***********************************

single artist:
Calin Man from Arad/Romania,
an this outstanding net artist who combines artistic expression and
statements with substantial power, technological activity and excellence in
sustained work.

and consists of three parts:

1. solo presentatation of Calin Man, winner of JavaArtist of the Year Award,
2. finalists of the competition
3. exhibition out of concurrence, entitled "MANDALA"

************************************

introduction:
The second year's program of JavaMuseum, eg "2nd of Java series"
has a special subject during one running year (Spring 2002-Spring 2003),
entitled:
"Fundamental Patterns - Peripheral Basics".
After the first event in July, entitled "Actual Positions of Italian
Netart",
the main show of of the year in the framework of "2nd of Java series"
represents
"Fundamental Patterns - Peripheral Basics"
discussing and confronting artistic and philosophical positions of
Western and Eastern culture:

What are the fundamental patterns of contemporary living and art,
what kind of peripheral basics are defining them?
What are the fundamental patterns of the virtual
environment of Internet? Mere simulation?
Or rather something profoundly new?
In which way changed patterns and the peripheral
basics from physical to virtual level?
How do they influence sensual and intellectual perception ?

The special interactive exhibition interface created by
Agricola de Cologne, media artist operating from Cologne/Germany
and curator of this show
takes all the aspects and composes them to a kind of Western "mandala",
interlinking the material and spiritual, a way which is taken by the
competition finalists in different individual ways:
The answers are not clear yet as the way is the goal.

===============================================================
(1) Tokyo Editors' Diary
===============================================================

Nakanishi Daisuke ("Little More") vol. 004

This Wednesday I'm having a succession of visitors, and the third
one I'm seeing today is Yoshimura Chiaki from Asahi Shimbun's
department of arts and sciences. We're talking about the late
non-fiction author Ida Makiko, and especially about her early
poetry days, which wasn't known much until after her death.
I guess every time I'll meet Yoshimura-san in the future our talk
will be about Ida-san. Today's last meeting is with stylist Nimura
Takeshi, and I get a hint at the steady importance of Vincent Gallo.
Before the last train leaves Shibya station I have a couple minutes
time to hop into Tsutaya and buy the recent "Guitar Magazine" which
a special feature on Yamashita Tatsuro, and Char's "Sacred Hills"
album.

(2) Interview
===============================================================

Caught live in Japan, October 2002: Andrew Pekler

With his "Station to Station" album, released in summer 2002,
Andrew Pekler attracted worldwide attention by adding a new,
jazzy colour to the ~Scape label sound palette. RT met Andrew
during his first Japan tour on which he was brought along by
label boss, Japan-experienced Pole a.k.a. Stefan Betke.
Before his Tokyo set he introduced to us the stations that led
him to his current place of residence, Berlin, as well as his
musical philosophy and unique working style.

(3) Event Pick of the Week
===============================================================

Don't Think Just Shoot

Totally untouched by the spreading of the digital camera and the
improving performance of conventional cameras, Russia-made budget
camera "Lomo" keeps fascinating people around the world with its
unique charme, having written "analog" all over it. This event is
to celebrate the publishing of a book that contains 2,739 (!) Lomo
shots gathered from all corners of the globe. For this occasion
director Fabian Monheim has come over from London, inviting everybody
interested to enjoy without too much thinking the camera's inimitable
colorations and shadings that create such an exquisite feel of space.

Subject: Steve Mann documentary

(This Canadian documentary ran on the Australian SBS channel last week. It's
really good. For those interested in wearcomp guru Steve Mann... /geert)

http://cbc.ca/cyberman/
http://cbc.ca/cyberman/AllNEW.htm

Steve Mann is a Toronto-based inventor, university teacher and cyborg. His
wearable computer technology has made him "all human with machine-extended
parts."

THE NATURE OF THINGS with David Suzuki presents Cyberman, a look at Canada's
original cyborg.

"In cyberspace there are no borders. What I do is allow people to get inside
my head and put themselves in my shoes and see the world from my
perspective," said Mann. Through his "Eye-Tap" sunglasses, wearable
computers and recording devices, viewers literally see the world through his
eyes.

This cyber-genre film takes documentary filmmaking to a new level.  The
filmmakers were forced to come to terms with the fact that the subject they
were filming was in fact filming them!  This multi-media film was shot on
various formats, including Super 16, Mini DV and black and white
photography, and includes footage from Steve Mann's patented "Eye-Tap" video
and "dusting" photography.

Producer Michael Allder commented, "Cyberman is set not in some distant,
unrealized world, but in the present. Steve lives in a universe where
information is mainlined into memory, where he daily records his encounters
with the outer world, his students, even his wife.  He believes he is the
face of the future, but it is a future that many will find unsettling."

Since its premiere at the Rotterdam International Film Festival 2001, the
film version of

Cyberman has been invited to screen at festivals around the world.  Mann has
also recently published his second book entitled, Cyborg, a Random House
publication.

Cyberman reunites the creative team of the award-winning National Film Board
cult-hit feature, Project Grizzly, directed by Peter Lynch, written by James
Heer and produced by Michael Allder, who is also executive producer of THE
NATURE OF THINGS.

Andolan

Most of the important discourses through 'national'  newspapers,
magazines,serious or semi-serious journals are either carried out in
Metropolitan-mostly English speaking circles, or the 'local', 'vernacular'
discourses are margnalized. This results in a paradox, projecting -
unwarrantedly and without any basis-  the opinion of only the elite as the
opinion of 'Indian' people. We in 'Andolan' and National Alliance of
People's Movements are trying to reclaim the territory of the 'national
discourse', where the discourses of the people and organic 
intellectuals/experts and journalists related with the ground situation
and the people become the opinion of India.

Andolan has been focusing on the reporting, analysis and debate on such
important issues of alternative development and politics in national and
international arena every month. From political-social philosophy,
ideology, movements, development politics, economy, arts, books and other
vignettes of life- Andolan is interested in all these aspects. Along with
articles, we specialize in reporting and news analysis of the important
happenings, issues of people's movements all over India. We appeal the

fAf_15: 15th ANNIVERSARY CDROM
This month marks the completion of one of faf biggest anniversary events - 
the release of faf_15, presenting a record of our 15 year history in the 
field of art, science and technology communications. You will find 
exclusively on faf_15:
:: the travelling screening program, 'fineArt in Motion' showcasing 14 
works from young and emerging artists from around the world;

:: indepth discussions about all things fAf with past and present editors, 
Ray Lauzzana, Roger Malina, Annick Buread, Judy Malloy, Paul Brown, Nisar 
Keshvani and Linda Carroli.

The CD will prove to be a valuable resource for researchers, artists, 
writers and activists in the new media, science and technology fields 
together with broadening the audience of faf into worldwide areas of where 
low speed connections are predominant.  More specifically, we plan to 
distribute the cdrom to screen resource centres, arts and artist groups, 
new media events and libraries worldwide to enhance access in those hard to 
reach areas. To obtain a copy, email fAf at [email protected] with your
