Date: Fri, 21 Jul 2000 02:17:36 -0400 From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Organization: Bowling Green State University Subject: Participate in SIGGRAPH 2000 Art Gallery CALL FOR PARTICIPATION.... SIGGRAPH 2000! ON-LINE JULY 23 - 28 ONLY at: http://identity.dinerinc.com "Merging Identity: Exploration of identity, the body and life online" CONTRIBUTE A DIGITAL IMAGE IN RESPONSE TO IDENTITY THEMES! Have your work projected large in the SIGGRAPH 2000 Art Gallery! Expected attendence: 40,000 people ______________________________________________________________________________ "Merging Identity" is an international World Wide Web art event that enables you to collectively explore the evolution of creative expression by contributing to an evolving idea. As members of a global Internet community, our identity is defined not by our physical selves but by our ability to express ourselves via text and images. As we enter into dialog and interaction in our new world, we leave behind the body. Gender, race, and physical appearance are no longer a defining characteristic of our social selves. Without the body, identity can be boiled down to an email address, words and images. Rather than freeing us, the loss of the body begins to decompose our individuality and unify us into one large homogenous global identity. "Merging Identity" enables you to collectively explore the ways in which the body has helped shape our individual identities. You can respond to other's WWW contributions by submitting a visual response to the web site. Collaborators are invited to expand upon someone else's idea by submitting an image to the site. The site is fully automated, contributions are instantly added to the site, and existing pages are updated. Over 2000 invitations have been sent to individuals in 20 different countries. "Merging Identity" is an active event during SIGGRAPH 2000 and is open to show attendees and the global community. At SIGGRAPH 2000, conference attendees can participate at The Studio. During, and after SIGGRAPH the evolution of ideas is documented at: http://creativity.bgsu.edu.edu/identity ______________________________________________________________________________ Bonnie Mitchell Bowling Green State University [email protected] http://creativity.bgsu.edu/identity ------Syndicate mailinglist-------------------- Syndicate network for media culture and media art information and archive: http://www.v2.nl/syndicate to unsubscribe, write to <[email protected]> in the body of the msg: unsubscribe [email protected]
