Call for contributions
http://subsol.c3.hu
Recent transformations in the production and
distribution of culture have resulted in a withering
of control. In this atmosphere, the creation of
autonomous cultural spaces and media has become
necessary for the survival of art … and the art of
survival. This need is even more profoundly felt in
post-socialist countries, where decades of
bureaucratic centralization have forestalled the
development of self-management. But the "occupation"
of the spaces of culture has not been an unproblematic
chapter of history--often it has produced expulsions,
closed bureaucracies, and ideological dogmatism.
Although the ghosts of the past still haunt the
imagination of the living, today, increasingly, we
bear witness to new forms of association that are no
longer properly called groups. Nameless, they exist on
the borders of disappearance, without the need for
manifestoes, without the desire for programs, without
the exigency of five-year plans.
SUBSOL invites contributions from sometime artists,
backyard activists, media practitioners, and the
organizers of autonomous spaces. As a matter of
principle all contributions are from those involved at
the point of production. The threads of the next issue
will be:
(1) Autonomous Spaces: New media labs and social
centers. Reflections on group identity, territory, and
mobility are also welcome. A partial list of
contributors includes: Autonomous Culture Factory
(Croatia), bootlab (Germany), Buryzone (Slovakia), CAA
(Romania), Cyberpipe (Slovenia), Desk.org
(Netherlands), D.I.N.A. (Italy), FiftyFifty (Spain),
InterSpace (Bulgaria), Kisvarso (Hungary), K2
(Latvia), Kuda (Yugoslavia), Metelkova (Slovenia),
net.culture center mama (Croatia), NoDimension (Czech
Republic), Sarai (India), Tranzit (Romania),
V2_Institute for Unstable Media (Netherlands), WRO
(Poland).
(2) Sovereign Media: Small scale but globally
dispersed media with no reason beyond their own
existence and no orientation towards profit.
Contributors: Candida TV (Italy), Communication Front
(Bulgaria), Institutio Media (Lithuania), Katastro.fi
(Finland), Tetsuo Kogawa (Japan), Geert Lovink &
Joanne Richardson (Australia/Croatia), Mikro
(Germany), Net Institute & Rekombinant (Italy), Re-lab
(Latvia), r a d i o q u a l i a (New Zealand), Thing
(US).
(3) Microcosms of Future Worlds. New social movements,
the ethics of zero work, free software as the
withering away of labor based on exchange value?
Contributors: Kadian Antal (Romania), Alex Galloway
(US), Stefan Merten, Oekonux (Germany), Kenta Ohji,
New Associationist Movement (Japan), LETS (Canada),
Makrolab (Slovenia), Sciatto (Italy), Snafu (Italy),
Trabajo Zero (Spain).
SUBSOL has changed its coordinates and collaborations
as it moved from Bucharest, to Budapest, to Zagreb. It
is a temporary medium, existing only for one year,
opening a meeting space for those whose ideas and work
may be very close, but who might otherwise remain
ignorant about each other. Others can continue the
project, under another name. The manifest destiny of
any group is its disappearance. And the best
propagation of an idea is achieved through its
perpetual self-destruction.

Subject: Call4papers-Finland
I am organizing a session at the Crossroads in Cultural Studies
conference June 29-July 2 in Tampere, Finland. I invite both
grad students and faculty to submit papers; the session
listing is posted below. If you wish to submit to the session, email
a 150-word abstracts of your paper, or full papers to me; papers are
due by Jan. 31. For more information about the conference, see the
Crossroads web site at www.crossroads2002.com.
I see this within the context of working towards or discussing the
nature of a 'critical Internet Studies' per the round table talk at the
conference in Minneapolis.
- --------------------
Doing Cultural Studies in Cyberspace
Considerations of communication technologies in modern cultures have been
instrumental in rise and development of Cultural Studies. Thus far,
however, the scholarly response within Cultural Studies to analyzing
Internet technologies has not been as strong or systematic as with (for
example) television. Although a great deal of Internet- focused research
has been multidisciplinary, a Cultural Studies approach has really not
been achieved despite the fact that a recent wave of critical work aimed
at demystifying the role of capitalism in controlling innovation,
distribution, and discourse in regards to new media technologies can
perhaps be seen as a beginning. What does Cultural Studies have to say
(and to do) regarding the growing presence of Internet technologies in
the everyday lives of many people in communities around the world? Papers
that explore the contextualities and contingencies of Internet use and
those that explore the role of Cultural Studies in rearticulating
'cyberculture studies' or 'cyberspace' in general are invited for
participation in this panel.

The World Wide Web is an enormous publishing system, every user can publish
texts and documents world-wide. This communication space, where information
is used collectively, is based on the concept of hypertext, the networked
reading and writing of texts, the effort of organizing content
associatively.
The consequences are fundamental changes compared to traditional text
production and distribution. Multiple authoring, globalization and
individualism, new sales strategies of publishing houses, book stores,
authors and artists - all this results in new possibilities as well as risks
for literary production outside the market-driven best-seller charts.

The Laws of the Web
Patterns in the Ecology of Information
Bernardo A. Huberman
Despite its haphazard growth, the Web hides powerful underlying
regularities--from the organization of its links to the patterns found in
its use by millions of users. Many of these regularities have been
predicted on the basis of theoretical models based on a field of
physics--statistical mechanics--that few would have thought applicable to
the social domain.
In this book Bernardo Huberman explains in accessible language the laws of
the Web. One of the foremost researchers in the field, Huberman has
established, for example, that the surfing patterns of individuals are
describable by a precise law. Such findings can lead to more efficient Web
design and use. They also shed light on social mechanisms whose
significance goes beyond the Web. In this sense, the Web is a gigantic
informational ecosystem that can be used to quantify and test explanations
of human behavior and social interaction.
Bernardo A. Huberman is an HP Fellow at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories in
Palo Alto, California.

The editors of the Amateur Computerist are planning an issue for Spring
2002 in memory of Michael Hauben. We plan to include tributes and memorial
pieces about Michael and his work. We welcome contributions from people
who knew Michael or who know his work. In addition work on the theme of
netizens is invited.
Michael is perhaps best known for his popularization of netizens. In
1993 he wrote:
"Welcome to the 21st century. You are a Netizen, or a Net
Citizen, and you exist as a citizen of the world thanks to
the global connectivity that the Net makes possible. You
consider everyone as your compatriot. You physically live in
one country but you are in contact with much of the world
via the global computer network.
"The situation I describe is only a prediction of the future,
but a large part of the necessary infrastructure currently
exists...Every day more computers attach to the existing network
and every new computer adds to the user base -- at least twenty
five million people are interconnected today..."
"We are seeing a revitalization of society. The frameworks are
being redesigned from the bottom up. A new more democratic world
is becoming possible."
Michael's original webpage is still accessible at:
http://www.columbia.edu/~hauben/
Please send inquiries or submissions to:
wrohler@mediaone.net or jrh@ais.org
The deadline for submissions is January 7, 2002.
For the Amateur Computerist,
Jay Hauben

Apologies for cross postings and duplication
Performance Research
Vol.7 No.3 (Autumn 2002)
'On Fluxus'
Call for Contributions
'On Fluxus' will be Volume 7, Issue 3 of 'Performance Research' and will
be jointly edited by Ric Allsopp with guest editors Ken Friedman and Owen
Smith.
Deadlines are as follows:
Proposals: December 15th 2001
Finalised Copy: February 15th 2002
Publication Date: September 2002
'On Fluxus ' will be the third issue of a volume on 'Textualities: scores,
documents and archives' (PR, Vol.7, Nos 1-4, 2002) which considers the
changing nature of performance texts and relations between writing,
textuality and performance in four related issues: On Editing,
Translations, On Fluxus and On Archives and Archiving.
'Fluxus is what Fluxus does -- but no one knows whodunit'. Emmett Williams
'Fluxus is not a moment in history, or an art movement. Fluxus is a way of
doing things, a tradition, and a way of life and death'. Dick Higgins
To mark the fortieth anniversary of the first Fluxus festival in Wiesbaden,
Germany, and the thirtieth anniversary of Fluxshoe which toured England
with a series of performances, concerts, and exhibitions (1972-3), the
'On Fluxus' issue will continue the volume theme of 'textualities, scores
and documents' and focus on the relationship of writing and textuality to
Fluxus. Fluxus was an international community of artists, architects,
designers, and composers described as 'the most radical and experimental
art movement of the 1960s'. As a laboratory of experimental art
characterized by George Maciunas's notion of the 'learning machine',
Fluxus was the first locus of intermedia, concept art, events, and video,
and a central influence on performance art, arte povera, and mail art.
The Fluxus research program has been characterized by twelve ideas:
globalism, the unity of art and
life, intermedia, experimentalism, chance, playfulness, simplicity,
implicativeness, exemplativism, specificity, presence in time and
musicality. These ideas describe the qualities and issues that characterize
the
work of Fluxus. Each describes a 'way of doing things'. Together, these
twelve ideas form a picture of what Fluxus is and does. The implications of
these ideas have been interesting and occasionally startling. Fluxus
has been a complex system of practices and relationships. As a forum of
philosophical and artistic practice,
Fluxus developed and demonstrated ideas that would later be seen in such
frameworks as multimedia, telecommunications, hypertext, industrial design,
urban planning, architecture, publishing, philosophy, even management
theory.
The editors welcome contributions on Fluxus and on historical and
geographical activities centered on Fluxshoe, together with considerations
of how it subsequently influenced British art, as well as proposals and
complete papers on any topic or theme relevant to Fluxus, the Fluxus
artists and composers, or their
work. A partial list of Fluxus artists and composers includes: Ay-O, Joseph
Beuys, George Brecht, Phil Corner, Robert Filliou, Ken Friedman, Al Hansen,
Geoffrey Hendricks, Dick Higgins, Bengt af Klintberg, Milan
Knizak, Alison Knowles, Arthur Koepcke, Shigeko Kubota, George Maciunas,
Jackson Mac Low, Larry Miller, Yoko Ono, Nam June Paik, Takako Saito, Mieko
Shiomi, Ben Vautier, Wolf Vostell, Yoshimasa Wada, Robert Watts, Emmett
Williams, and La Monte Young.
Performance Research is interested in proposals for visual and textual
work that makes use of the resources of the page, and in work that may use
several versions of a text. We are interested in scores and other
performance documents, interviews, discussions, proposals for review essays
of performance, digital, time-based work and books, and in collaborations
between artists and critics.
This issue will edited by Ric Allsopp, one of Performance Research's three
editors; Ken Friedman, an active participant in Fluxus, as an artist since
1966, as director of Fluxus West for a decade, and as editor of The Fluxus
Reader (1997); and Owen Smith, an art historian and curator specializing
in intermedia and multimedia art forms, and author of Fluxus: History of an
Attitude (1998).
We actively welcome submissions on any area of performance research,
practice and scholarship. Proposals and articles will be accepted on hard
copy, disk or by e-mail attachment (MS Word). Please DO NOT send images by
email attachment without prior agreement.
