RECLAIM the MIND
Friction Research Issue #4, 2011
10 May 2011
The Dutch governemental Art Council (Fonds BKVB) let me down, so there
will be another couple of months finishing this
I will start with sequentially publishing the received submissions in
reversed chronological order, that is the last received will be
published first. That will keep the front page weekly chronological
article going for about one year (49 x 7 - ca. 1/2 x 7 = 50/51 = 1)!
I will continue updating Friction Research issue #4 in it's
prematurely digital disguise.
In the mean time I ask all our submitters to notify me of any
possibility to raise some money for a future printed edition
21 March 2011
In our call for submissions 28 September, 2010, we have invited
artists, writers and academics to contribute to our call for works and
to submit works, which reflects upon 'Reclaiming the Mind', in a
broader sense, ranging from visuals, videos, musics, essays etc ...
Listed individuals and collectives answered our call and will be
published in in the Spring 2011 issue of Nictoglobe Online Magazine as
part of our 'Friction Research Series' [*]
It will take some time to sort out and prepare the final presentation
of these great and divers submissions from a significant number of
individuals and collectives who generously shared their efforts and
thoughts
In preparation are two seperately planned series of public screenings
of the substantial number of time/screen/lens based works received,
due summer and autumn 2011
Scheduled publishing date: April 21, 2011 to be decided
Scheduled screening dates: Late summer & Early autumn 2011
[*] List is not definitive and can be changed in the future

Reclaim the Mind: a transmedial collaborative initiative exploring
empty spots in the human mind
"When the possibility of expressing social reform vanishes, time has
come to change our minds." [A.A. 2010]
Censorship, Territorization, Mapping, Propaganda, Misconduct,
Betrayal, Charlatanism, Mediocrity, Commercialized Education,
Orthodoxy, Cultural Lobotomization, Zombie State Politics
Reclaiming the idiomatic resources, abused by the Creative Industries
™ and jeopardized by a majority of National Governments © and aiming
to protect these souvereign incomprehensible treasures of mankind by
- occupying the area between 'reality' and 'truth',
- re-using forgotten (collective) memory-spaces,
- connecting mental processes with physical spaces,
and intentionally breaking seperations between established cultural
and political domains by
- rewriting, tearing apart, scratching and stretching our lived
environment in an effort to liberate our ursurpated sensibilities.
