. EXHIBITION: Ivan Marusic Klif, Telephoning VENUE: Galerija Galzenica, Zagreb/Velika Gorica, http://www.galerijagalzenica.info/english.html DATE: February 20, 2008 TIME: 7:00 - 9:00 pm The artwork of Ivan Marušić Klif feature two aspects of media art: one is the use of contemporary electronic and digital technology in the art world context and the other is a research of relationship between human being and his/her technological environment. In the space of an art exhibition, the both aspects are usually indistinguishable: visitor enters the enclosed, technologically created environment, changes its parameters and, leaving more less visible traces of his/ her presence, walks out. If we had to choose a corresponding genre, closest to his work, it would be an artistic intervention known as ambient installation. Whether Marušić works with sound, light or video image, he usually construes an enclosed ambience, rather different from the visitors' well-known everyday environment. Over time, his ambiences have become technologically more complex. In 1993, his early light ambiences consisted of mobile objects whose moves changed the type and intensity of the light. In 1995, computer set in motion and controlled the installations while since 2001, Marušić has started working with complex interactive sound and video installations. The series of exhibitions entitled “Inside/Outside” that took place in Zagreb, Croatia, Maribor, Slovenia and Labin, Croatia from 2004-2007 were the best examples of the author's approach to technologically determined, interactive ambiences. It was a video installation that functioned according to the principle of a closed circle of production, processing and projection of an image. Differently positioned cameras produced the image that went through the system of monitors and cameras for several times and then was projected on the walls and monitors in the gallery. The cameras were directly linked to the monitors and video projectors, while the computer controlled their moves, zoom and focus. There was no digital image processing. The installation was in motion, changing the ambience of the space independently of visitors. Marušić's ambiences are extremely visually attractive so we may feel that the aspect of interactivity disrupts technological biotope rather than supporting it. One of the most distinguished qualities of Marušić's work is that, although a trace of interactivity aspect can be found, the installation is actually independent of visitors' participation. At the Galženica Gallery exhibition, the potential of his ambient installation to function on its own, without interaction with visitors, is stressed even more. With the help of computer algorithm, Marušić randomly dials phone numbers taken out from the public database of the phone book of Republic Croatia. The dialled users take part in unwanted communication through Skype web server. On the other hand, the visitors can choose between the positions of a voyeur/ listener or a participant/ collocutor. Seen from today's perspective, there is something fair about his installations. They have never bothered us with interactivity, in fact the illusion that a visitor participates on equal terms in creation of (new) media artwork. Marušić seduces us with potentials of technology and the beauty of technollogically generated images rather than warning us of cultural and political backround of every technology, including the one used in the art context. - Klaudio Štefančić Links: (1) http://boo.mi2.hr/~klif/ (2) http://www.mediascape.info/seiten/2006/marusic.htm -- Pučko otvoreno učilište Velika Gorica GALERIJA GALŽENICA Trg Stjepana Radića 5 HR - 10410 Velika Gorica tel:+385 1 6221 122 / fax: 6226 740 www.galerijagalzenica.info ___ nettime-ann mailing list nettime-ann@nettime.org http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-ann

For tickets please contact 213-746-2166 or www.panoramaonview.org ($15, $10 members/students). CONCRETE DAISIES is a site-specific performance/installation of dance, sound, and live-feed video projection. A stellar ensemble of dancers, musicians, and video artists will explore the interior and exterior spaces of the Velaslavasay Panorama at the Union Theater, an historic exhibition hall, theatre and garden dedicated to the production and presentation of unusual visual experiences. The garden of concrete daisies will play foil to the theater¹s own ³garden of carnivorous plants and sinister foliage². Opportunity for a bird¹s eye view pointed to an investigation of that which can only be understood from above, thus introducing the concept of the labyrinth. This performance assumes a hybrid form that collapses the boundaries between installation / live-feed video shoot / live dance / live music / and live video projection. The viewer is invited to roam through this immersive environment and grapple with the simultaneity of the live performers and how they are mediated into the visual and audio spatial mix. It is ultimately a structured improvisation where the viewer witnesses the instantaneous, responsive dialogue between dancer, cameraperson, video artist and musician.

nettime-ann [ann] Digital Culture class at Berkeley Art Museum
. DIGITAL CULTURE 0101: A New Public Course at the Berkeley Art Museum Pacific Film Archive Thursday evenings, October 5-November 9 http://bampfa.berkeley.edu/courses How does digital media influence our perception and experience of space and time? What are its social implications? The first offering in an exciting new initiative to present public courses at BAM/PFA, Digital Culture 0101 gives you a chance to discuss issues like these with artists and experts in the field, and promises a wide-ranging and thought-provoking introduction to new media as they reflect and interact with our culture. Digital Culture 0101 and other upcoming courses are designed to expand on BAM/PFA's exhibitions and programs to provide new contexts and ways of interacting with the arts. A spring 2007 class will explore the art and implications of the BAM exhibition Measure of Time. Like the popular PFA film-lecture course Film 50, these classes are open to the general public as well as UC Berkeley students (see below for registration details). Digital Culture 0101 draws upon the museum's pioneering use of digital media and its commitment to digital art, within the larger contexts of UC Berkeley's increasing attention to new media and the Bay Area as a center of digital culture. The course offers a non-technical look at issues surrounding digital media through the lens of digital art, with special attention to works now on view in Measure of Time. With session topics like space and time, the body, interactivity, social context, and collective memory, the instructor and guest speakers including Ken Goldberg, Scott Snibbe, Camille Utterback, Jon Phillips, all practicing digital media artists, will address such questions as: - What is digital media and what makes it different from other media? - How do people and computers interact with one another? - What does it mean to be interactive? - Can we believe what we see through digital media? - Although we have more information than ever, are we becoming more forgetful? The course will be taught by Richard Rinehart, BAM/PFA's director of digital media and a nationally exhibited new media artist. Rinehart has taught at UC Berkeley for six years, currently in the Center for New Media. A leader in the world of digital media and museums, he has also curated exhibitions of digital art. Course Schedule and Syllabus When: Thursday evenings, October 5-November 9, 6:30-8:30 p.m. Where: Museum Theater Cost: $225 for six-session course; $175 for BAM/PFA members and non-UCB students; free for UC Berkeley students Advance Registration Required: Online: http://bampfa.berkeley.edu/courses By phone: (510) 642-5249, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily In person: at the museum's Bancroft lobby admissions desk ___ nettime-ann mailing list nettime-ann@nettime.org http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-ann

RFID allows for the unique identification of objects, and any kind of =20= online data can be linked to these unique ID's. If RFID becomes an =20 open web-based platform, and users can tag, share, and contribute =20 content to the digital existence of their own places and objects, we =20 can truly speak of an Internet of Things. This opens perpectives for =20 new sustainability scenario's, for new relations between people and =20 the stuff they have, and for other locative applications. The participants of this workshop will develop critical, utopian or =20 nightmarish concepts for an Internet of Things in a hands-on way. =20 Ideas can range from scripts for small new rituals to outlines of =20 societal changes of epic scale. Prototypes can be tested with the =20 workshop tools The Symbolic Table or the Nokia3220 phone with RFID =20 reader. The workshop has room for 16 designers, artists, thinkers and makers. =20= Participation fee is =80350 per person, ex BTW. Lunches, technical =20 equipment and assistance are included. If you want to participate in =20 this workshop, please register at our online registration form: http://www.mediamatic.net/workshopregistration For questions or more information, surf to http://www.mediamatic.net/=20 workshops, mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], or call Klaas Kuitenbrouwer: +31 20 =20 6389901.

This is EXACTLY 495 YEARS after the introduction of the american potato into europe. Dick El Demasiado, AWAKENING ROOSTER of the cumbias experimentales, flew 240.000 kilometers with his band and his crew to offer OUR GENERATION THE ONLY succesful pleasure-event, after orgasm, that needs no pre-marketing. Festicumex, an insult to PATHETIC CATEGORISATIONS, started in Honduras, then flew over to Buenos Aires and Mexico City. End June it will wallow in SEPTIC luxury and the waters of the Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven. All agree it is a small-scale happy incoherence. Cumbias Experimentales, with bands like CHICA POCO PUM, Los three 4-get, HYGIENICA GONZALEZ, AntiTango General, and of course, DICK EL DEMASIADO Y Sus Exagerados, is a genre that shakes soulfat. The storm started to build up with the inauguration in Mexico City of the BIGGEST NATIONAL electronic arts festival, Transitio.mx, soon followed by the trash secret Festicumex in a NEGLECTED SYNAGOGUE of Parque Patricios.

nettime-ann [ann] Artwork excapes from the exhibition
. Artwork excapes from the exhibition On the evening of February the 7th 2006, during the opening at Massimo De Carlo Art Gallery, in Milan, an artwork by the Austrian artists Gelitin mysteriously disappeared. It's a small pink rabbit made of wool and straw. The following letter finally reveals the mystery. --- March 15th, 2006 Dear Gelitin, Massimo De Carlo and Flavio Albanese, It's me, Rabbit. First I want to let you know I'm well; nobody hurt me. I escaped voluntarily, with the help of Alice. If my sudden escape worried you than I'm sorry. But you know, since the moment I became Art I started getting really bored. Ok, I'm worth a lot, but I expected something different. I thought I'd be admired and appreciated, but all the attention is actually for you dealers, collectors and artists. People come to my exhibitions just to meet each other and to see who's there. Nobody really cares about me. Moreover I was living in a bell jar. I was not allowed to do anything; only stay there between other Works of Art like me. You'd think being Contemporary Art would be all sex, drugs and rock'n'roll, but I just felt like an ornament! Maybe it was crazy, but try to understand; when I met Alice, coming from the real world, I started recalling how life was before being Art, and I couldn't resist, I escaped. After all, it was you who showed me that a Work of Art is not a mere object, but rather the attention built around it. Who knows, maybe by disappearing I'll get more! Now I'm free. Of course it's more risky; out here I'm not worth much, but I feel alive and have real emotions! Unpredictable things happen here, and you meet people who do and say what they want, without trying to turn everything into Art. But let's be honest, it's not a bed of roses out here. Life is tough. Having given up my Art privileges now I must earn a living, and it's not that easy. Without you guys convincing the people, nobody believes I am Art, they mistake me as an ordinary rabbit. So I decided to come back. But before I do I'd like you to do something for me: publish this photo of mine, for my act to be remembered. http://www.flickr.com/photos/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Well, I'm sorry but now I must leave, Alice wants to play. Remember, I'll be back only once I see my photo published! And in case I don't see you, good afternoon, good evening, and good night!

nettime-ann [ann] VSSTV - VERY SLOW SCAN TELEVISION
. VSSTV - VERY SLOW SCAN TELEVISION a new installation by Gebhard Sengm=FCller, in collaboration with Jakob Edlbacher (technical design), Johannes Obermayr (control engineering), Ludwig Ertl (programming), Gerhard Proksch-Weilguni (additional mechanics) and Andreas Konecky (additional programming) Very Slow Scan Television (VSSTV) is a new television format that we have developed building upon Slow Scan Television (SSTV), an almost 50-year-old image transmission system used by Ham Radio amateurs. In contrast to regular TV, SSTV runs on a dramatically reduced frame rate. Developed in 1957 by Copthorne Macdonald, Slow Scan Television uses the shortwave radio band (Ham Radio) to transmit television images. Ham Radio not only broadcasts information (as is the case with conventional radio), but also uses the radio spectrum for personal communications, usually on a point-to-point basis over a previously negotiated frequency. In contrast to telephone conversations, this communication is open and can be listened to by anyone who happens to be tuned into the same frequency. The Ham Radio band was reserved for the purpose of voice transmission, and therefore uses only a small amount of bandwidth. Broadcasting images within this narrow bandwidth requires reducing their quality and rules out transmitting moving images. Furthermore, the visual information has to be converted into an audio signal. According to British Ham Radio operator Guy Clark (N4BM), =93The original idea was to find a method of transmitting a television picture over a single speech channel. This meant that a typical (at that time) 3MHz wide television picture had to be reduced to around 3kHz (1000:1 reduction). It was decided at the outset that the scanning rates must be very slow, which precludes the use of moving pictures. The choice of time base for synchronizing was the readily available domestic power supply at 50 or 60 Hz (depending on the country of origin). This gave a line speed of 16.6Hz and 120 or 128 lines per frame (against the then UK standard of 405 lines (now 625) per frame), giving a new picture frame every 7.2 or 8 seconds. =85 The original SSTV systems were based on ex-government radar screens and cathode ray tubes with very long persistence (=93P7=94) phosphors. This allowed an image to be painted on the screen over a period of a few seconds.=94 The modulation technique often transmits defective images, evident in trapezoid distortions in the image caused by time synchronisation problems.=94 SSTV may suggest a parallel TV universe, one that developed during an era in which television monopolies were consolidating their hold over mass media culture. But it also shows similarities to current streaming and netcasting technologies where personal flair and taste determine the range of images broadcast. Texts and pictures refer to the location of the sender and his or her identifier. Self-referential features dominate. Guy Clark writes: =93What kinds of pictures are sent? Reviewing pictures saved during the last few weeks I found: Hams in their shacks, lots of pet dogs, a frog, kangaroo, astronauts in the Space Shuttle (SSTV has been transmitted from some missions!!!), bridges, birds, Elvis Presley, rock formations, an old fashioned microphone, antique cars, flowers, children, Jupiter, a cow, someone playing bagpipes, a UFO, many colorful butterflies, boats, and cartoon characters with personalized messages. Even the Russian Space Station MIR has been transmitting SSTV pictures recently!=94 VSSTV uses broadcasts from this historic public domain television system =97available anytime over freely accessible frequencies=97and regular bubble wrap to construct an analogous system in which the packing material functions as the aperture mask.

nettime-ann [ann] Gallery1F presents format.fetish
. nettimers Gallery1F is very excited to announce our second web-only exhibition, 'format.fetish,' featuring work by jonCates [.US] and ant scott [.UK], and invite you to our open reception in a pop-up window with music by net.dee.jay christian rieben. URI: http://gallery1f.org/ format.fetish highlights patterned choices of file formats and data structures byemploying multiple (some disparate, some related) digital systems by which to contextualize work by jonCates and Ant Scott. The exhibition presents the art works in a reduced but highly valent framework. In its collection of a variety of formats, format.fetish does not assume a maximal approach, but employs these formats as preparatorial limitations, filters of and windows into the work. With both contemporaries and predecessors in code-based artwork as inspiration, Chicago based artist jonCates manipulates files to both create art products and to re-frame the hystorical conditions of net.art. format.fetish presents the premier of his My Mini AVI. A complex space in which jonCates' alter-self, a seeming mini-jonCates, talks the viewer through a room designed after the Korean Internet community game 'cyworld'. In his room the mini-Cates is surrounded by television sets arranged like a Nam June Paik video installation. Each television screen plays a different video file reformatted from recordings jonCates made while in residency at The Experimental Television Center feeding the .co.kr iteration of net artist duo JODI's %WRONG Browser piece through a video system developed by Nam June Paik Shuya Abe called the 'Wobbulator.' Hypnotic and surreal jpgs, gifs and photographs created by British artist Ant Scott encourage visceral viewing as objects, outputs and side effects of Scott's transformations of computer dysfunctions (crashes and viruses) into digital and tangible images. Intuitively, Scott manipulates computer data and employs painterly abstraction onscreen; and through photo-paper transfers images off computer screens onto physical gallery walls. This recent digital-to-analog process makes a file format of paper. In format.fetish, Scott presents only digital renderings, permitting viewers to explore the images between the pixels. During the 48 hour opening reception, Gallery1F is joined by net.dee.jay. Christian Rieben with a performance of his set, 'Robot-Rock'. this programme will run for 02 months, from 2006-03-10 - 2006-05-10. thanks! gallery1f ___ nettime-ann mailing list nettime-ann@nettime.org http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-ann
