To what extent does divergence from the ideal image comprise a potential for resistance? The works are conceived of as take-away stickers: The gallery visitors can take the stickers and use them to change or enhance the cityscape or private interiors in any way they like. The stickers infiltrate public and private spaces, thus allowing a reacquisition of power through imagery. Collective JukeBox, initiated by Jerome Joy http://collectivejukebox.org/ http://jukebox.thing.net/ http://homestudio.thing.net/ Collective JukeBox is a free open audio "workspace" which began in 1996. Since the beginning, the project has taken different forms - from audio compilation to audio intervention group, and since '98 to the development of a networked juke-box project with the concept of a "co-op system server" parallel to the actual "sound system" interfaces. The project is continuously evolutional with different public and "work" interfaces "connected" to an autonomous and self-managed database (as an audio repository), and its system of development is quite close to the "groupware." principle. As one goes along, the database will propose an audio content (as today) from the co-op system ("materialized" by the server's engine), a content which can be extended to other mediatized playgrounds: streams of audio patches and modules (with max/msp, jmax, and other audio programmings and open softwares), text streams, and perhaps later image streams. The contents are solely dependent on the participants, identified or unidentified, deliberately and intentionally. The Kuenstlerhaus artists to participate in the Collective JukeBox project are Astrid Nippoldt and Petra Klussmeyer. THE PROGRESS, THE CITY AND WORK Video programme / video library compiled by Florian W�st The video programme THE PROGRESS; THE CITY AND WORK for Bremen comprises a substantive as well as visual reflection on the social transformations of urban spaces and the rationalisation of industrial production. In films by Karel Doing (NL), Sandrine Dryvers (B), Sandra Lahire (UK), John Smith (UK) und Lou Ye (China), the nervous pulse of twentieth-century technological and infrastructural progress is contrasted with glimpses into occupational realities and visionary potentials for action. After the one-time showing at the opening on June 13, the films will remain in the exhibition in the form of a video library and can be viewed by visitors individually. Concept Cultural memory is actually produced by events: by projects and their dissemination, by archives, by publications, etc. It is not until they undergo representation that they can be said to have a final, congealed, static state. Justice is to be done in this project to the fundamental event-boundedness of cultural memory. Compilations and archives are based on networks, connections, rope teams. What is more, to a certain extent they are subject to chance. In their manifestations they make a finished and consolidated impression; the choices and combinations appearing definitive. In various ways, these projects undertake to reveal a new openness of events: The compilations trace back to different initiators, the archives remain incomplete, the actions event-like, the networks open.

Our use of this opportunity, or purpose is threefold: to provide information and create discourse on all the salient issues in our contemporary cultural debate - from sustainability to globalization, from status quo to avant garde; to create and facilitate contemporary media, whether old or new; and to cement our era in history as a period of renaissance and renewal. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 9 Jun 2003 17:46:20 +0200 From: "Galleria A+A" <[email protected]> Subject: 50^ Biennale Press Release MAKROLAB TERRITORY 2003 - CAMPALTO ISLAND, VENICE LAGOON Dreams and = Conflicts - the dictatorship of the spectator - 50th Venice = International Biennale of Art As part of the 50th Venice International Biennale of Art, under the = artistic direction of Aurora Fonda, with the support of Interreg III A = Phare CBC Italy/Slovenia, and in collaboration with Zavod Projekt Atol = Ljubljana and zavod RX:TX Nova Gorica, the Patagonia Art Cultural = Association presents as part of the curator Igor Zabel's section = "Individual Systems" (on the Island of Campalto in Venice lagoon and at = the Corderie), the project of the Slovenian artist Marko Peljhan MAKROLAB mark Ilex A real working laboratory, Makrolab is equipped to support artists, = scientists and tactical media workers, who are supplied with instruments = and means for collective progressive work aimed at developing = wide-ranging research in the fields of telecommunications, climate = research and migrations. Starting with the observation and = identification of migratory flows, with (in the case of the Venetian = laboratory) particular attention given to migrations linked to war zones = and areas of social tension, migration of birds, their navigation skills = and the migration of capital, the primary results will be analysed by = the operators both while the laboratory is functioning and also in the = future. At the same time priority will be given to the exploration of = new sensibilities together with a revision and redefinition of the terms = of the social and individual concentrating on the network-centric = identity. This creative communication traces its origins to individual = forces capable of developing a psycho-scientific entity in a particular = environment, space/time. The Venetian setting - an abandoned island in = the lagoon with a particular ecological and political history - offers = itself as the ideal structure, an inspired vehicle-instrument, to = achieve absolute independence, and reflection on the present entropic = social conditions. Therefore in Makrolab the environment is the primary = factor in the development of a rapid formation of new social, creative, = spiritual and, last but not least, economic concepts based solely on = what is defined as integral individuality. Communication is developed through technologically advanced systems = while energy is supplied through photovoltaics and wind generators. So, = it is not only and exclusively an artistic work with all the = limitations of the term, but more a progressive activity in time and a = projection in space/real time - susceptible to all possible = modifications and enrichments, projecting into a social evolution of the = intermediate environment.

It = is expected to end in 2007, when the structure will be placed = permanently in the Antarctic. From then on Makrolab will be managed by = a new trans-national foundation. The project has already been presented = as a plan in Venice, in June 1999 at the Querini Stampalia Foundation = and, in February 2001 in a lecture, at the Peggy Guggenheim Foundation = as part of the Guggenheim Public project.
