[NetBehaviour] Fwd: New Chapbook / eChapbook from limit cycle press
Catherine Daly has published a new chapbook, available (online, http://limitcyclepress.blogspot.fi/) and in print from limit cycle press. This was written using the different ways a nintendo controller functions in different games -- the games were actually the free previews of games in a hotel room where I was very ill, about ten years ago. My original intent was then to take these behaviours, and use them to play various books and paintings. It could still happen... http://www.amazon.com/Controller-Seedbed-Catherine-Daly/dp/1500209821/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8qid=1403731373sr=8-5 ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

Hence, let me just be naïve for a second, and think aloud a couple of questions: - I wonder if there is a problem with the notion of object in the sense that it still implies paradoxically quite a correlationist, or lets say, human-centred view to the world; is not the talk of “object” something that summons an image of perceptible, clearly lined, even stable entity – something that to human eyes could be thought of as the normal mode of perception.

Oblique Strategies is a deck of creative strategy cards created by Peter Schmidt and Brian Eno; Peter Schmidt would have been 80 this year. This event is free and open to the public. Oh, Bleek Strategies is part of the Sixth Annual Chicago Calling Arts Festival and Chicago Artists Month. Oh, Bleek Strategies includes— • “The Red Thread Project: Oh, Bleek Strategies Knitting Circle,” with Lindsay Obermeyer (Chicago), Corinne D. Peterson (Chicago), and other participants. • H. V.

Performers at the Newberry Library will be using Oblique Strategies cards to help direct a surrealist taxi in London. 2011 CHICAGO CALLING ARTS FESTIVAL The Borderbend Arts Collective presents the Sixth Annual Chicago Calling Arts Festival, a multi-disciplinary collaboration festival that happens during Chicago Artists Month. During Chicago Calling, people in the Chicago area work with people outside of Chicago -- both here in the U.S. and abroad. These collaborations include a range of art forms, such as music, dance, film, literature, and intermedia -- and they are prepared or improvised. Some Chicago Calling events involve live feeds between Chicago and other locations. Many Chicago Calling events also include partnerships with local arts organizations and other institutions. CHICAGO ARTISTS MONTH Chicago Artists Month is a citywide, collaborative effort showcasing Chicago visual artists and their work throughout the month of October. Coordinated by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events in partnership with the Chicago Office of Tourism and Culture, Chicago Artists Month showcases over 200 events, ranging from exhibitions to open studio tours and neighborhood art walks presented by museums, galleries, cultural centers, artist collaboratives, and other organizations throughout the city. The primary goal of Chicago Artists Month is to raise awareness of the extraordinary quality and depth of our visual arts community. Explore this site to see what happened during Chicago Artists Month 2010! This year's theme, Artful Networks,” explores the communities that nurture and inspire Chicago artists and their work. The people with whom artists choose to work can be supportive in encouraging creative growth, experimentation, dialogue among peers, and community building. Ranging from traditional residency programs to collaboratives to informal relationships, our communities impact the way we create, support and appreciate art. In celebration of the Alliance of Artists Communities' 20th Anniversary Conference, which takes place in Chicago from October 19 to 22, Chicago Artists Month 2011 looks at the various ways artists in Chicago are influenced by their social environments. www.borderbend.org == The Poetics List is moderated does not accept all posts.

Oh wait, there is not a gallery big enough for this exhibit That got a lot of us talking, and got me thinking... I ran my idea past Mat, broadened the scope; this project is the result. 1) Make a postcard ... The aim is to make a powerful, unified, statement; to that end: • Don't deviate from any of the guidelines please, consistency is key. • Use a standard postcard size: 4x6 or 5x7. • Keep it flat, it's a postcard. • Don't be hostile, we want them to listen. • Make it good, we're saying art is worth supporting, show it. 2) Write: * • Artists and the Economy • A statement or two related to your finances (suggestions below) • Please donate to the Smithsonian American Art Museum. * A lot of people have asked to broaden this even further, comprehensively in fact. Support is lovely, so, yes, absolutely - BUT - in order to keep the message clear, please write: • Support Artists and the Economy • A statement clearly defining your relation to struggling artists: - what art means to you as a viewer - the fact that you are another (non-visual) type of artist, etc... - the fact that you are a RARE example of a thriving artist • Use your judgment- does your work belong in the Smithsonian? 3) Address it to: President Obama The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500 4) Take a photo of the front and post it to this page. 5) Drop it in a mailbox for POSTMARK: Friday, 2 SEPTEMBER 2011.

Re: [NetBehaviour] Cariou vs. Prince: THE COPYRIGHT BUNGLE
It is actually pretty consistent with recent decisions in music and literature re: copyright. Plus, he's appropriated 40 entire images and superimposed on them. He hasn't altered the base image of the one picture I saw. Here's something from a lawyer blog: To evaluate fair use of copyrighted material, the courts consider four factors set out in 17 U.S.C. 107http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/17/107.html : 1. the purpose and character of the use 2. the nature of the copyrighted work 3. the amount and substantiality of copying, and 4. the market effect. For most courts, the most significant factor in this analysis is the fourth factor–effect on the market. It seems part of his intent was to reduce the marketability of the original images (not of the small pieces of other images). But his greater profit than the maker of the base images is very much on point. But, is this fair use because it is parody?

Re: [NetBehaviour] My Youtube account disabled and censored
Sorry I didn't follow this thread sooner. Am applying for jobs. In any case, from what I remember, Viacom is a french parent company, and they purchased (whether or not still run --??) Paramount and Simon and Schuster in the 90s. So you can see that, as a company heavily involved in early telecoms/inet AND owning a movie studio AND a major publishing house, they may be seeking to act against certain sorts of video streaming, especially that on You Tube (which is owned by Google now) and Vimeo, etc. And apparently they are doing it differently from Disney. I would press Viacom for detailed written comment on your particular case, and then consider a formal response to circulate (if it is, as I suspect, an exercise of a new policy). For example, I'm sure the You Tube policy includes right to terminate at any time, but you are saying Viacom claim a copyright issue.

[NetBehaviour] Oprah Magazine Scandal Rip-Off
while not completely on point, is convergence in obvious areas an accident? Forwarded from Kate Durbin As some of you may know, Oprah Magazine recently did a feature on poets and fashion. Unfortunately, there is a strong chance that the magazine ripped off my work with felt letters, as the editor and I had been in correspondence prior to the execution of the feature in the magazine. I'd appreciate if you would pass along the following blog post (feel free to post it in the body of an email or to forward as a link or both). I am also more than happy to stand up for any of you if similar circumstances befall you--I know how yucky it feels to be robbed and erased.

Re: [NetBehaviour] Submissions Now Open for Irrational Exuberance: A Recession Art Show.
I'm glad people are mentioning it, because there seems to be a very large group of even otherwise economically and politically aware artists who have no problem with submission fees. While I understand the ideal that even guerilla administrators (curators, fundraisers, pr people, and the like) ought to be respected for their work, perhaps by payments of money or reimbursement for expenses... at the lowest level, one is paying a fee for a service or product that one can execute alone. And why? But when did it become ok to charge fees, in time?

[NetBehaviour] Capt. Beefheart's 10 Commandments of Guitar Playing
Captain Beefheart's 10 Commandments of Guitar Playing [image: Beefheart]http://blog.wfmu.org/.a/6a00d83451c29169e201156e9691d1970c-popup1. * Listen to the birds*. That's where all the music comes from. Birds know everything about how it should sound and where that sound should come from. And watch hummingbirds. They fly really fast, but a lot of times they aren't going anywhere. 2. *Your guitar is not really a guitar Your guitar is a divining rod*. Use it to find spirits in the other world and bring them over. A guitar is also a fishing rod. If you're good, you'll land a big one. 3. *Practice in front of a bush* Wait until the moon is out, then go outside, eat a multi-grained bread and play your guitar to a bush. If the bush dosen't shake, eat another piece of bread. 4. *Walk with the devil * Old Delta blues players referred to guitar amplifiers as the devil box. And they were right. You have to be an equal opportunity employer in terms of who you're bringing over from the other side. Electricity attracts devils and demons. Other instruments attract other spirits. An acoustic guitar attracts Casper. A mandolin attracts Wendy. But an electric guitar attracts Beelzebub. 5. *If you're guilty of thinking, you're out* If your brain is part of the process, you're missing it. You should play like a drowning man, struggling to reach shore. If you can trap that feeling, then you have something that is fur bearing. 6. *Never point your guitar at anyone* Your instrument has more clout than lightning. Just hit a big chord then run outside to hear it. But make sure you are not standing in an open field. 7. *Always carry a church key* That's your key-man clause. Like One String Sam. He's one. He was a Detroit street musician who played in the fifties on a homemade instrument. His song I Need a Hundred Dollars is warm pie. Another key to the church is Hubert Sumlin, Howlin' Wolf's guitar player. He just stands there like the Statue of Liberty-making you want to look up her dress the whole time to see how he's doing it. 8. *Don't wipe the sweat off your instrument* You need that stink on there. Then you have to get that stink onto your music. 9. *Keep your guitar in a dark place *When you're not playing your guitar, cover it and keep it in a dark place. If you don't play your guitar for more than a day, be sure you put a saucer of water in with it. 10. *You gotta have a hood for your engine* Keep that hat on. A hat is a pressure cooker. If you have a roof on your house, the hot air can't escape. Even a lima bean has to have a piece of wet paper around it to make it grow. -- ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

[NetBehaviour] UCSD CFP
*2010 CALL FOR PROPOSALS* The 4th annual UCIRA State of the Arts Conference Future Tense: Alternative Arts and Economies in the University November 18-21, 2010 University of California, San Diego *2010 CALL FOR PROPOSALS* *Deadline: May 28, 2010* The University of California Institute for Research in the Arts (UCIRA) and the University of California, San Diego are pleased to announce the 4th annual UCIRA State of the Arts conference, to take place at UCSD November 18-21, 2010. Proposals are currently being accepted which address the theme Future Tense: Alternative Arts and Economies in the University. *The Conference Theme* The last two years have witnessed an unprecedented crisis on college campuses around the world, as the social compact that governed higher education in the United States and Europe for the past half century has begun to collapse. Universities from London to Sussex, from Athens to Vienna, and from Berkeley to Santa Cruz, have experienced protests, occupations, walkouts and other actions directed against the encroaching privatization of public education. This crisis has been particularly acute at the University of California, the flagship public university system in the United States. Dramatic funding cutbacks, layoffs, furloughs, and fee hikes have been combined with an upsurge in the sort of racist and sexist attacks that often accompany periods of economic turmoil, as the perception of dwindling resources leads to the predictable search for scapegoats. This complex mix of economic, cultural and social forces places particular pressure on the status of the arts within research universities, and the very notion of the university itself as a haven for liberal arts education. New tensions have opened up, between the arts and humanities and engineering and science, and between public and private funding sources and priorities, even as new solidarities have emerged, among and between staff and faculty, graduates and undergraduates, disciplines and departments. This conference seeks to address the following questions: · How can the arts respond to this crisis? · What new alliances can we form both within the university campus and the communities beyond its walls? · What alternative economies exist for the support of artistic research? · What new pedagogical models and new forms of knowledge production can the arts offer as our educational mission is both threatened and, potentially, transformed? · And what forms of creative practice have been mobilized by the protests, walkouts and occupations? · As the campus itself becomes a field of symbolic resistance and contestation, from swastikas at UC Davis to Klan hoods at UC San Diego, what are the limits and the political implications of freedom of expression? We seek proposals for presentations, performances, projects, workshops, conversations or panels that address the past history, present moment and future possibilities of the arts in a university setting. *Application:* All applications must be submitted in pdf form to ZouZou Chapman ( zchap...@ucira.ucsb.edu) by 5pm on Friday, May 28th, and should include: (1) a fully completed cover sheet (download HEREhttp://www.ucira.ucsb.edu/2010Conference%20Application.doc ) (2) a c.v. for each of the lead applicant(s) (3) A detailed description of proposed activities (1-2 pages single-spaced) (4) [optional] work samples (3 @ 250k or smaller, jpeg format) or links within your application to external image/video hosting services (i.e. Vimeo,YouTube, etc.) and/or personal or departmental webpages as appropriate. Participants may choose to submit written papers before or after the conference for possible inclusion in the UCIRA project publication series. -- All best, Catherine Daly c.a.b.d...@gmail.com ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

Re: [NetBehaviour] [stuff-it] FW: Only 33 per cent of Americans believe in evolution (fwd)
belief is not a requirement for science or art, and artists and scientists share the problem that new things, paradigms, whatnot are unbelievable there are a few unchurched loons who are unconvinced evolutionary biology has a basis in fact despite abundant evidence or how about, although organized religion and faith play a small role in the lives and thought of the majority, the history of human thought is continually erased in favor of abject misreadings of three texts most of my work is sited such that rather than a poem containing history, it contains heresy heresy is often literary criticism (critical thinking applied to texts), and this is what it was in my first book; also, Inquisition heresy, which was basically in the divorce between logic (computer...) and love in my new book, I am trying to extend that (in the first section) to the ways in which the ideas of modern algebra (chip design), most famously by Galois the revolutionary but unfortunately also by Lagrange, Laplace, et.al., the defense contractors of their time, were also ideas of cosmology, i.e. ideas of creation / origin the protestant female heretics are a bit different; the concern was what would happen if just anybody tried to read sacred texts -- it seems clear that while the notion is elitist and sexist, history has taught us what happens when people who don't know how to read or what text is for read or claim they are reading I've gone on long enough, but I also want to add that here in the US as well in many theocracies -- and this was what was striking about the original survey (although far too few people were surveyed to really indicate anything) -- cries of censorship and free speech very effectively have been used to silence thoughtful people and confuse the majority All best, Catherine Daly c.a.b.d...@gmail.com ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

Re: [NetBehaviour] We won't fly for art : Take the Pledge
Hi, I don't have a high-flying art career. I have a pretty big carbon footprint, though. But it seems as though this project is negatively motivated, minimalist through purification, not simplicity: stop, avoid, less,careering. I feel that we've just gotten to the point where outside the major cities more than one sort of lettuce is available and more than one ethnicity is represented, where, rather than short wave radio and inter-library loan and mail and phone, we can actually see and communicate more, with more people. Which is why, now, counter-cultural types are turning back toward the local. relate differently to their own local cultures and to connect more imaginatively to other cultures not everyone is suited to fighting the good fight against fundamentalism and anti-intellectualism in small towns by day and making wild and free art alone in a barn / basement server room of one's own by night; not everyone wants to join an art colony or commune or live on a college campus; not every practice thrives on solitude; not every practice thrives on jetting around networking with important people -- All best, Catherine Daly c.a.b.d...@gmail.com ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
