The spatial and geographic properties of the Network are highlighted by broadcasting audio streams that travel and reverberate trough the web. Listening to these audio streams by using specific processes* allows to make audible an infinity of transformations that modify the sound as it circulates on the web. These alterations are comparable to a form of erosion caused by the network space - they are a key to allow different mental representations of this digital topography. *Very low buffers and no error corrections* PROCESS | *A sound is sent out over the network and goes through several locations on the web. Captured at the end of a loop by the original transmitter, the sound is played and then resent out with no additional modification through the web. *SOUND MATERIAL* | To emphasize the changes caused by the network, the sound used for the startup is deliberately very simple - pure silence. *SPACE* | Similar to a physical & resonant space, the Internet network is here used as a broadcasting space where sound gets more elaborated. The audio signal is modified by the inner properties of the network and becomes an acoustic signature of this space. *ERRORS* | The audio transmission process used here allows to keep all the distortions of the original material that occurred during the process (artefacts, transmission errors, missing data...). *TOPOLOGY *| The geography of the network is in perpetual motion. Web user's actions have a direct impact on the features of this "resonant space" - the sound that one can hear through Laps constantly crystallises the activity of part of the web. *EROSION* | As a block of raw material subjected to an erosion, the back-and-forth of the sound on the network gradually shape the original material. The audio stream becomes a real-time sculpture - a potential acoustic portrait of the network. *SUPPORTED BY *: Locus Sonus | G?ographies Variables Espace multim?dia Gantner | Rybn | SCAM | RIAM -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

They create performances and installationsthat exist solely as sensorial phenomena in constant flux. Their work entitled Sonolevitation features a 15 kHz standing wave generated between a transducer and a reflective surface. The sound creates focused pressure fields strong enough to enable levitation. Slivers of gold leaf are suspended in the air, and their disturbance of the standing wave creates the performance.

The Web 2.0 Suicide Machine lets you delete all your energy sucking social-networking profiles, kill your fake virtual friends, and completely do away with your Web 2.0 alterego. The machine is just a metaphor for the website which moddr_ is hosting; the belly of the beast where the Web 2.0 suicide scripts are maintained. Our service currently runs with Facebook, Myspace, Twitter and LinkedIn! Gordan Savicic will speak about this acclaimed project. Talk in German. The Drop Shadow Talks --------------------- The digital drop shadow is the most popular effect in computer graphics today. Easily applied, it made its way to modern graphic design and advertising. It raises typography and objects from a flattened background into three-dimensionality?and thus significance. With the current generation of operating systems the drop shadow effect entered the graphical user interface to a new extent. In this context it raises not only windows from background wallpapers; it also stands for a visually enriched interface that strives towards three-dimensionality. Loaded with rich imagery, photorealistic icons and pseudo three-dimensional configurations the graphical user interface yet remains tied to its flat medium. Bewildered by this paradox, the graphical user interface leaves the office it was made for and becomes a pop culture phenomenon. The Drop Shadow Talks reply to current developments on the visually enriched layer for machine interaction. In the shades of evening lectures the Drop Shadow Talks present art and projects influenced and inspired by the baroque graphical user interface. Location -------- The talks are located at Berliner Technischen Kunsthochschule in room J/K, second floor. Please ring. Admission is free.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <4C334E90.8000307@furtherfield.org> Sorry for any cross posting... Trajectories: How to Reconcile the Careerist Mentality with Our Impending Doom Part 3. by Ellie Harrison From September 2008 - June 2010, Ellie Harrison undertook a Leverhulme Scholarship on the Master of Fine Art programme at Glasgow School of Art. The thesis published forms one of the major outcomes of her research during this period. This is part 3, of 4 articles to be published on Furtherfield. Part 3, here: http://www.furtherfield.org/displayreview.php?review_id=395 How Can We Continue Making Art? - questions whether there is a place for art in a world which is fast approaching environmental catastrophe, and Altermoderism: The Age of Stupid (http://tinyurl.com/32a3wr7) published on Furtherfield (26/8/09) - which uses Nicolas Bourriaud's Altermodern exhibition at Tate Britain in 2009 as a paradigm for exploring the art world institution's lack of acknowledgement and action over climate change. Trajectories: How to Reconcile the Careerist Mentality with Our Impending Doom, addresses the ethical implications of continuing to choose the career of an artist in the twenty-first century. It is a manifesto of sorts, written from the personal perspective of a young UK-based artist looking to identify worthwhile reasons for continuing down this 'self-interested' path, given that the future we are likely to face as a result of climate change, is so different from how we dreamt our careers might pan out whilst growing up under Thatcher and New Labour. It explores how we should aim to evolve our roles as artists, in light of this, and what form a new 'reconciled practice' might take. ????> Other Info: A living, breathing, thriving networked neighbourhood...

Given biannually by the Digital Art Museum [DAM], Berlin, Germany. This international prize honours an artist*s lifetime achievement in the field of new media. In addition to receiving a monetary award (20,000 Euro), Hershman Leeson will have a retrospective exhibition accompanied by a catalogue at the Kunsthalle Bremen in Germany. The [ddaa] is the most import prestigious lifetime award to be given to artists in digital arts. Lynn Hershman Leeson is the fourth artist to win the prestigious [ddaa].

Lynn Hershman Leeson (* 1941) utilizes new media since the 1970s as a cutting-edge artist. She has been devoted to social issues of contemporary society: protection of privacy, gender role, the changing concept of identity in the the age of virtualty. Very often, she acts as a storyteller ina non-linear way by showing the loneliness of people in a world of mass communication systems. She works with an alter ego, puppets and agents and includes artificial intelligence. As a pioneer of interactive work her oeuvre includes performance, film, photography, site-specific installations and digital media. One of Hershman Leeson*s most notorious projects includes Roberta Breitmore, a fictional persona, created and enacted by the artist from 1973 * 79, and which anticipated virtual avatars. Hershman Leeson has been responsible for a number of technological innovations, including the first interactive computer-based artwork with Lorna (1983-84) and the artificial intelligent web agent DiNa (2006). Her three feature films with Tilda Swinton * Conceiving Ada (1997), the first movie to use virtual sets; Teknolust (2002); and Strange Culture (2007) * were shown at the Sundance Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival, and Berlin International Film Festival, and won numerous awards. Hershman Leeson has just completed !Women Art Revolution, a feature-length documentary to be released next year. Hershman Leeson*s work is featured in the public collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the William Lehmbruck Museum, Duisburg, the ZKM (Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe), The Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester, The Tate, London, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the National Gallery in Canada, the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis and The Hess Collection, California, among others. Most recently, Hershman Leeson received the 2009 SIGGRAPH Lifetime Achievement Award and a 2009 Guggenheim Fellowship. She is also the recipient of grants from The National Endowment for the Arts, Creative Capital Foundation, the Siemens Media Art Prize, ZKM, the Flintridge Foundation Award, the Prix Ars Electronica and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. In 2004, Stanford University acquired the artists working archive.

July 18, 2010 The research-based art project Agents & Provocateurs surveys certain forms of confrontation: agency and provocation, both understood as dissenting artistic attitudes. Starting out from the counter-cultural scenes of state-socialist East Central Europe, the project asks what sort of critical potential the oppositional artistic positions of the time really had. Was "oppositional" a (self-)chosen stance, or did the narrow confines of a repressive regime constitute dissident thinkers so? Did artists engage with various aspects of social reality under an autocratic political rule, or were they rather concerned over the infringements of their artistic and intellectual freedom?

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Dear friends, I'm glad to share with you my net-based, ongoing project: ?The virtual Prigione?. Demo at: http://www.chiarapassa.it/videoenglish.html Images at: http://www.chiarapassa.it/virtualprigioneimages.html ?The virtual Prigione?, interactive video-sculpture, time variable. Demo version 2?30??, 2010. ?The virtual Prigione? is an interactive portrait video-sculpture inspired by the concept of ?the latest ?unfinished? sculptures of Michelangelo, named ?Prigioni.? The website that hosts the virtual sculpture becomes dynamic and interactive. The user can sculpt using the mouse as a chisel. "The virtual Prigione" represents various states of being. The spectator can choose to liberate the sculpture from the marble and its dependence material, so the body-statue sublimates and the marble becomes virtual idea. Or the user can also choose to imprison the statue into the marble, bringing it to the primordial state where the mass has a simple geometric figure. http://www.chiarapassa.it/videography.html Sinossi ita: http://www.chiarapassa.it/videografia.html -- Chiara Passa chiarapassa@gmail.com http://www.chiarapassa.it http://www.ideasonair.net http://twitter.com/jogador Skype: ideasonair From ab at mikro.in-berlin.de Mon Jul 12 16:06:26 2010 From: ab at mikro.in-berlin.de (Andreas Broeckmann) Date: Mon Jul 12 16:07:56 2010 Subject: [spectre] (fwd) JOB: artistic director / transmediale Message-ID: Kulturprojekte Berlin GmbH is looking for an Artistic Director for the "transmediale - festival for art and digital culture".

S.LOW Projekt S.LOW is a Berlin-based cross-disciplinary project involving 34 international and national visual artists, music composers working with electronic media, musicologists, performers, engineers, physical scientists and film-makers. The project aims to articulate synergies from such a mixed community of individuals who have been invited to respond to the concept of ?slow? and or ?low ?, in the context of the city of Berlin. A major focus exists on the exchange of methodologies and knowledge, to address similar creative questions, which will investigate ideas such as; the creative use of s/low technologies versus cutting-edge ones; the degree of speed built into the creative process/thinking, particularly in cross-disciplinary works; high-low cultural streams as experienced by participants coming from academic and non-academic environments; slow/fast environmental impact of art and artists producing art; and finally, it has additional scope for investigation around vocabulary such as; low-cost/ recycled materials/low-budget/open source and related grammar. As the result of collaborations among practitioners and their interaction with the local community, expected outcomes will range from the creation of new works, to residencies, screenings, discussion of methodologies employed, workshops, performances, coffee roundtables, etc., which will take place from July 15th to August 20th, 2010.

EVOL (live performance for computer and gas horns) Since the late nineties, EVOL have been producing what they call ?computer music for hooligans?, giving birth to musical forms built upon a collision of structural ideas inspired by fractal geometry, glimpses of quantum theory and rave culture. From glowsticks to air horns, strangely familiar vocalisations and noise, their music displays a radical and playful approach to algorithmic composition. EVOL pieces have been published on record labels such as Entr?acte, Mego, Presto!? and ALKU amongst others. Rara Avis (informal sneak preview) ?Rara Avis? is a collective project about birdsong synthesis. The compilation, to be published by ALKU this fall, features contributions from Chris Brown (US), Oswald Berthold (AT), Anders Dahl (SE), Roc Jim?nez de Cisneros (ES), Fredrik Olofsson (SE), and Peter Worth (UK). All of them wrote generative audio programs that imitate or recreate bird speech through various synthesis techniques. This is the first public preview of the records? contents. http://alkualkualkualkualkualkualkualkualkualku.org -- NK PROJEKT http://www.nkprojekt.de/ Elsenstr. 52/ 2.Hinterhaus Etage 2 12059 Berlin Neuk?lln 0049(0)17620626385 JULIAN PERCY http://www.myspace.com/ratbag_ http://virb.com/lastdominionlost http://www.myspace.com/todesgeistprojekt GRATIS f?r alle GMX-Mitglieder: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT!

One single location, crazy special effect and 4 actors for a peculiar travel into deep space and a reflection on the relation between man and thecnologies. Mylicon/en likes to play on the same coordinates: deep space and concrete landscape depicted by "hand made" effects. Mylicon/en's Dark Star is a live performance in wich we there is a very strong dialogue between the digital sounds, captured and realaborated live by laptop and sampler, and the live video is created with no video mixer, no laptop, no digital filter. As usual we created visual track during a live performance using just a videocamera connected directly with the video projector. MYLICON/EN: BIO Lino Greco (visual) and Daniela Cattivelli (sound) created Mylicon/En in 2002. Mylicon/EN is a duo involved in experimental and alternative ways of conceiving audio-video live act, recovering performativity and concreteness through the use of analogical and mechanical devices in the production of images. Their works focus on the interaction between analog or mechanical devices with the digital realm. Visual texture is manipulated according to sound. During their improvisations and creation sessions they use many different common objects like glasses, plastics, water etc. to create sound and images. As multidisciplinary project, Mylicon/En performs in events of different kinds: from electronic music festivals to vijng festivals, from art galleries to performing arts festivals. Mylicon/En released also videos presented in various festivals worldwide. DIGIMADE Digimade is the Digicult's art-agency focused on Audiovisual Art & Design, directed by the art critic and curator Marco Mancuso. Digimade is working with Italian artists to develop and deliver their Audiovisual projects across the world, with Live Media concerts, Live Cinema experiments, Audiovisual environmental installations and videos. http://www.digicult.it/agency/ http://www.digicult.it/Agency/sections/artists/mylicon_darkstar.asp http://www.elyseestv.net/?id=107&affichage=video&page=7 http://www.myliconen.it/ From ab at mikro.in-berlin.de Wed Jul 14 10:37:21 2010 From: ab at mikro.in-berlin.de (Andreas Broeckmann) Date: Wed Jul 14 10:45:55 2010 Subject: [spectre] unsubscribe In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: done. -a >I have tried to unsubscribe using conventional means > >Now i am asking any administrator for this list to unsubscribe me > >both from > >seesix@gmail.com > >leon@c6.org > >thank you > >leon > >-- >Check out the latest: > >http://dotmasters.wordpress.com/ > >http://www.flickr.com/photos/dotmasters/ > >______________________________________________ >SPECTRE list for media culture in Deep Europe >Info, archive and help: >http://post.in-mind.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/spectre From marc.garrett at furtherfield.org Wed Jul 14 10:48:31 2010 From: marc.garrett at furtherfield.org (marc garrett) Date: Wed Jul 14 10:48:54 2010 Subject: [spectre] make-shift - Thursday 22nd July 7pm, HTTP:// Gallery, London.

Helen Varley Jamieson (NZ/Europe) and Paula Crutchlow (UK) are artists from different performance backgrounds whose new collaboration, make-shift, explores meaningful ways of engaging in discussion across physical and digital networks. make-shift will be a salon-style event, taking place simultaneously in two domestic spaces (with one artist present in each space) and also online - more information about the project is at http://www.make-shift.net. The process of making make-shift has begun with a two-week residency at Furtherfield.org, London, and in this presentation the artists would like to share some of their research and try out some ideas. You will be asked questions and invited to contribute your expertise, experience and opinions to this process. The artists are working in the spaces between disciplines and genres and are deliberately inviting people from a range fields to get a range of input. Your contribution to this will be very much valued. You must RSVP (to brokers at make-shift.net) as the proximal audience is limited (there will also be the opportunity to participate online if you are not in London or can't get to the event). Everyone who is attending is asked to collect their plastic rubbish over a 24 hour period and bring it to the presentation (please wash anything that had food in it!) We also need two volunteers to prepare specific tasks before the event - please email brokers at make-shift.net if you would like to volunteer. ------------------------ helen varley jamieson: creative catalyst helen at creative-catalyst.com http://www.creative-catalyst.com http://www.avatarbodycollision.org http://www.upstage.org.nz ------------------------ http://www.furtherfield.org/ http://www.http.uk.net/ From lists at asquare.org Wed Jul 14 13:12:19 2010 From: lists at asquare.org (Garrett Lynch) Date: Wed Jul 14 13:12:47 2010 Subject: [spectre] A series of interventions by Garrett Lynch In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <43A952EF-AC9B-4A4D-95AB-68E246D52BCD@asquare.org> The second in a series of interventions at I AM Columbia in Second Life by Garrett Lynch is now open.

Looking back at the first edition of Everyone Is a Designer in 2000, when we proposed the idea of democratization of design, a decade later this programmatic statement has become reality. We are designing our social lives, make our own choices, and create it all together! This book signals a new aesthetic movement of collaborism: a combination of socially, technologically and economically driven systematically generated visuals.

The technologies of communication and the mobility of information create a new, globally effective territorial order. The instabilities of this new order might not be best described as "crises" but show the functional limits of a system which had been successfully operating for several centuries. New critical methods and strategies for the analysis and design of the current situation are thus required. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sat 28 August 2010, 14:30h Ludic Maps Panel with Alison Gazzard (uk): Datalogging the Landscape; Tara Pattenden (fi): Mapplers; Polise Moreira De Marchi (br): Re(cognition) Mapping.

Within these currents, the economic and cultural significance of a place may change fundamentally in the course of only a few decades or even years. Urban residential and rural nomadic lifestyles are equally affected by impulsive, seemingly spontaneous shifts in the global urban fabric. The speed of new technology and its promise of pervasive availability of economic and social contacts makes the tenacity of life in rural areas blatantly clear. The specific mechanisms of self-organised urban, suburban and rural life in parallel with the world-wide information network provides insulation for the respective communities. Instead of a global village, a digital technology-created planetary archipelago arises. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sat 28 August 2010, after sunset Siegrun Appelt (at): Reale Formulierungen (Ruhrort) Light Installation, 2010 ***Only once***: M?hlenweide, Duisburg-Ruhrort Admission: free Siegrun Appelt is known for expansive light works that bathe whole city areas and architecture in bright light. For ISEA2010 RUHR in Duisburg-Ruhrort, she designs a spacious light work for the park-like gardens of the M?hlenweide, right on the banks of the river Rhine. Appelt works with the direct physical perception of light and its contradictory qualities: the intensity of the light radiates great warmth and also hurts the eyes. It turns nature into artifice and transforms whole landscapes. In their overwhelming intensity, Appelt?s works exaggerate the effects of light and urgently question the phenomenon of light pollution and our use of important energy resources. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sat 28 August 2010, 14:30 - 16:30h (part 1) and 19:30 - 21:30h (part 2) Rainer Werner Fassbinder: Welt am Draht (Film, 1973) Film screening At the institute of cybernetics and future research, scientists created an artificial world ? a counterfeit of a presumed 'real' one. After the sudden death of the institute?s director his successor, Fred Stiller, seems to meet the same fate as he begins to suspect that the reality he is living in is itself a simulation. This largely unknown film by Rainer Werner Fassbinder is an unsettling phantasmagoria on the anxiety of the use and misuse of computer modelling as a substitute for reality. Even 37 years after its initial screening on German television in 1973, the film displays an advanced vision of a present in which economic and social life have little material value. Rather, the film is engaged in new constant speculations about the status of reality ? or its inevitable simulation. After the screening of the film?s two parts, Timothy Druckrey will lead a discussion on the film?s themes and provide background information about its production. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sat 28 August 2010, 20:30 - 22:00h Charlemagne Palestine (us) Concert St. Maximilian Kirche, Duisburg-Ruhrort Admission: EUR 15/10 Charlemagne Palestine creates intense, ritualistic music, which he refers to as 'resonant music', in contrast to the 'minimal music' of his peers, Phillip Glass, Michael Nyman, Terry Riley and Steve Reich. With his piano and organ works, he has developed a highly individual aesthetic centred around layered overtones and electronic drones, which build and change gradually, gently harmonising. His performances are overtly spiritual in nature. Palestine's pieces consist of stratifications marked by an absence of linear progression and by a transcendent timelessness. What we hear seems to be an excerpt from a continuum that may well ring for eternity, an infinitely extended present that makes past and future fade away. This concert is presented in cooperation with club transmediale (www.clubtransmediale.de). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sun 29 August 2010, 12:00h Picnic M?hlenweide at the Rhine, Duisburg-Ruhrort Admission: with ISEA2010 Full Professional-, Symposium-, Three-Day- or Day-Pass ISEA2010 RUHR ends with a picnic at M?hlenweide, a small park on the banks of the river Rhine in Duisburg-Ruhrort. Following a densely packed conference and festival schedule, the participating artists, symposium speakers and other participants get together in an informal setting to enjoy spectacular views of the post-industrial panorama while musing about the experiences, issues and discussions of the previous week. As well as the breakfast, there will be a one-hour feedback session to reflect on the 16th International Symposium on Electronic Art, and to pass on the baton to the organisers of the 17th symposium, scheduled for September 2011 in Istanbul. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONTACT: ISEA2010 RUHR, c/o HMKV, G?ntherstra?e 65, 44143 Dortmund, Germany, info(at)isea2010ruhr.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- From mh at transmediale.de Fri Jul 16 09:37:13 2010 From: mh at transmediale.de (Markus Huber) Date: Fri Jul 16 09:37:38 2010 Subject: [spectre] transmediale =?utf-8?q?Vil=C3=A9m_Flusser_Theory_Award_2011?= Message-ID: <4C400C29.1080100@transmediale.de> sorry for any cross posting ... transmediale Vil?m Flusser Theory Award 2011 The Vil?m Flusser Theory Award (VFTA) promotes innovative media theory and practice-oriented research exploring current and pending positions in digital art, media culture and networked society.

Both concepts are part of a theoretical framework that attempts to explain developing cultural > augmentological patterns. Presencing embodies a rethink of conventional entertainment modes: "...Fiction and non-fiction classifications are designed to map to boundaries of known forms [think: cinema, literature, television and music]. They are so designed to provoke audience responses introspectively and externally. Current synthetic practices are refashioning this entertainment base via the perpetuation of types of unintentional and deliberately augmented recreation. These recreation types are reliant on immediacy of response, play, and Pranksterism. They employ Sandboxing, Gonzoism and spontaneous engagement. This type of entertainment is termed _Presencing_. Presencing involves loose clusters of pursuits that evolve in, or are associated with, synthetic environments. Examples include the Streisand Effect, Supercutting, Flashmobbing, the Slashdot Effect?Geohashing, Image macro generation and Internet meme threading?Presencing showcases accidental or reflexive entertainment elements where the fictional/non-fictional divide is erased; associated validity qualifiers are also removed and reconceptualised. Amateur production is equated with valued expression. Presencing also offers adaptive potential for augmented attempts at mediating geophysical constraints." The complementary concept of Synthapticism involves: "?Crowdsourcers [who] produce clusters of user-mediated data through surges of concentrated attention? Synthetics display attentional surges appropriate to synthaptic shiftings. Synthetic environments operate in accordance with this surge potentiality, with users adopting platforms that offer a contemporary catering for the relevant surge?Synthapticism produces unprecedented connections between synthetic participants. Adjunctive relationships are constructed via Identity interfacing and cushioned by support networks with a comparable emotional weighting to those found in traditional sociocentric structures [acquaintance>friendship>family>community]. Synthaptic communication may appear as fractured or trivial to those not connected synthaptically?? One contemporary example of a Presencing/Synthaptic Campaign centres on a PR-created character called ?The Old Spice Guy? or @OldSpice. This campaign, which makes extended use of social media > network dynamics, initialized with a Synthaptic threading system directly developed from conventional advertising: "...Anything is possible when you smell like an Old Spice man and our hero, Isaiah Mustafa, is back to illustrate just a few of the amazing things that an Old Spice man can do. The latest effort is a fully integrated campaign with TV, print and digital executions, targeted at both men and women...." [ http://www.wk.com/campaign/questions ] On July 13th 2010 [USA Portland time] the Old Spice brand extended this ?personalised? social presence/character via synthetically dependent platforms including Youtube, Twitter, Reddit, and Facebook. ?The Old Spice Guy? character urged cross-platform users to AMA [a popular internet thread on several boards which means "Ask Me Anything"]. The humorous > quirky responses included almost instantaneous @OldSpice micro-video answers to selected users, including meta-referencing by Isaiah Mustafa himself [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-qpEUOtLk8 ]. One response that encapsulates the Synthaptic aspects of this campaign began with the user @Jsbeals asking @OldSpice to make a marriage proposal on his behalf [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-fLV28SkZ8 ]. @Jsbeals later tweeted that his girlfriend had accepted the proposal: "@Jsbeals: @OldSpice SHE SAID YES!!!!" ?.and who then changed his Twitter Biography to: "The Old Spice proposal was real. Thank you Old Spice for helping me with this." A second response set resulted in the sending of actual/geophysical roses [referenced in a micro-video response] to Alyssa Milano. Each episodic response illustrates the flattening of traditional entertainment factors [think: @OldSpice responding to "everyday" users as well as more established Hollywood/Internet celebrities]. The campaign realigns passive entertainment construction and distanced absorption via real-time Immediation and Regenerative Comprehension [ http://bit.ly/JvGs3 ]. The Old Spice Guy Synthaptic threading is currently ongoing with replies continually being posted via Youtube.

Reichle: When Life Becomes Art, KHM, 20.07., 19h Message-ID: When Life Becomes Art: Molecular Biology and the Arts Evening Lecture by Dr. Ingeborg Reichle (Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities) Tues. 20 July 2010 19:00 hrs. at the Academy of Media Arts Cologne (KHM), Aula, Filzengraben 2, 50676 K?ln By contrasting contemporary art with recent scientific developments, it is possible to demonstrate that art today not only serves to comment on science, but also represents a form of research and knowledge production in its own right, though one belonging to a radically different epistemological tradition. Moving beyond the postulated dichotomy of the ?objective? sciences and the ?subjective? arts, contemporary art shows us that art is no longer limited to the production of beautiful artefacts, but has established its role as a legitimate form of knowledge production in its own right. Today the engagement of art with science ranges from artists? iconological handling of scientific imaging to research projects executed as artistic endeavours by artists working in the laboratory. In the last two decades we have seen a number of artists leave the traditional artistic playground to work instead in scientific contexts such as the laboratories of molecular biologists. Such artistic interventions in genetics and biological forms have made possible new means of artistic expression and art forms, like ?Transgenic Art? and ?Bio-Art?. These new art forms differ dramatically from more traditional artistic approaches that explore the natural and additionally have developed new methodologies. More radically these new art forms have crossed the boundaries between the artificial and the natural, provoking a different understanding of ?nature?. Dr. Ingeborg Reichle is an art historian and theorist at the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities, Germany. From 1998 till 2005 she was active at the Humboldt-University in Berlin. She has done interdisciplinary studies in London and Hamburg and holds an MA in Art History from the University of Hamburg and a PhD at the Art History Department at the Humboldt-University in Berlin.

Povijest je neprekinuti niz konfabulacija, spontana proizvodnja la?nih uspomena.' 04. 09. 1974. Dalibor Martinis je snimio video 'Mrtva priroda' koji prikazuje televizor na ?ijem ekranu se u tom trenutku emitira TV dnevnik. 35 godina kasnije (2009.) autor realizira TV dnevnik u kojem ?ita vijesti to?no po transkriptu emisije iz 1974. TV dnevnik u potpunosti odgovara dana?njem vremenu po tehni?kim karakteristikama, opremi, dizajnu i prate?im informacijama (burzovni indeksi itd.) jedino sadr?aj vijesti pripada jednom pro?lom vremenu, pro?lom ideolo?kom sklopu i pro?loj dr?avi. galerija je otvorena dnevno od 21 do 22 h ili prema dogovoru . ulaz slobodan galerija: Vankina vila .

The author uses this term to describe a 'partial recovery of lost data from the memory without the context that before the loss used to give them a positive, informative, social or other meaning. Just like the lost computer data, which is sometimes recovered only in fragments, disconnected from the original files, this process attempts to recover parts of actions, events or situations which have disappeared in our collective memory loss. What matters is that such event should not be contextualized through interpretations, historical constructions or manipulation of the lost memory. History is a perpetual stream of confabulations, spontaneous production of false memories.' On September 4, 1974 Dalibor Martinis created a video titled 'Still Life' which depicts a television set whose screen shows evening TV news. 35 years later, the author created a TV news which featured him reading the news exactly as transcribed from the 1974 evening programme. The TV news show was modern and contemporary regarding the aspects of technical characteristics, the equipment, design and the additional information presented on the screen (stock market information etc.), and only the content of the news belonged to a past era, past ideology and the former country. open daily 21 - 22 h or by appointment . free entrance gallery: Put sv.

At the same time new forms of methodologies inspired or powered by free software, participatory practices and peer-to-peer networks are fueling many Internet subcultures. Some of these emerging practices will lead to competitive social productions, while other will remain as pure artistic experiments. By adopting production and distribution methods based on free software and open standards and by sharing the sources of one's work with others, the collective knowledge base and aesthetic sensibilities can freely interact to explore uncharted, hybrid directions which no longer reflect the supremacy of a single idea. - Does the sharing of artworks "recipes" and tools help debunk the myth of the isolated design genius? - By leaving the possibility of ongoing development and refinement, is it possible to ever produce a "final" design? - Can these methods and technologies inspire new forms of creation or tools, beyond self-referential productions? - Is it wishful thinking to approach collaborative graphical design in the same way as an open source software project? - Is Free and Open Source licensing a catalyst for creation or does it add an extra level of complexity? - Can the limitation of one license trigger new forms of constrained creativity? We're currently seeking new, innovative media art and design works and projects focusing on the above theme and questions: - graphical artworks and installations - lectures - project presentations - software and hardware demos We're also seeking audiovisual performances that will take place during the festival evenings. The submitted projects must fit this focus and be made in a free/libre and open source environment, this includes both its optional dependencies or production tools and the operating system. We are asking you to publish the sources of your project under a free culture license of your choice or release it into the public domain. Projects that do not meet these criteria will not be considered. *How to apply* Submission form and a list of additional requirements are available at: http://makeart.goto10.org/call/ Deadline: *Saturday 31 July 2010* Incomplete or late applications will not be processed. *Timeline* 31st of July 2010 ?

Drummond* Organised by the Art for All Society (AFA), *Fairy Tales - Works by Jos? Drummond *will open at AFA Macau at 6:30pm on Friday 16th July. The exhibition, curated by James Chu, will showcase the most recent works of local artist, Jos? Drummond, including a video work and nearly a hundred small paintings. Born in Lisbon in Portugal in 1965, Jos? Drummond received his formal education in the painting, modelling, sketching and drawing in Lisbon, obtaining a professional diploma in arts management from the Institute of European Studies of Macau (IEEM). He won scholarships from the Orient Foundation (Funda??o Oriente) and the Centro Nacional de Cultura in Portugal. Since 1987, he has held 20 solo exhibitions in Portugal, Spain, Hungary and Macao. The forthcoming exhibition is his seventh solo exhibition organised in Macao. His works have been showcased in dozens of joint exhibitions held in Portugal, France, USA, Germany, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and Mainland China. *Fairy Tales - Works by Jos? Drummond* is a solo exhibition that follows his exhibition *The Idiot* organised by AFA in early 2009. People have different life pursuits at different stages; however, a glut of information in society intuitively changes our future pursuits and desire for change. Jos? Drummond, the Portuguese artist who has settled in Macao for more than 16 years, decided to use ?Fairy Tales? as the theme of this solo exhibition. How will ?Fairy Tales? be portrayed by Jos? Drummond? Exhibition-goers will find the answer in his works. Organised by the AFA and sponsored by the *Secretariat for Social Affairs and Culture of the Macau SAR,* *Fairy Tales - Works by Jos? Drummond* is scheduled to open at 6:30pm on Friday 16th July at Rua Francisco Xavier Pereira No. 45-49, FL/3, Edf. Ind. Luen Hing,Macau, and closes on 15th August.

Juli 2010 Eintritt: 2,50 / 1,50 ? Beginn 20.00 Uhr Ort: Edith-Ru?-Haus, Katharinenstra?e 23, Seminarraum Hunger - UK 2008 Laufzeit: ca. 91 Minuten FSK: 16 "Mein Leben in die Waagschale zu werfen ist nicht nur das Einzige, was ich tun kann - es ist das Richtige." Bobby Sands, verurteilter IRA-Terrorist, inhaftiert im ber?chtigten Maze Prison. F?r die einen ist er ein Held und M?rtyrer, f?r die anderen ein Terrorist oder ein gew?hnlicher Krimineller. Bobby Sands ist 1981 im Alter von 27 Jahren im Maze-Gef?ngnis in Nordirland verhungert - aus freiem Willen. Mit seinem Tod wollte er die britische Regierung zur Anerkennung der IRA-H?ftlinge als politische Gefangene zwingen. Nacheinander sind ihm noch neun Mith?ftlinge in den Hungertod gefolgt. Sands starb am 5. Mai 1981. F?nf Monate sp?ter erlaubte die britische Regierung den Gefangenen, Zivilkleidung zu tragen. Auch die meisten ?brigen Forderungen wurden in der Folgezeit erf?llt, wenn die IRA-H?ftlinge auch nie offiziell als politische Gefangene anerkannt wurden. Hunger ist ein kompromissloser, zutiefst verst?render Film ?ber einen Hungerstreik der IRA 1981. Er ist der Deb?tfilm des mit dem Turnerpreis ausgezeichneten englischen K?nstlers Steve McQueen. (Ascot Elite) "Dieser Film ist anders. Fesselnd und von ersch?tternder Poesie. Eine Sensation." M?rkische Allgemeine Zeitung "Die Errettung des Kinos aus dem Geist der Kunst: Hunger von Steve McQueen." FAZ My War. Partizipation in Kriegszeiten 10. Juni bis 29. August 2010 Die Ausstellung zeigt k?nstlerische Arbeiten zu Repr?sentationen aktueller Kriege in der Medienkultur. Diese fragen nach den (moralischen) Effekten der sich aufl?senden Grenzen zwischen privat und ?ffentlich, pers?nlich und politisch. Individuelle k?nstlerische Auseinandersetzungen mit Kriegsbildern und Kriegserfahrungen stehen dabei ebenso im Fokus wie auch der Einfluss von digitalen Technologien auf die Verbreitung von Kriegsbildern und die aktuelle Kriegspraxis.

If you are not yet familiar with IEPE, here is our mini report in which the author himself explains the background of his last action entitled *Painting Reality*, performed on the occasion of the premie`re of the film at Berlin Kreuzberg Biennale. The intervention itself took place on April 25, 2010 at Rosenthaler Platz in Berlin. The lead roles were played by four colors, cyclists and car drivers. -- ..............................................................................................................................................................

The exhibition will be presented in major museums of photography in Rome, Berlin, Bratislava, Luxembourg and Paris. Venues : Palazzo delle Esposizioni, Rome : http://www.fotografiafestival.it/ Berlinische Galerie, Berlin : http://www.mdf-berlin.de/ Bast'Art, Bratislava : http://www.sedf.sk Mudam Luxembourg : http://www.emoplux.lu/ Maison europ?enne de la photographie, Paris : http://www.mep-fr.org We're looking for Bangalore based artists (or artists who visited Bangalore or Srishti school), photographers and art organisations to contribute to a web based map that will display various multimedia contents. The touring exhibition project follows a workshop organised in november 2009 at CEMA (Center for Experimental Media Arts), a lab at Srishti school of art, design and technology in Bangalore (India). http://cema.srishti.ac.in If you want to contribute with your contents, please contact Ewen Chardronnet (e.chardronnet@gmail.com) or Benjamin Cadon (benjamin@labomedia.net). Metamap.fr‭ is a web application developed by Labomedia.org software developers. It proposes a digital space where users can geo-localise multimedia contributions (photos, videos, sounds, texts, information flows, GPS tracks, etc.) to offer their perception of a territory. The ?Subjective Cartography? project developed by Benjamin Cadon and Ewen Chardronnet deepen the use of the web application in a more artistic way. The artists believe that using these new media tools by combining them to the subjective exploration of urban territories, reflect the contributive logic of contemporary mapping&social online medias and give a multimedia interpretation of very personal way of exploring a city, in the tradition of the flaneur, the derive, the psychogeography and walk-art in general. For the European Month of Photography (EMOP) ? Mutations III, a dedicated version will be developed by Benjamin Cadon and Ewen Chardronnet, presenting numerous subjective and photographic explorations of the social, anthropological and urbanistic transformations of Bangalore. Metamap is a powerful tool to create and edit thematic multimedia maps, giving the opportunity to invent new kinds of narrative or documentary works. The organisation of the materials that constitute a thematic sight through one or several maps allow any web user to easily ?watch? this creation in an interactive geolocalised mode, going from one content to another in function of the order chosen by the creator. It constitute an original mode to valorize and expose an individual or collective work. Benjamin Cadon and Ewen Chardronnet want to organise a dynamic process through a ?call for participation? allowing several contributors to present their work online and during the festival's exhibitions. In the exhibitions, the project will be presented in a set up of variable dimensions with the possible following elements : * display on a big screen of various photographic explorations in automatic mode * exhibition of a serie of printed photographies selected on the map * video monitor presenting a selection of videos selected on the map * headphones to listen sounds collected by participants and displayed on the map >From a general point of view, MeTaMap‭ web application ‬is proposing a digital space for exchange, expression and exhibition, ‬to constitute an area for experimentation,‭ ‬to imagine what a public space of the future could be. Based on the principle of mash-up,‭ ‬the project has several dimensions‭ ‬:‭ ‬a place for showing and sharing geolocalised multimedia content,‭ ‬a place crossroads of other social and cultural networks and connected to the real world through various interfaces Thus,‭ ‬every registered person can geo-localise multimedia contributions in order to deliver his or her perception of the area,‭ ‬relate an experience,‭ ‬a moment,‭ ‬share reflexions on the social and cultural environment.‭ ‬Users can then take a tour across this map,‭ ‬where all the contributions are represented by a pictogram which when clicked,‭ ‬reveal multimedia content,‭ ‬which has been annoted,‭ ‬or commented on by others.‭ ‬In this way it is possible to‭ ‬visit and experience a district or a city through the eyes and ears of other people,‭ ‬or review the content in a more classic way via photos,‭ ‬galleries,‭ ‬mini networks webtv,‭ ‬personal or collective micro-blogs. The ?mash-up? technique could also be used to integrate materials from the web, it consist of a combination of several web applications or services assembled to produce text, audio or video content as in a mecano game : researches mixing geographical and semantical approach, grabbing infomations from RSS flux or tweets, streaming real time audio or video on the map, ... This approach is also a good way to consider several hi-tech web applications that can be used for many purposes. The web application Metamap.fr is developed by Labomedia.org in Orleans (Fr). The project follows a workshop organised at CEMA lab of Srishti school of art, design and technology in november 2009.

Over the last decade, in the same formal space, VIDA has been bringing together inter-disciplinary projects that respond to this situation. By means of formal strategies that defy the boundaries between existing practices, these projects offer new ways of reflecting on what we understand by life and artificial life. Fundaci?n Telef?nica announces the VIDA 13.0 Art & Artificial Life International Competition, which for the last twelve years has awarded prizes for artistic projects using technological mediums offering innovative approaches to research into artificial life. The projects may be based on systems which emulate, imitate or speculate on the notion of life through current research and technology. These systems may involve attributes of agency and autonomy which display specific behaviour, are dynamic, react to their surroundings and evolve, and which question the frontiers between what is alive and what is not, between synthetic and organic life. As in previous years there are two categories to the competition: FINISHED PROJECTS In this category VIDA 13.0 will award prizes to artistic ALife projects developed after 2008. The sum of 40,000 Euros will be shared between the projects selected by the jury: First Prize: 18,000 Euros, Second Prize: 14,000 Euros, and Third Prize: 8,000 Euros. In addition seven honourable mentions will be awarded. ARTISTIC PRODUCTION INCENTIVES IN IBEROAMERICA, SPAIN AND PORTUGAL In this category VIDA 13.0 helps to fund artistic ALife projects that have not yet been produced. This is aimed at citizens or residents of countries comprising Latin America, Spain and Portugal. The sum of 40,000 Euros will be shared between the selected projects. The winning projects will be subsequently exhibited at the VIDA Gallery, http://www.fundacion.telefonica.com/arteytecnologia/galeriavida/. and may be presented in exhibitions related to art and new technologies organised by Fundaci?n Telef?nica or in which it takes part. DATES Period for submission of projects: from 19th July to 7th November 2010. JURY The works submitted will be examined by an international panel composed of Jos?-Carlos Mari?tegui (Peru), M?nica Bello Bugallo (Spain), Nell Tenhaaf (Canada) Rodrigo Alonso (Argentina), Simon Penny (USA/Australia), Zhan Ga (China) and Francisco Serrano (General Director of Fundaci?n Telef?nica).

The complete work will be shown at the 29th Bienal de S?o Paulo this autumn. Miceli travelled to Belarus several times over a period of three years and this publication will combine collected photographs from her travels to the exclusion zone around the reactor, subjective personal readings and official documents such as visas that have become key elements of the project itself. The documents gathered in the publication, usually withheld from the exhibition visitor, define the scope of social, political and personal parameters encountered and their essential role within the project and its development. Similar to the proceedings within her photographic and cinematic works, here the inconspicuous or invisible is being made visible by questioning what is considered to be normal. The publication is therefore not only an integral part of the work along with the films and negatives that have so far formed the Chernobyl Project, but will allow a deeper insight into the thoughts and work processes of the artist and her examination of her experiences and encounters beyond the creation of the final exhibition works. On the occasion of the book launch the artist Alice Miceli will talk about the finalized project at HEROES in Berlin. The publication will be available for sale at a reduced launch rate.

Juli 2010 um 11.30 Uhr Ort: Julius-Mosen-Platz Er?ffnung: 25. Juli 2010 um 11.30 Uhr Zur Er?ffnung der Klanginstallation RainDance am Sonntag sind Sie herzlich eingeladen. Ein langer Holzsteg steht auf dem Julius-Mosen-Platz in Oldenburg. Darauf sieht man Menschen mit Regenschirmen, mit denen sie sich vor dem Spr?hregen sch?tzen, der aus sechs D?sen ?ber ihnen kommt. Verzaubert verharren diese Besucher unter den Schirmen, als m?ssten sie mitten im Sommer das Gef?hl eines Regentages haben. Aus der Ferne betrachtet, formen sie ein poetisches, aber absurdes Bild. Neugierig geht man n?her, nimmt sich selbst einen Schirm und tritt damit in den Regen, um genauso fasziniert stehen zu bleiben. Rain Dance ist eine interaktive Klanginstallation des amerikanischen K?nstlers Paul DeMarinis. Spr?hstrahlen aus kleinen Wassertr?pfchen, die aus den sechs D?sen herabregnen, transportieren Klangvibrationen. Sie sind unh?rbar, solange der Wasserstrahl nicht mit einem gro?en Regenschirm unterbrochen wird. Dann wird der Klang entschl?sselt und von der Oberfl?che des Schirms wiedergegeben. Der Regenschirm wird zum Lautsprecher, aber er ist gleichzeitig ein privater H?rraum, exklusiv f?r diejenigen, die darunter stehen. Im besonderen Sommerregen von RainDance wird der Julius-Mosen-Platz zu einem H?rerlebnis und zur sch?nsten Sommerfrische Oldenburgs. Paul DeMarinis Klangerlebnis wird diesen Sommer vom 25. Juli bis 26. September 2010 auf dem Julius-Mosen-Platz zu sehen sein. Vom 26. bis 28. August ist RainDance geschlossen. Au?erdem k?nnen Sie weitere Werke in der ersten deutschen Einzelausstellung Paul DeMarinis vom 10. September bis 7. November im Edith-Ru?-Haus f?r Medienkunst bewundern. RainDance findet im Rahmen von klangpol statt. klangpol wird gef?rdert durch: Netzwerk Neue Musik, Kulturstiftung des Bundes, Nieders?chsisches Ministerium f?r Wissenschaft und Kultur und EWE RainDance wird unterst?tzt von der Bremer Landesbank. ************************************ sorry, no English version available ************************************** Infos zu Ausstellung und Rahmenprogramm Edith-Ru?-Haus f?r Medienkunst Katharinenstra?e 23 26121 Oldenburg +49/(0)441-235 3208 info@edith-russ-haus.de www.edith-russ-haus.de ( http://www.edith-russ-haus.de/ ) Sollten Sie keinen Newsletter mehr von uns erhalten wollen, benachrichtigen Sie uns bitte unter unserer email-Adresse: info@edith-russ-haus.de From nc-agricowi at netcologne.de Thu Jul 22 10:58:23 2010 From: nc-agricowi at netcologne.de (nmART) Date: Thu Jul 22 10:59:02 2010 Subject: [spectre] New interview - CologneOFF Vi in Budapest Message-ID: <20100722105823.B2EF016F.46E8C730@192.168.0.3> [NewMediaArtProjectNetwork]:||cologne experimental platform for art and new media is happy to announce 1. the new interview --> Agricola de Cologne interviewed by Gioula Papadopoulou, curator of Videoart Festival Miden Kalamata/Greece was released on http://www.festivalmiden.gr/textslinks/Wilfried_Agricola_de_Cologne_Interview_EN.htm see also http://www.agricola-de-cologne.de/blog/?p=615 2.

The Status Project: Data-Mining Our Identities. An Interview with Heath Bunting - Part 1. In this two part interview, Marc Garrett discusses with Heath Bunting his current work within two distinctive areas of digital culture and sport-art starting with The Status Project, which studies the construction of our 'official identities' and creates what Bunting describes as "...an expert system for identity mutation". His research explores how information supplied by the public in their interaction with organisations and institutions is logged. The project draws on his direct encounters with specific database collection processes and the information he was obliged to supply in his life as a public citizen, in order to access specific services; also on data collected from the Internet and from information found on governmental databases. This data is then used to map and illustrate how we behave, relate, choose things, travel and move around in social spaces. The project surveys individuals on a local, national and international level producing maps of influence and personal portraits for both comprehension and social mobility. http://www.furtherfield.org/displayreview.php?review_id=402 ????> Other Info: A living, breathing, thriving networked neighbourhood...

Indeed, the 80 years since the first manifeste of art started as a challenge to the stars, exactly 11 February 1989, my researches led me to continue more than 40 projects in over 20 years, in a spirit of Liberty as LED, Equality and Fraternity, in my free trade. Today, I am forced to take stock, almost a year after my "Open Letter to M" last September, 11th 2009, the real impossibility to continue my researches, both theoretical and practical in France today. So, I decided to invite all my friends on Facebook to support me, by donating directly to my paypal account corresponding to this email ancelfranck@gmail.com. This will maybe help me to fund a capture streaming Light Sound in a Device "LSD" to 360? the 10/10/10, in a secret place and whose title is "G0" in the continuity of my Last participatory event "from Zero to Infinity" under the dome of a temple, in room 27, the website http://www.selfworld.net Please, invite all your friends to my Facebook profile which will soon reach the limit of 5000 contacts and each will make a gift, a positive thought or a financial support that will also finance a monograph which an edition is planned for April 12, 2011. While the launch date of this monograph will correspond to the 50 years since the first man in space, the cover of this book will consist of the first 5000 people in my social network, ie you, having failed to network allowing me to work in France.

As the computer's visible surroundings change, the instability of the operating system increases. An example: The computer running psworld is in a park watching a bird in a tree. If the process 'Firefox' is attached to the bird's head and the bird suddenly flies away, the Firefox process will be terminated on the computer. Similarly, a breakfast scene may include many processes attached to various edibles on the table. As breakfast is eaten, dependent processes on the computer will be terminated. A breakfast is an example of a highly unstable environment whereas a concrete wall deep underground, cast in even light, is not. Here is a project page for psworld, including source code, images and video. http://julianoliver.com/psworld psworld will later become part of a suite of aberrant and impractical tools known as The GNU Luserland Utilities. //<--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for reading, -- Julian Oliver home: New Zealand based: Berlin, Germany currently: Berlin, Germany about: http://julianoliver.com From nc-agricowi at netcologne.de Mon Jul 26 10:36:56 2010 From: nc-agricowi at netcologne.de (nmf2010) Date: Mon Jul 26 10:37:31 2010 Subject: [spectre] Program - Week 31 - NewMediaFest'2010 Message-ID: <20100726103656.C0391FF1.C52667BA@192.168.0.3> NewMediaFest'2010 --------------------------------------- program- week 31 --> 26 July - 1 August 2010 http://2010.newmediafest.org/?p=956 --------------------------------------- Feature of the week 31 - http://2010.newmediafest.org/?p=948 SoundLAB - sonic arts is happy to re-launch on occasion of NewMediaFest'2010 -Memoryscapes - SoundLAB IV- consisting of 12 unities - m'scapes including in total 144 artists, curated by Wilfried Agricola de Cologne.

Association is conceived of as a forum for art in Tyrol, as an interface between professional visual artists living in or originating from Tyrol, the interested public, and other cultural institutions in and outside of Austria. An important task for the Association is forming and maintaining contacts to internationally active artists, curators and theoreticians. The exhibition programs of the KUNSTPAVILLON and the Stadtturmgalerie presented projects by Tyrolean artists in relation to an international context. The Stadtturmgalerie is moving into the Hofburg at the beginning of 2011, where, as the NEUE GALERIE, it will offer more space for artistic projects in the exciting historical complex of buildings. The emphasis for the Kunstpavillon and Neue Galerie programme is placed on presenting artistic production with a relationship to Tyrol. Exhibitions by external curators and artists from abroad and other Austrian federal states are important points of engagement and offer exciting surfaces for friction. The programs for the Kunstpavillon and the Neue Galerie are put together by a jury of arts professionals primarily from submissions received in response to an open call. The call is sent to members of the association as well as to national and international artists and curators. The jury of professionals is made up of members of the board of the association along with external experts. More information on current and past exhibition programs of the K?nstlerschaft can be found at www.kuenstlerschaft.at. Five exhibitions in the Kunstpavillon and five in the Neue Galerie are intended for 2011. For more information please contact: pavillon@kuenstlerschaft.at, tel. +43 512 581133.

Today's digital technologies have created a new model of understanding different aspects of reality. The change they produced compels us to reconsider the conditioning of our modern lives while their potential demands to be explored. Penetrating and transforming everyday cultural practices and spaces, they are defining our present paradigm. Communication technologies and portable media devices are today omnipresent and are increasingly ubiquitous and personalized. By capturing and transforming the analog signal in digital form, we are today capable to deal with information of all kinds brought to a common denominator. The digitalization allows us to treat and to carry different types of data with the same efficiency, but also to intermingle them. After a period when the attention was focused on the structures of digital, today we are facing a much more general concern related to the possibilities offered by the interposition between analogue and digital data. With the digitalization we assist to a phenomenon of automation which penetrates the very aspects of our lives. Their alliance today with the spectrum of nano- and bio-technologies is about to induce majors changes in the way we deals with matter and identity. If the matematization defined modernity, we also notice today a re-evaluation of phenomenological aspects. What kind of models are we using today in perceiving and understanding our environment? In which way these models are to be found in the technological development? Can the phenomenological approach and description bring light to the study of digital structures? What are the means phenomenology provides for the study of the digital technologies and their implications? Which are the potential and the limits of the phenomenological method in the field? Are there new models that impose themselves in the analysis of our highly technological world? By trying to answer all these questions, we intend to identify the relevance of the phenomenological approach and method in the research of digital technologies. Our goal in this special issue is to bring together papers that explore the different ways in which philosophy, aesthetics, cognitive science and computer sciences can be combined to offer a novel perspective on digital technologies. Prospective authors are encouraged to take into account the following areas: *1. Digital Technology and Common Experience:* * digital and new media art * imaging and sound technology * digital-being * virtual and mixed realities * augmented reality and augmented virtuality * digital fiction and digital reality * simulation and interactivity * techno- and telepresence * portable technology and technosomatics * phenomenological exploration of the digital *2. The Process of Digitalization:* * data systems and models * data structures and databases * digitalization and digital literacy * digital phenomenon * techniques of representation and visualization * digitalization and codification of experience * codification and automation * codification and materialization * soft computation * philosophy of science and phenomenotechnique The papers and reviews will be selected from the submitted proposals on the basis of double blind peer reviews. Authors should address the papers before September 1st, 2010 and will be notified on the results via email by October 22, 2010. * IMPORTANT DATES: * Deadline for submissions: September 1st, 2010. Notification of acceptance: October 22, 2010. Publication: December 2010 Papers should be written in English, French or German should not exceed 75.000 characters and should be accompanied by a short abstract written in English (maximum 700 characters). Submitted papers should be sent by e-mail to the Editorial Staff: studia@hiphi.ubbcluj.ro in ".doc" or ".rtf" format as attachments only. * INDICATIONS FOR THE AUTHORS* For the submission of the papers, please follows the guidelines specified on the journal's blog: http://studiaphilosophia.wordpress.com/indication/ * JOURNAL PRESENTATION* The series Philosophia of Studia Universitatis Babe? - Bolyai (ISSN 1221-8138) is a peer reviewed journal devoted to promote a high level of academic research in the field of philosophy and related fields; it strives to foster a strong collaboration among senior and junior researchers from Babes-Bolyai University Cluj-Napoca and from abroad.

Trajectories: How to Reconcile the Careerist Mentality with Our Impending Doom. Alternative Knowledge Part 4. http://www.furtherfield.org/displayreview.php?review_id=396 by Ellie Harrison From September 2008 - June 2010, Ellie Harrison undertook a Leverhulme Scholarship on the Master of Fine Art programme at Glasgow School of Art. The thesis published forms one of the major outcomes of her research during this period. This is part one of four weekly articles to be published on Furtherfield. How Can We Continue Making Art? - which questions whether there is a place for art in a world which is fast approaching environmental catastrophe, and Altermoderism: The Age of Stupid (http://tinyurl.com/32a3wr7) published on Furtherfield (26/8/09) - which uses Nicolas Bourriaud's Altermodern exhibition at Tate Britain in 2009 as a paradigm for exploring the art world institution's lack of acknowledgement and action over climate change. Trajectories: How to Reconcile the Careerist Mentality with Our Impending Doom, addresses the ethical implications of continuing to choose the career of artist in the twenty-first century. It is a manifesto of sorts, written from the personal perspective of a young UK-based artist looking to identify worthwhile reasons for continuing down this 'self-interested' path, given that the future we are likely to face as a result of climate change, is so different from how we dreamt our careers might pan out whilst growing up under Thatcher and New Labour. It explores how we should aim to evolve our roles as artists, in light of this, and what form a new 'reconciled practice' might take. Part 1.

Jerusalem] Across Hackney, East and South London and within its various streets and rivers an assembled crew of tinkerers, thinkers and artists will perform diverse pyschogeophysical investigations and actions within the first week of August. The summit will culminate in a large outdoor celebration and exposure of such endeavours on Saturday the 7th day of August within a divined public space or garden. Actors will engage in measurements of various fields pertaining to the sun, earth and moon, to determine how these elements might influence a person's humours, wills and wishes. Tinkerers will make comprehensive study of material composition at diverse locations and of how these properties might affect the faculties of individuals within such neighbourhoods. Both parties will set themselves towards the end of revealing sites of execution and memory throughout London. The summit will commence with an open meeting and luncheon within SPACE on Mare Street in Hackney at midday on Monday the 2nd of August. Workshops, walks, river drifts and investigations originate each weekday from eleven at SPACE. Speculations will be unveiled from seven in the evening each day at the same location. On the evening of Thursday 5th August (8PM) a programme of public lectures and entertainments will take place at HTTP gallery in Haringey. Activities are including: Dark Heart of Codeness, a .walk: A .walk into computational darkness, Tuesday the second of August 2010 commencing three in the afternoon at the entrance of the Royal Observatory in Greenwich Park.

With works by: Seiko Mikami (jp), Carsten Nicolai (de), knowbotic research (ch/at/de), Milica Tomic (rs), Ariel Guzik (mx), Joan Leandre (es), Joyce Hinterding (au), Julien Maire (de/fr), Naeem Mohaiemen (bd), HC Gilje (no), Sophie B?lair Cl?ment (qc/ca), Konrad Becker (at), Verena Friedrich (de), Antoine Schmitt (fr). Trust is a major factor in all human relations and it is the basis of communication. We trust the validity of rules, codes and conventions, and we have confidence in others. The same goes for media and technical systems as we entrust them with our wishes and longings. One may hold a nagging doubt and suspicion about them, yet we feel an urge to keep faith with the apparatuses and their simulacra when we consign them to tell us a good story, to convey the truth, and to make our lives better, healthy, and wholesome. The group exhibition TRUST explores the aesthetics of this confidence by questioning its status, attempting to challenge the audience's convictions and by encouraging a reflected dialogue with machines and media. The works in the show point to the desires as well as the ethical and emotional dilemmas that arise from this attitude of trust. Seiko Mikami, Ariel Guzik, Joyce Hinterding, Sophie B?lair Cl?ment, Konrad Becker, HC Gilje, Verena Friedrich and Julien Maire will be attending the opening of the show. A catalogue accompanying the exhibition will be published on 19 August 2010 by Kehrer Verlag. Andreas Broeckmann, Stefan Riekeles and Thomas Munz (ed.).

August, 14 - 17 Uhr In Kooperation mit dem Edtih-Ru?-Haus f?r Medienkunst (ERHfM) und dem Ferienpass der Stadt Oldenburg f?hren am kommenden Sonntag Anke K?hl und Mareike Willer, Studentinnen des B.A. Materielle Kultur: Textil an der Carl von Ossietzky Universit?t, ein Vermittlungsprojekt zur Ausstellung *MyWar. Partizipation in Kriegszeiten* durch. Zusammen mit Jugendlichen diskutieren sie ausgew?hlte Arbeiten der Ausstellung. Nach einer Einf?hrung in digitale Bildbearbeitung besteht eine Aufgabe der Besucher/innen des Aktionstags darin, neue Interpretationen der Arbeit *Versions* von Oliver Laric herzustellen. Die Serie *Versions* selbst beruht auf einer manipulierten Fotografie, die im Juli 2008 von der iranischen Regierung als Beleg f?r den erfolgreichen Test neuer Langstreckenraketen und damit zur Demonstration ihrer Macht ver?ffentlicht wurde. Die Manipulation wurde via Internet schnell aufgedeckt und in verschiedenen Foren durch ?bertriebene Bildmontagen karikiert. Oliver Laric wiederrum sammelte das Original und die F?lschungen (jede der iranischen Regierung wie die der Internet?ffentlichkeit) und pr?sentiert sie in Oldenburg als analoge Airbrush-Bilder. Laric weist so zugleich auf die leichte Manipulierbarkeit digitaler Fotografie und auf die kritischen Potenziale der Netzkommunikation hin. In dem Projekt *B@droom* sind die Jugendlichen eingeladen, ihre eigene Sichtweise auf die Ausstellung und das Thema Krieg in Text und Bild darzustellen. Die entstandenen Kommentare werden anschlie?end auf ein Bett projiziert. Dieses Bett symbolisiert, wie Bilder vom Krieg gewollt oder ungewollt - ?ber Unterhaltungsmedien und Berichterstattung - in die Privatsph?re eindringen. Ziel ist es, den beteiligten Jugendlichen einen Raum anzubieten, um sich aktiv mit neueren Kriegen und ihren Darstellungen auseinanderzusetzen. Am 3. und 4. August 2010, jeweils von 14 - 17 Uhr werden die Ergebnisse des Aktionstags als Installation im Seminarraum des Edith-Ru?-Hauses zu sehen sein.

August 2010 Die Ausstellung zeigt k?nstlerische Arbeiten zu Repr?sentationen aktueller Kriege in der Medienkultur. Diese fragen nach den (moralischen) Effekten der sich aufl?senden Grenzen zwischen privat und ?ffentlich, pers?nlich und politisch. Individuelle k?nstlerische Auseinandersetzungen mit Kriegsbildern und Kriegserfahrungen stehen dabei ebenso im Fokus wie auch der Einfluss von digitalen Technologien auf die Verbreitung von Kriegsbildern und die aktuelle Kriegspraxis.

After an introduction by the organizers, Axel Volmar (University of Siegen), media theorist and researcher in the realm of sonic knowledge in the history of the 20th century and organizier of the symposium ?Auditive Medienkulturen? (Auditive Media Cultures) will kick off the series with some general remarks, thoughts and concepts of sonic theories and practices. Then artist Stephane Leonard will present his work ?Panorama?. Abstract Axel Volmar: Ideology and Sounddesign Why do we need a Sonic Theory and what is it good for? To open the discussion on the key questions of the oscillation series talks, Axel Volmar (Siegen/Bern/Berlin) will investigate some of the major characteristics of the modern soundscape. By presenting various audio and video examples, the talk will argue that the analysis of sounddesign practices should be central to a Sonic Theory, because designed sounds carry subtle ?messages? of specific ideological impact that influence the meaning of our sonic world. The talk will therefore trace conjunctions of ideology and sounddesign and will also discuss the role of digital audio art in this context. Profile of Axel Volmar Axel Volmar studied cultural sciences and media theory. His main focus of research is auditive culture and audiomedia. He has published various articles and essays investigating the temporality of media, the relation between sound and knowledge and the history of acoustics. Currently he is research associate at Uni Siegen where he has organised a symposium on auditive media culture which was dedicated to methods of interdisciplinary sound studies. Axel is the editor of the book ?Zeitkritische Medien? published in 2009. Description of artistic project ?Panorama? by Stephane Leonard: - sound installation for 7 speakers, computer, sound card and amplifier (2007) - composition for the Endliche Automaten ? Laptop Orchestra Berlin (2010) The 7 channel sound installation ?Panorama? is one piece spread out over 7 speakers. It has a length of 11:30 minutes and is played in a continues loop. The composition is based on a series of drawings about outer-space and the sound material was mostly made of recordings from outer-space. After some research on the internet I found a lot of recordings of cosmic storms, radio wave emissions from saturn, earth whistlers, electromagnetic fields, sky cyclones, etc. made by satellites. The NASA and other space organisations proved to be great sources for unique sound material. I later deconstructed and manipulated those sounds with the help of my self-coded software to integrate them into the composition. The piece opens the view upwards. Unknown sounds draw the listener inexorably deeper into the composition. The swelling of noise and the amount of overlapping tones make the listener come closer to the individual speakers to discover the individual elements within the wall of sound. The focus of the piece changes, depending on the position of the listener. It is almost like a constant search for the soloists inside a huge mass of sound ? a search for the uniqueness in the infinite variety of the cosmos. Profile of Stephane Leonard Stephane Leonard is a visual artist and musican. He has studied drawing under Professor Paco Kn?ller, a former student of the Joseph Beuys class. Leonard is a founding member of the naivsuper artist collective that publishes and promotes modern composers, adventurous music, art and books and the naivsuper film collective which makes films, music videos, documentaries and video installations. He is also a member of various music ensembles. His work has been shown in exhibitions in Berlin, New York, Hamburg, Bremen, Groningen, Neubrandenburg, Oslo, Bergen, Vienna, Z?rich, Massachusetts, Bangkok and the Kirgisien National Museum for Fine Arts.

Odysseys and Shipwrecks with Michel Serres: Summer Talks at the River Spree in Berlin On the occasion of the open air festival Wassermusik 2010 at the House of World Cultures in Berlin, French philosopher and former sailor Michel Serres will 'rock the boats' of our minds over the course of a two-day programme. Having gone to sea for ten years, Michel Serres prefers "himself to become the traveler who explores and discovers this third space between two separate spaces." A meandering, overflowing thinking is typical for his writings in which he philosophises about the world and the relation to self. Shortly before his 80th birthday, this visit to Berlin offers the rare chance to experience Michel Serres live in public! At the House of World Cultures, Michel Serres will converse with Catherine David, Lorenz Engell, and Alexander Kluge. On the second day he will present a specially conceived "Irrfahrt" (Odyssey) allowing for manifold insights into his way of thinking and working. Michel Serres, born in 1930, graduated from naval college and the Ecole normale sup?rieure in maths, literary studies and philosophy. He went to sea for more than ten years. Since 1969 he taught history of science at the Sorbonne and was a guest professor in Baltimore, Sao Paolo, Montreal, Buffalo. He still lectures as guest professor in Stanford. In 1990 he became a member of the Academie Fran?aise. PROGRAMME: Summer Talks Opening Friday, 30 July 2010, 7pm Keynote Lecture Michel Serres Followed by a conversation with Lorenz Engell Lorenz Engell is a professor of media philosophy at the Bauhaus University Weimar. Since 2008 he has been the Co-Director of the International Research Institute for Cultural Technologies and Media Philosophy (IKKM, Weimar). Serres + 1 #1: Catherine David Saturday, 31 July, 12pm In addition to numerous publications on the theory of science ? Michel Serres frequently writes texts on art, focusing particularly on the painters Vermeer, Turner and Carpaccio. In many works, he reconsiders relevant questions concerning the theory and practice of art: as a philosopher of relations, Serres goes beyond traditional knowledge systems and navigates undefined, interstitial spaces. Kicking off the second day, Catherine David will engage in a conversation with Michel Serres. Catherine David is an art historian, art mediator, curator of exhibitions such as: Documenta X, and has headed the project "Repr?sentations Contemporains Arabes" since 1998. In 2006, she curated the exhibition "Di/Visions. Culture and Politics in the Middle East? at the House of World Cultures, in June 2010 she was a Co-Curator of the Berlin Documentary Forum. Serres + 1 #2: Alexander Kluge Saturday, 31 July, 2pm "Sail towards the setting sun, until you see a certain small algae drifting in the water, as soon as the sea turns very, very blue, keep to the left." Angels, messengers, transmitters ? Mediators are what fascinate Michel Serres. Together with Alexander Kluge, he explores communication routines, modes of perception and intermediaries. In the process, both his mediality and the relationship of local to global take centre stage. Where are the landscapes and places in which thall the senses? Do we need a new language to describe it? Odyssey: Lecture Performance Saturday, 31 July, 7.30pm "We lack a great philosophy of mixtures and crossings." The philosopher offers the first public glimpse into his wandering mind. In the process, he reveals how he creates his texts that flow back and forth between literature, essay and philosophy. Using sounds from nature, Michel Serres develops the relation between science and music and offers a deeper insight into his wide-ranging work and thought.

[please forward to your colleagues!] DIGITAL'2010: PLANET EARTH 12th International Juried, Digital Print Exhibition organized by Art & Science Collaborations, Inc. (ASCI) to be held at the New York Hall of Science October 3, 2010 - January 31, 2011 ENTRY DEADLINE: August 16, 2010 Details & Submissions online only: http://www.asci.org/artikel1102.html INTRODUCTION Our blue planet, spinning like a jewel in our solar system, has been perceptually defined by the technology of each era, from believing the Earth was flat, to the scientific understanding that it spins on its axis and has gravitational pull, to being part of just one of many solar systems. In terms of scale, humans are too small to viscerally comprehend our planet's magnitude and the dynamics of its interconnected physical systems. We therefore break the concepts down into smaller parts, collect data and physical specimens of all kinds, and invent instruments to measure and track physical phenomena like earthquakes, tornados, and hurricanes. However, we still cannot grasp the "big picture" of planet Earth unless we read, look at photos, and finally. use our imagination to help envision/conceptualize it! We invite artists and scientists to submit original digital prints that reflect their perceptions of our planet. Are these perceptions changing as we learn more about Earth from explorers, scientists, and artists? What is the relationship between all living things and planet Earth? What images are evoked by calling it the blue planet or the peaceful planet or the changing planet? What is the human impact on the whole planet? What is our concern for its future? The museum furnishes the frames (18"x24"); If selected, just send your digital print(s) in a cardboard tube! Art & Science Collaborations, Inc.

MEGHÍVÓ SZOBORÁTADÓ ÜNNEPSÉGRE Tisztelt Sajtó, kedves Barátunk! Alulírottak, szeretettel meghívunk Alexander Schikowski: „Róbert és Robika” című szoboralkotásának nyilvános átadási ünnepségére Helyszín: Magyarországi Evangélikus Testvérközösség (MET) Megbékélés Haza Temploma kertjében, Budapest, III., Királyok útja és Hadriánus utca sarka Időpont: 2010. augusztus 3., kedd, de. 11 óra Háttér: Alexander Schikowski, Magyarországon élő német művész ezen tizenöt-mázsás tölgyfaszobrával kívánt emléket állítani az elmúlt évek roma áldozatainak. Az emlékmű a cigányságellenes terrorcselekmények áldozatai közül a Tatárszentgyörgyön agyonlőtt Csorba Róbert és Robika nevét viseli. Az alkotó a Pest megyei településen szerette volna felállítani a szobrot, s hiába csatlakozott a tervhez 150 neves magyar értelmiségi, a falu polgármestere és vezetése egyként utasította el a kezdeményezést. A MET Megbékélés Templomának kertjében méltó helyre kerül az emlékmű. Amelynek nem „avatási ünnepsége” lesz augusztus 3.- án,a kislétai gyilkos támadás egy éves évfordulóján, hanem „átadási”: a magyar társadalomnak, a köztársaság polgárainak adjuk át a műalkotást, hogy együtt emlékezzünk és gondolkodjunk: hová tart Magyarország?

At the same time new forms of methodologies inspired or powered by free software, participatory practices and peer-to-peer networks are fueling many Internet subcultures. Some of these emerging practices will lead to competitive social productions, while other will remain as pure artistic experiments. For example, a common hypothesis is that by adopting production and distribution methods based on free software and open standards and by sharing the sources of one's work with others, the collective knowledge base and aesthetic sensibilities can freely interact to explore uncharted, hybrid directions which no longer reflect the supremacy of a single idea. Such an assumption raises several questions: - Does the sharing of artworks "recipes" and tools help debunk the myth of the isolated design genius? - By leaving the possibility of ongoing development and refinement, is it possible to ever produce a "final" design? - Can these methods and technologies inspire new forms of creation or tools, beyond self-referential productions? - Is it wishful thinking to approach collaborative graphical design in the same way as an open source software project? - Is Free and Open Source licensing a catalyst for creation or does it add an extra level of complexity? - Can the limitation of one license trigger new forms of constrained creativity? We're currently seeking new, innovative media art and design works and projects focusing on the above theme and questions: - graphical artworks and installations - lectures - project presentations - software and hardware demos We're also seeking audiovisual performances that will take place during the festival evenings. The submitted projects must fit this focus and be made in a free/libre and open source environment, this includes both its optional dependencies or production tools and the operating system. We are asking you to publish the sources of your project under a free culture license of your choice or release it into the public domain. Projects that do not meet these criteria will not be considered. How to apply Submission form and a list of additional requirements are available at: http://makeart.goto10.org/call/ Extended deadline: *Monday 2nd August 2010* Incomplete or late applications will not be processed.

The aim of this study is to cooperate with international performance art festivals and art institutions in order to provide a comprehensive teaching program for art students and young performers, which leads up to the development of an individual or group performance at the end. The ten days long intensive studies always focus on a specific theme or occasion. This year, PAS will take place in cooperation with Grimmuseum in the context of the EXTENSION SERIES, a regular performance program curated by Andr?s Galeano. Extension Series focuses on emerging and established international artists who are researching the frontiers of performance art and try with an innovative way to extend the traditional elements of a performance: space, time, artist body, actions, objects, and the relationship with the audience. These questions and many more are the focus of the work in these days with the goal to create an individual performance. Participants will use their body as a tool to communicate through images they create by putting themselves in relation to space and time, study the atmosphere of their surroundings, the energy of the other participants and form, the visual equivalents, leading to an artistic performance. What they have to say, you can see at the presentation of the developed performances in the final presentations on 16 and 17 July 2010 live to see in the Grim Museum: More information on Performance Art Studies: BBB Johannes Deimling www.bbbjohannesdeimling.de, bbb@bbbjohannesdeimling.de more information on Grimmuseum: Despina Stokou, stokou@grimmuseum.com www.grimmuseum.com photos of PAS previous days: http://www.flickr.com/photos/47487356@N08/sets/72157624476144738/show/ Grimmuseum Fichte Str 2 10967 Berlin Wed-Sun 14-19h www.grimmuseum.com From info at toshare.it Mon Jul 19 16:10:42 2010 From: info at toshare.it (Piemonte Share) Date: Fri Aug 13 10:29:54 2010 Subject: [spectre] OMM alla Fondazione Peccioli per l'Arte Message-ID: <724$1279548605@mailforce.it> -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Tribunei Nr. 6, Sibiu Vernisaj: 6 august, 13.30 Cu un drink follow up alaturi de curator de la 21.00 in Bohemian Flow, Piata Mica 26, Sibiu. Curator: Andrei Craciun Participanti: Etcetera presents the International Errorists (AR), Rainer Ganahl (A/US), Ciprian Homorodean (RO/BE), Martin Krenn (A), Ahmet Ogut (TR/NL), Catalina Niculescu (RO/UK) Publicatie: "Destroing Public Harmony", 64 pagini, Ro/En. Cu texte de Andrei Craciun, Doina Petrescu and Rainer Ganhl Armonia sociala este problematica la nivelul responsabilitatii sociale si al implicarii individului in comunitate. Dincolo de etimologiile cuvantului si plaja variata de sensuri ale armoniei sociale, modul de a actiona al individului in comunitate trebuie sa respecte toate criteriile, dogmele si standardele morale impuse pentru ca input-ul sa nu deranjeze bunastarea sociala (dictata de binele comun). Armonia sociala este un termen vast, complicat si cu multe subterfugii si gasesc interesant de urmarit momentul intrarilor/iesirilor dintr-un grup uman compact si modalitatea an care aceste turbulente modifica caracterul general al notiunii. Destroing Public Harmony, utilizandu-se de caracterul aparent utopic, vag si compromis, al notiunii de armonie, sub umbrela diversitatii de sensuri atribuite, asi propune sa intervina an cadrul unei comunitati armonioase, Sibiul, creand o platforma care sa dezbata conditiile an care publicul se manifesta an comunitatea sa, precum si modalitatea in care el este dispus la contra-armonie, fie ea revolutie, revolta, spaima sociala, neliniste. Distrugand o aparenta armonie sociala nu riscam nimic, ca cetateni avem dreptul la rasfrangere, revolta si razbunare impotriva comunitatii, bisericii, statului s.a.m.d. Avem interdictii, reguli si standarde sigur, dar nu mai avem prevederi, avem sentimente morale, dar nu mai suntem datori, ne-am impacat cu Iisus, dar nu mai avem predici despre datoria omului si a cetateanului. Nu traim intr-o societate in care totul este permis, ci intr-o societate a unei ?morale fara obligatie si fara sanctiune? (Jean-Marie Guyau ) Noi nu este pluralul lui eu, nu este un rezultat de insumare. Relatia cu Celalalt nu este ireversibila, si este in mod esential neegala: ?Eu are intotdeauna o responsabilitate mai mare decat a tuturor." (Emanuel Levinas). Exista un razboi intre eu si lume. intotdeauna lumea va castiga. Armonia sociala este intangibila si prin urmare invincibila.

Tribunei Nr. 6, Sibiu Opening: 6 August, 13.30 With a drink follow up with the curator from 21.00 in Bohemian Flow, Piata Mica 26, Sibiu. Curator: Andrei Craciun Participants: Etcetera presents the International Errorists (AR), Rainer Ganahl (A/US), Ciprian Homorodean (RO/BE), Martin Krenn (A), Ahmet Ogut (TR/NL), Catalina Niculescu (RO/UK) Social harmony is problematic when it comes to social responsibility and individual engagement within the community. Beyond the word's etymology and the wide range of meanings of social harmony, individual action in the community must respect all the imposed criteria, dogmas and moral standards for the input not to disturb the social well-being (dictated by the common good). Social harmony is a vast and complicated term, containing many subtexts and I find it interesting to watch the moment of entry/exit into and from a compact group of people and the way in which these disturbances modify the general character of the concept. Destroying Public Harmony, using the apparently utopian, vague and compromised character of the concept of harmony, taking into account the diversity of assigned meanings, proposes to intervene inside a harmonious community, Sibiu, creating a platform that would debate the conditions in which the public manifests inside its community, as well as the way it is open to counter-harmony, whatever it may be, revolution, revolt, social unrest, turmoil. By destroying an apparent social harmony we don't risk anything, as citizens we have the right to rebel, revolt and avenge against the community, church, state etc. We have interdictions, rules and standards, of course, but we no longer have provisions, we have moral feelings, but we are no longer indebted, we have made peace with Jesus, but we no longer have sermons on the duty of man and citizen. We don't live in a society where everything is permitted, but in a society of a "moral without obligation or sanction" (Jean-Marie Guyau ) We is not the plural of I, it isn't the result of an addition. The relationship with the other isn't reversible and is essentially unequal: "I has always a greater responsibility than everybody else" (Emanuel Levinas). There is a war between I and the world. The world will always win. Social harmony is intangible and therefore, invincible. (Extras from the text "Destroing Public Harmony" by Andrei Craciun, published in the publication of the exhibition).
