[adam]

hi,

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in presenting WOS at ISEA via a remote connection? The information about the symposium is below, would be great as a 
promo for the event also....

ISEA (International Symposium on Electronic Art)2006, an international conference held in conjunction with ZeroOne San Jose: A Global Festival of art on the Edge, 
will be held in San Jose, CA, August 7-13 2006. Both events are "situated at the critical intersection of art and technology." ISEA2006 re:mote is a symposium 
within ISEA2006 and is issuing a Call for Proposals.


ISEA2006 re:mote, August 10-12, 2006

International new media art discourse is stimulated by festivals and events like ISEA2006 which form temporary cultural centers to represent, present and discuss 
networked and digital technologies. However by forming temporary centers we also tacitly create a notion of a periphery - with temporary centers also come temporary 
peripheries. In new media culture this is a paradox as much new media art, theory, and discourse reflects on the network itself and the elusiveness and redundancy 
of centers and peripheries.

ISEA2006 re:mote attempts to dissuade us from imposing these distinctions by providing a platform for artists, commentators, curators, performers and theorists to 
participate in ISEA 2006 via online and pre-recorded media.

ISEA2006 re:mote Open Call

ISEA2006 re:mote is inviting media spaces and individual artists, theorists, and curators from around the world to speak  or perform via remote technologies to the 
audience at ISEA. Presentations to be directed at the four themes of ISEA 2006. Participants are invited to present or perform on topics included within the ISEA 
symposium, and onsite audience interaction with the presenters is also encouraged. ISEA re:mote will focus on presenting media spaces and people that would 
otherwise be excluded from presenting their work at ISEA due to financial, political, or logistical reasons.

The length of each presentation can be negotiated, however, for now we have set the maximum time limit of 20 minutes. Technologies used will be up to each 
presenter, the premise is that the technologies should be easy for you to use and access and  ISEA2006 re:mote will manage the corresponding technology requirements 
as much as possible onsite at ISEA2006.  Live and pre-recorded material can be included. Live presentations could use any available technlogies including voice 
technologies such as Skype/OpenWengo/Gizmo/Linphone/Ekiga or other softphones, audio or video streams, video conferencing with softwares like 
ichatAV/Ekiga/Skype/OpenWengo, web cams, shared desktops using softwares like VNC/RemotePC or Remote Desktop, text chats such as irc or webchats, avatar 
environments, gaming environments, or even the telephone! In situations where your available bandwidth is limited or restricted, delivery of digital presentation 
material (audio/video) can be delivered electronically or posted by traditional mail. In all situations online presence of the presenters would be beneficial, this 
may take the form of IM, irc or other text based chat technologies if 'realtime' audio or video communications are not possible. Creative use of remote presentation 
technologies is encouraged!

Time slots have to be negotiated, but we are willing to bend as much as we can to include as many people as possible from various time zones. Unfortunately there 
are no honoraria available for this event.

ISEA2006 will feature four themes: Interactive City, Community Domain, Transvergence, and Pacific Rim. Please see the following links for further information on 
each on the themes:
