>
>BAUHAUS RADIO READER – CALL FOR PAPERS
>
>The Bauhaus in Weimar is the first university in Germany which has
>founded a Faculty of Media. Visual and auditive media are getting the
>same attention and the dispute on media is dealing with art, theory and
>technology. The chair for Experimental Radio, which was established in
>1999, is the only one in Germany which teaches radio in the context of
>fine arts. This artistic practice is understood as an open field which
>supports interdisciplinary approaches, in the range from aesthetic
>operations, newest technological developments and even political
>activism.
>The request of the Bauhaus Radio Reader is to give the students the
>opportunity for a self-determined recess on international discourses.
>There is a special emphasis on texts which locate radio in arts, in the
>culture of streaming media or which help the students to analyse the
>history and development of radio. The Radio Reader is first of all meant
>
>for the Bauhaus radio department and could be turned into a real book if
>
>we all think that it is worth presenting it to a publishing house. Other
>
>schools can of course use the reader too. The collection of essays
>should be copy left so that everyone can use it and it works more as an
>open source for the dispute which allows additions and inconsistence.
>A board of editors who overview by virtue of their outstanding knowledge
>
>and experience in the field of radio, art and media theory will be
>adressed to sample the texts. The selection will run by a small
>email-list and for further discussion collected at
>news://radiostudio.org/reader.discuss
>The Radio Reader should be seen a small, informal (xerox) follow-up
>of the Semiotext(e) publication Radiotexte, edited in 1992 by Neil
>Strauss. There is no contemporary radio reader available at the moment
>which reflects what happened to radio in the nineties. It could therefor
>
>be good to discuss together which key texts there are these days which
>deal with "broad radio", a re-invention of radio in the age of digital
>technologies, electronic music hype, the Internet, mp3, the further
>spreading of micro, free and pirate radios and the rave/club scene and
>net.radio of course. We could also include a few examples such as B92
>but also Ruanda (where radio played a very dubious role). Then there is
>of course the
>section of classic radio texts (which keep on being rediscovered)
>and examples how artists deal with radio.

>Preamble: see at http://www.artlibre.org
>With this Free Art License, you are authorised to copy, distribute and

>Far from ignoring the author's rights, this license recognises them and

>It reformulates their principle while making it possible for the public

>In fact, with the arrival of the digital age, the invention of the
>Internet and free software, a new approach to creation and production
>has made its appearance. It also encourages a continuation of the

>of experimentation undertaken by many contemporary artists.

>Knowledge and creativity are resources which, to be true to themselves,
>must remain free, i.e. remain a fundamental search which is not directly
>
>related to a concrete application. Creating means discovering the

>means inventing a reality without any heed to realism.
>Thus, the object(ive) of art is not equivalent to the finished and

>										Jeff Koons

>
>The Communications Department presents a range of ways artists respond to 
>the omnipresence / omnipotence of corporate images.
>
>The word ‘Lifestyle’ evokes branded lives, as if marketers have succeeded 
>where avant-garde artists, who sought a fusion of art and life, failed. Like 
>art, brands now communicate through every available media onto every 
>available surface - the conventional billboard or magazine ad is to modern 
>marketing techniques what painting or sculpture is to contemporary art. At 
>the same time, like much ambitious art of the last century, the big brands 
>have moved in on all aspects of our public and private lives and values, be 
>it education, government, spirituality, welfare, health, the arts, public 
>space, the environment, identity, subculture, political resistance. The  
>most successful have acquired the aura of universal abstract truths: Coke, 
>we know, is ‘the real thing’, and Diesel’s ‘for successful living’ (Liam 
>Gillick attempts to paint true Coke brown in his neo-Platonic wallpainting 
>“Inside now, we walked into a room with Coca-Cola walls”).
>
>What is left for the artist to do, and what space is there left to occupy? 
>Are corporations the master communicators today, in the way that artists 
>were when they were in the service of monarchs and the church? Is it 
>possible to act outside brand influences, or can their messages and systems 
>be re-appropriated and détourned? Are artists able to clear the 
>smokescreens? Where do art, advertising and activism begin and end, and what 
>are their ‘relational aesthetics’?
>
>Some artists in the Communications Department appear seduced by the 
>brilliance and sophistication of the most innovative brands, leaving viewers 
>to decide for themselves  whether their appropriations and alliances are a 
>form of political critique, or deconstruction of what are conventionally 
>regarded as the differences between art and advertising. In the trajectory 
>running from Jeff Koons to Art Club 2000 to Bernadette Corporation and Carey 
>Young, the distinctions between the conceptual practices of artists and 
>those of corporate image-makers seem entirely eroded, suggesting that the 
>notion of the avant-garde is now coporately owned. The Communications 
>Department features Koons’s late 80s Art Magazines Ads, AC2K’s mid 90s 
>fashion shoots (Gap  etc), and Bernadette’s on-going fashion magazine ‘Made 
>in the USA’.
>
>Young creates a new work for the show - a 'visioning workshop' held between 
>a leading business strategist and the gallery directorship, with the aim of 
>imagining new market possibilities for the gallery by questioning existing 
>assumptions about art and the artist. The work, which will be for sale 
>during the show, will exist in the gallery as the videoed documentation and 
>detritus of the meeting.
>
>®™ark are a legally constituted corporation acting as an umbrella company on 
>the Internet for anti-corporate activists, matching ‘culture jamming’ 
>proposals with funders and implementors. Stanley Donwood and Tchock have 
>turned EMI’s exhaustive marketing report on the success or otherwise of 
>their promotional artwork for Radiohead into embossed gallery wallpaper. 
>Martha Rosler’s film ‘Chile on the road to NAFTA’ adopts the aesthetics of 
>the road movie to ask what is free about international free trade alliances. 
>Alex Veness* shows paintings commissioned from  commercial artists working 
>in Export Processing Zones in China of photographs of workers performing 
>menial tasks on the yachts and estates of the super affluent in Antigua.
>
>The Medea group plot the covert web of corporate and political  alliances 
>determining the flow of global capital (and, in addition, the art world’s 
>own networks), on promotional display panels. Imprint 93’s ready-made, an 
>extraordinary VIP list for ‘Die Young Stay Pretty’ at the ICA, is a sign of 
>how the corporate ethos is beginning to be applied to the marketing of art 
>in public venues - gone are the days of press officers; the phenomenon of 
>Communications Departments in galleries and museums implies that art itself 
>doesn’t communicate, or that institutions would rather it didn’t.
>
>The ubiquity and persuasiveness of brands, and the question of what space is 
>left for the artist, are perhaps most concisely considered by two of the 
>least socio-political works in the Department: Richard Hawkins’s collage of 
>Marky Mark at pelvic level wearing Calvin Kleins surrounded by a 19th 
>century print of a romantic seascape; and a small floor sculpture consisting 
>of the white underwear elastics of every one of Gareth Jones’s Calvin 
>Kleins. These physically modest works suggest new formal / private / 
>symbolic identities for this powerful brand that weren’t in the advertiser’s 
>script.

>IMMEDIATE RELEASE
>
>
>ACA MEDIA ARTS PLAZA IN TOKYO ANNOUNCES LARGE-SCALE RETROSPECTIVE OF NET
>ART WORKS CREATED BY AMERICAN INTERNET ARTIST MARK AMERIKA
>
>BOULDER, Colorado, July 2, 2001 -- Digital artist, novelist and web
>publisher Mark Amerika, Founding Director of the Alt-X Online Network,
>will have his first Japanese retrospective at the ACA Media Arts Plaza in
>Tokyo, Japan. "Avant-Pop: The Stories of Mark Amerika" showcases much of
>the early work Amerika pioneered during the dot.com Nineties. The
>exhibition will launch on July 1, 2001 and run through September 10, 2001.
>
>Amerika, who was recently named a "Time Magazine 100 Innovator" as part of
>their continuing series of features on the most influential artists,
>scientists, entertainers and philosophers into the 21st century, is the
>creator or principial investigator of many Internet art projects including
>GRAMMATRON, PHON:E:ME, HOLO-X, ALT-X, and the recent How To Be An Internet
>Artist, all of which will be featured in the "Avant-Pop" exhibition in
>Tokyo. A complete catalogue of essays and interviews with Amerika will
>appear online in both English and Japanese translation.
>
>According to Amerika, "The notion of an Avant-Pop cultural practice
>evolved from my early work with artists, writers and critics in both
>America and Japan, so it's only fitting that my first major show in Tokyo
>would reflect this transnational cultural phenomenon and its effect on
>both digital art and literature."
>
>As part of the "Avant-Pop" exhibition, Amerika will be invited to Tokyo by
>the Graphic Arts Society of Japan where he will present his work to the
>general public.
>
>Tracing Amerika's rapid emergence into the contemporary art world, web
>mavens, art critics, historians and web surfers the world over have seen
>his multi-media narratives work their way into various art and writing
>scenes while being distributed through a wide array of formats including
>hypertext, 3-D VRML environments, mp3 concept albums, ebooks, Palm Pilots,
>live digital dramaturgy, and highly-acclaimed published novels.
>
>His GRAMMATRON project (http://www.grammatron.com) was developed while he
>was a Creative Writing Fellow and Lecturer on Network Publishing and
>Hypertext at Brown University. Released in June 1997, it is one of the
>most widely accessed art sites on the World Wide Web and in 2000 was one
>of the first works of Internet art to ever be selected for the prestigious
>Whitney Biennial of American Art.
>
>Amerika was recently appointed to the Fine Arts faculty at the University
>of Colorado at Boulder where he has been developing a cutting-edge Digital
>Art curriculum. He is presently producing a new cross-media narrative
>project, FILMTEXT, that will be a hybridized online/offline "story
>experience" created as a net art site, a museum installation, a multimedia
>ebook, and a series of live performances. One version of FILMTEXT will
>appear in another upcoming retrospective of his work at the ICA in London
>later this year.
>
>The "Avant-Pop: The Stories of Mark Amerika" exhibition will be available
>to the public at http://plaza.bunka.go.jp/amerika.html, as of July 1st, and is
>sponsored by the Computer Graphics Society of Japan and the Agency for
>Cultural Affairs in Japan.
>
>The show is being curated by noted Net Art curator You Minowa.

>Introduction:
>It's an online community providing useful communication tools.
>
>It's a project that runs really close to the heart of what network 23
>org
>was created to try to do. A fully interactive communication channel.
>Communication should be able to create a response in the person
>receiving
>it - and when that happens, it's great if they can come right back with
>their own message. So this is exactly what Message and discussion boards
>do.
>But this project takes the concept into something that is presented in a
>bit
>of a nicer way. They've organised a Festival using this system and it
>really
>seems to work pretty well! The way it's written makes it really
>accessible
>to others as well.
>
>
>The main project is <http://www.distributonomy.org> It's a completely
>volunteer run and maintained and provides mailing lists, webspace, and
>interactive forums for those interested and involved with alternative
>culture. The most exciting part of distributonomy.org, in my opinion are
>
>the wikis, which are collections perl-driven cgi pages which can be
>world
>edited, so that ANYONE reading a page on a wiki can add to it or change
>content or make new pages. (Now how's that for an autonomous website?)
>
>There are two wikis:
>
>The Festival Wiki--
><http://festival.distirbutonomy.org>
>
>The Mission Statement Wiki (which would be of more interest and
>importance
>to n23 folks, as the festival wiki was rather specific to a particular
>purpose of organization)
>
><http://www.distributonomy.org/gathering/january/statementwiki>
>
>I really think wikis are a radical new way to autonomize the web. They
>are
>very new developments (started up only a couple years ago) but have been
>
>mostly used in technology and coding related fields. I think it's time
>n23
>learned how autonomous they can be.
