it's..
A DORKBOT IN LONDON III
this Wednesday, the 6th February starting at 7pm.
please arrive on time-ish, the talks start pretty soon after 7.
http://dorkbot.org
WHAT IS DORKBOT
people doing strange things with electricity. a kind of monthly
meeting of people creating or with an interest in electronic art.
admission is free, open to all and there is no affiliation or funding.
WHERE IS DORKBOTLONDON (* VENUE CHANGE *)
state51, rhoda street, off the top of brick lane, london e2
map (arrow marks the spot):
http://www.streetmap.co.uk/streetmap.dll?G2M?X=533828&Y=182470&A=Y&Z=1
state51 is a factory surrounded by a metal fence and has 'state51' in
big letters on the gate.
this is just a temporary venue change - check the venue each month!
WHAT WILL HAPPEN
this month, three people will give short(ish) talks to an audience of
about 40-50 people, showing some cool things or ideas they realised
using electricity.
Rolf Gehlhaar - chaos / antichaos : gestures, sounds & images
nullpointer - Pixel-Map p
Simon Wistow - games and generative music
there are fewer talks than last time, not because we don't have enough
people (the following, wed. march 13th dorkbot is already booked up with
excellent speakers), but because we thought we'd experiment with leaving
more time for ad-hoc demonstrations and general chatter and drinking.
this is based on much appreciated feedback, keep it coming!
the original dorkbot, dorkbotnyc will also meet at 7pm their time -
check the website for more info: http://dorkbot.org/
WHERE WAS THE JANUARY DORKBOTLONDON
we skipped a month due to predicted tiredness, pain and general
absence following the new year.

>>Donnerstag 7.2. pop hoch n kuratiert von Antje Weitzel und Mirjam Wenzel
>>Wiederholung: Sonntag, den 17.2.2002
Aus einer anderen Richtung nähern sich dem Phänomen Musikclip Antje Weitzel
und Mirjam Wenzel:
"Der von verschiedenen Seiten und Interessengruppen unterschiedlichst
besetzte Dummy-Begriff Pop bildet einen losen Zusammenhang zwischen den
präsentierten Videoarbeiten, in denen Rollenmodelle und
Identifikationsschablonen nachgezeichnet werden. Dabei spielen die Arbeiten
weniger auf musikalischer als auf visueller Ebene mit dem genrespezifischen
Repertoire, in dessen Zentrum neben werbewirksamer Selbstinszenierung,
Lifestyle-Design und Trendthemen stehen. Die Videos bedienen sich dieser
Szenarien, Attitudes und Rituale, brechen sie jedoch ironisch-humorvoll in
der überzeichneten stereotypen Inszenierung. Gleichzeitig werden in dieser
Brechung nicht nur der prototypische Fundus an Gesten, Posen und Abläufen
kommerzieller Musikclips kommentiert, sondern auch das Pop-Business
allgemein."
Das Programm stellt künstlerische Videos neben Musikclips und überschreitet
die Grenzen zwischen den verschiedenen Bereichen und Kontexten, in denen
gegenwärtig Musikvideos produziert und rezipiert werden. Es umfaßt Arbeiten
von Rosa Barba / mouse on mars, dare art.creative lab / little computer
people, Falk Büttner / figurine, Tobias Bernstrup, Peaches, Undine Goldberg,
Deborah Schamoni / chicks on speed, Oliver Husain, Michael Klöfkorn / Jan
Delay / commercial breakup, Pink Productions, Jürgen Lege / Jereon Tel, Eve
Hurforth, Phillip Menzel und wurde von Antje Weitzel und Mirjam Wenzel
zusammengestellt.
>>Samstag, 9.2. Berlin Clubvideo Teil 2 von visomat.inc
Schon der erste Teil der Berlin-Clubvideo-Compilation hat uns allen Freude
bereitet: Ein guter Überblick über die Stars der Berliner VJ-Szene. Nun,
allen Gerüchten zum Trotz, Teil 2 bei club transmediale. Böse Zungen meinen,
es sei ja diesmal nur die zweite Garde, aber wir sagen, es ist die andere
Seite des Sahnehäubchens der Berliner VJs: Tappo Kontakt, Pfadfinderei,
Frame Farmers, Codec und andere
>>Mittwoch, den 13.2. Ambient Line 02
Nach Ambient Line 01 hier das zweite Videoscreeningprogramm zum Thema Club
der transmediale 02. Die Beweisführung, daß der Club zu einem eigenständigem
Ort digitaler Kunst geworden ist. Mit Arbeiten von: Maria Gusberti.notdef,
Norbert Pfaffenbichler, ReMi, Bas van Koolwijk etc.
>>Donnerstag, den 14.2. YUV Screeningprogramm
Frau Weitzel und Frau Wenzel zeigen uns nicht nur pop hoch n, sondern
auch folgendes:
"Das Kürzel YUV bezeichnet die Licht- und Farbwerte eines Videobildes und
beschreibt dessen Aufbau. Die unter diesem Kürzel präsentierten
Konzeptvideos unternehmen eine vergleichbare Dekonstruktion: sie reduzieren
das visuelle Arsenal auf soundgesteuerte Anordnungen von Farbflächen und
Linien und unterstreichen den non-figurativen Charakter von elektronischer
Musik. Im Unterschied zu Musikvideos, in denen die Performance von Bands,
Stars und Menschenkörpern bildhaft angereichert werden, stellen sich die
präsentierten Videos vor allem als Visualisierung eines konzeptionellen
Textes dar. Eines Textes, der von menschenleeren Stadtlandschaften,
audiovisuellen Empfangsstörungen, geometrischen Formkompositionen wie
digitalen Codes erzählt und sich im Rhythmus von Beat und Schnitt beständig
neu strukturiert. Die von diesem Text gespeisten Videoarbeiten beschreiben
ein sowohl analog als auch digital generiertes Feld, das sich zwischen
avantgardistischem (Trick-)Film der zwanziger Jahre und gegenwärtiger
VJ-Culture aufspannt und somit eine visuelle Archäologie von elektronischer
Musik ermöglicht.."
Das Screening präsentiert Arbeiten von Phillip Geist / tied and tickled trio
/ Kpt. Michi.Gan, Salome Machidze (Goslab) / Nikakoi, Oliver Hardt & Sunah
Choi / Albrecht Kunze, Rosa Barba / mouse on mars, HC Gilje, Lillevän /
Rechenzentrum / Georg Zeitblom, Thomas Scheffer, Pietro Sanguineti / Markus
Schneider, Sebastian Kutscher / Antonelli Electric, pReview / Georg
Zeitblom, Tappo Kontakt / Phako, Oliver Hardt / lamé gold, Andreas
Schimanski und anderen. Es wurde von Antje Weitzel und Mirjam Wenzel
zusammengestellt

Subject: Free Radio Linux - launching 03.02.02
FREE RADIO LINUX ON:
r a d i o q u a l i a
((o))
http://www.radioqualia.net/freeradiolinux
03.02.02 -> 2003
0000 [ GMT ]
0100 [ Central European Time ]
1900 [ US Eastern Standard Time - 02.02.02 ]
0530 [ Indian Standard Time ]
1100 [ Australian Eastern Summer Time ]
1300 [ New Zealand Time ]
The time is GMT 20:02, 02.02.02.
In 4 hours time it will be February 3, and the fourth anniversary of the
day the Open Source Initiative <http://www.opensource.org/> coined the term
'open source' as a label for freely published source code
<http://www.opensource.org/docs/history.html>.
To mark this occasion, r a d i o q u a l i a are launching the first
net.radio distribution of the world's most popular open source software -
the operating system, Linux.
Free Radio Linux is an online and on-air radio station. The sound
transmission is a computerised reading of the entire source code used to
create the Linux Kernel, the basis of all distributions of Linux.
Each line of code is read by an automated computer voice - a speech.bot
utility built by r a d i o q u a l i a. The speech.bot's output is encoded
into an audio stream, using the open source codec, Ogg Vorbis
<http://www.vorbis.com>, and sent out live on the internet. FM, AM and
Shortwave radio stations from around the world will also relay the audio
stream on various occasions.
The Linux kernel contains 4,141,432 millions lines of code. Reading the
entire kernel will take an estimated 14253.43 hours, or 593.89 days.
Listeners can track the progress of Free Radio Linux by listening to the
audio stream, or checking the text-based progress field in the ./listen
section of the website <http://www.radioqualia.net/freeradiolinux>
./ BACKGROUND : LINUX AND OPEN SOURCE
Since Finnish programmer Linus Torvalds
<http://www.cs.Helsinki.FI/u/torvalds/> started development of the
operating system, Linux in 1991, the collaborative model of software
development has reached profound new heights. Consisting of millions of
lines of source code, Linux has been mutated, improved and sent spiraling
off into new directions by literally thousands of programmers from all
around the world. This is because Torvalds promoted a simple approach to
the development of Linux: he made the code available for users of the
operating system to read, view and alter. Sharing their ideas on the
software and potential improvements was a core part of Torvalds' ethic.
Due to the extraordinary success of Linux, the ethic of code sharing has
reached new heights of popularity. Code sharing is no longer a process
specific to computer science, rather it has become an ideology embraced by
business, the computer using public, and a multitude of cultural, artistic
and academic sectors. When Linux won one of electronic art's most
prestigious prizes, the Prix Ars Electronica
<http://prixars.aec.at/history/net/1999/E99net_01.htm> for .net excellence
in 1999, Open Source completed its journey from a prosaic functional
process to a phenomenon verging on art.
./ FREE RADIO MEETS FREE SOFTWARE
In the hierarchy of media, radio reigns. There are more computers than
modems, more phones than computers, and more radios than phones. Radio is
the closest we have to an egalitarian method of information distribution.
Free Radio Linux advocates that radio is the best method for distributing
the world's most popular free software.
Free Radio Linux is therefore be a networked broadcast system, transmitting
on ether-net via open source audio codec, Ogg Vorbis and relayed on AM,
Shortwave and FM frequencies, by a collection of ham radio amateurs and
radio professionals.
Free Radio Linux also continues the tradition of FM 'code stations' of the
early-mid eighties. These stations were pirate broadcasters who distributed
bootleg software programmes via radio transmitters, allowing early hackers
with home computers, such as Sinclair ZX80-81s, Commodore 64s, and Acorns,
to demodulate the signal through a modem and run the code. The modern day
equivalent, Free Radio Linux, similarly enables anyone with notepad to
transcribe the code and utilise it at his or her convenience.
./ TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
To listen to Free Radio Linux online, users must have:
- - a computer
- - an internet connection
- - an MP3 Player
- - the Ogg Vorbis codec
MP3 players and the Ogg Vorbis codec can be downloaded from the ./listen
section of the Free Radio Linux website:
<http://www.radioqualia.net/freeradiolinux>
Ogg Vorbis is compatible with Linux, Windows and Max OSX operating systems.
- --------------> Ogg Vorbis + Icecast
Free Radio Linux utilises Ogg Vorbis because it is one of the only open
source streaming audio codecs available. Whereas, MP3 is a patented
technology (owned by Fraunhofer IIS-A <http://www.iis.fhg.de/>, Thomson,
and others ) Ogg Vorbis is a free, open, and unpatented.
Encoding is enabled using the free Oddsock DSP plugin for Winamp. This
encoder converts the live audio input from the speech.bot into a streaming
Ogg Vorbis file. This file is then sent as a 'continuous stream' to the
server.
Free Radio Linux is served via a Icecast2 <http://www.icecast.org/> server
for Unix, located at Montevideo <http://www.montevideo.nl/> in Amsterdam.
This server is part of the Open Source Streaming Alliance
<http://www.location1.org/ossa/ossa.html>.
- --------------> Speech.bot
Free Radio Linux is enabled by a speech.bot, which opens each individual
page of the Linux kernel and converts the text to speech. Punctuation and
special characters are read as Latin Unicode . For example '=' is read as
'equals sign'.

two music.compositions & three sound.art pieces & an informative text:
thin(g)k-music
The pieces presented in the performance don=92t sound, they crack, break,=
squeak, squeal etc. etc. etc. and in reaction against the hero worship
so established at the prayer meetings of classical people known as
concerts. and today in the crack between two centuries and during
ultraglobal happysaddness life, i/you/we/them have found other solutions
to the virtuous via the daily. example? ok: we turn the tv on and zap
thru channels faster than superman flies to snatch louis lane, faster
than paganini could skip across violin strings. our remote controls are
our daily bread for which we pray. we, yes we, are no longer subject to
time; we can freeze people, places and things. further: mute, blind and
lam them (in the middle of a word(s) or (re)action), or even in a case
of imaginary capitol punishment zap them into the oblivious realm of the
black known as =91off=92. today we, including you, are fake, living as a=
desktop alias. About this performance alias music alias possibility? ok:
i concentrate on what lies around me, my house, my world. what? ok: the
debris in the crack of the two centuries i stand stuck in. my coffee
cups, my paper, my vinyl, my glass, my pavorotti, my megaphonics, etc.
etc. etc. we ((the royal (ad)version)) don=92t need more highcultur
anymore for that; no for we have our utensils, our collection of ofs.
what? ok: our mind and our body:: wrapped up in easy consumer
electronics. The thing thing electrified with a mike mixer thing thing
brought to you by japan and continuing to communicate to all worldly per
air waveform at high/low decibel, short/long & big/small wave thing
thing. this idea continued on channel one through sixteen: Getting to
the point/border, i/me present you/them the sound of non? sound(ing)
thing(s) musics. microsounds amped up. feedback tuckedup into the coffee
cup ketchup bottle dowap bebob burp thing with variations on this
non?musical material non?art objects of various porous/nonporous
objective (in terms of the daily) earthly items (sometimes) found
at/in/on stores here/there/anywhere infecting us with gutter reduced
supermarket prices. final comment, finally: listen=3Dlisten; dig=3Denjoy;=

conclusion, finally: john cage has left us; lara croft wears fake

Registration now open
http://trace.ntu.ac.uk/incubation
We are pleased to announce that registration is now available for
Incubation, the Second Conference on Writing and the Internet, to be
held at
The Nottingham Trent University, UK on 15th-17th July 2002.
Main speakers include:
Lizzie Jackson, Editor, Communities, BBCi
Talan Memmott, winner of the trAce/Alt-X New Media Writing Award for his
work "Lexia to Perplexia" and
Robin Rimbaud, sound artist, on working with digital texts and sounds.
Incubation2 is the second trAce International Conference on Writing &
the
Internet, and the premier international event for writers working on the
web. In 2000 it attracted delegates from around the world, including
America, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Holland, Norway, Slovenia and
Sweden.
2002 promises to be even bigger. Incubation2 is not just a chance to
hear
some of the best writers working on the web today. It will provide a
showcase for the writing of the future and offer a glimpse into the work
of
writers who use the internet to develop ground-breaking content: poetry
with
sound and images, personal histories, news, journalism, stories with
multiple endings. This is writing on the web, for the web, and about the
web.
The conference is a significant opportunity for writers to extend their
professional development, learn new skills, and interact with some of
the
leading writers and artists working online today. There will be
opportunities to meet with writers who have made a significant
contribution
to this new form, as well as the chance for writers to show their own
work
and look at other people's. There will be skills-based workshops and
feedback workshops, panel discussions, presentations, demonstrations and
performances, and plenty of opportunity to network and meet those people
you
only ever knew online.
An archive of pictures, sound recordings and comments about the previous
Incubation conference in 2000 is also available.
We hope we will be meeting you in July.

INTRODUCTION
As part of Tate Modern's Interpretation and Education programme, a half day
conference on surveillance technologies and new media art will be take
place. SURVEILLANCE AND CONTROL considers widespread uses of electronic
surveillance, analysing recent social and political developments, and
asking how various surveillance technologies have impacted on new media art
practice.

ABOUT THE EVENT
We are living in a medialised society. Surveillance devices are used
increasingly to monitor physical space, while the operation of global
interception systems show the vulnerability of electronic space. The
increasing ubiquity of surveillance has radically transformed the relation
between public and private spheres, as well as the very nature of political
and technological control.
This half day conference will probe recent developments in surveillance
debates. Investigative journalist, Duncan Campbell and media theorist,
Eric Kluitenberg look at issues such as the use of the English/American
automated interception and relay system, Echelon, and the controversial
Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPa), which updates UK law on the
interception of communications.
Presentations by artists, Marko Peljhan, Kate Rich and Julia Scher will ask
how artists are responding to, or subverting the surveillance strategies
employed by the commercial and governmental sectors.
