-----------------------------------------------------------------------

STATION ROSE: 1st DECADE - DAS BUCH.



1988-98.10 years of native multimedia art.

edition selene, Vienna. ISBN: 3-85266-082-3

204 pages, color & bw, with texts by Timothy Leary, F.E.Rakuschan,
Howard Rheingold,

Geert Lovink, Christoph Tannert, David Hudson, Elisa Rose, Gary Danner
and many others.


Chapters:


     A) Wien Start Up Sequence (1988)

     B) Cairo - you have home in egypt (1988-89)

     C) back in the western world (1989-90)

     D) Frankfurt & Cyberspace (1991-92)

     F) Digital Cocooning (1995-96)

     G)unafa: Pop, MIDI & Virtual Community (1996-98)



Content:


   * the 10-year-history of station rose hypermedia.

   * The historical facts are presented as a documentary report & in
     the typical graphical STR-style, including original documents, PR
     clips, icons, morphs, samples & texts.

   * moments in time - like e.g. the viennese phase (morphing the city
     from postmodern to digital), cairo or cyberspace/frankfurt - are made
     transparent with narrative sequences, combined with evidence out of
     station rose's "digital archive".

   * The "digital archive" provides an enormous amount of data, let STR
     grab what they needed: multimedia field-research in egypt with a little
     help of GUNAFA, multimedia field-research in california 1991/92/95,
     their connection with the german techno scene since 91, digital
     cocooning experience & their virtual community, cd s & cdroms with a
     major company.

   * the media/art theory concerning Station Rose has been provided by
     writers who know STR's work from the startup sequence in vienna
     until now - LAH/Life After History.


Das Buch is released at the Frankfurt book fair (6.1 C 128) in october '98.


BOOKPRESENTATION:


Location: OSTKLUB, Hanauer Landstrasse 99, Frankfurt.

Datum: Thursday, October 8th 1998, 21 Uhr.

Sound: Gary Danner

Visuals: Elisa Rose

Dj: N-D

Lecture: F.E.Rakuschan/Vienna.


Welcome !


The Booktour will see "Station Rose im Aussendienst" - on field duty
again.

and visuals out of the digital archive. The powerbook & us in the role of
fractal chairmen will talk about the book. We will present music and QTs,
videos (over P.A. and projections), live- from HD & tape, extending the
concept of a mobile "Gunafa Clubbing" as well, which started in 1989.

Subject: Announcing Finnegans Wake-based text recombination machine

"Here Comes Everybody - A Continuarration of/on Finnegans Wake"
<http://userpage.fu-berlin.de/~cantsin/hce/hce.cgi>


This machine generates new words and new narratives from the text of
"Finnegans Wake" by recombining its syllables.

Every word is a cross-reference which, once you follow it, reorganizes the
text and recombines it according to syllable patterns. New narratives
result, and new portmanteau words not to be found in Joyce's text.

A deep recursion into James Joyce's Finnegans Wake. Potential texts of
Finnegans Wake may perpetually be read here.

dear all,

bad news from the media front. the RAI (national italian
radio) has cancelled since september 20, 1998, the weekly
historical program 'audiobox'. no real reasons of course.

audiobox has been the most advanced and radical program
in the italian national radio. fully supporting mostly of
the net and radio projects created worldwide in the last years.
creating a platform for our daily net + audio activities
and experiments.

now your support is really important. we kindly ask you to
express your solidarity to audiobox sending a fax to :

Dott. Peppino Neri
RAI
fax: ++ 39 06 3216230

(Please note: every call from outside Italy MUST dial

thanks so much for your
attention and help

IN DIFESA DI AUDIOBX, CONTRO LA SUA CHIUSURA

Ne comunicano notizia gli stessi Pinotto Fava e Pino Saulo, loro
guide materiali e spirituali: a fine settembre '98 chiude Audiobox,
la trasmissione di RadioTre che tanto affetto ha conquistato presso gli
ascoltatori e tanto interesse ha suscitato a livello nazionale e
internazionale in virtu' della bonta', l'originalita' e l'efficacia
delle sue proposte, tutte di segno genuinamente culturale. Le motivazioni
della sospensione paiono quelle legate a una ristrutturazione aziendale
di palinsesto, ma vengono in mente ragioni dettate piuttosto da tagli di
tipo economico o da politiche degli ascolti francamente indecifrabili.
E' tutto da capire, infatti, perche' la Rai, anziche' rafforzare, intenda
sospendere uno dei suoi prodotti piu' validi, maggiormente dinamici e
meglio rappresentativi, per rimpiazzarlo magari con un'insulsa rubrica
di dischi o con un accomodante contenitore di chiacchiere in vecchio stile
(di cui le sue reti sono peraltro gia' ampiamente attrezzate).

In onda ogni domenica dalle ventitre' alla mezzanotte, in una fascia oraria
forse non inadatta all'ascolto di qualita' che il programma merita,
Audiobox ha in verita' sofferto anche in passato di destabilizzanti momenti
di silenzio e di forzata inattivita', con improvvisi cambiamenti di rete,
di orario e di formato. Tuttavia, e finanche nei titoli adottati ("spazio
multicodice", "derive magnetiche a piu' voci"), a ogni ripresa ha
riaffermato la voglia di configurarsi come area di ricerca sonora
aggiornata e aperta a occasioni tematiche diversissime, con un orecchio
vigile e critico puntato a tutti i livelli della comunicazione
contemporanea: dalle musiche alle arti audio e video, dal dialogo
filosofico al silenzio, passando attraverso il rock e il rap, il varieta',
l'evento in diretta; il telefono, la socialita', la virtualita' elettronica
e il rumore. A caratterizzare e a distinguere ancor piu' il programma negli
ultimi anni e' stata l'attenzione costantemente rivolta all'innovazione
tecnologica. Nel tentativo di reinventare un medium orizzontale capace di
assorbire, rubare, dilatare, manipolare e creare le occasioni acustiche
piu' disparate. Audiobox ha cominciato infatti - caso unico nel panorama
dell'emittenza nazionale - a esplorare le possibilite' tecniche e ideative
offerte alla radio dall'intreccio con satellite e Internet, in questo
alleandosi alle piu' avanzate esperienze internazionali: lo dimostrano gli
esempi di interattivita' e simultaneita' condotti cooperativamente con le
radio austriaca e svizzera, francese e britannica, canadese e australiana
in progetti prismatici e complessi come Shpil e Horizontal Radio, Rivers &
Bridges e Resonance 107.3 FM.

Ben lo conoscono gli ascoltatori piu' assidui, in grado di coglierne il
disegno di continuita' nel tempo, ma anche al casuale frequentatore del
programma non sara' sfuggito il di complementarieta' degli appuntamenti
allestiti da Audiobox su piu' fronti: le interviste e i concerti dal vivo,
i reportage da convegni e da festival; le occasioni di incontro e di
dibattito tra addetti ai lavori a publico; la grande considerazione per
l'emergere di nuove scene creative nazionali e internazionali nei campi
della musica, della drammaturgia, del cinema e della multimedialita'; la
rilettura di alcune preziose esperienze radiofoniche italiane del passato
(le riprese di "Un certo discorso" su Robert Wyatt e Cassix, per esempio).
E poi la sfida lanciata agli artisti di cimentarsi con le potenzialita'
specifiche del medium radiofonico: impressionante l'elenco dei nomi
coinvolti, da Wolfgang Fuchs a Mike Cooper, da Gianni Gebbia a Butch
Morris, dal Gruppo Romano Free Jazz a Musica Elettronica Viva passando per
Paolo Fresu, Eugenio Colombo, Mario Schiano, Giancarlo Schiaffini, Evan
Parker, Alberto Grifi, Jon Rose, Amy Denio, Cane Capovolto, Ned Rothenberg,
Chris Cutler, Ossatura, Takla Makan, A Bao A Qu, Alvin Curran, Tim
Hodgkinson, Luther Blisset e molti molti altri.

La lucidita' programmatica, animata dalla competenza e dalla manifesta
passione dei suoi conduttori; la capacita' di collegare l'impiego del mezzo
radiofonico a quello di altre tecnologie, intuendone il destino comune;
l'opportunita' data agli artisti di esplorare nuovi linguaggi creativi:
tutto questo rende Audiobox uno dei rari esempi di radio sintonizzata sui
bisogni culturali dell'ascoltatore, invitato a una fruizione sempre piu'
differenziata e consapevole dei fenomeni sonori di cui oggi si compone la
realta' quotidiana.
Che l'azienda Rai voglia mettere la parola fine a questa esperienza non e'
soltanto uno sbaglio: e' anche un grosso torto a danno dei cittadini,
utenti del servizio pubblico, di fronte al quale essi non possono ne'
vogliono rimanere indifferenti.

Mervin Jarman's work (www.mongrel.org.uk/baa) shows, amongst other things,
the fastest way for a Yardie to get past British immigration - a hilarious
collision of offficialese,Tel Aviv realism and pure criminal mindedness!

Dimela Yekwai (www.mongrel.org.uk/venus) is a powerful poet and
story-teller.  She considers herself to be in the tradition of village
'warner women', bringing words from beyond into the digital age for a
celebration of the individual and collective self.

Break/Flow (www.c8.com) will be presenting a portable sound installation

This event is organised by ShaKe Editions, leading up to the launch of a

Subject: Call for Entries

The Pittsburgh Center for the Arts is currently accepting submissions
and proposals for a 1999 exhibition entitled Digital Traces: Navigating
Interactive Domains.  Digital Traces is a cross-disciplinary examination
of interactivity in both screen-based and real-world environments.

Proposing interactivity as a medium, we will examine new forms and
experiences in the culture industries, including art, media and
entertainment, as well as the larger societal impact of new modes of
communication made possible by the Net's reconfiguration of real-world
time/space relationships.

The exhibition will exist as gallery installations and terminals,
printed catalog, and web site.  Submissions and proposals for all three
forms from those constructing, critiquing and theorizing interactivity
are encouraged.  Please submit relevant information and materials -
URLs, CD-ROMs, documentation, essays, abstracts, etc. - along with any
technical and budget requirements to:

Digital Traces
Pittsburgh Center for the Arts
6300 Fifth Avenue
Pittsburgh, PA 15232
USA

URL's and inquiries should be sent to [email protected].
All materials must be received by Friday, October 30, 1998.

hearts go with him...ummm....her?...it? Umm... anyway...

Visitors are encouraged to pay their last respects to ART PARTY SUNDAY
