Plus new entries on our 'book/disk' page. Check them out! http://www.realtokyo.co.jp/ =============================================================== (1) Out of Tokyo =============================================================== Vol. 55: The Power of Location part 4 by Ozaki Tetsuya The last weekend was one with a very positive surprise for me. Following an invitation by email from Higashiizumi Ichiro, I went to attend the opening party of an event titled "Taping." Since illustrator Ito Keiji, design unit Namaiki and others were among the participants I had no doubt it would be an interesting event, but I ended up being struck with admiration not only of the event itself but also of the wonderful space it took place in. The venue, "Tsukiji Manson," is an alternative space in Higashi Kanda. It's a rather inconveniently located place in 7-8 minutes walking distance from Akihabara. To call it a "typical hollow area in the middle of the city" would actually come even closer than just "inconvenient"... Read more at: http://www.realtokyo.co.jp/en/column/ozaki55.htm =============================================================== (2) Event Pick of the Week =============================================================== Hot Korean Film Festival Even if you're one of those who feel like they've had enough of Korean movies recently, with a flood of unique films in the program this festival is one you just have to endure. Recommended also to advanced fans with a general knowledge of the genre, the festival offers plenty of 'spicy' delicacies in accordance to its title. Especially the set of films by Hong Sang Soo including "The Day a Pig Fell Into the Well," "The Power of Kangwon Province," "Virgin Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors" and "Turning Gate" is a section all art film and repertory cinema aficionados should check out. Go and judge by yourself if what you see tastes hot or rather sweet. Since this is an event that is organized by film distributors in order to introduce (and sell) their items, another point of concern is the number of titles that change hands here. - --Maru http://www.realtokyo.co.jp/event_cgi/ev_viewE.cgi?1,2136 =============================================================== (3) Presents =============================================================== We still accept applications for one of the ten copies of the "Open Mind" compilation CD that was produced by Mori Art Museum in connection with an event with the same title last December.

If anyone is interested in finding out more about this project or participating, email me (jay gibson) at jay@deadlymob.org. ________________________________ dEadly mOb <Youth Out Bush Tour> The Deadly Mob Youth Out Bush tour aims to provide youths in remote and rural locations with information on the Internet. One of the aims of the project is to work with communities to find ways for youths to access IT (Information Technology), build awareness of the different uses of the internet and promote the Deadly Mob Internet Cafe - based at the Gap Youth Centre in Alice Springs. The 'Deadly Mob' team will visit remote and rural locations to work with young people in conjunction with their community. One of the aims is to assist communities to establish youth councils, liaise with urban-based youth services and assist with IT and community development training. Major elements of this project will be a Tour of Central Australian communities in the 2nd half of 2003. This tour will visit 16 major communities in Central and Southern region of the Northern Territory and will have the following 5 facets: * A presentation =96 using computer/data projector and online resources, to raise awareness of the Internet =96 what it is, what you can get from it, how you can use it for your own purposes. * A multimedia project =96 including teacher=92s packs, that involve young people in identifying strong mentors on their communities, interviewing them and uploading multimedia files, stories, video clips and photographs onto the website. We'll also generate community webpages and identify kids in that community that may want to take on the respoinsibility of maintaining the site. * A competition =96 where young people paint broken computer mice, select one to represent the community and have a digital representation made into an icon/button on the dEadly mOb website, where each community=92s webpage can be accessed, viewed and amended. * Action Research - identifying what computer and communications technology is already in the community, who has access to it and other related questions. Following the tour this data will be collated and recommendations made arising from what is suggested. Other partners indicating interest in the action research are Central Land Council, Telstra, Waltja Tjutangku Palyapayi (Remote Family Service) and LATIS (this will be confirmed) * The concept of a Youth Council will be floated among young people in each community who show interest in the presentation and in new technology. The community would then be consulted regarding the recognition of these young people as those who could represent them in terms of IT and communications issues and other youth issues they may identify. Mentor Support and IT and other training could then be provided to these identified young people. - --bound1044332390-- ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 05 Feb 2003 22:07:21 -0500 From: Cary Peppermint <mint77@restlessculture.net> Subject: A Fever Lecture This is a newly completed .mp3 version of one the technolectures from "Conductor Number Seventeen." This particular technolecture along with 6 other technolectures will be given Saturday, February 8th, 10pm at Collective Unconscious in NYC. The title of the lecture is "A Fever Lecture." The "music" part of the lecture was re-mixed at 7:12pm on Tuesday, February 4th, 2003. The voice track was recorded at 8:10pm and quickly deleted at 8:30pm and then a vocal-preamble was recorded for the piece beginning at 8:42pm. The preamble was edited once at 9:03pm, eliminating what the artist (me) deemed excessive use of the of the word "goddamn." At 9:15pm the .aiff file was converted to an .mp3 file and then promptly uploaded at 9:20pm for public reception at http://www.restlessculture.net/downloads/fever_lecture.mp3 The piece runs at 10 minutes, 14 seconds. It is an 11.7 MB download. This time is too long by popular music standards, however "A Fever Lecture" is not intended as popular music. I have a 56k dial-up connection and the piece took exactly 23 minutes to upload so 56k users could expect roughly the same amount of time for the download. I imagine if you have a DSL/cable connection or better this will be no problem. Between now and May 2003 I will release 6 additional lectures from "Conductor Number Seventeen" for download in .mp3 format.

This revaluation of the body points to the necessity to change our understanding of the role of the body in processes of perception and meaning making. Corporal literacy understood as the bodily capacity to read and make sense also changes the notion of thought and meaning itself, the idea of what it means to do thinking, to make meaning, to rationalize. "What is important" write Lakoff and Johnson in their Philosophy in the Flesh, "is not just that we have bodies and that thought is somehow embodied. What is important is that the very peculiar nature of our bodies shapes our very possibilities for conceptualisation and categorization." Corporal literacy describes these abilities of the body to perceive, read and make sense. It is a strategic term, with which we want to make a space for interaction and collaboration between researchers approaching questions of bodily meaning making from various backgrounds. George Lakoff and Mark Johnson. Philosophy in the Flesh. The Embodied Mind and its Challenge to Western Thought. Basic Books 1999: 19 Rob van Kranenburg: In A future world of supersenses, Martin Rantzer of Ericsson Foresight claims: "New communication senses will be needed in the future to enable people to absorb the enormous mass of information with which they are confronted," According to him the user interfaces we use today to transmit information to our brains threaten create a real bottleneck for new broadband services. "The boundaries of what constitutes consumer electronics and computers are getting blurred," said Gerard J. Kleisterlee, the chief executive of Royal Philips Electronics. "As we get wireless networking in the home, everything starts to talk to everything." Implementing digital connecitivity in an analogue environment without a design for all the senses , without a concept of corporal literacy, leads to information overload. In a ubiquitous computing environment the new intelligence is extelligence, "knowledge and tools that are outside people's heads" (Stewart and Cohen, 1997) In a ubiquitous computing environment the user has to be not only textually and visually literate, both also have corporal literacy, that is an awareness of extelligence and a working knowledge of all the senses. It is our claim in staking out a field of corporal literacy that in contemporary performance and theatrical practice we find an actualization of (and ways of dealing with) the bottleneck scenarios that are envisaged by information experts.

We pair these two art historical moments to analyze the ways in which software functions as art and art functions as software. We are interested in early Video Art and it's relationship to current software-art or artware approaches. /* ======================= * V.1.0.1 * ======================== */ Version.1.0.1 of criticalartware intertwines interviews with Kate Horsfield of the Video Data Bank (www.vdb.org) and the founding members of Low-Fi (www.low-fi.org.uk). Building discourse between artists, activists and theorists, criticalartware will offer, intertwine and juxtapose interviews, experiences, tools, systems and documents from people who have been instrumental in these moments. In this manner, criticalartware will become a shared and open system of community resources. /* ======================= * INVITATION * ======================== */ We invite artists, activists, developers, reverse engineers, theorists, programmers, contemporary historians, archivists, codeworkers and cultural agents of all kinds to join us. Share your perspectives and contribute to discussions and developments in these developing fields and histories. Responding to your input, our contributions and your responses, criticalartware will reshape and map those outcomes, providing a resource for dynamically determining contemporary histories and exploring current practices. /* ======================= * OPEN.CONNECTION * ======================== */ http://www.criticalartware.net /* ======================= * CORE.DEVELOPERS * ======================== */ Jon Cates Jon Satrom Ben Syverson /* ======================= * CONTRIBUTING.DEVELOPERS * ======================== */ Aaron Baumle Nick Hornby Blithe Riley Christian Ryan /* ======================= * CONTINUING.DEVELOPMENT * ======================== */ http://www.criticalartware.net /* ======================= * END.MESSAGE * ======================== */ If you are not interested in receiving criticalartware updates simply email: goodbye@criticalartware.net ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 3 Feb 2003 15:29:18 -0500 From: Dominique Fontaine <dfontaine@fondation-langlois.org> Subject: Recent News from the Daniel Langlois Foundation - February 2003 French version / Version française : http://www.fondation-langlois.org/f/nouvelles/index.html [ Apologies for cross-posting / veuillez excuser les envois multiples ] ************************************************************************ *RECENT NEWS - FEBRUARY 2003* *New Program at the Foundation* - The Foundation is proud to announce its new program, STRATEGIC GRANTS FOR ORGANIZATIONS. Press release: http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/informations/nouvelles/index.html To consult the program's guidelines: http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/programmes/program_org.html *ANARCHIVE 2: DIGITAL SNOW Launched in Toronto* After an initial launch of ANARCHIVE 2: DIGITAL SNOW in Montreal and Paris last October, the Daniel Langlois Foundation and Époxy Communications will hold a second launch in Toronto on February 7. Press release: http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/informations/nouvelles/index2.html *New Acquisitions by the Centre for Research and Documentation (CR+D)* As we do every month, we're publishing a bibliography of the latest current acquisitions made by the Foundation's Centre for Research and Documentation. New Acquisitions List: http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/CRD/acquisitions/index.html *REMINDER* *Descriptions of funded projects from organizations in 2002* Following its last call for projects within its two programs for organizations (the EXHIBITION, DISTRIBUTION AND PERFORMANCE PROGRAM FOR ORGANIZATIONS and the PROGRAM FOR ORGANIZATIONS FROM EMERGING REGIONS, both of which have now been suspended), the Foundation selected 19 projects, six from Canada, three from the United Kingdom, two from Columbia, two from the United States, and one from each of the following countries: Brazil, Ghana, Latvia, Peru, the Netherlands and Sweden. You will find a more detailed description of the funded projects and their participants here: http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/projets/index.html *Three researchers in residence at the Centre for Research and Documentation (CR+D) in 2003* In response to a call for research proposals in its Program of Grants for Researchers in Residence, the Foundation is happy to announce that three eminent researchers are coming to Montreal. The three are Mona Jimenez (United States) [http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/crd/residences/jimenez.html], Yvonne Spielman (Germany) [http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/crd/residences/spielman.html] and Ricardo Dal Farra (Argentina) [http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/crd/residences/dalfarra.html]. This program is open to historians, curators, critics, independent researchers, artists and scientists, including those working in computer science and related fields in the humanities and social sciences. The research must be conducted at the Foundation and focused on its documentation or archive collections. Nevertheless, a research project may include activities outside the CR+D (field work, laboratory activities, a workshop) and draw on resources outside the Foundation. One of the program's aims is to develop knowledge on the impact of new digital technologies on man and society. Hence, grant recipients are invited to publish their research findings on our Web site or place digitized documents on-line after first contextualizing and interpreting them. *The 9 EVENINGS OF THEATRE AND ENGINEERING FONDS* The Foundation is pleased to announce that it has acquired the 9 EVENINGS OF THEATRE AND ENGINEERING FONDS. In 1965, with help from Robert Rauschenberg, Billy Klüver sought out the expertise of engineers at Bell Laboratories research centre (Murray Hills, New Jersey, U.S.) to carry out an interdisciplinary project blending avant-garde theatre, dance and new technologies. The artists John Cage, Lucinda Childs, Öyvind Fahlström, Alex Hay, Deborah Hay, Steve Paxton, Yvonne Rainer, Robert Rauschenberg, David Tudor and Robert Whitman each produced an original performance piece. Engineers were paired with the 10 artists to develop the technical components used on stage by the participants (dancers, actors, musicians). 9 EVENINGS OF THEATRE AND ENGINEERING was to be presented within the Stockholm Festival of Art and Technology in 1966. When the festival's American program was cancelled, Billy Klüver moved the performance series to the 69th Regiment Armory in New York, where it ran from October 13 to 23, 1966. These archives include in particular 35 and 16 mm films, sound recordings, photographs, manuscripts, correspondence, technical drawings, and various artifacts used as performance props. Please take note that in date of December 2002, the Foundation has only received part of these archives which include audio-visual documents used in the making of two documentary films on performances by Öyvind Fahlström and Robert Rauschenberg, respectively entitled Kisses Sweeter than Wine and Open Score. A more detailled description of these archives will be available on our Web site during the course of 2003. ************************************************************************ *About the Daniel Langlois Foundation for Art, Science, and Technology* The Daniel Langlois Foundation's purpose is to further artistic and scientific knowledge by fostering the meeting of art and science in the field of technologies. The Foundation seeks to nurture a critical awareness of technology's implications for human beings and their natural and cultural environments, and to promote the exploration of aesthetics suited to evolving human environments.
