Re: [NetBehaviour] An Interview with Alan Sondheim @furtherfield

2017-06-29 Thread Mark Hancock
This is a great interview.

Can I just say: I don't know what's in the cyber-water across Furtherfield
and associated collaborator networks right now, but the past few months
have been totally invigorating and inspiring. Stay strong and keep doing
whatever it is everyone who drinks deep from the well of net art/digital
media art does.

You are all needed today more than ever before.

Re: [NetBehaviour] my thought, index

Hi Alan,

persurge made me think of those photos of Martian Earthrise.

I really liked the ghostliness of the short video as well. The brevity was
enticing, creating a tension as it stopped, and I found I wanted it to last
just a few moments more. I always find it hard to know when to close out a
film, maybe I'm looking for narrative.

One day I'd really like to borrow one of your tracks and sample it in one
of my pieces!

Mark Fisher's passing has been really upsetting, in a way that hasn't
really had an impact on me with other theorists/writers. Maybe it's that we
were similiar ages? I only knew Mark through his writing but it feels like
a rent in the fabric of the model of the world that I've created for myself
over the past ten years.

Thanks for these Rob, there were a few I missed.

I hope there's a plan to collect all of Mark's K-punk blog posts somewhere.

Alan's work is like the finely presented food of a sushi bar, slowly presented 
in quick succession before us. Each small bowl a delight, should we choose to

I'm staying at the restaurant a bit longer if that's alright?

[NetBehaviour] Brief Encounter

2016-08-28 Thread Mark Hancock
Hi,

To avoid doing actual work with looming deadlines, I set myself the
challenge of creating a soundtrack and shooting a video in a single day.
Managed to render this out just before midnight and uploaded it this
morning.

A short story about a hired killer waiting for his target to arrive. It's
about the mundanity of the things we never see in action movies. The
waiting part, without the spectacle which Hollywood-genre movies spend
their time focussing on.

Apologies to those of you who don't know the reference to the long running

Scene: Top of a large hill, below them Europe stretches out. There’s a road
from the hill down, currently being ripped up and carelessly flung to one
side.

Theresa May (pointing at go-cart with NHS pledge painted on side: “Come on,
Boris, climb in, you’ll love it!”

Boris: ” What? No flipping way. You won’t get me in that contraption!”

CUT TO: Boris in that contraption.

May: Righto! Off you go, Boris!

Boris heads down the road, hitting potholes and bumping into people trying
to repair the road. “Look out Frenchies!! Boris express crashing through!”

[NetBehaviour] Kathy and Bill - a love story

2016-05-29 Thread Mark Hancock
Hi Netbehaviourists

A track (can we still say ‘track’ in the digital era? - doesn’t that phrase 
relate to the grooves on vinyl?) I produced using Ableton software and Korg 
gear. The cut-up of the Kathy Acker and William Burroughs interview was 
actually a mistake, because it’s the first time I’ve used the editing software. 
But how could I not leave it in?

[NetBehaviour] Random string

2016-05-06 Thread Mark Hancock
Hi Netbehaviourists,

For once I don’t have to stray further than the Midlands (UK) for some digital 
media goodness. This is taking place at Warwick University. 

M


A one-day event for artists and arts professionals, exploring the use of 
interactive and networked technologies in the creative process.

The Random String Symposium gives space for inspiration, discussion and 
sharing. Hear from cutting-edge artists and technologists from across the UK 
and overseas, have frank conversations with commissioners, producers and 
decision-makers about the practicalities of using technology in your work and 
explore works-in-progress projects from the Random String Fellows and a host of 
other practitioners. There’s also the opportunity to play and tinker yourselves 
in hands-on workshops in creative technology and network with other 
practitioners over free coffee.

Contributors include artist, games designer and activist Phoenix Perry; 
 the RSC’s  Head of Digital 
Development Sarah Ellis; Dan Hett, a BBC  R 
Technologist with a crippling addiction to side projects; and Matt Johnson, CEO 
of Bare Conductive . There’ll also be project 
talks from artists including Nikki Pugh, Antonio Roberts and Juneau Projects.

[NetBehaviour] Resonate festival

2016-04-10 Thread Mark Hancock
Hi Net[mis]behaviourists,

I’m off to Resonate festival this Thursday and I'm filming a series of short 
artist interviews. If any of you are over there and would like to meet and 
spare me a few minutes, it would be great to catch your thoughts and find out 
what you’re working on.

See you there.

Hi Johannes,

>>a kind of romanticism that evokes/links decaying landscapes and empires and 
>>the sublime (aesthetics)

Excellent! You make it sound like a bad thing though?

I like that the work has evoked some discussion, especially as it has moved 
beyond my own thought processes while creating the work. The work was born, 
after all, from an instinctive creative process, rather than one that attempted 
to prove any given ideology or philosophical perspective. But perhaps I’m being 
disingenuous here, maybe I was hoping that it would, while not explicitly 
stating that during the process of creation?

Can the person making the work, be in the best place to analyse the work? I 
know this is a well-worn path, but I’d be interested in what people have to say 
on this. I’ve been looking at subjects for a short documentary I’d like to make 
this year, I wonder if this is it?

Cheers

Mark

Hi,

Yes! It probably is me collapsing, bits falling away and into the ocean (of the 
sublime?).

I’d be interested to find out more of your feelings of insignificance, because 
I imagine that comes from knowing that there is so much more to know in the 
world. Perhaps the decaying landscape is our own uncertainty in the face of so 
much unknowable?

Hi all, thank you for taking the time to view the video!


In a very general, not too researched way, I was reading about Deep Time in (I 
think, I’m still on holiday away from my bookshelves) Collapse journal, Volume 
2. That, coupled with a comic from Image, called Injection, which touches on 
aspects of British folklore and AI, got me thinking last year about the idea of 
cinema as occult exploration; part ritual, part documentation, perhaps? So I 
created these Deep Time Exploration experiment films, which I’ve linked below.

This latest piece is an extension of that exploration, trying to see something 
in the landscape beyond what initially meets the eye.

As for decaying landscapes, I’m extremely risk-averse and nervous whenever I go 
near any cliffs, constantly worrying that they’ll collapse and crush me. 
There’s beauty in there, but also fear. To me, the landscapes are constantly 
collapsing. Maybe I’m being paranoid.

I’ve been using GoPros for a couple of years, because I’ve wanted to take this 
‘extreme sports’ documentation tool and use it in a different, creative/playful 
way. As I’ve been thinking about this all now, I realised that one root was 
probably the work of Mark Amerika. In fact, an interview for DigiCult* I did 
with Mark a few years ago, probably lodged itself in my neural pathways.

It’s rare that I get to think and write about my own work, so thank you and 
your references and thoughts have really got me thinking and making some 
connections.

Regards

Mark

2016-03-09 Thread Mark Hancock
Hi, I’m also finding this really interesting right now.

I guess what stands out for me is the line, "– We are not developing a 
performance – our performances are part of a research process.”

I really like this idea that, as performers, you’re exploring what the text is 
and means. If this is the case? But, instead of working through towards a 
moment when the text is fully understood and can be presented, there is always 
a becoming?

All the best,

Alan,

Thank you so much for all this information. Just in these two paragraphs, 
there’s enough to keep me thinking for several lifetimes. We should all go more 
obscure!

Your research shamed me into returning to my copy and on opening it, found the 
definition on the first page I came to. I know how these things can happen 
through statistical chance and mechanical structure of book binding etcetera, 
but I also like the idea of being guided to it by… whatever. Anyway, here’s my 
hastily copied over (with one hand holding the book open while I type).

Thank you for sending me back!

Page 91, footnote 3:  'dhutih, meaning “median-nerve”, but lit. “tri-junction”. 
VS. Apte’s Sanscrit-English dictionary (Poona 1890) gives dhuti as the only 
similar word, defined as “shaking” or “moving”, which applied to our text may 
refer to the vibratory motion of the psychic force traversing the median nerve 
as its channel.’ - Lama Kazi Dawa-Samdup

Hi all,

I’ve just returned from a week break in Wales (UK), where I went exploring with 
a couple of GoPros*. I’ve been reading a comic called Injection (published by 
Image Comics) that is partly about deep-time and British folk lore. These three 
videos are the result of the clash of all these things in my consciousness once 
I’d unhooked from the constant hum of work life.

If nothing else, take a look at number two. I found these stones sculptures on 
the coastline, obviously made by an artist, judging by the attention and 
patience required. I like to think they were conjured into place by the spirit 
of Derek Jarman.

*The reason I mention the make of camera is because I think these are 
excellent, hi quality cameras with great potential beyond just extreme sports 
use.

Hi all,

Call it displacement activity for all the work I’ve promised other people: 
Here’s my review of the current Vanley Burke exhibition at Ikon gallery in 
Birmingham (UK).

... radicalism lends itself so well [...], as it stands outside of nearly all 
of our social constructs: we can all find something worth despising to justify 
this new, background hum of racism.

 Here’s a video/piece of music I’ve put together following my trip to Resonate

 there, but I’ve layered it with Tibetan singing bowl and guitar samples, all 
 then worked on in post-production.
 
 Why vipassanūpakkilesa you ask? It means corruption of insight. When you 
 think you’ve made a major breakthrough on the path to enlightenment and 
 instead you’ve been misled by the false promises of earth-bound trappings. 
 Art making can be like that, don’t you think? And also, just life in general,

[NetBehaviour] vipassanūpakkilesa

2015-04-25 Thread Mark Hancock
Hi folks,

Here’s a video/piece of music I’ve put together following my trip to Resonate 
in Serbia. Originally it was going to be just the sounds I’d recorded over 
there, but I’ve layered it with Tibetan singing bowl and guitar samples, all 
then worked on in post-production.

Why vipassanūpakkilesa you ask? It means corruption of insight. When you think 
you’ve made a major breakthrough on the path to enlightenment and instead 
you’ve been misled by the false promises of earth-bound trappings. Art making 
can be like that, don’t you think? And also, just life in general, a lot of the 
time. But that’s a good thing, because realisation of vipassanūpakkilesa means 
you’re still on the path.

Enjoy (or don’t, we all have to find our own path).

[NetBehaviour] Katharine Morling at Llantarnam Grange Arts Centre

Hi all,

There's a smallish gallery in Cymbran, Wales (UK) that I get to go to every now 
and then through various circumstances: Llantarnam Grange Arts Centre. They 
showcase mostly craft. It's always well curated and certainly for me, work that 
I might not necessarily go out of my way to see.

Anyway, there's currently an exhibition of Katharine Morling's work. Here's a

Re: [NetBehaviour] bridge to elsewhere

Nice, thank you Alan. I like the inclusion of the screengrab as well.

Obviously I don't know why you included it, but for me it felt like a reminder 
that we have to be open and honest that technology has played a part in the 
creative process. We are working in unison with the tools and often at odds 
with them to create something that says something about being human beings 
living at this moment in time.

The repetition in the video felt very ritualistic, with the grey background and 
the almost cell-like sparseness of the set.

A good way to start a Tuesday morning.

[NetBehaviour] Snogging at the BFI – Matisse and the digital revolution

2014-08-31 Thread Mark Hancock
Hi all,

My hastily cobbled-together-at-two-in-the-morning review of two exhibitions 
currently in London:

In the BFI lounge, you can get a cocktail for just over £8. For an extra £1.10 
you can get someone to bring it over to you while you lounge around in the 
overly comfortable settees. If you’re stuck opposite a couple who are tongue 
deep inside each other, then you only have two possible options: order more 
cocktails. Or join in.

Hi Edward,

Thank you, that's really nice of you to say. I guess that's what I'm trying to 
explore with the writing: subjective criticism and a more creative writing 
approach to exploring what I, as a person, rather than academic/art historian, 
am feeling when I'm confronted with an exhibition and trying to understand it. 

You're right, I've updated the review with dates for both and even added a link 
to buy tickets at the end.

 This is a very lively and engaging read! I quite like the highly-personal

 knowledgeable about art and therefore you've got to respect my opinions 
 stance, which is exactly what you're calling into question with regard to the 
 galleries - This art must be important and canonical, because we've put it 
 in our gallery. 
 
 Interesting point, too, about Matisse's The Cowboy being almost contemporary 
 with Francis Bacon's Three Studies for Figures at the Base of a Crucifixion - 
 you're right, it's quite difficult to think of them as belonging to the same 
 era. 
 
 Just one point, however - you give the dates of the Matisse exhibition, but 
 not the Digital Revolutions exhibition.

[NetBehaviour] Ironic appropriation is dead (or is it?) Barbara Kruger knows.

2014-08-24 Thread Mark Hancock
Hi all,

I've re-ignited my art blog, which no doubt will rise in flames and die slowly 
in agony over the coming weeks as I abandon it. In the meantime, here's a 
review of Barbara Kruger at Modern Art Oxford:

In Modern Art Oxford‘s unisex toilet, the little box for collecting sanitary 
waste is overflowing. Sanitary waste just sits there, at the top of the box, 
staring at you. It seems slightly vulgur and, inevitably, you have to wonder 
when the toilets were last checked. But is it disgusting? Why should 
confronting the detritus of ‘the other’ (a male perspective) and the healthy 
signs of female bodies, feel wrong? We’re in a gallery for Lork’s sake.

  Hi Mark,

 Yes, I like this...

 I think this piece should last for months, a year, forever even!

 As one continuous radio broadcast - on the net  on FM radio.

 Of course your reasons for making this particular work is contextually
 different to my own interpretations. But, from where I am sitting it
 feels post-apocalyptic.

 Listening to it I hear pain, not from one voice - but of a multitude.

 Wishing you well.

  A reworking of my previous piece (Element #52) slightly longer and with
 a couple of more layers to the mix. I've also removed the video as I felt

[NetBehaviour] The value of working differently: The Theatre Absolute story by Chris O’Connell

2014-02-24 Thread Mark Hancock
Hi all,

I thought this article by a friend of mine working in theatre might be of 
interest to those of us interested in performance (everyone?/Define 
performance/ etcetera)

Presenting art or making theatre in shops is not new, although theatre in 
shops can often be pop up and gone within the duration of a project. But this 
idea of us having our own space in a shop felt like a unique way forward for 
the company: affordable, flexible, light touch, long term – we could make work 
when we wanted, about what we wanted. It was a cultural provocation.

Re: [NetBehaviour] The New Who vs Oldskool Timey-Wimey Whovians

2014-01-03 Thread Mark Hancock
I'm yet to watch the new Sherlock. I've been 'kind of' off-grid(ish) for a few 
days. I'm not sure that I'm going to be as enamoured of the new one as I was 
the previous episodes. But we'll see. Sometimes I'm just happy there's an 
alternative to X Factor and the like (more of which below).

One thing I'm trying to explore more in my own [creative/fiction] writing this 
year is the idea of jeopardy for characters. What are they risking, what is at 
stake for them within the given options. And more importantly how do those 
decisions drive them on to either succeed or fail (with elegance). I think that 
Breaking Bad did this very well, for those that watched it. Jeopardy has to 
mount and be layered, if you're going to create a narrative arc across a whole 
series or two. Jeopardy can be anything from falling in love to... deciding to 
fight the Daleks (Oh to fall in love with a Dalek!)

I recall an interview with Russell T Davies where he said that even X Factor 
and the like, had great narrative arcs and the directors/producers fully 
understood how to create that gripping drama in each fractal of each episode. 
This started with each performance, covered the whole episode and then of 
course built across the whole series. There are good guys and bad guys. Heroes 
we love and heroes we hate. I always regard these shows with respect since 
seeing that interview. There's a lot to be learnt from them (I hope this 
doesn't come across as ironic, I really mean it).

To me, this is one of the things that differentiates the two showrunners from 
each other. I'm not sure Moffat really believes that bad guys are all that bad 
(I bet he's mates with Simon Cowell (I knew i'd get ironic eventually)). And he 
probably believes that everyone should be a winner in the end.

Not that I've been thinking about all this or anything

 Too busy with the launch of wishforyouand.me [begins today] to watch the new 
 Sherlock...;) Mark, have you watched it?
  
 Mez you're much more generous to Moffat than I would be. He's
 misunderstood the very basis of the show (to the extent that fairytales
 and SF both take place in a strange and distant land yes they share some
 aesthetics and affordances, but he's thrown out Who's techno/social
 ethic in favour of an aesthetic of robes and staffs) and is worshiping
 at the altar of the story arc without being willing or able to do any
 of the planning or resolution that involves.
 
 I'm still [constantly] oscillating as to Moffat's overall take: it could be 
 unintentional part-wonder-crafting, part-new-Whovian-pandering, but it also 
 could just be slopping work overall. 
 
 I prefer the old American commentator's description of that crazy space
 bum to the aging British fanboy's that wonderful man[...]who is
 watching over us.
 
 I think I like both?
  
 
 I'm not the only one. This article describes the schmaltz, cowardice and
 nastiness of Moffat's storytelling well:
 
 http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2013/12/the-captain-kirk-problem-how-em-doctor-who-em-betrayed-matt-smith/282690/
 
 [Don't forget potential/possible misogyny:)] And thanks for the article 
 link: will read when less Wish4[0]-ing.
  
 
 Smith’s approach to the character, and the obvious on-screen chemistry
 he had with co-stars Karen Gillan as Amy Pond, Arthur Darvill as Rory
 Williams, and Alex Kingston as River Song helped the whole ensemble sell
 the entire ridiculous package that is Doctor Who. His first season had
 its problems, but the individual episodes and the season-long arc had
 enough momentum that—along with the slicker direction and more polished
 production values compared to the previous rebooted Who—the whole thing
 hung together well.
 
 I was absolutely gobsmacked by the lack of finesse of the Ep involving the 
 exit of the Darvills. 
 
 
 The problem was never with Smith’s performance. It was with Steven
 Moffat’s conception of the character.
 
 
 Nice point: looking forward to reading the article.
 
 Chunks,
 Mez

Here's an interview I recorded with Sian Tompkin of Companis at their Down the

This is the latest in a loose ongoing experiment of seeing what can be done

Inter-coital tensions?

There can be no more sublime a moment than the after and the before of a long 
evening of passion. This project celebrates those moments on the internets.

I've just finished reading the autobiography of Sebastien Horsley, the British 
dandy and artist. He would have loved this project, as it celebrates everything 
that is sordid and yet frustrating about the sex industry.

It would be interesting to read a critique of the work in relation to the 
effects (affects) of objectification of women in the workplace. Any takers?

 ImageMagick says hi. ;-)
 
 The colour, geometry and *spatiality* of these are something special.
 
 Do keep developing and reworking this, it's glitchtastic!

Hi, thanks Kath, really appreciate your feedback. I'm seeing where these go 
next. Untitled #209 has some potential to go in a number of directions (quite 
literally, possibly).

Hopefully looking at paintings isn't an
indicator of terrorist intent.

Only in Russia under Putin maybe? We should flood his office with Mapplethorpe 
photocopies!

[NetBehaviour] Zone Terrain

2013-05-30 Thread Mark Hancock
Hi all,

Zone Terrain. The static made mobile and reversed. An anti-movement-image 
against/for Deleuze? This piece feels like a static painting made active across 
the frames.

Re: [NetBehaviour] o loop

2013-05-11 Thread Mark Hancock
Hi Michael,

I really like the colouring on this. Made me think of a slightly glitchy side 
effect of colouring it. Also  i kept watching the the blocking of the sections 
of the image. That mathematical, imposed sectioning of the image feels like 
it's a juxtaposition against the nature represented in the scene.

Calming. Thank you.
