[NetBehaviour] DELUXE dLUX Edition 1

[Neil Jenkins]

Dear Friends,

As you may know, dLux Mediarts has recently experienced significant funding 
cuts. In response, we are embarking on various fundraising initiatives 
including the launch of DELUXE dLUX Edition 1, an exciting anthology of videos 
donated for this venture by Australian artists including Dani Marti, Angelica 
Mesiti, Soda_Jerk, Kate Murphy, John Tonkin, Hayden Fowler, Denis Beaubois, 
Julie Rrap, Elvis Richardson, John A Douglas, Sue Healey, and Daniel Mudie 
Cunningham.

Strictly limited and handsomely packaged to an Edition of 100 at $295, this set 
of highly collectable videos are a MUST - and perfectly timed for a Christmas 
stocking stuffer!

It would be great if you could support this by acquiring it for yourself and 
coming to the launch.

dLux Edition 1 is being launched next Tuesday 15 November at Artereal Gallery 
in Rozelle, where a select number of editions will be printed in advance for 
anyone who pre–orders now. I hope you can support this important initiative by 
attending and ordering dLUX Edition 1 for your private collection. 

Please see the link below for more information.

For over 30 years dLux has made a significant contribution to the vibrant 
development of experimental new media arts in Australia. Let's keep dLux 
MediaArts alive.

Orders through Cash Brown, Program Manager, dLux MediaArts: c...@dlux.org.au

Re: [NetBehaviour] furthernoise problems

[Neil Jenkins]

Hi James,

It all seems to be working okay here, (mac+firefox) .. I've noticed this 
happens occasionally but usually a page refresh sorts it. I've always thought 
it's something to do with the way the audioplayer appears and isn't refreshed 
with the rest of the page content when a link is clicked. Let me know if you 
experience further (!) issues.

If you can tell me where you got the other links from would be useful and I'll 
see if i can spot what's going on in the back end

cheers

Neil

Artworks Feature: Art Doesn't Make Us Better People

Today, from Sydney's Festival of Dangerous Ideas, David Marr argues that art 
doesn't make you a better person. This is a proposition that the 18th century 
philosopher Jean Jacques Rousseau put his mind to. In fact, his 'Discourse on 
the moral effects of the arts and sciences' is the thing that made his name -- 
that took him from mediocre playwright and composer to renowned philosopher.

Re: [NetBehaviour] seeking reviewers for the 101010 UpStage Festival

[Neil Jenkins]

Hi Folks,
Please find a rough translation by my friend Femke [ 
http://www.femillustration.com/ ]
:) Neil


Cyberformances get Benefit of  doubt.

Experiencing art from home? 
Mostly I'd rather get out than to stay sitting behind the computer. Although, I 
remember the lively night when I participated a whole night with a shared 
experiment about ten years ago ( German. Swiss and Austrian art academies with 
hundreds of students) It was quite complicated: you had to open up several 
different chatrooms, webpages and channels at the same time to be able to 
listen to music, watch video's and live chat. At some academies there were live 
studio's which were appropriated to receive sketches and interviews per webcam. 
Every hour a group in a different city took turn, but nobody really followed 
these rules. the public could chat about the happening with other online 
contestants and even upload their own images and music. Maybe it was because of 
the nighly hour that so many people in different locations overwelmed each 
other with vision and sound, and because I was too clumsy to understand who did 
what where - but whatever it was, something inside me excited me : what an 
amazing online out splash of a party, with hundreds of people !

Since 2007, the yearly cyberperfomance fesival  takes place, without the need 
of al sorts of complicated software. The 101010 Upstage Festival this year 
offers 19 online performances. Artists from 11 countries, 9 time zones, show 
what they call 'cyberformances' - at Oct. 10th, to be seen from the 
Upstage-website. From the end of Sept. there is a schedule published, with the 
different time zones, this will be available on the website. Some of the 
performances will be live at location, others combine on and off-line content. 
And other performances link different locations with each other. In New York, 
Vietnam, New Zealand, Slovenia, Canada and also in Eindhoven there are 'Real 
Life Access Nodes' - places for the public who doesn't want to experience the 
event at home.  Curators of the festival have selected different performances 
incl. dance-based performances, comedies, theoretical handelings and 
experiments around sexuality. 
The only limit: a performance can be max. 20 mins. A couple of examples: 
'Murder 2.0', a virtual theatre from Canada, in which a young private detective 
called Halle researches a dirty business deal, it ends up that she gets accused 
of murder herself. Halle needs to find the murderer to clear her name. If she 
succeeds depends on you, the contestant.
When you first read the descriptions, this can come across slightly 
experimental, which can be either a plus or a minus.
The films in the festival archive are reminiscent of primitive computer games, 
and the design of 'Second Life' in it's early days; simple moving collages with 
a chatbox alongside. A live-event can be difficult to get across to the 
audience, so Up-stage Festival will get the benefit of doubt  and the 
participators will have to judge the cyberformances not purely on it's artistic 
value, but on the overall quality of the experiment.
So, it's up to you - Visit one of the  shows and please let me know.

Jennie is good with old new media so it's great to see she's on holiday... I'm 
showing Nina Pope and Karen Guthrie's artists impression of a text based 
environment ( somewhere.org.uk + telnet ) here in Tasmania and I hope I'll bump 
into Jennie on my virtual travels.. Please feel free to join in and talk to 
gallery visitors  on Nina  and Karen's MUSH :) ... This *is* social networking

[NetBehaviour] [d/Lux/MediaArts] NEW IDEAS at Government House

[Neil Jenkins]

In this issue

NEW IDEAS: New media Exhibition & Design Forum
The Garden of Forking Paths in Burnie
Face to Face in Bundaberg and touring with Asialink
Line of Lode (Angelica Mesiti) at QUT
Reading the Body (Sue Healey) at QUT
Mobile Screenfest: 'shot on mobile' festival

Connect with d/Lux/MediaArts



Do you know someone who'd like this newsletter?


Wow! Are we busy this month at d/Lux.

Not only have we moved offices to the lovely Lilyfield artshub, we  
have exhibitions galore on this month, including NEW IDEAS, a  
Historic Houses Trust initiative for Sydney Design 2010.  Full  
details are below.


With the release of the iPad and other new platforms, mobile  
technologies are continuing to emerge as areas of innovation and  
creativity. Following the success of last year's Razorhurst GPS  
device game, we have some d/Lux/Mobile projects underway that we are  
very excited about—but more about THAT at a later date.


As early as 2005, d/Lux/MediaArts created the Mobile Journeys  
initiative to explore mobile screen capabilities—including the  
creation of a mini-series shot for mobile in conjunction with the  
South Australian Film Corporation and a mobile film-making master  
class—and we have continued to explore this area under the d/Lux/ 
Mobile banner.


In this spirit, we are pleased to support Mobile Screenfest,  
Australia's first 'shot on mobile' film festival, who are asking  
everyone to submit film, video or photographic entries shot on mobile  
phone.  More info below.


By the way, you may also have noticed that we are Twittering and  
Facebooking away. Come and join us there; we'd love to hear from you.

Hart, Sarah Barns, Professor Ross Harley, Dr. Caroline Butler-Bowdon  
and d/Lux’s own Neil Jenkins. Read more

THE GARDEN OF FORKING PATHS IN BURNIE


Artists have always been early adopters of technology, stretching the  
bounds of the possible, and gaming has been no exception. In The  
Garden of Forking Paths, curator Neil Jenkins has drawn together  
seven notable games—both historic and contemporary—that break the  
orthodox set of rules.


Virtual reality pioneer Jaron Lanier's 1983 Moondust game designed  
for the Commodore 64—widely considered the first art video game and  
the first interactive music publication—allows the player to guide a  
spaceman around the screen creating strange patterns and abstract  
ambient sounds. In Puppet Motel, Laurie Anderson and Hsin-Chien Huang  
create a virtual world of interactive vignettes populated with  
Anderson's stories, songs and imagery, and beautifully crafted into  
an immersive environment by Hsin-Chien Huang. Based on the Little Red  
Riding Hood tradition, The Path by Tale of Tales is a terrifyingly  
beautiful game in which the player chooses one of six little girls to  
journey deep into the forest to grandmother's house, but will she  
stray from the path and meet her wolf ?


The Garden of Forking Paths is on at Burnie Regional Gallery from 27  
July to 12 September.

Re: [NetBehaviour] lizard

[Neil Jenkins]

I haven't had the pleasure of seeing many big skinks since I arrived  
in Australia but my garden is full of little ones - they're beautiful  
little creatures and help keep the insect population at bay - so my  
fingers are safe for moment and the mosquitos are not ! :)


I took some photos of the recent Cicada hatchings in my garden..  
another amazingly adaptable species, outwitting its natural predators  
with fibonacci intelligence, prime numbers of years as a grub under  
the soil feeding on root sap, then a magnificent emergency and  
shedding of skin, followed by singing with the loudest voices for the  
summer months high up in the trees, mating and dieing. These  
greengrocers sing up to 130 decibels, more than enough to drown out  
the sounds of the direct flight path to Sydney airport above me and  
go into song at particular temperatures..

Most of the time they sleep because it is either too cool (they  
like it above 25c) or they’ve found a really nice spot to sit in  
the sun. They are easy to catch, but watch those gums!

A skink is a kind of lizard and therefore a reptile (1)

biology seep to the surface

so how to communicate in this age

“Their general body shape is similar,

 Hi all,

 Recovering from quite an evening on the redio last night.

 Apologies for the unexpected 'false' start when suddenly, my
 introductory text for introducing Danja, James & Steven from Access
 Space was somehow deleted!

 Other than that - I think it went pretty well.

 Forgot a couple of things, mainly because it was so packed with  
 a lot of
 interesting stuff, and the time just seemed to fly by.

 On the whole, we are very excited about the radio show on  
 Resonance fm,
 and know that we'll get better at it.

 I hope some of you out there found some time to have a listen,  
 and much
 thanks to all those who did listen and of course thank you to the
 Twitter gang joining as well :-)

Re: [NetBehaviour] Mondrian remix

[Neil Jenkins]

Thanks Pall,

it should be a microcode, I'm refining it at the moment, but it takes  
an image, counts individual coloured pixels and then orders them in  
blocks using the same aspect ratio as the original. I'm aiming for  
HSL rather than RGB (which appears in the following two examples).

Re: [NetBehaviour] Derek Jarman's birthday would be today! Now yesterday ; -)

[Neil Jenkins]

Tilda Swinton gave a wonderful talk, "In the Spirit of Derek Jarman"  
at the Edinburgh Film Festival in August 2002, a truly frank and  
impassioned memorial lecture to this brilliant man.


I've often referenced it, most recently while giving a talk about  
'the creative producer as collaborator' in tandem with excerpts from  
Marc and Ruth's essay for Coding Cultures handbook, examining the  
beginnings of Furtherfield amidst the branding and commodification of  
art by Saatchi & Saatchi and the like


[Do It With Others (DIWO): contributory media in the Furtherfield  
Neighbourhood - http://www.dlux.org.au/codingcultures/handbook.html ]


A couple of quotes from Swinton
"I had run away to join a different circus myself: Planet Jarmania.  
You were the first person I met who could gossip about St Thomas  
Aquinas and hold a steady camera at the same time. I thought it would  
be good to hang out with you for six weeks: I guess we had things to  
say. Our outfit was an internationalist brigade. Decidedly pre- 
industrial. A little loud, a lot louche. Not always in the best  
possible taste. And not quite fit, though it saddened and maddened us  
to recognise it, for wholesome family entertainment.


Wholesome families were all the rage then. There was a fashion for a  
thing called "normal" and there was a plague abroad called  
"perversion". There was no such thing as society, and culture meant  
something to do with yogurt (this was before the Sunday Times  
educated us that culture means digested opinions about marketable  
artistic endeavours)."


...

"The dead hand of good taste has commenced its last great attempt to  
buy up every soul on the planet, and from where I'm sitting, it's  
going great guns. Art is now indivisible from the idea of culture,  
culture from heritage, heritage from tourism, tourism from what I saw  
emblazoned recently on the window of an American chain store in  
Glasgow - "the art of leisure". That means, incidentally, velours

Derek Jarman's birthday would be today! Now yesterday ;-)

As a mark of respect to Derek Jarman, I am posting some links to  
some of

his works which have inspired me...

Derek Jarman (31 January 1942 – 19 February, 1994) was an English film
director, stage designer, artist, and writer.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derek_Jarman

Jubilee (1977 film), a cult film directed by Derek Jarman. It stars
Jenny Runacre, Ian Charleson, and a host of punk rockers. The title
refers to the Silver Jubilee of Elizabeth II in 1977.

"When Queen Elizabeth I asks her court alchemist to show her  
England in
the future, she’s transported 400 years to a post-apocalyptic  
wasteland

of roving girl gangs, an all-powerful media mogul, fascistic police,
scattered filth, and twisted sex. With Jubilee, legendary British
filmmaker Derek Jarman channeled political dissent and artistic daring
into a revolutionary blend of history and fantasy, musical and  
cinematic

experimentation, satire and anger, fashion and philosophy. With its
uninhibited punk petulance and sloganeering, Jubilee brings together
many cultural and musical icons of the time, including Jordan, Toyah
Willcox, Little Nell, Wayne County, Adam Ant, and Brian Eno (with his
first original film score), to create a genuinely unique,  
unforgettable

vision. Ahead of its time and often frighteningly accurate in its
predictions, it is a fascinating historical document and a gorgeous  
work

of film art." http://www.criterion.com/films/736

Jubilee was one of those films which influenced my own life  
greatly. The

spirit of the movie connected to me personally and (dare I say it)
spiritually, in respect of it triggering off various inner feelings
which before laid ungrounded. From then on, art, punk and everything
else fell into place...

Here is a snippet of Jubilee on Youtube

The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead (music video directed by Derek Jarman).
"The Queen Is Dead", starts with a soundbite from Bryan Forbes' 1962
British film The L-Shaped Room. Another instance of Morrissey's
fascination with '60s British cinema. The soundbite is Courtneidge's
character nostalgically singing the World War I song "Take Me Back to
Dear Old Blighty".

Hi Ana, Helen, Kath, Laura,

thanks for all the insights, knitting and crochet (and purl not  
perl ;] )


.. Ana, what materials were you working with in jail - fabric and  
needles ? more stories please


good news from here, Australian authorities now allow you to travel  
with knitting needles in hand luggage (and those really dangerous  
nail clippers)


I've seen a few other image to pattern software online but  thanks  
Helen, not seen knitpro before...

organised by goto10

make art is an international festival focussed on Free/Libre/Open  
Source Software (FLOSS) and open content in digital arts. make art  
offers performances, presentations, workshops and an exhibition,  
focused on the blurred line between art and software programming.  
The festival is dedicated to all free software artists, open  
hardware hackers and command-line fetishists out there.


make art creates a stage for casual and intensive exchange of  
knowledge and skill between invited artists, musicians,  
programmers, specialists and the audience. It combines reflection  
and production by connecting presentations, workshops, performances  
and exhibition.


This year make art focusses on distributed and open practices in  
FLOSS art. What the fork?! is about decentralization. Forking is  
the new black. Work from one source, copy, patch, improve,  
experiment, change direction, inspire! Forking is not about quick  
hacks, but about creating room to experiment, letting go of the one  
working copy and creating a multiplicity of ideas.



make art takes place from the 8th til the 13th of December 2009 in  
Poitiers, France.

[NetBehaviour] 24/7 Stasi-Live-Haft

[Neil Jenkins]

“24/7 Stasi-Live-Haft” (24/7 Stasi-Live-Imprisonment) – an art  
performance according to the idea of

Franziska Vu and Carl-Wolfgang Holzapfel
October 29 to November 5, 2009
Memorial Berlin-Hohenschönhausen

Interrogations lasting hours on end, absolute isolation, total  
supervision – today, the former prison of the state security service  
(Stasi) of the former East Germany in Berlin-Hohenschönhausen is a  
synonym for the inhuman prison conditions in the former GDR. Here,  
seconds became hours – and hours became days.


The former prisoner in this Stasi remand prison Berlin- 
Hohenschönhausen, Carl-Wolfgang Holzapfel, is now returning under  
realistic conditions to a cell of the Stasi prison for seven days.  
The campaign will be transmitted to the Internet via webcam right  
around the clock. Thus, you can experience it live from the  
perpetrator's perspective at your computer.

Hi John, and netbehaviourists...

Thanks for the kind feedback about visitors studio.. I've still got a  
few tiny bugs to iron out with the piece running on our spangly new  
server, the main one being the timeout - thanks for pointing out that  
this is occurring in 'solo' mode - not something I had noticed and  
should only occur in live mode with investigations I've made so far.  
I'll update everyone when we've resolved this, but in the meantime,  
please carry on enjoying VStudio and doing it with others :)


best wishes

Neil

[NetBehaviour] The Garden of Forking Paths

[Neil Jenkins]

The Garden of Forking Paths

An exhibition of historic and contemporary artists' computer games.

Jorge Luis Borges' 1941 short story "The Garden of Forking Paths"  
predates the Internet but its notions of non-linearity, the storyline  
surrounding an infinite, labyrinthine book that realises multiple  
paths and futures are echoed in the information age with hypertext,  
the World Wide Web and the form and structure of computer games.

Just as Borges and his contemporaries pushed the envelope of the  
narrative form, so too artists have been creating and modifying  
computer games, experimenting with the notions of what a game is and  
exploring alternate approaches to interaction and play methodologies.  
This exhibition draws together notable historic and contemporary  
examples of games created by artists that push the bounds of the  
genre and break the orthodox set of rules.

Puppet Motel
Laurie Anderson (USA)
with Hsin-Chien Huang (Taiwan)
1995

Laurie Anderson's interactive CD ROM Puppet Motel is an imaginary  
universe made up of the interplay between light and darkness, mystery  
and poetry. This universe is populated by puppets and, of course, its  
creator, the artist herself. The three dimensional virtual spaces are  
crammed with ghosts and secrets: the visitor is constantly taken by  
surprise.

Watch out for the electric sockets - they will take you back to the  
hall of time. If you get stuck or lost, press the ‘esc' key to go to  
the motel basement where you can access all of the rooms.

Space Invaders Act 1732
Andy Deck (USA) 1995

Space Invaders Act 1732 is a response to the Space Advertising  
Prohibitions Act of 1993, legislation against giant advertising  
billboards in space that plays with the symbolism of the arcade classic.

Andy Deck makes public art for the Internet that resists generic  
categorisation: collaborative drawing spaces, game-like search  
engines, problematic interfaces, informative art. An avid critic of  
corporate culture and militarism, Deck's hybrid news-art projects  
have addressed a variety of issues that are regularly misrepresented  
in the mass media. In the interest of preserving this available  
alternative media, and sensing the drift of the Internet toward a  
marketing and entertainment medium, he has allied himself with open  
source software developers, optimising his work for use with the  
Linux operating system, and publishing source code for much of his  
software.

CuteXDoom II
Anita Fontaine (Australia) & Mike Pelletier (Canada)
2008

CuteXDoom II is psychedelic video-game mod that takes a violent shoot  
em up and converts it into an experience of popular cultures  
obsession cuteness. Your character has joined a supermodern religious  
cult which believes that the worship of cute material objects will  
lead to happiness and enlightenment (or nasty experience!!).

Once granted access to the cult; thus completing level one, the  
character then finds themselves awoken from a paroxysm to a now  
hauntingly surreal landscape: the once hyper-cute characters have  
been altered to appear malevolent, predatory. The protagonist has  
essentially been “poisoned” by the cult, and the objective undergoes  
a paradigm shift to escape the cult. The character must then mediate  
a psychedelic hyperspectra of disorientating hallucinogenic optical  
effects. Fontaine draws the parallels between the “poison” of vapid  
materialism allowed to run rampant, and literally peels back the  
façade of “cuteness” to reveal a problematized cultural landscape.

Moondust
Jaron Lanier (USA) 1983

Moondust is a generative music video game created for the Commodore  
64 by virtual reality pioneer, Jaron Lanier and is widely considered  
the first art video game, it is also considered to be the first  
interactive music publication. Lanier formed VPL which would later go  
on to create the DataGlove and to become one of the primary  
innovators of virtual-reality research and development throughout the  
1980s.

Moondust's gameplay is characterized by graphical complexity, and the  
game features an abstract ambient score. The goal of the game is to  
guide a spaceman around the screen creating strange patterns and  
getting bullet-shaped spaceships to pass through the trails that the  
spaceman creates. In in-game scoring system assigns point-values  
according to an algorithm.

Re: [NetBehaviour] Australian censorship

[Neil Jenkins]

Hi Corrado,

This does appear to be the case, here's an article from last  
Thursday's Sydney Morning Herald
http://www.smh.com.au/digital-life/games/web-filters-to-censor-video- 
games-20090625-cxrx.html


The ban already exists on the physical sale of games that are  
considered too explicit or violent, there's a good article on CNET  
which looks at the history of game classification over here (National  
Classification Scheme legislation). The introduction of an R18+  
rating has been considered but would have to  be agreed by all state  
and territory Attorneys-Generals before being put to legislation at a  
Federal level, this has already received objections from the  
Victorian minister in 2008.


http://www.cnet.com.au/censory-overload-games-censorship-in- 
australia-339288039.htm


Games are not the only media that may face mandatory censorship and  
filtering by ISPs with no customer opt-out in new legislation being  
pushed by Labour's Communication Minister Stephen Conroy. The No  
Clean Feed campaign is a great source of news and background information

The Australian government has set their eyes on gamers, promising  
to user its internet censorship regime to block websites hosting  
and selling video games that are not suitable for 15 year olds. Can  
you imagine the number of games that will be included?


I was feeling bad for Germans as there was a proposed banning for  
all violent games but Australia is about to take it much harder. To  
further complicate things, Australia does not have even have a R18+  
rating. For video games, MA15+ is as high as it goes while movies  
and such has R18+ and X18+. Games will be required to modify their  
content to meet the MA15+ guidelines in order for distribution.

ARTIST CLEARED OF ALL CHARGES IN PRECEDENT-SETTING CASE
Department of Justice Fails to Appeal Dismissal
Kurtz Speaks about Four-Year Ordeal

Buffalo, NY--Dr. Steven Kurtz, a Professor of Visual Studies at  
SUNY at
Buffalo and cofounder of the award-winning art and theater group  
Critical
Art Ensemble, has been cleared of all charges of mail and wire  
fraud. On
April 21, Federal Judge Richard J. Arcara dismissed the  
government's entire
indictment against Dr. Kurtz as "insufficient on its face." This  
means that
even if the actions alleged in the indictment (which the judge must  
accept
as "fact") were true, they would not constitute a crime. The US  
Department
of Justice had thirty days from the date of the ruling to appeal.  
No action

has been taken in this time period, thus stopping any appeal of the
dismissal. According to Margaret McFarland, a spokeswoman for US  
Attorney
Terrance P. Flynn, the DoJ will not appeal Arcara's ruling and will  
not seek

any new charges against Kurtz.

For over a decade, cultural institutions worldwide have hosted  
Kurtz and
Critical Art Ensemble's educational art projects, which use common  
science
materials to examine issues surrounding the new biotechnologies. In  
2004 the
Department of Justice alleged that Dr. Kurtz had schemed with  
colleague Dr.
Robert Ferrell of the University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of  
Public
Health to illegally acquire two harmless bacteria cultures for use  
in one of
those projects. The Justice Department further alleged that the  
transfer of
the material from Ferrell to Kurtz broke a material transfer  
agreement, thus

constituting mail fraud.

Under the USA PATRIOT Act, the maximum sentence for these charges was
increased from five years to twenty years in prison.

Dr. Kurtz has been fighting the charges ever since. In October  
2007, Dr.
Ferrell pleaded to a lesser misdemeanor charge after recurring  
bouts of
cancer and three strokes suffered since his indictment prevented  
him from

continuing the struggle.

KURTZ SUMS UP END OF FOUR-YEAR NIGHTMARE

Finally vindicated after four years of struggle, Kurtz, asked for a
statement, responded stoically: "I don't have a statement, but I do  
have
questions. As an innocent man, where do I go to get back the four  
years the
Department of Justice stole from me? As a taxpayer, where do I go  
to get

back the millions of dollars the FBI and Justice Department wasted
persecuting me? And as a citizen, what must I do to have a Justice
Department free of partisan corruption so profound it has turned on  
those it

is sworn to protect?"

Said Kurtz's attorney, Paul Cambria,  "I am glad an innocent man  
has been
vindicated. Steve Kurtz stared in the face of the federal  
government and a
twenty-year prison term and never flinched, because he believes in  
his work
and his actions were those of a completely innocent man. Clients  
like him
are a blessing, and although I have had many important victories,  
this one

stands at the top of the list."

As coordinator of the CAE Defense Fund, a group organized to  
support Kurtz
from the beginning of the case, Lucia Sommer sees the end of the  
prosecution
as bittersweet, and like Kurtz, is thoughtful about the broader  
significance

of the case:  "This ruling is the best possible ending to a horrible
ordeal--but we are mindful of numerous cases still pending, and the  
grave
injustices perpetrated by the Bush administration following 9/11.  
This case
was part of a larger picture, in which law enforcement was given  
expanded
powers. In this instance, the Bush administration was unsuccessful  
in its

attempt to erode Americans' constitutional rights."

Referring to the international outcry the case provoked, involving
fundraisers and protests held on four continents, Sommer said, "The
government has unlimited resources to bring and prosecute these  
kinds of

charges, but the accused often don't have any resources to defend
themselves. This victory could never have happened without the  
activism of
thousands of people. Supporters protested, vocally opposed the  
prosecution,

and refused to let it go on in silence. And without their efforts at
fundraising, Kurtz and Ferrell would not have been able to defend  
themselves

from these false accusations."

Sommer added that the next step for the defense will be to get back  
all of

the materials taken by the FBI during its 2004 raid on the Kurtz home,
including several completed art projects, as well as Dr. Kurtz's lab
equipment, computers, books, manuscri

find common cause on this audio-document from Audiobulb, compiling  
ten pieces representing selected artists' Favourite Places. Captured  
field recordings blend with musical treatments to make mementoes  
enfolding inspiring source within inspired composition.

"Hectic Tenuous - Chic Nerve" (review)
Starting with flanged, panned scratching (ala fingernails, not  
decks), this solo CDR from The Caution Curves laptop lady Rebecca  
Mills, is an eleven track melange of textures, echoes, drones,  
processed field recordings and even the occasional bit of singing!

"La Ciutat Ets Tu - Tomasz Krakowiak" (review)
La Ciutat Et Tu surrounds the listener with evolving percussive  
transformations in timbre. The compositions have a circular unwinding  
quality, never abrasive and utterly hypnotic. Tomasz Krakowiak is a  
Polish-born percussionist now living in Toronto, Canada. Having  
collaborated with the likes of Kaffe Matthews, John Oswald, Phil  
Minton, Otomo Yoshihide, Gert-Jan Prins among others

"Love City by Dsic" (review)
Dsic, also known as Greg Godwin, is a Bristol-based noise artist that  
employs a wide range of influences and sound sources. Love City and  
the miniDsic EP, both released through Lf Records, weave their way  
through noise, drone, glitch, ambient and microsound.

"Nelson Foltz and Tom Lynn - Still Life (series)" (review)
The internally themed Rothko-esque cover art of the Still Life series  
could stand as a semiotic of Nelson Foltz and Tom Lynn’s sound, with  
its slow-shifting tones that spread across a spartan canvas -  
ostensibly static swathes that reveal micro-variativity on deeper  
insertion.

"Of Memory & Dreams - Bill Thompson" (review)
There is a trajectory that many improvised electro acoustic  
performances reach, which although unique in every given context,  
often manage to take you to a zen like point where you become one  
with the signal and phase in and out of listening to the development  
of structure or dynamic of the work.

"Three Rooms - Steve Peters" (review)
Sound artist Steve Peters' recent CD, Three Rooms documents three of  
his site-specific installations. The three pieces succeed without  
reference to the installations for which the pieces were originally  
composed, capturing the quiet reflection of the original locations.

[NetBehaviour] Istanbul - a transitory sound journey by Roger Mills.

[neil jenkins]

Istanbul

A transitory sound journey by Roger Mills
with Visuals by Neil Jenkins

http://www.eartrumpet.org/istanbul



Istanbul is a soundtrack composed of trumpet improvisations and 
manipulated field recordings taken from a recent visit to the city 
which was originally performed live online and web cast at the Placard 
Headphone Festival in Regensburg, Germany in August 2007. It is an 
audio journey through the city focusing on the diverse sound 
environments I encountered whilst visiting it's different areas. Most 
of the recordings were taken as I moved around the city on various 
forms of transport including walking. They include street musicians, 
trams, traffic, street ambience, the ritual call to prayers, a scratchy 
old 45rpm single bought in one of the bazaars, all of which 
characterise the variety of everyday sounds to be experienced in 
Istanbul.

Developing the theme that locational sound environments can inspire and 
trigger creative musical responses I layered and sequenced these field 
recordings in order of their inherent tonal & rhythmic qualities. I 
then used the resulting sound collages to improvise trumpet melodies 
and textures from a mixture of looping tones and effects. I view this 
process as a streaming of musical consciousness guided by the sound 
collages and my memory and emotional experiences of the city.

In it's original performance Istanbul was accompanied by an live online 
visual mix by Neil Jenkins who had also visited the city with me. This 
was produced through the online A/V platform VisitorsStudio.org and 
projected into the gallery space in Regensburg. The complete audio 
visual mix can be viewed at http://www.eartrumpet.org/istanbul

yes - make sure you download it soon, it'll be online till tuesday I  
think





i hope i don't miss many things because it is in english, ajj

the last thing i've been thinking about was the fact of improvisation.

i wonder if it could be said that humans tend to improvise in  
symmetric patterns




interesting thought, I'd say this is true in the case of many musicians  
improvising, but then I'd say that music itself has an innate symmetry  
through rhythm and tone, and in it's physical dynamic as a waveform (eg  
double the wavelength and the tone moves down one octave, the sub  
harmonics of a vibrating string appearing as recursively divided  
vibrations of the overall note)



and...
this is stupid, but funny... i've been thinking about the new  
criatures in science fict movies, for instance, and all them, as far  
as i remember, are symmetric, no matter if they have body of man and  
head of fish, or they resemble sort-of-horses... they all are  
symmetric. even the characters of pixar's monsters s.a. were  
symmetric.


the program mentions our cognitive perception of other things that are  
symmetrical - in nature this can be seen in recognition of other  
animals for survival - eat or be eaten ! the symmetry of flowers and  
bees sensitivity to this symmetry whilst having otherwise quite poor  
visual perception.


When things that we concieve *should* be symmetrical are not, they  
appear odd; if the non symmetry is subtle it is quite difficult to  
describe what actually *is* odd about what we see; whether it be  
reflective symmetry or rotational symmetry. In a more extreme case, say  
an amputee, our brain becomes quite fascinated with the missing limb.  
the mythical cyclops whilst appearing symmetrical plays this further;  
the one eye upsetting our percieved idea of a face and thus making it  
appear strange or unworldly.


Something not discussed in the program is the effect of environmental  
factors on our visual perception, take for example the Müller-Lyer  
Illusion where two lines of equal length appear different when  
arrowheads are added, pointing inward on ne line and outward on the  
other:






"Experiments reported in 1966 by Segall, Campbell and Herskovitz  
suggested that the Müller-Lyer illusion may be absent or reduced  
amongst people who grow up in certain environments. They tested some  
Zulu people in South Africa who, at the time, lived in circular huts  
with arched doorways and had little experience of Western rectangular  
buildings. The Zulus seemed less affected by the Müller-Lyer illusion.  
The argument is that these people lived in a 'circular culture' whereas  
those who are more subject to the illusion live in a 'carpentered  
world' of rectangles and parallel lines (Segall, Campbell & Herskovits  
1966). Europeans and Americans are more likely to interpret oblique and  
acute angles as displaced right angles and to perceive two-dimensional  
drawings in terms of depth."

SYMMETRY

Today we will be discussing symmetry, from the most perfect forms in  
nature, like the snowflake and the butterfly, to our perceptions of  
beauty in the human face. There's symmetry too in most of the laws  
that govern our physical world.


The Greek philosopher Aristotle described symmetry as one of the  
greatest forms of beauty to be found in the mathematical sciences,  
while the French poet Paul Valery went further, declaring; “The  
universe is built on a plan, the profound symmetry of which is  
somehow present in the inner structure of our intellect”.


The story of symmetry tracks an extraordinary shift from its role as  
an aesthetic model - found in the tiles in the Alhambra and Bach's  
compositions - to becoming a key tool to understanding how the  
physical world works. It provides a major breakthrough in mathematics  
with the development of group theory in the 19th century. And it is  
the unexpected breakdown of symmetry at sub-atomic level that is so  
tantalising for contemporary quantum physicists.


So why is symmetry so prevalent and appealing in both art and nature?  
How does symmetry enable us to grapple with monstrous numbers? And  
how might symmetry contribute to the elusive Theory of Everything?

The journey begins with ominous bass drones and industrial machine

panning and acoustic mind fuck.

[NetBehaviour] Fwd: "Quote me!" by Garrett Lynch

[neil jenkins]

a wonderful new piece of work from Garrett Lynch :)

Begin forwarded message:


From: Garrett Lynch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: 6 December 2006 18:06:56 GMT
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: "Quote me!" by Garrett Lynch

Announcing the release of "Quote me!" by Garrett Lynch:

http://www.asquare.org/project/quote-me/

(please be patient this may take a few moments to load)

---

Every good artist has at least one quote, aphorism or soundbite 
attributed to them, yet the new media artist barely has time to keep 
up with the rapid change of technology let alone spend time thinking 
of witty aphorisms.


"Quote me!" is a work, triggered by users to its web page, that reuses 
quotes and the date they were expressed from various online sources 
for the busy new media artist who hasn't time. Quotes are relevant 
comments to current political and social events, both nationally and 
internationally, taken from the current headlines of a handful of 
global newspapers via their respective rss / xml feeds, yet placed 
without context or explanation.


Information and the database have become the ultimate pervasive 
commodity. New things are no longer said and done instead they are 
recombined, recompiled or remixed from the archives we are 
continuously compiling both as individuals and as a race.


"Quote me!" is in a sense an agent for the artist. Reusing the media's 
carefully edited information as source for quotes the agent is able to 
automatically recycle information for the artists use. Allocated 
parameters it is given free reign to search and retrieve others quotes 
from the internet, republishing and archiving them on its web page. 
Quotes are attributed to the artist ensuring that (s)he has a voice in 
a space where things need to be continually said. The importance or 
profoundness of what is said becomes unimportant, replaced instead by 
the regularity and continuous act of saying.


A web 2.0 tool or service as work of art, "Quote me!" both continues 
themes of net.art (reusing, recycling, transforming) and 
simultaneously highlights the redundancy of it as a tool when the 
content is unoriginal and without context. It draws attention to the 
highly important exploration involved in these types of recombinatory 
net.art works, not possible outside of the internet, yet questions the 
same use of techniques employed in their creation for the critical 
discourse that surrounds them in our collaborative, tagging, 
reblogging and ever more copied, unoriginal content of web 2.0.
