This should be a unique event – a non-partisan conference exploring ideas from a diverse range of perspectives on the future of Australia’s media, education and democracy. Interface is a cross between a conference and a festival, with forums, panels, skills-based workshops, film screenings, and Slip~stitch - a cross- campus competition of political artwork. All welcome. We mean all. We want to mix first years, activists, creative policy thinkers, politicians, jaded ex- politicians, journalists, artists, independent media makers, people who run commercial media, youth sector workers, postgrad students, people who work for local councils, bureaucrats, academics, culture jammers & advertising workers...and see what happens. We'll be covering a lot of issues in two days: anything from strategies for democratic renewal to sources of stereotyping in the media to practical workshops on media skills or project funding. We’re hoping that there will be a session to cater to every level of experience & interest, but also that no- one will leave without having been challenged, confronted, and inspired. The full programme is available on our website: www.nexus.org.au Keynote speakers include: Kristy Delaney - Youth Action & Policy Association, Mark Davis - Author of Ganglands, Margo Kingston – journalist @ SMH, Tim Watts – Director of Ozprospect, Ted Mack - former independent MP, Kerry Nettle - Greens Senator elect, Clover Moore - Independent MP, Matt Roberts - Young People & Public Space Project in Western Sydney, Brian Murnane - Argyle Community Housing Network, Bob Ellis - Author & Journalist, Craig Reucassel – Editor at The Chaser, Van Badham – Author of The Dole Diaries, Marcus Westbury – Founder of This is Not Art festivals & the Octapod, Graham Young – Editor of onlineopinion.com.au.

Gitlin will discuss and document how we live in a supersaturated mess of sounds and images directed at us by Big Business and Big Government. Invasion of our thoughts and emotions are with us always: video games, elevator music, billboards, waiting room TV, soundtrucks, the mobile phone, etc. Gitlin, in addition to his practical presentation, will give the whole a theoretical underpinning by discussing the writings of such sociologists as Georg Simmel. Gitlin sees the unbridled media as working against the creation of the opposite of global capitalism--what he calls "global civil society." Today's overwhelming images and sounds have nothing to do with the worldwide problems of disease, inequality, oppression, and environmental poisoning. In fact the noise works to the advantage of the oligarchs. Also, the media excesses show no sign of being self-correcting or self-transforming. Todd Gitlin is professor of culture, journalism, and sociology at New York University. He has written many seminal books, including "Inside Prime Time," "The Whole World is Watching," and "The Twilight of Common Dreams." After Gitlin's presentation, an open period of questions and discussion will follow. The event will take place at the Brecht Forum on the 10th floor of 122 West 27th St. [between 6th and 7th Aves.], a short walk from the 28th St. 1, 2, N, and R stops, the 34th St. B, D, Q and W stop, and the 23rd St. F and V stop. There is no set fee for the presentation, but a contribution to aid the LBC is requested. If you have questions, contact the LBC /Anarchist Forum, 212-979-8353, 339 Lafayette St., Room 202, NYC, NY 10012 or e-mail: roberterler@erols.com. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 03 Apr 2002 18:51:11 +0200 From: Oliver Ressler <oliver.ressler@chello.at> Subject: Videoinstallation "This is what democracy...", Plattform, Berlin (for English please scroll down) THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE! 2-Kanal-Videoinstallation von Oliver Ressler, 38 min., 2002 plattform. chausseestr 110/I. d-10115 berlin. fon +49-30-280 46 973. fax +49-30-280 47 029 10.04.-10.05.02, öffnungszeiten: mi/do/fr 14-19 uhr eröffnung: 10.04.02, 19 uhr Die Videoinstallation "This is what democracy looks like!" thematisiert Ereignisse rund um eine Demonstration am 1. Juli 2001 gegen das zu diesem Zeitpunkt in Salzburg tagende World Economic Forum, einem privaten Lobbyverein des Großkapitals. "Milliardenschwere Deals, die wenigen Wohlstand und Reichtum, vielen jedoch Ausbeutung und Armut bringen, werden auf diesen Treffen von den selbst ernannten ,Global Leaders' unter Ausschluss der Öffentlichkeit in die Wege geleitet. Um den ordnungsgemäßen Ablauf der ökonomischen Globalisierung sicherzustellen, wurde der im Zentrum Salzburgs liegende Tagungsort des WEF weiträumig abgesperrt und alle Demonstrationen bis auf eine Stehkundgebung am Bahnhofsvorplatz verboten." (Auszug aus der Einleitung des Videos) Dieses Videoinstallation gibt einen Einblick in den Ablauf der ersten "Anti-Globalisierungsdemonstration" in Österreich, die in der Folge der medial viel beachteten Demonstrationen in Seattle, Prag, Davos, Quebec und Göteburg stattgefunden hat. In dieser polizeilich verbotenen Demonstration in Salzburg wurden 919 DemoteilnehmerInnen von der Polizei eingekesselt und über sieben Stunden lang festgehalten. Werden in den dominierenden medialen Darstellungen die TeilnehmerInnen an den anti-kapitalistischen Protesten entweder als naive oder als gewaltbereite Chaoten verunglimpft, nehmen sie in der Videoinstallation "This is what democracy looks like!" hingegen die Rolle von aktiven SprecherInnen ein. Mit sechs DemoteilnehmerInnen wurden Gespräche zu den Ereignissen in Salzburg geführt. Die Einschränkung demokratischer Grundrechte - die sich vor allem im Verbot zu demonstrieren oder der Anhaltung hunderter Menschen im Polizeikessel zeigte - und das Spannungsfeld zwischen der begrenzten physischen Gewalt einzelner DemoteilnehmerInnen und der von der Staatsmacht ausgeübten strukturellen und physischen Gewalt entwickeln sich dabei als zentrale Themen. Ausschnitte aus den Gesprächen sind zu Videoaufnahmen montiert, die von mir und (Video)AktivistInnen in Salzburg aufgezeichnet wurden. Die Kameraperspektive entspricht dabei der Sicht der DemoteilnehmerInnen und stellt eine unmittelbare Konfrontation der BetrachterInnen des Videos mit den Geschehnissen her. Interviewte DemoteilnehmerInnen: Walter Baier, Tanja Jenni, Ingrid Popper, Michael Pröbsting, Daniel Sanin, Irene Zavarsky Videomaterial von Indymedia Austria, Filmliga Linz, offscreen - offenes film forum salzburg, UTV Wien, Oliver Ressler E n g l i s h: THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE! 2-channel video installation by Oliver Ressler, 38 min., 2002 plattform. chausseestr 110/I. d-10115 berlin. ph +49-30-280 46 973. fax +49-30-280 47 029 10.04.-10.05.02, wed/thu/fri 2-7 pm opening: 10.04.02, 7 pm The video installation "This is what democracy looks like!" thematizes the events of 1 July 2001 which took place surrounding a demonstration against the World Economic Forum - a private lobbying organization of major capital - which was meeting in Salzburg at the time. "At those meetings, in the absence of the public, billion dollar deals are set into motion by the self-appointed 'global leaders.' These deals bring wealth and prosperity to a few, and exploitation and poverty to many. To assure the orderly proceedings of economic globalization, the conference facilities, located in the center of Salzburg, are largely blocked off and all demonstrations are forbidden other than a rally at the square in front of the train station." (Excerpt from the introduction of the video) This video installation gives insight into the course of events of the first "anti-globalization demonstration" in Austria, held subsequent to the demonstrations in Seattle, Prague, Davos, Quebec, and Gothenburg, which all received a great deal of media attention. In this demonstration in Salzburg, which was forbidden by the police, 919 demonstrators were encircled in a police blockade and detained for over seven hours. In the video installation "This is what democracy looks like!" anti-capitalist demonstrators take the role of active spokespersons, contrary to dominant media representations that denigrate them as either naive or violent chaotic rowdies. Conversations about the events in Salzburg were carried out with six demonstrators. The central themes developed in the video are; the limitation of basic democratic rights - which is shown mainly in the ban on demonstrating and the detainment of hundreds of people in police encirclement - and the tension between the limited physical force of a few demonstrators and the structural and physical violence practiced by state power. Excerpts from the conversations are put together with my own video recordings and those from (video) activists in Salzburg. The camera angle corresponds with the perspective of the demonstrators, thereby placing video viewers in direct confrontation with the events.

A project of Tel-SPAN, the telematic broadcasting channel of the US Department of Art & Technology, the Media Deconstruction Kit reconfigures, disorients, and amplifies the mis-information of live broadcast media into an immersive, sensorial, multimedia experience. Television graphics, news talk, advertising, sound bites, and political pundancy are transformed into a collaged rendering of disintegrated media, seductive audio textures, and telematic commentary (texts by Mark Amerika). For this installation, a Preview version has been mastered on DVD consisting of recorded broadcast footage from CNN. The Preview demonstrates the way in which live material is reconfigured as a canonic, multi-layered video wall, while the network interaction of the Web viewer disrupts the live footage by superimposing the user's IP address. This insertion of the machine identity of the viewer is distributed over the Web (in the final version), in order to reverse the anonymity and powerlessness of the passive television viewer. Here, the viewer is invited to do more than click on the remote control; they are encouraged to playfully and collectively transform, manipulate, and explode the content of live broadcast television into a richly textured display of media, sound and pointed commentary. The Media Deconstruction Kit is part of the Telemusic networked media project, a collaboration with computer music researcher and composer John Young, and was created with Max/MSP and Nato. A production of Zakros InterArts.

Today, this multi-layered, discursive video genre situates itself in the context of new communications media and digital production which open new dimensions to image technologies and means of diffusion. The video essayist practice also responds in content to an increasingly complex society. Thus, the primary concern of audiovisual essayists is not to represent visible realities but to test conceptual connections through the articulation of rather untangible social and cultural transitions. The diverse ways in which this working method expresses itself in the combination of precise observation and recording, subjective narration, and theoretical reflection will be the subject of the symposium.

Careful breaths, quickening heartbeats, and the small vibrations of the finger mix with the staccato of the gear-driven celluloid." J.

Through the lecture and the slide projection of Mrs. Marjorie Devon, a manager of the Tamarind the Art institute in New Mexico, USA, the audience will be introduced to marking and the preserving of the identity in the countries of the new world, before all in USA and Canada. But at the same time the audience will be able to see the pushing to the margins of certain groups and people and the artists who belong to these groups in the frames of the American society. This is mainly about artists who are pushed aside because of certain crisis of their identity (lesbian and homosexual groups, the African-American community and women). The presentation will also encompass a conversation on the American cultural tradition that is its inexistence and the impact of this phenomenon on the pushing aside of the artists as a group. - ------------------------------------------------------- Melentie Pandilovski Director Orce Nikolov 109, 1000 Skopje Republic of Macedonia Tel/Fax: +389.2.133.541 Tel/Fax: +389.2.214.495 Mobile: +389.70.217.075 http://www.scca.org.mk - ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: majordomo@bbs.thing.net and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@bbs.thing.net
