transmediale.01 - international media art festival berlin DIY [ do it yourself ! ] 4 - 11 February 2001 The transmediale.01 will award three prizes - each worth DM 10.000 - in the categories: Interactive, Video and Artistic Software. In the INTERACTIVE section, interactive installations were invited together with virtual environments, CD-ROMs, DVDs, Internet and performance projects etc. in which visitors or users are not simply "interpassive" but are encouraged to respond and act in a creative manner. The VIDEO section covers linear, time-based presentations searching for new aesthetic forms of expression. These can be on DVD, various video formats or film (up to 35 mm). The as yet barely defined field of ARTISTIC SOFTWARE incorporates projects in which self-written algorithmic computer software (stand alone programmes or script-based applications) is not merely a functional tool, but is itself an artistic creation and a form of aesthetic expression. Jury: Interactive Alex Adriaansens (NL) Soeke Dinkla (D) Michael Saup (D) Video Catrin Backhaus (D) Angela Melitopoulos (D) Gereon Schmitz (D) Software Florian Cramer (D) Ulrike Gabriel (D) John F. Simon (US) The juries have nominated a shortlist of 6 projects in each category. These projects will be presented by the artists in a programme on the afternoon of Saturday 10 February 2001. The winners will be announced during the prize ceremony on the same day, starting at 20.30 hrs. *Shortlist Interactive Daniel Garcia Andujar, Valencia/ES Phoney (CD-Rom) http://www.irational.org/tttp Blast Theory, London/GB Desert Rain (Performance) http://www.blasttheory.co.uk Anne Niemetz, Karlsruhe/D Noise Ratio (Installation) http://www.adime.de Marnix de Nijs, Edwin van der Heide, Rotterdam/NL Spatial Sounds (Installation) http://www.v2.nl/FreeZone/users/marnix/ Time's Up, Linz/A SPIN Body Spin (Installation) http://www.timesup.org/spin/ Herwig Weiser, Koeln/D, Graz/A zgodlocator (Installation) http://www.khm.de/~hw/zgodlocator/ *Shortlist Video Simon Ellis, Nottingham/GB Telling Lies Kit Hung, Hong Kong Invisible People Istvan Kantor, Toronto/CDN Broadcast http://www.interlog.com/~amen Manon Labrecque, Montreal/CDN c't'aujourd'hui qu' Sylvie Laliberte, Montreal/CDN The Tool is not always the Hammer Pekka Niskanen, Helsinki/FI A Girl Bathing in the Kitchen Sink *Shortlist Aristic Software Chris Csikszentmihalyi, Troy/USA DJ I Robot Golan Levin, New York/USA Audiovisual Environment Suite http://www.media.mit.edu/~golan/aves Netochka Nezvanova Nebula.M81 http://www.eusocial.com Daniela Plewe, Berlin/D Ultima Ratio http://flp.cs.tu-berlin.de/~plewe/ Antoine Schmitt, Paris/F Vexation 1 http://www.gratin.org/as/ Adrian Ward/Signwave, London/GB Auto-Illustrator http://www.signwave.co.uk The festival website is still under construction.
