(1) Out of Tokyo
===============================================================
Vol. 55: The Power of Location part 4
by Ozaki Tetsuya
The last weekend was one with a very positive surprise for me.
Following an invitation by email from Higashiizumi Ichiro, I went
to attend the opening party of an event titled "Taping." Since
illustrator Ito Keiji, design unit Namaiki and others were among
the participants I had no doubt it would be an interesting event,
but I ended up being struck with admiration not only of the event
itself but also of the wonderful space it took place in. The venue,
"Tsukiji Manson," is an alternative space in Higashi Kanda. It's a
rather inconveniently located place in 7-8 minutes walking distance
from Akihabara. To call it a "typical hollow area in the middle of
the city" would actually come even closer than just "inconvenient"...

===============================================================
(2) Event Pick of the Week
===============================================================
Hot Korean Film Festival
Even if you're one of those who feel like they've had enough of
Korean movies recently, with a flood of unique films in the program
this festival is one you just have to endure. Recommended also to
advanced fans with a general knowledge of the genre, the festival
offers plenty of 'spicy' delicacies in accordance to its title.
Especially the set of films by Hong Sang Soo including "The Day a
Pig Fell Into the Well," "The Power of Kangwon Province," "Virgin
Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors" and "Turning Gate" is a section all
art film and repertory cinema aficionados should check out. Go and
judge by yourself if what you see tastes hot or rather sweet. Since
this is an event that is organized by film distributors in order to
introduce (and sell) their items, another point of concern is the
number of titles that change hands here.

Hi All,
Deadly Mob (www.deadlymob.org) are about run a <YOuth Out Bush Tour>,
workshoping, researching and discussing the Internet in Remote Central
Centralian Communities. If anyone is interested in finding out more about this
project or participating, email me (jay gibson) at [email protected].
________________________________
dEadly mOb <Youth Out Bush Tour>
The Deadly Mob Youth Out Bush tour aims to provide youths in remote and rural
locations with information on the Internet. One of the aims of the project is to
work with communities to find ways for youths to access IT (Information
Technology), build awareness of the different uses of the internet and promote
the Deadly Mob Internet Cafe - based at the Gap Youth Centre in Alice Springs.
The 'Deadly Mob' team will visit remote and rural locations to work with young
people in conjunction with their community. One of the aims is to assist
communities to establish youth councils, liaise with urban-based youth services
and assist with IT and community development training.
Major elements of this project will be a Tour of Central Australian communities
in the 2nd half of 2003. This tour will visit 16 major communities in Central
and Southern region of the Northern Territory and will have the following 5
facets:
* A presentation =96 using computer/data projector and online resources, to raise
awareness of the Internet =96 what it is, what you can get from it, how you can
use it for your own purposes.
* A multimedia project =96 including teacher=92s packs, that involve young people in
identifying strong mentors on their communities, interviewing them and uploading
multimedia files, stories, video clips and photographs onto the website. We'll
also generate community webpages and identify kids in that community that may
want to take on the respoinsibility of maintaining the site.
* A competition =96 where young people paint broken computer mice, select one to
represent the community and have a digital representation made into an
icon/button on the dEadly mOb website, where each community=92s webpage can be
accessed, viewed and amended.
* Action Research - identifying what computer and communications technology is
already in the community, who has access to it and other related questions.
Following the tour this data will be collated and recommendations made arising
from what is suggested. Other partners indicating interest in the action
research are Central Land Council, Telstra, Waltja Tjutangku Palyapayi (Remote
Family Service) and LATIS (this will be confirmed)
* The concept of a Youth Council will be floated among young people in each
community who show interest in the presentation and in new technology. The
community would then be consulted regarding the recognition of these young
people as those who could represent them in terms of IT and communications
issues and other youth issues they may identify. Mentor Support and IT and other
training could then be provided to these identified young people.

Subject: A Fever Lecture
This is a newly completed .mp3 version of one the technolectures from
"Conductor Number Seventeen." This particular technolecture along with 6
other technolectures will be given Saturday, February 8th, 10pm at
Collective Unconscious in NYC.
The title of the lecture is "A Fever Lecture." The "music" part of the
lecture was re-mixed at 7:12pm on Tuesday, February 4th, 2003. The voice
track was recorded at 8:10pm and quickly deleted at 8:30pm and then a
vocal-preamble was recorded for the piece beginning at 8:42pm. The preamble
was edited once at 9:03pm, eliminating what the artist (me) deemed excessive
use of the of the word "goddamn." At 9:15pm the .aiff file was converted to
an .mp3 file and then promptly uploaded at 9:20pm for public reception at
http://www.restlessculture.net/downloads/fever_lecture.mp3
The piece runs at 10 minutes, 14 seconds. It is an 11.7 MB download. This
time is too long by popular music standards, however "A Fever Lecture" is
not intended as popular music. I have a 56k dial-up connection and the
piece took exactly 23 minutes to upload so 56k users could expect roughly
the same amount of time for the download. I imagine if you have a DSL/cable
connection or better this will be no problem.
Between now and May 2003 I will release 6 additional lectures from
"Conductor Number Seventeen" for download in .mp3 format.
Sincerely,
Cary Peppermint

Subject: cfp Corporal Literacy
CALL FOR PAPERS
Corporal Literacy
Maaike Bleeker: New developments in a variety of disciplines -
ranging from philosophy to medicine to cognitive science - argue for
a revaluation of the body as actively involved in processes of world
making rather than a passive decoding machine. This revaluation of
the body points to the necessity to change our understanding of the
role of the body in processes of perception and meaning making.
Corporal literacy understood as the bodily capacity to read and make
sense also changes the notion of thought and meaning itself, the idea
of what it means to do thinking, to make meaning, to rationalize.
"What is important" write Lakoff and Johnson in their Philosophy in
the Flesh, "is not just that we have bodies and that thought is
somehow embodied. What is important is that the very peculiar nature
of our bodies shapes our very possibilities for conceptualisation and
categorization." Corporal literacy describes these abilities of the
body to perceive, read and make sense. It is a strategic term, with
which we want to make a space for interaction and collaboration
between researchers approaching questions of bodily meaning making
from various backgrounds.

Rob van Kranenburg: In A future world of supersenses, Martin Rantzer
of Ericsson Foresight claims: "New communication senses will be
needed in the future to enable people to absorb the enormous mass of
information with which they are confronted," According to him the
user interfaces we use today to transmit information to our brains
threaten create a real bottleneck for new broadband services. "The
boundaries of what constitutes consumer electronics and computers are
getting blurred," said Gerard J. Kleisterlee, the chief executive of
Royal Philips Electronics. "As we get wireless networking in the
home, everything starts to talk to everything." Implementing digital
connecitivity in an analogue environment without a design for all the
senses , without a concept of corporal literacy, leads to information
overload. In a ubiquitous computing environment the new intelligence
is extelligence, "knowledge and tools that are outside people's
heads" (Stewart and Cohen, 1997) In a ubiquitous computing
environment the user has to be not only textually and visually
literate, both also have corporal literacy, that is an awareness of
extelligence and a working knowledge of all the senses. It is our
claim in staking out a field of corporal literacy that in
contemporary performance and theatrical practice we find an
actualization of (and ways of dealing with) the bottleneck scenarios
that are envisaged by information experts.

/* ======================= *

first public release
* ======================== */
/* ======================= *
INTRODUCING
* ======================== */
Introducing criticalartware, an application/platform for the
discussion and development of contemporary code-based art
theorypractices:
/* ======================= *
ARTWARE
* ======================== */
We are interested in "software" as a construct and context during the
late 1960's/early 1970's and the recent present. We pair these two
art historical moments to analyze the ways in which software
functions as art and art functions as software. We are interested in
early Video Art and it's relationship to current software-art or
artware approaches.
/* ======================= *
V.1.0.1
* ======================== */
Version.1.0.1 of criticalartware intertwines interviews with Kate
Horsfield of the Video Data Bank (www.vdb.org) and the founding
members of Low-Fi (www.low-fi.org.uk). Building discourse between
artists, activists and theorists, criticalartware will offer,
intertwine and juxtapose interviews, experiences, tools, systems and
documents from people who have been instrumental in these moments. In
this manner, criticalartware will become a shared and open system of
community resources.
/* ======================= *
INVITATION
* ======================== */
We invite artists, activists, developers, reverse engineers,
theorists, programmers, contemporary historians, archivists,
codeworkers and cultural agents of all kinds to join us. Share your
perspectives and contribute to discussions and developments in these
developing fields and histories. Responding to your input, our
contributions and your responses, criticalartware will reshape and
map those outcomes, providing a resource for dynamically determining
contemporary histories and exploring current practices.

*REMINDER*
*Descriptions of funded projects from organizations in 2002*
Following its last call for projects within its two programs for
organizations (the EXHIBITION, DISTRIBUTION AND PERFORMANCE PROGRAM FOR
ORGANIZATIONS and the PROGRAM FOR ORGANIZATIONS FROM EMERGING REGIONS, both
of which have now been suspended), the Foundation selected 19 projects, six
from Canada, three from the United Kingdom, two from Columbia, two from the
United States, and one from each of the following countries: Brazil, Ghana,
Latvia, Peru, the Netherlands and Sweden.
You will find a more detailed description of the funded projects and their
participants here: http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/projets/index.html
*Three researchers in residence at the Centre for Research and Documentation
(CR+D) in 2003*
In response to a call for research proposals in its Program of Grants for
Researchers in Residence, the Foundation is happy to announce that three
eminent researchers are coming to Montreal. The three are Mona Jimenez
(United States)
[http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/crd/residences/jimenez.html], Yvonne
Spielman (Germany)
[http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/crd/residences/spielman.html] and
Ricardo Dal Farra (Argentina)
[http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/crd/residences/dalfarra.html]. This
program is open to historians, curators, critics, independent researchers,
artists and scientists, including those working in computer science and
related fields in the humanities and social sciences. The research must be
conducted at the Foundation and focused on its documentation or archive
collections. Nevertheless, a research project may include activities outside
the CR+D (field work, laboratory activities, a workshop) and draw on
resources outside the Foundation. One of the program's aims is to develop
knowledge on the impact of new digital technologies on man and society.
Hence, grant recipients are invited to publish their research findings on
our Web site or place digitized documents on-line after first
contextualizing and interpreting them.
*The 9 EVENINGS OF THEATRE AND ENGINEERING FONDS*
The Foundation is pleased to announce that it has acquired the 9 EVENINGS OF
THEATRE AND ENGINEERING FONDS. In 1965, with help from Robert Rauschenberg,
Billy Kl�ver sought out the expertise of engineers at Bell Laboratories
research centre (Murray Hills, New Jersey, U.S.) to carry out an
interdisciplinary project blending avant-garde theatre, dance and new
technologies. The artists John Cage, Lucinda Childs, �yvind Fahlstr�m, Alex
Hay, Deborah Hay, Steve Paxton, Yvonne Rainer, Robert Rauschenberg, David
Tudor and Robert Whitman each produced an original performance piece.
Engineers were paired with the 10 artists to develop the technical
components used on stage by the participants (dancers, actors, musicians). 9
EVENINGS OF THEATRE AND ENGINEERING was to be presented within the Stockholm
Festival of Art and Technology in 1966. When the festival's American program
was cancelled, Billy Kl�ver moved the performance series to the 69th
Regiment Armory in New York, where it ran from October 13 to 23, 1966.
These archives include in particular 35 and 16 mm films, sound recordings,
photographs, manuscripts, correspondence, technical drawings, and various
artifacts used as performance props.
Please take note that in date of December 2002, the Foundation has only
received part of these archives which include audio-visual documents used in
the making of two documentary films on performances by �yvind Fahlstr�m and
Robert Rauschenberg, respectively entitled Kisses Sweeter than Wine and Open
Score. A more detailled description of these archives will be available on
our Web site during the course of 2003.
************************************************************************
*About the Daniel Langlois Foundation for Art, Science, and Technology*
The Daniel Langlois Foundation's purpose is to further artistic and
scientific knowledge by fostering the meeting of art and science in the
field of technologies. The Foundation seeks to nurture a critical awareness
of technology's implications for human beings and their natural and cultural
environments, and to promote the exploration of aesthetics suited to
evolving human environments. The Centre for Research and Documentation
(CR+D) seeks to document history, artworks and practices associated with
electronic and digital media arts and to make this information available to
researchers in an innovative manner through data communications.
