Grace Lands
guest Federico Baronello
Candy factory pleased to announce that we're becoming an institution for
mentally handicapped people for you at Yokohama triennial
inviting with new guest collaborator Federico Baronello from this weekend.
If you are one of them, we welcome you.
maybe you would like to see how they looks like in Italy even just facing
with projection.
You can imagine how can we live in a beautiful institution in Sicily.
We are reporting couple of grace lands from there for this tourism art
festival .
And we also have good Italian design furniture images for you.
" as personal failures can be reflected when Swedish chair chrome furniture
do not shine anymore attacked by the passing time,
revolutionary design body for Italians innovative radio and TV set
do not work anymore as transistors had been substituted by microchips,
and ABS colorful plastic materials are preferred by a warm touch of new-age
exotic woods.
utopian everyday practice of 60/70s designed is dead ready to relive as a
zombie for emancipated social approach theories in sanatorium ruled by
doctors filled by never last hopeful avant-garde theories while our bodies
attacked by cancers can enjoy the last sip of well chilled France champagne
served by gentle nursery employers."............Federico Baronello
Like he says even these are now bit rotten same like some rust-eaten minimal
art or cracked piece of conceptual art in some museum , but so would be nice
you will have stereotyped aura effect for your brand new meditation.
Anyway of course no such differences between art festival and sanitarium
organized by almost same function.
So just let's check which is better.
Or just are you believing you are the doctor?
or kind of social worker just like curators or artists nowadays ?
Are you sure?
If so send your message to comfort spectators, we will serve it under our
gallows pavilion.

Subject: fAf Sept: fineArt forum announces ISEA collaboration
Sincere apologies for cross posting
- -----------------------------------------------
The Inter-Society for Electronic Arts (ISEA) and fineArt forum (fAf) are
collaborating to share information and audiences. Commencing with the
current issue of fAf, all ISEA members will receive the electronic
magazine's e-digest.
Editor-in-Chief Nisar Keshvani described the partnership as 'landmark'.
"This sharing of resources and information landmarks a partnership with one
of the world's most established electronic arts organisations," he said.
Founded in the Netherlands in 1990, ISEA is an international non-profit
member organization dedicated to promoting and developing the electronic
arts. We are committed to the interdisciplinary and cross-cultural
communication/co-operation between the arts and the fields of technology,
science, education, and industry.
Chair of the ISEA Board, Nina Czegledy shared Keshvani's sentiments,
stating that "ISEA is pleased to announce our close collaboration with fAf,
the internet's longest running electronic arts magazine."
In fAf September:
:: McKenzie Wark's 'Index to This Fabulous World' discusses these
vectorialist times
:: Mark Beam's 'The Art of Implication' considers non-verbal meanings
inspired by work in online communities
:: In 'Historic Collaboration', Garry Bolles delivers insights into
technological development
:: Anne Walton's 'Word's out on: Woomera' examines Australia's refusal to
welcome refugees
:: Reviews of aseanARToday, Conexion Remota, Stephen Barron and Game
Studies as well as the latest news, opportunities, events and announcements.
fAf, which provides up-to-date, informative and timely information to the
global art and technology community, can also assist artists in achieving
local and global exposure via their fAf galleries and global connections.

CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT
FM 1 NEW DEFINITIONS: VALUE COMMUNITY SPACE
November 4-6, Heerlen/Maastricht, The Netherlands
http://www.infonomics.nl/newdefinitions/
---------------------------------------
Please distribute!
The impact on society of the technologies of "digitisation" has transcended
the limits of any single discipline. It is universal and ubiquitous,
affecting everything. But how does this digitisation affect our basic
concepts about society - such as value, community, law, space?
This conference will bring together the world's leading thinkers and doers
in various fields - from anthropology to law, economics to information
technology - to ask: What, if anything, is new about the way we redefine
our understanding of these concepts?
Topics covered include:
- ----------------------
- - notions of value, non-monetary economic activity,
- - measurement without prices, free software
- - the meaning of money, electronic currencies
- - communities, social networks
- - reputation, trust and identity
- - formal and informal law, dissappearing borders and Internet jurisdiction
- - space and navigation
- - political space, government, new media and freedom
- - geographical space, access, impact and inequality
Format and speakers
- -------------------
This conference is uniquely designed to contrast opinions from different
disciplines in sessions linked by common themes: Value, Community, Space. A
special Crosstalk session each day brings together participants from the
different themes in debate, to elicit a broader understanding of the issues
that face us.
The conference emerges from First Monday's reputation as a source of
quality ideas and research on digitisation and society. Beginning with
keynote presentations from two of First Monday's well-known editorial board
members: Esther Dyson and Anthony Rutkowski, this conference draws on First
Monday's long list of authors, some of the foremost thinkers in their
fields. Confirmed speakers include
Wilfred Dolfsma, International Institute of Infonomics
Paul Duguid, Xerox Palo Alto Research Center
Kasper Edwards, Technical University Denmark
Andreas Harsono, Institute for Studies of Freeflow of Information, Jakarta
Leo van Hove, Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Bernardo Huberman, Hewlett-Packard Sand Hill Labs
Bernt Hugenholtz, Institute for Information Law, Amsterdam University
Christopher Kelty, Rice University, Houston
Bonnie Nardi, Agilent Technologies Inc
Bruce Perens, Open Source evangelist, Hewlett-Packard,
David Post, Temple University School of Law
Howard Rheingold, author, "The Virtual Community"
Richard Rogers, University of Amsterdam
Richard Wiggins, Michigan State University
Who should attend
- -----------------
This conference will offer insights into issues that are critical to
economic, social and technological development in Europe as well as
worldwide. It will appeal to everyone concerned with the emerging
understanding of digitization and its impact on society, policy and
business. We expect as participants academics, corporate officers,
government policy makers, thinkers and activists from around the world.
Registration
- ------------
Online registration and hotel reservation forms, as well as the conference
programme are available at http://www.infonomics.nl/newdefinitions/
The conference is jointly organised by First Monday - the peer reviewed
journal of the Internet (www.firstmonday.org) and the International
Institute of Infonomics (www.infonomics.nl). For more information and

Subject: Saul Williams and Paul D. Miller at The Atlantic Center for the Arts
Hey folks, I hope this letter finds youwell. I'm now in Florida (if
anyone is in the vicinity, feel free to give a shout out to any of
the events we've got going...).
I'm doing a "Master Artist" residency at the Atlantic Center for the
Arts with Saul Williams, and Carrie Mae Weems. Basically we choose
six six students each - "associate artists" - and just flow
creatively for three weeks in a beautiful area of Florida called New
Smyrna Beach about an hour out of Orlanda (yep, near the Kennedy
Space Center, and Universal Film Studios, but far far far more
chilled out than those spots - we're right off the ocean...). So it's
a mellow cool out situation with art being made. Me and Saul are
going to post some of our thoughts on contemporary culture to the
afrofuturist list once a day, and if I can get Carrie to get more
digital, her and her students might post a little bit as well. Me and
Saul might post some poems with beats/tracks as Mp3 files for the
list as well. Other future participants will include Janine Antoni
(the oh so very young recipient of the MacArthur "genius award" a
little while ago), and Ishmael Reed.
and for an article describing our endeavors, check the Orlando Weekly:
http://www.orlandoweekly.com/music/feature/index.asp?f=315
and for more info check the website:
http://www.atlanticcenterforthearts.org
and a schedule of our events:
http://www.atlanticcenterforthearts.org/comm_prog/calendar/cal_fs.htm
....we're doing a special screening of Slam (a movie that I did the
score for...) slightly remixed... and of course, me and Saul have our
respective new albums coming out... his, entitled "Amythest Rockstar"
(produced by Rick Rubin) and mine "Under the Influence" (featuring
tracks by Moby, Future Sound of London, Talvin Singh, Ryuichi
Sakamoto, Sonic Youth, Anti-Pop Consortium, Beth Coleman a.k.a. Dj
Singe and MC Verb of NYC's multi-media party, Soundlab... and many
others) will be out by the end of the month. We're having a big
record release party in NYC in a little while...
If you're into arts and digital media residencies, let me know... I
do this alot. Here's the blurb:
Apply to work with world-renowned master
artists. If selected, you receive housing, weekday meals, and award-winning
studio space in New Smyrna Beach, Florida

Person of the Month for SEPT 2001 : Scott Sonna Snibbe.
His piece at www.biennale.net is minimal and deep. A duck in a bottle.
How do you take the duck out without destroying the bottle ?
You cannot and even worse, when you try, you"ll destroy the duck first.
Philosophical and plain. Totally realistic and the same time abstract. High level.
It also delivers a sinister message under the circumstances...

White Collar presents an array of aesthetic positions touching on aspects of
the white collar state of mind, with artists drawing on elements of its
interior and exterior environments and design, social rituals, economic
preoccupations and operational systems as they examine and subvert the
visual and formal languages of urban professionals by misapplying,
inverting, falsely representing, forensically capturing, inventing and
extrapolating from the detritus of the white collar world.
Coining the term 'white collar' in the early 1950s, the American sociologist
C. Wright Mills provided a trope for an emerging 20th century middle class
keeping its hands clean as it toiled behind desks in the banal working
environments of the industrialised world. In their bid for gradual ascension
up the corporate ladder, the white collar workforce constituted a rank, a
milieux, a kind of social orbit - but the socio-economic fruits of
conforming to the daily routines and regulated climates of the office
brought with them a disaffected and precarious psychological life. Half a
century later the white collar world is out of orbit - the faceless goals of
multinationalism, the collapse of the new economy, the euphemistic ambience
of the pink slip party and the persistent uncertainties of globalisation
conflate to leave today's cell-phone-toting generation pondering the
feasibility of a sure footing on the slippery slopes of the white collar
pyramid.
The exhibition foregrounds the ambivalence of contemporary artists as they
respond to the contemporary corporate values, systems, hierarchies and
aesthetics by which they are surrounded.
