Subject: _Radio Recombo_
Re:combo invites you to join a jam-session using the software _Radio Re:combo_:
http://radio.recombo.art.br
You can go to the site, make some loops, send this loops to the other
visitants-musicians through the web.
The software developed by the Re:combo, is a part of *Re:combining The
Territory*, a multimedia project of collaborative sound + vision
production. The experience mix audiovisual material sent by collaborators
to RE:COMBO (<http://www.recombo.art.br/>www.recombo.art.br) with the
possibilities of a composing multi-user software.
The experience is a part of Transmidia project, created by the Instituto
Cultural Itau, (S�o Paulo, BRAZIL), during the "Transmidia" esposition (it
runs till September 21) all the music made with the software will be played
on site at the Re:combo installation at the Instituto Cultural Itau.
http://radio.recombo.art.br
Re:combo is a Brazilian-based but now worldwide collective of "musicians,
software engineers, DJs, professors, journalists and computer geeks," who
combine live events, peer-to-peer networking, and music resampling as our
medium.
The whole basis for the experience is intellectual generosity and open
environment for people to work on a project without being tied to any kind
of contract or anything, we open the content that re:combo produces so
people can get the content themselves change it and recombine it and do
different things and so we expect to get this back and produce new things
again and so it improves.
Working with Baktin's dialogical concepts, and known that "the word (and
other signs) are interindividual "besides the criative functions of the
author "the listener has his own rights on the creation", the goal is to
make this technologically explicit and transparent for the public.
Also, as a basic concept, the Translocation is presented, term created by
Tetsuo Kogawa, to define a relation we focus to the "local"(instead of the
global), thinking at the same time as its propagation through the net:
*Think locally, act globally

Hypertext Readings at ACM Hypertext 03
- --------------------------------------
in Nottingham, Aug. 26-30 2003
- --------------------------------------
The Hypertext Readings at the annual ACM Hypertext conferences are a
forum for artists in the digital medium to present recent works. The
Exhibition presents 5 selected works of which one is the
collaborative "The Famous Sound of Absolute Wreaders" by Johannes
Auer, Reinhard D�hl, Sylvia Egger, Oliver Gassner, Martina Kieninger
and Beat Suter [ http://kunstradio.cyberfiction.ch ].
"For this year's Readings we invited artists to submit text-based
(not necessarily text-only) and navigatable works of art that
emphasize textual aspects, linkage, interactive interfaces, audio, or
user-centered conventions, works that can be performed with the
audience's interaction, rather than read by the author alone."
The exhibition offers background information on the authors and their
works and will serve as a permanent documentary of the 2003 Hypertext

Subject: M/C: 'fibre' issue now available
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - 31 August 2003
M/C - Media and Culture
is proud to present issue four in volume six of the award-winning
M/C Journal
http://journal.media-culture.org.au/
'fibre' - a collaboration with :: fibreculture ::
Fibre is the tension between material and abstract. It names a tissue
composed of threads, but it also denotes 'roughage' - something that can't
be broken down any further - a dietary connotation for both body and mind;
and a moral association - integrity or backbone. Fibre is where flows meet
resistance.
The strength and properties of invisible connections will determine the
cohesion or resistance of fibre, and its wider fabrics - economic, social,
cultural. The connective tissue rearranges geographies, re-wiring the
categories of urban and regional, of global and local. Information reaches
the speed of light - but it meets resistance nonetheless, in the fibre and
the fabric.
As the filaments are invested with value they also become a new political
terrain to be fought over, where control, ownership, and dominance are up
for grabs. Fibre is a fulcrum of post-industrial economic change, where
public utility gives way to private corporation, where citizen is re-cast
as shareholder, customer, end-user. And yet, only 3% of global network
capacity is being used. In 'dark fibre' lies the potential energy of
networked multitudes.
The articles in this issue address a wide range of these issues. We invite
you to explore the views of our contributors!
Feature Article
"Broadband"
In this article, Gerard Goggin looks at broadband networks in Australia and
their present state of uneven development. He considers how broadband is
framed in contemporary policy debates, and argues for the urgency of a
radical rethinking in this area.
Articles
"The Geography of Cyberspace"
Emy Tseng & Kyle Eischen argue that the structure of virtual space is a
product of the Internet's geography and technology. Debates around the
nature of the virtual often leave out this connection to "fibre", to where
and how we are physically linked to each other. Rather than signaling the
"end of geography", the Internet reinforces its importance with "real
world" physical and logical constraints shaping the geography of
cyberspace. To contest the nature of the virtual world requires
understanding and contesting the nature of the Internet's architecture in
the physical world.
"When Fibre Meets Fibre"
A wide range of ritual practices - as witnessed in the secular and non-
secular magic and mysticism that is endemic to contemporary science
fiction, in war-chalking, in new forms of compulsion, neurosis and
addiction, or just in the everyday use of networked technologies - have
accompanied the 'rise of the network society'. Such ritual practices are
often only seen as interesting diversions or attachments to the main social
issues involved in networking. Yet many of these ritual activities suggest
complex ritual engagements with the network. What happens when we consider
these 'diversions' as central to the ongoing dynamic of networks -
technical and social, asks Andrew Murphie.
"The Infrastructural-Political: Forms of Attachment and Sites of
Differentiation"
To analyse critically contemporary communications and network technologies,
and to understand how they become more (or less!) political, we need to
learn about the forms of attachment, the kinds of 'stickiness', and the
'velcro effects' which block or negate as well as enable contemporary
infrastructural politics. In this tableau, the heuristic fiction comes from
psychotherapy. Imagine the cultural/new media/critical researcher as the
analyst. Adrian Mackenzie that the forms of attachment to be analysed
include the analyst's own as she/he comes into relation with changing
infrastructural regimes.
"Resistances of Gender"
Jonathan Marshall writes that online life is embedded within the complexes,
organisations, power ratios, and conceptualisations of offline life. The
ambiguities of the interaction between online and offline - the testing and
questioning, asking and affirming of their match - make a vital part of
their current phenomenology. One factor which seems to exert resistance -
some form of implacability - however unexpectedly, is that of gender...
"Idiotypic Networks, Normative Networks"
Network thinking is rapidly becoming a pseudo-paradigm in contemporary
techno-culture. Addressing the genealogies of the network concept and
making links between different discursive fields so as to manifest their
biopolitical implications is a crucial analytic task. This paper by Andrew
Goffey focusses on the way in which the idea of a network has been taken up
in immunology, as a way of understanding the individuation of biological
identities, and sketches out an assessment of its political implications.
"A Spam Scam Slam"
Grayson Cooke's piece is a satirical, vaguely Nietzschean meditation on the
ironies and absurdities of email spam.
"Something Third, Other"
Petra Gemeinboeck notes that in tele-immersive virtual environments, the
virtual place doesn't seem able to break away from its physical anchorage,
and the cybernetic transfer of our Self seems to be somewhat uncanny. The
most exciting aspect for remote users is commonly the fact that they are
connected to other participants, located in Chicago and Tokyo, physical
places they can relate to in their mental world map, rather than the fact
that they actually - virtually - share the same space. Does this imply that
the virtual place and the virtual body, materialised in virtually
accessible environments, are coupled with one another in a similar way as
we experience the physical and cultural boundaries in our daily life?
"Fragments on New Media Arts and Science"
What is new media in the age of the 'rock 'n' roll life coach' Anthony
Robbins? ... To what extent have the 'tech wreck' and following scandals
affected our understanding of new media? ... Geert Lovink maps the limits
of new media post-dotcom.

From: "Morena Bacchini" <[email protected]>
Subject: artist-tutorial.net / First Issue / August 2003
artist-tutorial.net / First Issue / August 2003
Artist-tutorial.net is a monthly online periodical that intends to offer a
collection of art tutorials writed by artists themselves as technical guide
to the process of artistic creation.
In order to know how artistic creativity is expressed through the matter and
technical practices coming from computer or scientific disciplines.
[Tutorial and artwork]
Whichever location in space and time the artwork may assume, the analysis of
tutorial is based on the initial creation, the set of executed signs and
sounds or the set of instructions to execute that generate the set of
copies, of performances, the set of data transmissions or executions. The
artwork belonging to digital arts of reproduction and to digital performing
arts or belonging to the arts of communication and software cannot in fact
be identified in an object but in the initial creation. What the philosopher
Richard Wollheim calls "type", that is, the piece of human invention from
which the particulars or "tokens" are generated.
[Tutorial and artistic techniques]
The technical narration of tutorial describes the art mediated by the
material process of informatic techniques recognized as artistic practices.
It provides the possibility to read how the matter acquires the aesthetic
properties or itself becomes an aesthetically relevant property. Moreover,
the opportunity to investigate the initial creation discovers new forms of
digital matter notation, new writings of digital material processes.
However, according to the artistic genre and author's intentions, the artist
tutorial can appear as an essay or a pure tutorial, as a diagram, a sketch
by hand, as an exposition of code fragments with or without descriptive
comment or else as a photo or screenshot documentation.
The first issue relates the form of new dance notation. A digital dance in
the initial creation explained in the use by a revolutionary Maestro of the
choreography: Merce Cunningham.
