Earth. Through Whirl-Mart, we come together to collectively create a physical and artful manifestation of peaceful resistance. Around the country and the world people are focusing their anti-consumerist energies and their situationist desires on forming Whirl-Mart Consumption Awareness Teams and organizing rituals. These foolish ceremonies will serve as a monthly reminder of overconsumption, encourage people to think about their own rituals of consumption, and offer people the opportunity to express resistance in a unique and satisfying way.

Digitales Urheberrecht Zwischen "Information Sharing" und "Information Control" - Spielr�ume f�r das �ffentliche Interesse an Wissen? Konferenz der Heinrich B�ll Stiftung und des Netzwerks Neue Medien Freitag, 26.April 2002, Berlin, Galerie der Heinrich B�ll Stiftung Mehr Infos unter http://www.netzwerk-neue-medien.org oder www.wissensgesellschaft.org Bis Ende 2002 mu� die Europ�ische Richtlinie zum Urheberrecht in die nationale Gesetzgebung der Mitgliedsl�nder umgesetzt werden. Das ist kein abseitiges Thema, denn hier wird die Infrastruktur der entstehenden Wissensgesellschaft verhandelt und �ber die Richtung der gesellschaftlichen Modernisierung entschieden. Worin besteht das �ffentliche Interesse an der durch das Urheberrecht regulierten Infrastruktur der Wissensgesellschaft? Wird diese die Handlungsspielr�ume der Menschen f�r die �ffentliche Mitteilung geistiger Produkte, f�r kooperative Formen ihrer Erzeugung und ihrer gesellschaftlichen Anerkennung erweitern? Oder verengt sich der Handlungsspielraum, weil die Menschen nur noch als kaufkr�ftige Kunden und als AnbieterInnen von Waren und Dienstleistungen in den Blick kommen? Geht es bei der Sicherung von Anspr�chen auf geistiges Eigentum vorrangig um Modernisierung im Sinne der Durchsetzung einer leistungsf�higen Informationswirtschaft oder bieten sich Chancen f�r individuelle und gesellschaftliche Wohlstandsgewinne auch jenseits des Marktes? weiter unter http://www.wissensgesellschaft.org/themen/wemgehoert/digitaleinfuehrung.html Programm 11.00-12.30 Begr��ung Olga Drossou, Heinrich B�ll Stiftung: Geistiges Eigentum und Nutzerrechte Matthias Berninger, Parl.
