<div>We had a great Placart-Headphone-Festival this saturday at museum "Leerer Beutel" / Regensburg (GER). Under the wonderful direction of Miulew Takahe ( Björn Errikson ) many soundartists performed amazing music by streaming for many visitors and audience all around the world and Second Life. This event was part of Pomodoro Bolzano´s exhibition xxxtenxion - dresscode avatar wich is running until september 2. Check out the latest shots about placart and dresscode-avatar here. <br/>http://www.flickr.com/search/show/?q=dresscode+avatar&amp;w=31078851%40N00 <br/>http://www.leplacard.org/2007/Plac.Art.X/ <br/>http://xxxtenxion.blogspot.com</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>(thx to marc garrett for distributing this on NetBehaviour mailing list) <br/> <br/>The Visible Man: An FBI Target Puts His Whole Life Online. <br/> <br/>Hasan Elahi whips out his Samsung Pocket PC phone and shows me how he's <br/>keeping himself out of Guantanamo. He swivels the camera lens around and <br/>snaps a picture of the Manhattan Starbucks where we're drinking coffee. <br/>Then he squints and pecks at the phone's touchscreen. "OK! It's <br/>uploading now," says the cheery, 35-year-old artist and Rutgers <br/>professor, whose bleached-blond hair complements his fluorescent-green <br/>pants. "It'll go public in a few seconds." Sure enough, a moment later <br/>the shot appears on the front page of his Web site, TrackingTransience.net. <br/> <br/>There are already tons of pictures there. Elahi will post about a <br/>hundred today — the rooms he sat in, the food he ate, the coffees he <br/>ordered. Poke around his site and you'll find more than 20,000 images <br/>stretching back three years. Elahi has documented nearly every waking <br/>hour of his life during that time. He posts copies of every debit card <br/>transaction, so you can see what he bought, where, and when. A GPS <br/>device in his pocket reports his real-time physical location on a map. <br/> <br/>Elahi's site is the perfect alibi. Or an audacious art project. Or both. <br/>The Bangladeshi-born American says the US government mistakenly listed <br/>him on its terrorist watch list — and once you're on, it's hard to get <br/>off. To convince the Feds of his innocence, Elahi has made his life an <br/>open book. Whenever they want, officials can go to his site and see <br/>where he is and what he's doing. Indeed, his server logs show hits from <br/>the Pentagon, the Secretary of Defense, and the Executive Office of the <br/>President, among others. <br/> <br/>http://www.wired.com/techbiz/people/magazine/15-06/ps_transparency</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>We (Pomodoro Bolzano) did our first intercontinental cyberhappening those days, included to the "mobility"-exhibition at Regensburg/Germany. In real there are six cargo-container filled with art of three german artists and three czech artists. Our part was a virtual abstract rebuild of the historic place where the container are placed, called Haidplatz. We re-built it in Second Life, a big virtual world and the seriously beginning cyberspace for all of us. We rented over 4000 sqm land on a popular island for artists, called Odyssey. At this surreal place Pomodoro Bolzano, our media-art-group celebrate happenings around experimental sound art with many artists from all over the world. In the first days of exhibition we had so much interested visitors in "Real Life" and also "Second Life". The "Avatar Orchestra Metaverse" will do a great experimental concert this saturday there and i am thrilled by looking forward to this.

<div>Mobile and ubiquitous—no longer just here and now, but being present wherever you want to be, whenever you want to be. These long-nurtured yearnings that have been projected so euphorically onto new technologies have now materialized into the reality of our time. A reality that is woven from a network in which every user is a node, every exit simultaneously an entrance, every receiver a transmitter too. <br/> <br/>At any time, at any place, we’re capable of switching into telematic action mode, of reaching anyone and being accessible by all. With the aid of our avatars, blogs and tags, we assume digital form and adopt more or less imaginative second identities. Emerging at a rapid clip are completely new types of the public sphere featuring new rules of play and (sometimes even) new hierarchies. But it’s not merely technology, information and communication that have become omnipresent. To a much greater extent, it’s we ourselves: traceable at all times and anywhere via our cellphone’s digital signature that makes it possible to pinpoint our location to within a few meters; classifiable via the detailed and comprehensive personality profiles that we unwittingly leave behind as the traces of all our outings in digital domains. <br/>What’s occurring in the wake of these developments is a far-reaching repositioning and reevaluation of the political, cultural and economic meaning of the public and private spheres. <br/>Goodbye Privacy <br/> <br/>“Goodbye Privacy” is the theme of this year’s Ars Electronica, the festival extraordinaire of art, technology and society in Linz, Austria. September 5–11, 2007, the focus will be on these late-breaking phenomena of a new culture of everyday life being played out between angst-inducing scenarios of seamless surveillance and the zest we bring to staging our public personas via digital media. <br/> <br/>In Ars Electronica’s inimitable fashion, elaborations in the form of symposia, exhibits, performances and interventions will proliferate beyond the confines of conference halls and exhibition spaces, and spread across the whole city. <br/>Artists, experienced network nomads, theoreticians, technologists and legal scholars will approach this year’s theme from quite different perspectives: <br/> <br/> * What do we have at our disposal to counter the intrusions of control and surveillance technologies? <br/> * How can the new cultural paradigms of Web 2.0 communities be made to generate social dynamics that can also display relevance in the real world? <br/> * How can we prevent the loss of individual control over our digital personas? <br/> * What sorts of new strategies are there to reinvent privacy in the transparent world of digital media? <br/> * How can we shatter the pre-configured virtual public spheres of the entertainment industries and mold new ones ourselves? <br/> * How can we bring the entire cultural diversity of our societies to bear in these newly emerging public, social realms? <br/> <br/>Regardless of whether this is a matter of the interior spaces and city squares of the real public sphere or the new public domain of digital networks-the network of cameras, biometric sensors, RFIDs, log files, Trojans, etc. is becoming ever more tightly woven. Immense databases and highly developed algorithms automatically interlinking and evaluating all these traces consummate this new dimension of surveillance. But it’s not just the depth of field and high resolution of this digital reconnaissance that’s significant in this context; it’s also the fact that access to the necessary technologies and the compiled data is increasingly shifting out of the purview of official state-authorities and into the hands of commercial and individual interests. <br/>And we thus find ourselves once again in a state of peculiar ambivalence: Showcasing ones customized persona, staging ones own image is the order of the day. Go public and feature yourself or its GAME OVER! The individualization and personalization of online media once constituted a countervailing world juxtaposed to the formula-driven, homogenized public sphere of the electronic mass media, but in the age of Second Life,MySpace and YouTube, individualization is now mainstream and the search is afoot for the next upgrade, for what awaits us in the aftermath of the self-invention/self-promotion hype of the Web 2.0 epoch. <br/>Once we dismiss the cul-de-sac of a purely rejectionist stance and get on with the search for suitable forms of subculture, things start to get interesting indeed. After all, the Digital Revolution is something with which we’ve grown quite familiar, but what in the world might be in store when the Digital Rebellion breaks out? <br/>Gerfried Stocker, Christine Schöpf <br/> <br/>The 2007 Ars Electronica Symposium will be curated by Ina Zwerger and Armin Medosch. <br/>Ina Zwergers is science editor at the ORF – Austrian Broadcasting Company’s radio station OE1. <br/>Armin Medosch is an artist and author. <br/> <br/>We publicize our view of the world and of ourselves in weblogs and at sites like Flickr,MySpace and YouTube.Many of the services that are being marketed under the banner of Web 2.0 are based on network linkup, exchange and the voluntary revelation of private information. With the emergence of this new “public life,” the value of that which is private has changed. Thus, there are indeed more and better forms of participation, but the staging of the private sphere before a mass public reduces the cultural status ascribed to it. At the same time, there's a bull market in detailed information about private individuals. The automatically analyzable data traces we leave behind give rise not only to new service industries but also to the architecture of surveillance and control. Figures, data and quantifiability have long since become conventional means of social selection and organization. Are we well on the way to a transparent society? Or is this hymn in praise of the new openness precisely what is paving the way for the abuse of power behind the scenes? This year’s Ars Electronica symposium will scrutinize this updated private sphere under the new conditions of terrorism and Web 2.0. <br/>Ina Zwerger, Armin Medosch <br/>Fundamental Rights in the Digital Age, September 5–6, 2007 <br/> <br/>One highlight of the 2007 Ars Electronica lineup is “Fundamental Rights in the Digital Age,” a conference being organized by the Association of Austrian Judges in cooperation with Ars Electronica. In accordance with Ars Electronica’s mission of fostering a wideranging discussion of current issues of great importance in art, technology and society, a transdisciplinary process of exchange among legal experts, IT specialists and artists will play a major role. <br/> <br/>http://www.aec.at/en/festival2007/index.asp <br/></div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>BYTES &amp; BODIES – Of Real Bodies in Digital Spaces <br/> <br/>Ars Electronica is the featured guest at this year's donumenta from September 23 to October 15, 2006 in Regensburg, Germany. This exhibition will showcase selected works by media artists from Austria and many other countries, including computer-animated films, interactive installations, code art, network projects and even a work featuring genetically modified bacteria... <br/> <br/>... The accompanying program of events includes a one-day symposium on the exhibition theme. <br/>The aim of “BYTES &amp; BODIES – Of Real Bodies in Digital Spaces” is to shed light on how digitization is influencing our society and culture. At the center of attention is the question of the essence of the resulting circumstances and relations prevailing between human and computer, computer and computer, human and human—interrelationships and reciprocal impacts that are being redefined and reformulated under the influence of digital communications media. <br/> <br/>read more :: http://www.aec.at/donumenta/en/index.html</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 2 replies </div>

<div>Arduino is an open-source physical computing platform based on a simple i/o board, and a development environment for writing Arduino software. The Arduino programming language is an implementation of Wiring, itself built on Processing. http://tribes.tribe.net/arduino <br/> <br/>Arduino can be used to develop interactive objects, taking inputs from a variety of switches or sensors, and controlling a variety of lights, motors, and other outputs. Arduino projects can be stand-alone, or they can be communicate with software running on your computer (e.g. Flash, Processing, MaxMSP.) The boards can be assembled by hand or purchased preassembled; the open-source IDE can be downloaded for free. <br/> <br/>Arduino received an Honory Mention in the Digital Communities section of the 2006 Ars Electronica Prix. <br/></div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>Before my trip to the countryside part of this ars i´ve passed by the O.K Center. For sure allways a highlight concerning interaction and accessibility of cyber art. my personal fav´s : <br/>- Graffiti Research Lab by Evan Roth, James Powderly and the agents of G.R.L. (Eyebeam Open Lab, US). Take the chance to visit http://graffitiresearchlab.com ( They won the Award of Distinction Interactive Art , Prix 2006) <br/>i could find various signs and stickers from them in town .. thats viral and live! <br/>- Khronos Projector by Alvaro Cassinelli (UY/IT). <br/>have a look at http://www.k2.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/members/alvaro/Khronos/ <br/>( Honorary Mention Interactive Art , Prix 2006) . <br/>and <br/>Yokomono by Carsten Stabenow (DE) and Geert-Jan Hobijn (NL) / staalplaat soundsystem.

<div>After the festival check in i´ve got my first kick through the Mobile City - project ´Regrets´. It´s hard to find out a senseful regret by chance, especially during a magnificiant event like ars electronica. Like allways i´ve found the best one´s after the show at the red crab - The bar of the festival 2006. Pass by! This bar seems to be the meeting point at midnight / dj-lines from finland and austria try to keep up the friends of this ars. <br/>more facts and thoughts - tomorrow.

<div>SIMPLICITY—the pipedream of a society dominated by technical revolutions, global networks and inundations of information from mass media? The mantra of a new generation of user-centered information designers? Dogma of technophobic naysayers to progress? Or merely the—as yet unfulfilled promise of IT companies? There has been nary a concept of late that has been laid claim to in so many different quarters, and none that delivers such a trenchant reading of the vital signs of our times. <br/>So then: just how are we to cope with the increasing degree of complexity in the reality we inhabit? How can we tap and utilize the potential of global communication and realtime-access to information and ideas, to people and markets in an efficient as well as responsible way? <br/>How can we develop flexible, adaptable systems, devices and programs that are responsive to our strengths and intuitive capabilities, to support our activities in complex contexts? <br/>Which options and features could we possibly do without? And which would we be only too glad to dispense with? <br/>SIMPLICITY is not the opposite of complexity; rather, it is its complementary key, the formula that permits us to access and utilize the polyvalencies of virtual realities and global knowledge networks. <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/>Isn’t it odd that we are incessantly at work developing new technologies meant to simplify our lives and labours, and yet in the final analysis we are left with the impression that everything’s gotten a lot more complicated? <br/> <br/>An investigation of the essence of simplicity must necessarily get involved with the psychology of human-machine interaction.Why do we display such a strong proclivity to regarding technology as an externally imposed authority, to condemning or venerating it? Why is it so hard to maintain a dispassionate working relationship with high tech? Isn't it rather the case that complexity (supposed or actual) is often just a convenient excuse for delegating responsibility? Our highest-priority need is not technological competence but rather the social competence that’s called for in making the decisions about deploying technologies.We have to make an active effort to acquire this competence. <br/> <br/>Simplicity begins, of course, with usability. The wish for user-friendly devices and programs is fervent and widespread.We will realize how justified it is when we inspect the plethora of shabbily designed user interfaces that hit the retail shelves in ever-shorter marketing cycles. So even as the writers of advertising- copy are busy ballyhooing the latest results of their company's purported fixation on user experience and user-centered design, the reality that we, the ones who have actually purchased these applications, are familiar with is, sadly, a different one. How very often we wish that industrial designers would pay more frequent courtesy calls on media artists and soak up a bit of the ambient inspiration during their visits! <br/> <br/>Among the things in which human beings identify consummate artistry are the highly complex elements of nature. For centuries, models based on this elegant simplicity have been the objective and the standard of measurement for scientific as well as artistic achievement. <br/> <br/>If we merely equate simplicity with simplification and reduction, simply let the technology become “invisible”, we not only manifest our inability to even recognize the type and extent of the technological deployment, but we also relinquish the ability to perceive its consequences and side effects. In doing so, we cheat ourselves out of not only our capacity for self-determination but also the possibility of fully utilizing technology's capabilities. But simplicity is significantly more than that. If this truly is a matter of technology suitable for use by human beings, then this also involves a cultural attitude and political stance towards technology, towards the issue of our autonomy and self-determination in dealing with technology and in designing the conditions of our interaction with technological systems. In large portions of our planet’s surface, though, simplicity is also a matter of technology that's affordable, that can withstand some punishment, can stay on the job even at 105° in the shade, and that doesn't need to make a pit stop at an electrical outlet every two hours. <br/> <br/>Technology is not a force of nature. It has been made to work by humankind—so it should also be possible to make it work for humankind. <br/> <br/>The interfaces and front lines between human and machine are the domain of artistic work that reflects the framework conditions of this liaison: in that artists create their own tools to translate between the languages of the arts and those of the machines; in that they reject industry norms and their closed systems and adopt the practices of open source and the creative commons instead; in that they defend free zones, set up portals, and create alternative models and prototypes. The strategies that result from these activities and approaches to dealing with complexity will be presented at this year's Ars Electronica Festival by artists, industrial- and software designers and scientists in symposia and addresses, exhibitions and installations, concerts and performances, workshops and seminars, and artistic interventions in public spaces throughout the city. <br/> <br/>Don’t be afraid, upgrade to simplicity! <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/>Gerfried Stocker <br/> <br/>Festival Director</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 1 reply </div>

<div> <br/>Hey Guys, <br/> <br/>We just published the 2006 Telefilm New Voices Call for Submissions at our website - its a PDF you can download from http://www.dx.org/digifest . <br/> <br/>Here's some info: <br/> <br/>-- <br/> <br/>digifest has gone mod! The ‘mod’ theme - short for modern in the ‘60s - and currently used to mean modification - reveals inspiring and surprising innovations in digital design, art and cultural expression. <br/> <br/>We invite you to participate in digifest 2006: mods, an interdisciplinary festival of the best in innovative new media, art and design from Canada and abroad. This year participants will have the opportunity to express the individual’s role within larger systems, be they political, social or corporate, through their own unique and personalized modifications to off-the-shelf products. Modification possibilities may range from personal computers to clothing; from podcasts to public space; from video games and cell phones to cars or dwellings. The do-it-yourself aspect of this year’s digifest means that the range of modifications is endless, with creativity leading the way in unconventional expression. <br/> <br/>Each year 8-12 winners of the juried digifest New Voices call are invited to Toronto, Canada to showcase their work at one of digifest’s high-profile venues, which include Harbourfront Centre, Ontario Science Centre and Design Exchange. In 2006 we will showcase the most innovative transitions in product design from “modern” to “modification.” Work by selected presenters will be installed or displayed.

<div>'Hybrid - living in paradox' has featured a profusion of events, conferences, symposia, exhibitions and performances that, taken together, amounts to a comprehensive look at the state of the art of global media culture. The Festival has met with an overwhelmingly enthusiastic response on the part of local and international visitors. <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/>Linz (September 6, 2005). With 'Hybrid - living in paradox' as their overarching theme, artists, theoreticians, scientists and festivalgoers from all over the world have spent the last seven days in Linz presenting and discussing recent developments of phenomena of media culture and their prospects for the future. <br/> <br/>"Attendance numbers were remarkably high this year, and the attendees' confrontation with the Festival's gist and content was also on an impressively high level," according to Ars Electronica Artistic Director Gerfried Stocker. "Ars Electronica has once again succeeded in showcasing the breadth of media art and underscoring its significance for our time." <br/> <br/>Just as in 2003 and 2004, the events on this year's lineup were very well attended. There were highly positive reactions to the Ars Electronica Gala's exhilarating new format that keeps the spotlight of attention shining right where it belongs: on the artists and their prizewinning works. The performances of "Gezgin" as well as the "Listening between the Lines" concert were sold out. The results: audience ovations and rave reviews. <br/>Strong interest on the part of local attendees and international guests alike was focused on Linz's Main Square (Hauptplatz), the site of the exhibition of Theo Jansen's "Strandbeest" sculptures and a host of other activities. Another smash hit was "Suspended Engines," the opening event set in quite an unusual location: the Linz assembly shop of the Austrian Federal Railways' Technical Services. The premiere of the Animation Festival, a new "festival within the Festival" focusing on computer animation, got thumbs up from a packed house. <br/> <br/>But public interest wasn't just limited to the soirées, screenings and events; the symposia and conferences were very well attended too. The astonishing lineup of exhibitions in the Brucknerhaus, the O.K. Center for Contemporary Art, the Ars Electronica Center, Linz's University of Artistic and Industrial Design, the Lentos Museum of Art as well as outdoors in public settings was a big draw. And two new venues-Architekturforum Oberösterreich and Landesgalerie Linz-also attracted large crowds. <br/> <br/>There was a lot of positive feedback about the rearrangement of the Festival program to run from Thursday to Tuesday, which makes it possible to take maximum advantage of the entire weekend. <br/> <br/>33.000 visitors, 453 participants from a total of 26 countries, 532 journalists from a total of 35 countries, as well as a dazzling array of projects developed in collaboration with partner universities and guest curators underscore Ars Electronica's ongoing success in making a name for itself worldwide.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>You can experience the outstanding works by the 2005 Prix Ars Electronica prizewinners at the O.K Center for Contemporary Art. <br/> <br/>In the CyberArts 2005 Exhibition, a series of interactive installations from the Interactive Art and Digital Musics categories await visitors’ discovery and hands-on experimentation. The featured work is “MILKproject,” which follows shipments of milk being transported from Latvian dairy farmers to consumers in the Netherlands, and spotlights the stories and ways of life of the human beings involved in this logistic chain. Ieva Auzina, Esther Polak and the Riga Center for New Media Culture have been honored with the Golden Nica in the Interactive Art category for this installation. <br/> <br/>At the Prix Ars Electronica Forums, artists and jurors will present the works singled out for recognition in this year’s competition. Audio and video material will elaborate on the prizewinning projects; this will be followed by a discussion during which speakers will take questions from the audience. <br/> <br/>The Golden Nicas, Awards of Distinction and Honorary Mentions will be presented to the artists at the Ars Electronica Gala on September 2, 2005 in Linz’s Brucknerhaus. <br/> <br/>Check out: <br/> <br/>http://www.aec.at/en/prix/index.asp?nocache=445281</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>Incredible performances, cool events and extraordinary concerts make Ars Electronica a festival beyond compare. And the annual excitement is about to happen one more time! <br/> <br/>The “Art Walk” on the first day of the festival will let you accompany artists and curators to the openings of the individual exhibitions and obtain interesting insights into their work. <br/> <br/>That evening, the Austrian Federal Railway’s Linz assembly shop will be the venue of “Suspended Engines,” the Ars Electronica opening party featuring DJs from Austria, India and Turkey. This is a one-of-a-kind setting for festivalgoers to celebrate the kickoff of a great festival week. <br/> <br/>The highlight of the evening is a performance entitled “Emotional Traffic” by Maurice Benayoun and Jean Baptiste Barrière. Google search results are used as the basis of establishing a multifaceted emotional landscape on the part of the Internet and its users. From these data, the artists generate the visual and musical material that flows into their performance. <br/> <br/>Like every year, the highpoint of the week is the Ars Electronica Gala in Linz’s Brucknerhaus. This evening is totally dedicated to the artists and the 2005 Prix Ars Electronica prizewinners—the recipients of the Golden Nicas, Awards of Distinction and Honorary Mentions. <br/> <br/>The awards ceremony in the “u19 – freestyle computing” category for young people will be held in the Ars Electronica Center. The trophies and certificates will be handed over to the winners, and the up-and-coming young artists will present their projects. <br/> <br/>The historical anniversaries and commemorations that Austria is marking in 2005 are the centerpiece of this year’s Visualized Klangwolke in the park along the banks of the Danube. Lawine Torrén, artist Hubert Lepka’s crew, will stage a remarkable spectacle entitled “Partition at the River.” <br/> <br/>A very special concert evening is in store for festivalgoers attending “Listening between the Lines”: five hours, three concert halls, a full-size orchestra, Dolby 8.1, high-definition projections ... ideal preconditions for an intensive sensory passage through all stages at the interface of sound, code, music and visuals. <br/> <br/>In “Secret Tribe” at the Brucknerhaus, Mercan Dede presents his superb new style of music that blends Near Eastern tonal traditions and digital sounds. <br/> <br/>Associates of the Art University of Linz’s newly founded Institute for Interface Culture utilize realtime interfaces as musical instruments and demonstrate the results in live presentations and performances at the Ars Electronica Center. <br/> <br/>Linz’s Main Square will be the focal point of “Hotspot.” This event will be the big kick-off of the City of Linz’s pioneering wireless LAN initiative. By 2008, several hundred public “hotspots” are to be set up throughout the city to provide free wireless Internet access for all. Parallel to these technical improvements, Linz will be launching a series of projects and initiatives to nurture youth culture and to enhance the quality of life in the neighborhoods. On the occasion of this project’s premiere, a virtual guest book linking up the individual neighborhoods with downtown is being installed on the Main Square. Everyone will be able to exchange pictures and comments via the Internet, notebook, PDA or cell phone, and make a contribution to this diary of the City of Linz. <br/> <br/>“Hyprex” is the grand finale of this year’s Ars Electronica Festival. Good music and high-spirited revelry will bring down the curtain on the festival week and send everybody home feeling just fine, thank you!</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>"Hybrid Clusters" and "Paradox Encounters" are the themes of the electrolobby and the electrolobby-Kitchen in 2005. <br/> <br/>In the electrolobby, the festival’s "Hybrid" theme is implemented as a working principle. This year, lobby-dwellers will be intensely scrutinizing media activism in Italy, Digital Divide policymaking in India and the issue of openness in the context of free software, free access and open cultures. There will also be a special focus on "Art Feeds Hybridization". <br/> <br/>The electrolobby-Kitchen is dedicated to "Paradox Encounters" and thus provides a forum for fascinating conversations dealing with re-contextualization and re-mixing of disciplines, backgrounds and points of view.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>Hybrid–living in paradox <br/>Read the programmatic statement on this year´s Festival by the artistic directors of Ars Electronica. <br/> <br/>HYBRID—living in paradox, the theme of Ars Electronica 2005, examines the implosive tendencies that digital technologies impose on the world, bringing cultures on top of each other and flouting boundaries: national, material, technological and psychological. Hybrid creations and creatures, identities and cultures emerge from recombinations of our three basic codes: numeric, genetic and atomic. <br/> <br/>Digital media art itself is a hybrid born from the connection of art and technology, accumulating diverse modes of expression and demanding a unique crossover of expertise and knowledge. <br/> <br/>Hybrid—no other word is better able to signify this most characteristic conditions of our time. <br/>- The Drivers and Patterns of Hybridization <br/>- Hybrid Economies and Politics <br/>- Hybrid Cultures and Identities <br/>- Hybrid Creatures and Ecologies <br/> <br/>These are the four main areas on which the festival will focus in symposia and artists’ lectures, exhibitions and installations, concerts and performances, workshops and seminars, and artistic interventions in public spaces all around the city. <br/> <br/>Since 1979, Ars Electronica has been dedicated to the critical discussion of and reflection upon media culture. With its focal point situated at the intersection of art, technology and society, it is above all the endeavor to nurture up-close-and-personal encounters involving artists, designers, philosophers, sociologists, engineers and scientists from all over the world that endow the Festival with its very special character. <br/> <br/>This is not solely a matter of the computer as an artistic medium but, above all, of testing how new ideas that are emerging from artistic practice can be applied to science and society in an effort to influence the way in which new technologies are developed, designed and utilized. <br/> <br/>Gerfried Stocker, Christine Schöpf (Directors Ars Electronica) <br/> <br/> <br/>HYBRID—no other term provides such a consummately appropriate and comprehensive description of the highly paradoxical current state of our world, one that is characterized by interrelationships that, among other things, are extraordinarily contradictory while at the same time displaying superb operative effectiveness: <br/> <br/>- Annulments of boundaries, mergers, fusions and crossovers resulting in new economic and political coalitions and alliances, as well as interdisciplinary collaboration in the arts and sciences. <br/>- Global cultural amalgamations as outgrowths of the worldwide circulation of people and products, as well as systems of signs and bodies of information. <br/>- Symbolic as well as physical penetration of the human body by machinery ranging from bionic prostheses and neuro-implants to cyborgs and trans-genetic chimera. <br/>- Sampling, collage and re-mix techniques, as well as consistent cross-compilation and re-contextualization of the means, forms and genres of artistic expression. <br/>- Escalating battles to prevent contamination of the self by the other. <br/> <br/>The hybrid is the signature of our age, emblematic of the casualness with which we have established ourselves in real, physical habitats as well as in digital, virtual domains, of the way that dealing with and reconfiguring cultural differences and antipodes has become a matter taken completely for granted, and of the disturbingly routine nature of the way we play with the building blocks of life. <br/> <br/>The cultural history of hybridization, from the husbandry and cross-breeding of plants and animals, the mechanical, electrical and digital simulation and replication of nature, and now to the arrogance of modern genetic engineering, has also always been an expression of humanity’s age-old longings to rise above itself and to modify and correct nature. <br/> <br/>And just as every organism mobilizes the forces of its immune system to fight off intruders and foreign bodies (even in the case of a life-saving organ transplant), every instance of cultural or social hybridization summons forth attitudes of resistance and defensive action: fundamentalist purism, efforts at exclusion resulting from the fear of assimilation, or a sense of skepticism that sees hidden behind these “new” forms of integration nothing but innovative elaborations of the same old divisive forces. <br/> <br/>Hybridization as a cultural process can be calculated and controlled only in the rarest of cases. Its productive powers are mostly the outcome of happenstance or even in some cases the conscious wish to achieve differentiation; they are often byproducts of subversive action. This is especially evident in the successful culture jamming found in youth culture and pop music, but applies equally to numerous applications of digital technology. After all, nobody planned SMS or the dynamic, potent emergence of citizen journalism in the form of blogging, RSS-feeds and podcasting. Their emergence is also a hybrid that was most certainly foretold by visionary artists and cultural theoreticians, though not by the marketing gurus of the New Economy. <br/> <br/>The fact that, ultimately, a way is always found to commercially exploit the derivatives that are engendered in this way does nothing to diminish the inclination, pleasure and energy to go on sampling, remixing, contaminating and abusing; at best, it provokes the redoubling of such efforts. <br/> <br/>"The first hybrid is the human. And living in paradox. A mix of mind and matter, a translating device, a handshake from mind to matter and vice-versa, humankind is in a permanent state of hybridization, consciously and unconsciously. <br/> <br/>Why then focus on such a pervasive condition? Because new drivers of hybridization have emerged that make the hybrid condition always more evident—and more uncomfortable for some. With globalization comes implosion, all cultures and time zones piling up upon each other. When imploding, things either integrate or break. Another driver is digitization, inviting an infinity of recombinations, all hybrids, carefully cultivated with software, like flowers. <br/> <br/>We live in paradox, in a suspension of disbelief that will last until the dust settles and the contradictions between self and other, between nationalisms and globalism, between democracy and state control are resolved. And the contradictions between the power of media and that of the state. And the contradictions between science and the economy generating hybrids for all purposes with a clear bias towards profitability over service to humanity. And the contradictions … <br/> <br/>Art is the food of hybridity. It is translating and transporting the modes of one culture into another, lifting bits of both and mixing. Sampling is not just one of the techniques of the digital, it has become a way of life. And we have DJs of culture, albeit operating at longer-term rhythms. What can people do but sample in an environment where everything is always available?" <br/> <br/>Derrick de Kerckhove</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>Hi friends <br/> <br/>I thought you might like to know that I've started a Tribe for the discussion and organisation of protests in the London area. <br/> <br/>We live in an age of corporate power &amp; dominance, government unaccountability. We need to organise ourselves to let those at the top know we will not stand for the commercialistion of Planet Earth. <br/> <br/>It is predicted that unless we change the way we’re living, we will destroy the Earth and ourselves within the next 1,000 years (Terence McKenna). I don't want to be responsible for the destruction of our planet, and i hope you don't either. <br/> <br/>so join up, lets make a difference. Go to http://protestforchange.tribe.net/ , create a profile, and then join protest for change. Our activities will reflect the views of our members, probably starting with a protest against the commercialisation of Christmas <br/> <br/>Thanks, <br/>Hagop <br/> <br/>http://protestforchange.tribe.net/ <br/> <br/>------------------------------------------------------------------ <br/> <br/>http://www.MASHUPTWINS.com - <br/>http://www.UNDEADARMY.org - 6 of my films online</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>CODE - The Language of Our Time lays out three thematic domains - Code=Law, Code=Art, and Code=Life - in treating the influence and role of digital code in art and society. The Ars Electronica 2003 catalog brings together the theoretical reflections of participating artists and elaborations on projects presented at the festival. The result is a dynamic overview of the entire range of facets and levels of significance of the festival theme. With these texts, artists and scientists make an important contribution to the aesthetics of cyberarts in their link-up with scientific and technological progress. <br/> <br/>Participants of the last festival CODE: <br/> <br/>Peter J.

<div>This year´s Ars Electronica Symposium features four panels around the theme of "TIMESHIFT - The World in 25 Years." <br/>These panels will proceed along a dramatic succession from the enthusiastic to the critical to the personal to the imaginative. <br/>In order to combine seasoned experience and fresh perspective, <br/>each panel will consist of four senior pioneers and one young commentator. The pioneers are prominent experts who have made significant contributions in fields relating to art, technology and society. The commentators are talented young artists and researchers assigned to present a historical overview of the panel´s topic, drawing from the Ars Electronica´s vast 25-year archive of writings, images, and videos. The goal is to use the rich history of Ars Electronica to simulate dialogue abaout the future. <br/> <br/>Symposium I - PROGRESS <br/> <br/>The first panel, PROGRESS, is about the promise of science and technology. It is intended to express the dreams, hopes, and desires made possible by advances in computer and cognitive science, digital media, and bio and nano technologies. <br/> <br/>Symposium II - DISRUPTION <br/> <br/>The second panel, DISRUPTION, is about error, accident, and dissent. It is intended to reveal how the value of intent is relative and how counter-force can dominate in an imperfect world where things don´t always go as planned. <br/> <br/>Symposium III - SPIRIT <br/> <br/>The third panel, SPIRIT, is about beauty, passion, and inner drive. It is intended to refocus our attention from global to self and to explore such issues as wellness, pleasure, family, and mortality. <br/> <br/>Symposium IV - TOPIA <br/> <br/>The final panel, TOPIA, is specifically about the world in 25 years. It will present scenarios around a wide variety of topics relating to art, technology, and society. It is intended to be detailed, inventive, and audacious. <br/></div> <div> posted in <a href="http://arselectronica.tribe.net">[::] Ars Electronica</a> - 0 replies </div>
