[spectre] december at 700MBG - SAVED IMAGES - Svetlana Mircheva
everybody welcome to the opening: SAVED IMAGES / SVETLANA MIRCHEVA / DECEMBER 2011 starting december 1st at the 700 megabyte gallery / www.700mbg.com - Finding something that has not been lost is probably one of the most interesting things about working on a computer and with digital space in general. The artist presents one piece of her discovery that turned up while testing a variety of recovery tools after she had lost her data from her harddrive. Besides the question on how recovery can actually be understood as a process of creation or remix there is an appealing statement about an unintentional and experimental way of working: the artist as a gold-digger; rambling around his/her microspace and every now and then being astonished about what he/she finds in his/her familiar spheres. Everybody welcome to get a first impression of the piece on our website. - best wishes, – stefan riebel pf 440413, 12004 berlin, germany m: +49 176 630 515 85 www.stefanriebel.de 700 megabyte gallery www.700mbg.com __ SPECTRE list for media culture in Deep Europe Info, archive and help: http://post.in-mind.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/spectre

[spectre] Networked Disruption: Rethinking Oppositions in Art, Hacktivism and the Business of Social Networking
Ph.d-Defence Tatiana Bazzichelli: Networked Disruption. Rethinking Oppositions in Art, Hacktivism and the Business of Social Networking 5. December 2011, 14:00 to 17:00 Det lille Auditorium, Incuba Science Park, Åbogade 15, Aarhus University, Denmark Networked Disruption Rethinking Oppositions in Art, Hacktivism and the Business of Social Networking In connection with the submission of her PhD dissertation Networked Disruption. Rethinking oppositions in art, hacktivism and the business of social networking to the Faculty of Arts at Aarhus University for the award of a PhD degree in Information and Media Studies, Tatiana Bazzichelli will publicly defend her research in an open forum, 14-17 on Monday December 5, 2011, in Det lille Auditorium, Incuba Science Park, Åbogade 15, Aarhus University, Denmark. The objective of this research is to rethink the meaning of oppositional practices in art, hacktivism and the business of social networking. By identifying the emerging contradictions within the current economical and political framework of Web 2.0, hacker and artistic practices are analysed through business instead of in opposition to it. Shedding light on the mutual interferences between networking participation and disruptive business innovation, this research explores the current transformation in political and technological criticism. After the emergence of Web 2.0, the critical framework of art and hacktivism has shifted from developing strategies of opposition to embarking on the art of disruption. Disruption becomes a two-way strategy in networking contexts, a practice to generate criticism, and a methodology to create business innovation. Connecting together disruptive practices of networked art and hacking in California and in Europe, the author proposes a constellation of social networking projects that challenge the notion of power and hegemony, such as mail art, Neoism, The Church of the SubGenius, Luther Blissett, Anonymous, Anna Adamolo, Les Liens Invisibles, the Telekommunisten collective, The San Francisco Suicide Club, The Cacophony Society, the early Burning Man Festival, the NoiseBridge hackerspace, and many others. Examining committee: Senior Lecturer Olga Goriunova, Dept. of Applied Social Sciences, London Metropolitan University, United Kingdom; Professor Franco Berardi, Accademia di Belle Arti, Carrara, Italy; Associate Professor Geoff Cox, Dept. of Information and Media Studies, Aarhus University (chairman). After the PhD degree there will be a reception in room 229, Nygaard Building, Finlandsgade 21, 8200 Aarhus N. Related programme: Tuesday December 6: Sensibility and Semiocapital Lecture by Franco Berardi Bifo (Respondent: Olga Goriunova).

[spectre] Remediating the Social: 3rd and FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS
Remediating the Social 3rd and FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS The Electronic Literature as a Model of Creativity and Innovation in Practice (ELMCIP) research project invites paper and presentation proposals for its conference, Remediating the Social. Selected papers will be presented at the conference in Edinburgh, November 1-3, 2012. ELMCIP welcomes abstracts of up to 500 words for papers, presentations and group panel sessions that address network and digitally mediated creative practices that effect and reflect upon the role of creativity in social and community formation. Remediating the Social apprehends people and media as interacting generative agents, remediating one another as a vital part of contemporary social space. Papers that reflect upon born digital literary and artistic practice within the context of cultural formation are especially welcome. Papers might present theoretical positions, case studies or artist's presentations, as well as other forms. We welcome proposals for panel discussions on specific topics that engage the conference theme. Remediating the Social will be hosted at Edinburgh College of Art (eca) of the University of Edinburgh, in collaboration with New Media Scotland and University College Falmouth. The conference will be held at eca. An associated exhibition will be held at Inspace, a purpose-built research and exhibition facility in the University of Edinburgh's School of Informatics, fully instrumented to facilitate engagement with developments in new technologies, scientific research and creative practice. The exhibition will continue after the conference for three weeks. The conference programme will consist of paper presentations, across a range of disciplines and modes of inquiry, addressing examples of creative communities that have formed around various practices, media and discourses. Case studies, papers and panels, including examples arising from the ELMCIP project and other contexts, will be presented. The conference will be web-cast, allowing for remote attendees to monitor events and put questions to conference via a live public feed, employing mediating technologies within the event. Conference proceedings will be peer reviewed and published, with ISBN.
