Subject: CORRECTION! Call for papers
Convergence mails out 3-4 times a year. Mailing list details at bottom.
* * * CALL FOR PAPERS * * *
on the archaeology of new media for the special issue:
* * "Before and After Cinema"* *
CORRECTION: Submission deadline for this issue is 30 October 1998
For Volume 5, No. 2 of the Journal (1999) we are seeking papers
relating to research projects or case studies on the archaeology of new
media. This special issue is prompted by the question: Is it possible to
analyse and "historicise" the study of digital media in the same way that
cinema scholars and art historians have revised certain teleological
accounts of cinema's evolution?
In particular, we are looking for papers that deal with the possible
parallels that might be drawn between the two areas of research --
cinema and new media:
* historical accounts of cinema, radio, music, television, video and other
electronic artforms that throw light upon and draw relation to current
developments in the field of new media
* case studies of corporate and/or aesthetic strategies dealing with the
impact of new technologies on "old" (existing) media
* theoretical and/or historical articles that deal critically with the
evolution
of new media forms, from the 19th century to the present
* analyses of the convergence of the institutions of cinema with new
formations of media enterprises in the digital age
* analyses of specific artworks or products in light of the complex
historical, technological and economic forces that influence them
This issue will be guest-edited by Ross Rudesch Harley, lecturer in
Theatre/Film Studies, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia.
All inquiries about, proposals for articles or completed papers for the
"Before and After Cinema" issue should be sent to:

News release
http://www.fredforest.com
Buy time to those who need it
An artist has decided to stop the time so that we can live - at last !
Buy time to generate benefits for a charitable organization.
A French artist Fred Forest, a pionneer in technological art and
communication, well known across Europe by his spectacular media feats, is
now diverting the Internet e-trade system in aid of a humanitarian society
upholding the poor children in the Third World countries. Fred Forest, who
had the communication prize at the Sao Paulo Biennal Festival, who
represented France at the Venice Biennal Festival and at Kassel�s
Documenta, had already drawn attention to himself in October 1996 by
creating a world event, selling an unreal digital work, Parcelle/r�seau
(Particle/net), by auction, at H�tel Drouot in Paris, for $14,000
(http://www.imaginet.fr), and by making a case against the Centre Georges
Pompidou because of refusing to pass on the price of their acquisitions,
contrary to the 1978 French law about the transparency of public accounts
(http://www.nart.fr).
We, who always chase after time and who never have time enough, are from
now on, with Fred Forest the artist, able to buy some on Internet using the
secured Klebox system. This bought time may be used up either immediately,
on the spot, in real time, or at the moment the user considers the best
one. The offered time is sold by seconds, minutes or hours, in aid of Aide
et Action (Aid & Act), a humanitarian society for childness, by direct
removal of your virtual purse. Look at the article, selling time, on
http://www.fredforest.com.
On another hand, Fred Forest, on his own site � J'arr�te le temps � (I stop
the time), proposes on line :
� A SOFRES survey about our links to the time ;
� A free feet checkroom for you to be absolutely immobilized during the
time of the deal ;
� Safety instructions you have to fully respect to prevent any accident ;
� Chronicles from Earth illustrating our relationship with time and money.

http://www.monochrom.at/exot
der exot ist eine mobile, interaktive webcam. ein robot, der per website
(www.monochrom.at/exot) durch die wohngemeinschaft unseres
monochrom-haus-und-hof technikers franky in wien meidling fahren kann. die
schizophrenitaet des dings ist dadurch reguliert, dass ein chat modus
absprache/kommunikation ueber die koordination ermoeglicht.
es ist einfach witzig zu sehen, wie schnell die planlosigkeit der
chatter/fahrer sich kanalisiert; wie sie beginnen sich ein modell des raums
aus exotenperspektive aufzubauen und so eigenartige realitaeten
konstruieren - und eine neue sprache entsteht (zur koordination und
definition der umwelt) ... etwa werden alle wg-bewohner als "2beins"
definiert, objekte werden bestimmte bedeutungen zugewiesen, etc.
aber genaueres wollen wir da noch gar nicht sagen, der "exot" laeuft ja
erst seit ca. zwei wochen. testphase. es gibt ein komisches netscape 4.04
problem (kein automatischer reload des bildes und derlei dinge). aber schau
mal rein. wenn grad offline ist wird der exot gerade von den 2beins

What they say:
"A unique document on the cinema and the world of the media from the point
of view of the South." Pierre B�langer, Secretary General (elect), UNDA.
"Roberge speaks with images and puts the image in the service of his heart.
A refined book, a book of reflection and salt." Pierre Babin, CREC AVEX.
About the book:
The book has three interrelated parts. Parts One and Two probe various
aspects of communication and cinema, respectively, in the context of
so-called development. Part Three exemplifies the arguments of Parts One
and Two through analysis of a few films, author films and popular films,
>from India, Bangladesh and the USA.
Cinema plays a vital role in the life of our people. Indian movie stars
shine both on the silver screen and in golden politics, and the Indian
masses enter the films they watch to step out the other side of the screen
into their reality, programmed, as it were, by the dreams which the films
gave them. There is need for a serious reflection on the link between
communication, cinema and development.
Development is seen in this book as an international project that has little
to offer to those most in need. After over forty years of development, on
the ever of the year 2000, there are more jobless, poor, sick, and homeless
thane ever before. These are the facts, indeed the people, that confront
us. We must see the limitations of development and create new, much more
radical projects. For that we need a lot of hope. This book seeks to arouse
hope in the midst an awareness of our failures. After all, hope can have no
other context.

Getting started
---------------
What is Hack-IT 98?
Hack-IT 98 cannot be defined in one way only. It is an open-air
festival, a meeting, a hacking party, a pause for reflection, an
occasion of public learning, an act of rebellion and an exchange of
ideas, experiences, dreams, utopias and love.
What characterises Hack-IT 98 is our wish to live these three days
completely self-organised basing ourselves on our needs. Hack-IT 98 is a
SELF-ORGANISED event: there are neither organisers nor users, but only
participants.
Where?
In Italy, in a squat in Florence named C.P.A. (Centro Popolare
Autogestito, Popular Self-Organised Centre), Viale Giannotti 79,
Florence. Tel and Fax ++ 39 55 6580151
When?
On Friday 5th, Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th of June, 1998. If you wish
and if you have time, you can join Hack-IT 98 several days before the
starting date, in order to help organise the event, install the LAN and
do whatever might be useful.
How?
How you wish! The C.P.A. offers a large area where you can pleasantly
spend your days and nights during the meeting. There will be a
self-organised camping site, so bring your tent and everything you might
need.
How much?
Do you have to pay to participate to Hack-IT 98? Of course not.=20
Hack-IT 98 is a no-profit event and nobody will make money out of it.=20
In order to cover expenses we will organise a few concerts and other
social events; to attend these a small fare will be requested.
In the eventuality that the expenses should be too high, a small
subscription fee will be requested to all participants.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Computers and other tools
-------------------------
Will we have an Internet connection?
The answer is almost certainly "yes". Although during Hack-IT 98 people
are not meant to work on computers or to navigate on the net, we believe
it is important to be connected at all times.
We cannot guarantee the quality of the connection (probably some ISDN
lines) but we hope to give you more information asap.
Will we have a LAN?
Yes! For the LAN question also, we cannot provide you with further
technical details as everything is still in progress. Most probably the
LAN will be based on TCP/IP.
Will I have computers to work on?
The answer doesn't depend on us. We can guarantee connectivity and the
LAN, but have no idea of how many computers will be available. Bring
your own computer (laptop or not!), your ethernet adapter, your hubs and
so on. The LAN will be in continual progress!
So please read these FAQ as often as you can, as the information will be
continually updated.
Can I bring my own computer?
Of course! It would be an excellent idea if everyone interested in using
a computer during Hack-IT 98 brings his own.
Sheltered tables and rooms will be available.
What else do I need?
If you want to connect your computer to the LAN and to the net, you will
surely need a LAN Adapter. If you don't have one, you can buy one for
about 30$ in any computer shop. If you want to connect your laptop or
your non-IBM computer, you will have to spend a little more.
May I bring various electronic equipment?
Of course! You can bring whatever you want: radios, pagers,
radioscanners, toasters etc. etc. The more you bring with you, the more
Hack-IT 98 will be fun :-)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Logistics
---------
Where to sleep
If you want to live the true atmosphere of Hack-IT 98, the C.P.A. offers
a large area where you can place your tent or sleeping bag.
A tent is not necessary but useful, both for your comfort and your
privacy during the event.
Unfortunately we are in a metropolitan area, so do not expect lawns and
greenery. We will have to sleep on the hard cement! An inflatable
matress will allow you to go back home without a stiff neck!
If all this is just too much, you can book a hotel, but it will cost you
a lot more... A list of hotels will be posted later.
Where to eat
The C.P.A. is known for its good Italian cooking and good-looking cooks!
You can eat well at the C.P.A. without spending a fortune. Special
attention will be given to Vegetarians and Vegans. If you don't want to
eat at the C.P.A., there are many restaurants, pizzerias, supermarkets
and shops of every kind in the neighbourhood.
Services
WCs and showers will be installed for the event.
How to get there
Florence is - we think - a well-known place. The best way to reach it is
by train, plane, bus or car (but not by boat!). Detailed information on
how to reach the C.P.A. will be given later.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Programme (in progress)
-----------------------
-- Courses in basic network technology --
For people with average skills in computer usage.=20
The course will teach how to use the basic services offered by the most
popular networks.
The course will probably be open to a limited number of participants.
Information on pre-registration will be given later.
-- Cryptography and anonimity on the networks --
For people with an average knowledge of network technology.
The course wishes to show how to defend your privacy by using several
techniques (cryptography, steganography, PGP, anonymous remailers etc).
The course will probably be open to a limited number of participants.
Information on pre-registration will be given later.
-- Workshops --
The backbone of Hack-IT 98 will be a series of self-organised workshops.
Everybody can propose and carry out his own workshop. All we ask is that
you inform us as soon as you can what your ideas and proposals are. A
reminder: most of Hack-IT 98 will be in Italian=85
Here are few proposals for possible workshops:
- Knowledge within the Net (by Ferry Byte)
Knowledge as an instrument of self-defence. Is cryptography just a way
of protecting privacy, or also a way of protecting copyright? Distance
learning and distance working in Italy - the exchange of knowledge
through the net. Guest speakers are: Net Diver, Tommaso Tozzi, Arturo di
Corinto, The Walrus, Raf Valvola, Zero BBS, Stefano Lotti, Anna Carola
Freschi
- History of information technology (by Renato Pii)
- Packet Radio and wireless digital transmissions (by Andrea Bov)
