Jahrhundert nichts von seine Vehemenz verloren zu haben scheint. Im Gegenteil erleben wir mit Gentechnik und Gender Studies, Aids und differenzierter gewordenen Evolutionstheorien, mit Internet und der globalen Verfuegbarkeit von Koerpern einen kraeftigen neuen Boom sexuell gepraegter Debatten. uRBAN sEX aTTAC gewaehrt mit Positionen von fast dreissig internationalen Kuenstlern vielseitige kritische wie lustvolle Einblicke in aktuelle Haltungen zu diesem Themenkomplex. uRBAN sEX aTTAC gibt zugleich einen ersten Vorgeschmack auf das uRBAN sEX mEETING, einem Festival rund um's Thema, das 2003 in Berlin stattfindet und die Publikation der K�nstlerzeitschrift 01 SEX begleitet (herausgegeben von Manuel Bonik in Kooperation mit Noritoshi Hirakawa, Elke Krystufek und Mic Mikina). Das uRBAN sEX mEETING soll im lockeren Kontext einer k�nstlerischen Convention in Theorie und (k�nstlerischer) Praxis Fragen von Urbanit�t und Sexualit�t behandeln, dabei aber auch z.B. den kommerziellen Aspekt nicht ausblenden. Es geht um Fragestellungen zu Diskursen und Modellen, zu wahren und sozialen Geschlechtern und zur �sthetik von sexuell motivierten Style- und Bilder-Codes. Was sind Identit�ten und was Verschiebungen in der mentalen Produktion, wo sind dem unersaettlichen CloseUp der Pornografie Grenzen gesetzt, wo endet Aufkl�rung und wo beginnt ihre Oszoenitaet? Was will und braucht ein moderner und modernisierter Cyborg-Koerper, waehrend er bis in die letzten Intimitaeten kommerziell verwertet wird und man in den Genlabors an seiner Neugestaltung arbeitet? Inwiefern bieten Mode, Design und Science Fiction neben Rhythmen, Revivals und postkolonialen Denkmodellen, Ansaetze zu generativen sozialen Systemen? Dass Sex uns im Laufe der Jahrhunderte wichtiger geworden ist als unsere Seele, wichtiger beinahe als unser Leben, schreibt Michel Foucault in seinem Werk >Sexualitaet und Wahrheit<. - Das Aufkommen von Techno-Musik und -Kultur Ende der 80er Jahre fuer eine neue Rolle des Koerperlichen. Der Koerper wurde einer reflexiv-kritischen Haltung >des Kopfes< entgegengestellt, die (sexuelle) Ekstase - und erlebte sie mancher durch Wellness Hoechstleistungssport - - den Aporien der Philosophie. Dieser Trend verstaerkte sich durch die Verbreitung des Internets. Durch den leichten www-Zugriff auf Pornographie, die noch heute locker ein Drittel des Netz-Traffics ausmacht, aber auch ueber Newsgroups, Chats und Muds erfuhren weite Bevoelkerungskreise einen massiven Schub von sexueller >Aufklaerung<. In sexueller Hinsicht kann heute jeder alles >wissen< oder zumindest schon mal gesehen haben, Auch im Fernsehen erscheinen Ruf-mich-an!-Stunden als ultima ratio des abendlichen Programms. Teilnehmer von Talk-Shows lassen sich in einem Ma�e ueber sexuelle Praktiken, Neigungen, Perversionen etc. aus, das noch vor wenigen Jahren undenkbar gewesen w�re. So lange Verfemtes wie Sado-Masochismus scheint inzwischen fast schon eine Art Volkssport geworden. Wie Michel Foucault in >Sexualitaet und Wahrheit< darstellt, hat sich der sexuelle Bekenntniszwang allmaehlich aus den Beichtstuehlen des Mittelalters in immer groessere Oeffentlichkeiten der Moderne entwickelt. Foucault hat nicht mehr miterlebt, wie sehr moderne Medien diesen Trend potenziert und dabei u.a. auch die jahrhundertelange Sexualkontrolle durch religioese Autorit�ten (und vielleicht auch diese selbst) relativiert haben. In den Staedten treffen sich die sexuell Aufgekl�rten des 21. Jahrhunderts. Singles praegen das Bild, in den entwickelten Industrienationen sind Kinder selten geworden und treten oft genug nur noch als Fetisch politischer Diskussionen auf. In den Staedten erleben wir die Aufl�sung der Familie, aber auch das Entstehen neuer Formen des Zusammenlebens. In Berlin, wo die uRBAN sEX aTTAC stattfindet, gibt es hunderte von >Freiraeumen<, Galerien, Clubs, Bars, private Haushalte, WGs. Kinos und Theater, Blumenlaeden, kryptische Modeboutiquen, Friseursalons und irgendwelche Mischungen aus all diesen. Eine Jeunesse ist endlich doree geworden, insofern sie jenseits traditioneller Ehstands-Zwaenge Jahrzehnte Zeit hat, sexuelle Erfahrungen zu machen. Die uRBAN sEX aTTAC ist sich ihrer eurozentrischen Sichtweise durchaus bewusst und weiss, dass Bumsbomber nach Asien und das - durchaus auch oekonomisch bedingte - Sterben von Millionen Bewohnern der Dritten Welt an Aids Sex zu einem dringenden globalen Thema machen, Manuel Bonik / Mic Mikina, Berlin July 2002 [email protected] [email protected] http://travellab.net/u_s_a_zero.html ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 13 Jul 2002 21:48:11 +1000 From: Dave/Cherry <[email protected]> Subject: Invitation to Book Launch You are invited to attend a book launch at the NSW State Parliament, Macquarie Street, Sydney, at 1:30pm Tuesday, 16 July, in the Jubilee Room. The book is "The Worst of Woomera", a 48-page collection of stories from detainees at the Woomera Detention Centre, and it is by Dave and Cherry McKay. It covers developments at the centre between the Easter breakout, and the most recent breakout on June 28. Details from the press release appear below. If you are hoping to attend, could you let me know by email asap, so we will know how many people to plan for. Your presence and support would be greatly appreciated. Dave McKay Dear Guy, Please feel free to alter, edit, cut, add, or delete as you see fit. IMPORTANT: Arthur IS a Democrat, isn't he? Please change the text, with apologies from me, if I am wrong. Dave McKay PRESS RELEASE: "Worst of Woomera" Book Launching Personal profiles of some thirty asylum seekers detained at the "Immigration Reception and Processing Centre" in Woomera, South Australia, are featured in a 48-page booklet being launched at the NSW State Parliament, Macquarie Street, Sydney, at 1:30pm on Tuesday, July 16, in the Jubilee Room. The book launching has been arranged by Democrat MP, Dr. Arthur Chesterfield Evans, a long-time friend of the author, Dave McKay, and Dave's wife, Cherry, who gathered most of the information for the book. The books are being marketed directly on a donation basis, with supporters giving "whatever they can afford". Even before the first print run of 20,000 copies came off the press on Friday, 12 July, the authors had received requests for 21,000 copies from refugee activists around Australia, including an order for 100 copies to be sent by express post to Christmas Island. A second order for an additional 20,000 copies has already been made, and should be available in a fortnight. Any profits from the sale of the booklet will go toward the work of the Refugee Embassy, in Woomera, which was co-founded by Dave McKay and Ross Parry, both Quakers from the Newcastle area. "The Worst of Woomera" chronicles attempts by the Refugee Embassy to establish contact between detainees and members of the general public, in an effort to overcome misconceptions, and to put a human face to the people housed there. The text, interspersed with personal profiles, covers events from the Good Friday breakout earlier this year, to the hunger-strike breakout on June 28th. This is the first such collection of case histories to be made available to the public. Names have been changed, but details about individual detainees are genuine. Lawyers representing some of the people in the book are fearful that the Department of Immigration may give prejudicial treatment to people featured in the book, as punishment for letting their stories be heard. However, because most of these people have exhausted all appeals anyway, they have given permission for their stories to be told. "Change will not come until average Australians, and that includes most of our politicians, look into the eyes and hearts of the people our Government has been trying so hard to villify," said Dave McKay. "This book aims to do exactly that."

Juli 2002, 21 Uhr "zgomo-live" Herwig Weiser Programmierung: Albert Bleckman Konzert mit F.X. Randomiz und Joseph Suchy 'zgomo live' - ein improvisierter Abend unter freiem Himmel, veranstaltet vom Edith-Ru�-Haus f�r Medienkunst. Herwig Weiser f�hrt sein "z-mobil" System im Rahmen der Ausstellung 'Magische Maschinen' vor. Anschlie�end spielen F.X. Randomiz und Joseph Suchy, Musiker aus der K�lner Elektronik-Szene, die mit einem Mix aus "experimentellem Pop" und "heavy metal plus free jazz" f�r Laptop und E-Gitarre ihr neues Sommerprogramm 2002 pr�sentieren. Der �sterr. K�nstler Herwig Weiser und der Programmierer Albert Bleckman erregten mit ihren installativen Arbeiten internationale Aufmerksamkeit und gewannen Preise in Linz und Berlin. F.X. Randomiz ist Klangforscher aus K�ln und geh�rt zur Szene um das Sonig-Label und den A-Musik-Laden. Joseph Suchy ist als Gitarrist kompromissloser Improvisator und kongenialer Erbe des Post-Jimi-Hendrix-Kontinuums. ************** Friday, 19 July 2002, 9 pm "zgomo-live" Oldenburger Kultursommer Herwig Weiser Programming: Albert Bleckman Concert: F.X. Randomiz und Joseph Suchy The "zgomo-live" event at the Edith Russ Site for Media Art in Oldenburg is a presentation of Herwig Weiser's "z-mobil" system as part of the exhibition 'Magical Machines', followed by a concert by F.X. Randomiz and Joseph Suchy. Both musicians have emerged out of Cologne's electronic scene. Their new programm for the summer of 2002 is sometimes described as "experimental pop" or even "heavy metal plus free jazz". In any case, Randomiz' laptop music and Suchy's E-guitar promises to be an improvised evening under the night sky. The austrian artist Herwig Weiser and the programmer Albert Bleckman have won international recognition for their installations and prizes in Linz and Berlin. F.X. Randomiz researches sound in Cologne and is a member of the scene around the Sonig label and the A-Musik store. Joseph Suchy is a non-compromising, improvising guitarist and a congenial heir of the post-Jimi-Hendrix continuum.

This year the gallery is curated by Mez, whose pioneering net.language 'mezangelle' has intrigued readers online since the early 90s. In her introduction to this selection of works chosen specifically for the web, Mez explains why codework can only be fully experienced in a non-physical space . . . There have been extensive [and exhaustive] efforts made by the technologically-inclined to use the Internet as a vehicle for the gestation and manifestation of art-oriented practices. However, in a disappointing truncated space and time, many of the artistic potentialities of this [reticulation] technology have crystallized around conventional lines, with practitioners progressing along allegedly _fresh_ artistic trajectories which, in actuality, are still dependent on derivative templates. These templates have been predicated on the linear, on traditional unitary publishing models and the structural/physical nature of the plastic arts. Thankfully, not all creators engulfed in net dynamics are determined to expressively seep back into the quagmire of historically [and academically] ratified/reiterative formats and stylistics. Some still perceive [and participate in] the network via a tapestry of deformation/communication potentials. These entities [as they cannot always be adequately defined in a geophysical, visceral sense] shift & pulse data via infinite network variations. These _artists_ [or net/code.workers] revel in the fabric of connection modes and core elements that represent the actualities of the net in all its functional glory. The code/net.workers selected for inclusion here engage in production of [artistic] output that employs and mirrors the very blueprinted mechanisms of the net itself. Net.workers such as solipsis, gashgirl/doll yoko, a u t u m n - f r e q u e n c y, alan sondheim, + lo_y + and indecoress are represented here by works that evoke/employ the net[work] for its structural/data packaging and dispersal possibilities. These works have been electronically hunted-&-gathered from email lists, [we]blogs and MOOs. They primarily reside in unconventional display states that are sheared from regular representation models; they are mostly accessible via search-engines, in mailing list archives, in blogs, or on hard-drives. In short, these works fundamentally exist in echos and [band]widths of a projected space. They are not designed to concretely reflect economic, narrative, linear, or even [traditional] artistic value. Their creators are more reflective in relation to the nodes/strands inherent in network dissemination, and incorporate net conventions and multivalencies in order to fabricate works that conflate informational/contextual manipulation [eg via infofictionalised texts/personas via various email lists]. The selected code.worker projects are also concerned with the warping of computer language/systems into referential, aesthetic or conceptual compositions that are replicated/sequenced in burgeoning incremental waves, resulting in the weave & flow of accented and disruptive code-emulations. Some are web-based, some are post-game [mangled] patches, and some are caught in net-based circulation and avatar adoption[s]. JODI, joe keenan, Integer/Netochka Nezvanova, ted warnell, and brian lennon rewrite the underlying notion[s] of code as functional/accessible via blatant infrastructural rewiring that encourages the redirection of an absorbers [ie interactors] typical meaning gaze/gauge. Of course, the separation of the exhibited works into the aforementioned categories [code.work + net.work] is a highly artificial [curatorially-induced] act. There are considerable semantic slidings/interchanges involved here, shifting signifiers and false dichotomies resulting from the notion that conferences [such as Incubation 2] may be devoted to the display/analysis of _all things net_, but have as their manifest presentation-interface a dependency on physical platforms that acts to negate the contextual nuances of the network. This reliance on channeling the discussion of works [that are indigenous to the network] through physical, realtime, flesh_ presenters acts to trap the information into culturally-negotiable/manageable assimilation packets. The dataflow is rigid here, compartmentalized and frozen. The emphasis on this physical steerage of data revokes the pliability of these projects, and leaves the code/net.work[ers] floating in a correspondingly amputated reality/limboesque strata-zone. For this I must apologize, and suggest - as a workable antidote - a thorough search-immersion of all things net/code.work oriented. . . .... ..... net.wurker][mez][ ./. www.hotkey.net.au/~netwurker . . .... ..... collapsing adj[thr]usting.txt . . cur.][o][va.ture www.cddc.vt.edu/host/netwurker/ http://www.macros-center.ru/read_me/inexen.htm#re .... . .??? ....... ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 14 Jul 2002 08:17:40 +0000 From: "ph2o arte" <[email protected]> Subject: INNESTO-GREFFE-GRAFT (art-happening) INNESTO-GREFFE-GRAFT (Ita � fra � eng) (ita) Happening nel Parco Lei � gentilmente invitata all� happening nel Parco delle Alpi Marittime, per la performance �Innesto � Greffe � Graf� il prossimo 7 Settembre 2002.

The �glitch� is a point of software collapse, when unexpected sound guides the musical process; �granular� is a description for the post-dub digital synthesis of micro-peels of sound, slivers of echoes and traces of frequencies and harmonies. Prepare to feel sound and grasp its subtleties in all its silences and pockets of intensity as the Video-In is subjected to a proper full spectrum sound system. Vancouver grabs ahold of the future and shocks it to life: Kafka awakes to find his cockroach genitals a digital bleep, a becoming-instrument waiting to be played by the lyres of wind and wire. [Joshua Kit Clayton. San Francisco. Orthlorng Musork.] Come prepared for an immersive audio-visual experience featuring the first live performance in over a year from internationally respected Orthlorng Musork label innovator and micro-dub pioneer Joshua Kit Clayton from San Francisco. Releasing minimal dub-techno masterpieces since the early �90s, Kit Clayton has become the focal point for a San Francisco sound that includes esteemed colleagues Sutekh, Safety Scissors, Blechtum from Blechdom, Twerk, and Kid606. Joshua has work on many labels including Pole�s ~scape, Sutekh�s Context, Background, Vertical Form, Cytrax, Delay, Mille Plateaux, Carpark, Pthalo, Plug Research, Parallel, Proptronix, and Caipirinha, as well as working for Max/MSP�s parent company Cycling �74. The New Forms Festival is proud to provide a full listening experience for Joshua�s music. A Dirty Quebecois at heart, Joshua collects his trash at http://www.musork.com/o_jkc.html <http://www.musork.com/o_jkc.html> [Sue Costabile. San Francisco. Orthlorng Musork.] Joining Kit Clayton will be label co-founder and video artist Sue Costabile in a rare live collaborative audio-visual performance. As well as running Orthlorng Musork, whose roster includes such notable artists as Timeblind aka Chris Sattinger, AGF, Blechtum from Blechdom, and Stephen Mathieu, Sue creates video art visuals for Joshua�s music. Their esoteric and exploratory live performances are the stuff of memory. The real woman behind the musork, Sue sets her sights at www.musork.com <http://www.musork.com/> [Mitchell Akiyama. Montreal. Intr_version.] >From Montreal, the NFF welcomes intr_version label founder and composer of melancholic and moody minimally textured techno Mitchell Akiyama in his first live west coast performance. Mitchell has been busy in the Montreal scene, founding his label intr_version and recording work for Alien 8, Raster-Noton, Background, spar.ks, Instinct, and Substractif. Along with Substractif labelmate Tim Hecker and Alien8 cohort Tomas Jirku, Mitchell is known for recombinating the tension of minimal techno and its spaces of silence with the emotional gridwork of post-digital explorative electronic. Secretly singing to powerlines, Mitchell is planted at www.intr-version.com <http://www.intr-version.com/> and [Ben Nevile. Victoria.] Bringing the beats, Victoria�s Ben Nevile returns for a live minimal house hoe-down spanning his work on such labels as Context, Mosaic, Telegraph, Nordic Trax, Traum, and C74. Nevile�s quirky yet laidback take on minimal micro-house with a dub influence reflects his west-coast lifestyle and has quickly gained him recognition at such festivals as Mutek 2002 and Refrains 2001. Another code-crunching employee of Cycling �74, Ben uses an inventive and original Max software environment which he manipulates with a self-programmed MIDI joystick, setting him apart in the world of laptop performers as a wizard of technology and synthesized soul. A closet Rush fan, Ben�s diary is at www.saoul.com <http://www.saoul.com/> [tobias.

Despite his thinky-thinky academic pandering, which he will display with panache at the NFF panels [link here], tobias has a deep love for the carnal pleasures of frequency foreplay. There�s no talking here: you�ll find yourself on the floor and sweaty with your legs moving to an unholy rhythm. And keep your ears peeled: no doubt some live tunes will find themselves dropped into the mix straight from the studio smoke. Situationist or Surrealist? Decide for yourself at www.shrumtribe.com <http://www.shrumtribe.com/> - --The Performance. This will be a performance and a body shaking experience. Please note that during the performances of Mitchell Akiyama and Joshua Kit Clayton and Sue Costabile there will be no in/out privileges. It�s like the opera: be on time, as this is a dedicated and intense sonic environment. After the tension, hang on as the ecstatic release of Ben Nevile and tobias launch into the rhythmic realms of micro-house and minimal techno for a thumping tribute to the spirits of yesteryear. - --Joshua Kit Clayton and Sue Costabile. "Granular Electronic Artist Joshua Kit Clayton to debut new interactive audio-visual technology at New Forms Festival" Experimental electronic music pioneer Joshua Kit Clayton will be debuting his new, interactive audio-visual technology at the Friday, August 2nd "glitch & granular" night at the New Forms Festival. Clayton is an internationally renowned music software programmer who constructs "patches" for the modular audio-visual software, Max/MSP, which forms the basis for his compositional and performance process. The debut performance is called "Interruption," and uses an advanced audio-visual interface to interpret a live-filmed image of Joshua's and label co-partner Sue Costabile's faces while at the same time recording their spoken and bodily sounds. The image and audio data is then interpreted by Clayton's self-programmed Max/MSP "patch" to mix with a pre-progammed series of abstract, fantasy images and sounds. The reinterpreted and remixed images and audio will then be projected onto a screen and broadcast out the soundsystem in real-time. This is the international debut of this cutting-edge performance. [Artist's Statement: "Interruption" by Joshua Kit Clayton & Sue Costabile] "Susan and I will be on stage lying down on either tables or beds. Above our heads will be a light, a video camera, and a microphone. We will be facing upwards towards the cameras which will be zoomed close on our faces. Our audio and video signal will each be sent to a computer to determine how our audio and video will interrupt and or be interrupted by a separate world of audio/video. These audio/video streams will be merged and sent to the projector which will project the image on a screen behind us. The video of our faces will be concrete/real, while the other audio/video streams will be abstract/fantasy. There will be interplay between reality/fantasy for each performer, as well as between performers. [WHAT IS BEN NEVILE DOING WITH A LAPTOP AND A JOYSTICK?] "a guy named Adam Schabtach who works for C74 has written an object called "insprock" that gives easy access to USB gaming devices in Max. the patch I use polls the joystick every 10 milliseconds or so. if there has been a change in status - ie, it is tilted differently, or I've pressed or released a button - the data for that change comes out of this object as raw numbers. so for instance, the horizontal and vertical tilts come out as numbers between 0 and 65535. my max patch analyses this gesture data and responds according to a set of rules I've programmed in. so in short, the joystick gets plugged right into the computer's USB port and sends numbers directly into the max environment. MIDI is out of the picture, although if you wanted you could use Max to generate MIDI in response to the joystick's movements. I did something like that this past weekend with Cobblestone Jazz." - --The Art-Space. Vancouver�s Olo J. Milkman of the Product of Neglect Art Collective will treat the eyes to the continuing series of Ample Lamps and Reverse-Line slides featured at previous <ST> events and as seen at Wazubeez and the Mojo Dojo. Olo will be creating metamorphic line-work specifically for the New Forms Festival.
