It is a performance for two operators, in which incorporeal communication is used as the starting point for creating a controlled communication system. The system is based on the use of brain waves and eye movement for performing basic commands while defining a new digital discourse in virtual space without using the traditional and generally established ways of communication [thus, socially recognized and conventional communication codes are abandoned – speech, body gestures etc.]. The operators, positioned parallel to each other so that they do not face each other, establish a communication testing ground, within which they are trying to create a dialogue with the help of 3D objects. Each operator is represented, in the space of virtual reality, by a matching avatar that embodies primitive behavioral characteristics and form, at least in the initial phase. The operators’ task is to »educate« their corresponding representation in virtual space by performing a series of operations and commands, which are set up in direct relationship to the global net dynamics [macro] and the user’s neuronic net [micro]. Visual immersion of the viewer will be enabled with the help of polarization glasses. They will be able to experience the perception of computer-generated events as the presence of reality in the spirit of the perception of the third dimension. - -- Dr. Andrea Buddensieg Öffentlichkeitsarbeit, Leitung Head of Public Relations ZKM /////// / |< ||| | Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie Lorenzstr. 19 D-76135 Karlsruhe Tel +49-(0)721-8100-1201 Fax +49-(0)721-8100-1139 Email buddensieg@zkm.de www.zkm.de ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 18 Feb 2003 15:16:07 +0100 (CET) From: Le Monde diplomatique <dispatch@monde-diplomatique.fr> Subject: February 2003 Le Monde diplomatique ----------------------------------------------------- February 2003 In this issue: ... the coming war: what Iraqis think; the US propaganda war; what does Blair want?

This time, though, everybody everywhere is sceptical about the half-truths, lies and rumours. Translated by Linda Butler US-Iraq weapons sales: the dossier * By ERIC ROULEAU Translated by Linda Butler Tony Blair, issue by issue By TOM BENTLEY The prime minister of Britain is more respected in the United States than in either the country that elected him or the European Union of which that country is a member. What influence can he have on war in Iraq? Original text in English <http://MondeDiplo.com/2003/02/04blair> Central Asia: America's rear base * By VICKEN CHETERIAN United States-led troops are being stationed from Armenia to Kazakhstan, and US military advisers, trainers and specialists are moving into former states of the USSR, in pursuit of terrorists - and the control of oil and gas. Original text in English Djibouti: a new army behind the wire * By PHILIPPE LEYMARIE THE United States army is back in the Horn of Africa, 10 years after its disastrous incursion in Somalia (1). This time it is there to fight terrorism. More than 1,000 soldiers are stationed in Djibouti, once the French Somali Coast protectorate, at Camp Lemonier, originally occupied by the French Foreign Legion. The base has grown steadily since they arrived last September. Translated by Harry Forster Kosovo undefused * By JEAN-ARNAULT DÉRENS Kosovo has been a UN protectorate for almost four years. The situation there is unresolved. The economy is in a mess, Serbs have been overruled and ejected, and the Kosovans are fighting among themselves. Translated by Barbara Wilson BUSH TEAM TURNED A SOLUBLE PROBLEM INTO A CRISIS North Korea's nuclear winter * By BRUCE CUMINGS President George Bush wants to topple the North Korean regime, and has total disregard for South Korea's attempts at reconciliation. He is risking the safety of both Koreas, and causing alarm in China and Japan. Original text in English THREATS OF ENFORCED MASS EXPULSION Israel: a new Palestinian diaspora * by AMIRA HASS The repugnant idea of the 'transfer' of the Palestinians - meaning their total expulsion - now appeals to many Israelis. The Israeli army and some settlers are already organising 'mini-transfers' in the West Bank, and any serious new threat to Israel (for example, missile attacks from Iraq at war) could precipitate the brutally enforced expulsion of millions. Translated by Luke Sandford APATHY IS THE SECRET OF PUTIN'S SUCCESS Russia: the default option * By CARINE CLÉMENT Vladimir Putin has presided over the introduction of a labour code that reduced rights for employees, over the collapse of social security and pensions, and over the widening gap between rich and poor. He has put his own men in key economic, political and media positions. But he is still supported by four out of five Russians. There is no credible alternative. Translated by Barry Smerin Is there any opposition? * By CARINE CLÉMENT Translated by Barry Smerin CAN THE NEW LEADERS LEAVE NEOLIBEALISM BEHIND? Latin America: critical year for the left By EMIR SADER The victories of Lula da Silva in Brazil and Lucio Gutiérrez in Ecuador, and Hugo Chávez's resistance to destabilisation in Venezuela have changed the possible future of the left throughout Latin America.

Drive will remain as a privileged document about artistic thought in the nineties, of a deep change in the concept of art, media and life. But the central issue of this book leads much further: Crandall offers a coherent theory of the individual, its redefinition through the media space and through worldwide communication networks. Drive is about thinking the image and the status of the human being in the age of Internet and of globalized mass media. Under these conditions, Jordan Crandall is pushing forward two main philosophical investigations of the seventies and eighties: Gilles Deleuze's concept of "Rhizome" and Michel Foucault's analysis of the subject at the interface between technology and the body. ROBERT FLECK, Independent critic and curator, director of Graduate Studies at Ecole Regionale des Beaux-Arts in Nantes Jordan Crandall has the mind of a pragmatist and the heart of a utopian. With astonishing breadth and rare lucidity, he calls upon psychoanalysis, film theory, semiotics, and demography to expose the insidious political and economic forces that structure and control the “body-image-machine complex.” While sketching a chilling image of the intersection of the ascendant database paradigm with military technology and globalized commerce, Crandall does not succumb to cynicism or fashionable passivity, but presents an urgent case for the possibility of “new identity formations and agencies.” In his art, writing, and editorial work, Crandall has fashioned a critically important survival guide to the emerging present. LAWRENCE RINDER, Curator of Contemporary Art at the Whitney Museum, New York In Drive, Jordan Crandall boldly re-figures the fundamental metaphors guiding our interactions with digital media, including "pages," "nodes," and "links." He adopts instead the idea of a differentiated field that includes computers, networks, users and physical spaces. Working from this premise, he shows how the metaphor of the vehicle, imagined both as a transportation device and as a semiotic-linguistic entity, can be used to re-think our embodied relation to inscription technologies and particularly to digital media. Richly imagined and powerfully argued, this book has the potential to revolutionize our discourses about media and consequently the possibilities we can envision for them -- and for us. N. KATHERINE HAYLES, Professor of English and Media Arts at UCLA and author of _How We Became Posthuman: Virtual Bodies in Cybernetics, Literature, and Informatics_ Between machine vision and a database, between art world, critical theory and new media, between a screen and a mobile vehicle, between art practice, writing and net-dialog, between the network and the cinematic, between theory and visual poetry -- Jordan Crandall’s works strike at the most critical conceptual knots of our computer culture. LEV MANOVICH, Associate Professor of Visual Arts at University of California San Diego and author of _The Language of New Media_ Today, Jordan Crandall's urgent voice demands to be heard. His work in media theory compels us to recognize the extent to which our consciousness is formed, manipulated and maintained by a range of technologies extending from those associated with image production to those constructing and managing ubiquitous networks. DAVID A. ROSS, former Director, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Jordan Crandall’s reflections on the relation between “technological facing,” sensorium and subjectivity update Benjamin’s and Deleuze’s insights as vision and desire are wired in imaging technologies produced for Hollywood and the military. Crandall’s fusion of film and military-driven “strategic seeing” is not the stuff of science fiction but a deconstructive replication of the military-industrial-entertainment complex’s invasion of our perceptual processes. GEORGE YUDICE, Director of the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies, New York University Drive resists either cybernetic or science fiction scripts for digital culture that often invite an indulgence in parallel or recursive realities. For Jordan Crandall, digital devices are simply a new set of interfaces and switches in the larger colloidal field of everything else, and so they are about the material within which they are embedded - -- our bodies, our larger marketplaces and networks, and our daily theaters of operation. Discussed as animations or activities, as verbs rather than nouns, these technologies are passages between "interior and exterior rhythms," and they both ventriloquize and receive life beyond their own boundaries and capabilities. However invisible the may be, they are the measured by the huge spaces they calibrate, spaces controlled by commerce, by the military and by millions of other voices. These very spaces that are both intrinsic and extrinsic to the digital are Crandall's sites, not only discussed but occupied, in installations, objects, online forums, essays and special publications. KELLER EASTERLING, Associate Professor in the School of Architecture at Yale University and author of Organization Space What characterizes this important work as a whole is its grand human scale and its attention to new phenomenologies of embodiment and subjective experience. In Drive, Crandall makes a realm of surveillance technologies that operate largely below the threshold of conscious awareness felt in erotic choreographies and rhythmic uses of imagery. Fresh theoretical categories emerge out of this art. MARGARET MORSE, Professor of Film and Digital Media at University of California Santa Cruz and author of Virtualities: Television, Media Art, and Cyberculture JORDAN CRANDALL is an artist and media theorist. He is Assistant Professor in the Visual Arts Department at the University of California, San Diego. http://jordancrandall.com - -- ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Feb 2003 12:38:31 -0600 From: fran ilich <ilich@delete.tv> Subject: story streams Story streams Streaming Cinema 3.0, Philadelphia http://www.streamingcine.com/ The real-time creation of an online film by different filmmakers in 4 cities around the world.

Previously, she was a Hong Kong-based staff reporter for The Asian Wall Street Journal. She has written extensively on Asian politics in the Information age. Taylor C. Boas is pursuing a Ph.D. in political science at the University of California, Berkeley. They are the authors of The Internet and State Control in Authoritarian Regimes: China, Cuba, and the Counterrevolution (Carnegie Working Paper No. 21). About the Book As the Internet diffuses across the globe, many have come to believe that the technology poses an insurmountable threat to authoritarian rule. Grounded in the Internet's early libertarian culture and predicated on anecdotes pulled from diverse political climates, this conventional wisdom has informed the views of policy makers, business leaders, and media pundits alike. Yet few studies have sought to systematically analyze the exact ways in which Internet use may lay the basis for political change. In Open Networks, Closed Regimes, the authors take a comprehensive look at how a broad range of societal and political actors in eight authoritarian and semi-authoritarian countries employ the Internet. Based on methodical assessment of evidence from these cases-China, Cuba, Singapore, Vietnam, Burma, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt-the study contends that the Internet is not necessarily a threat to authoritarian regimes. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 1 Mar 2003 13:43:07 +0200 From: "Fred Thomas" <expatlist@hotmail.com> Subject: Expat_list Project Team - New Services for 2003 We publish the Expat List Service Website and Expat Mailing List to post and receive international job announcements related to various development fields: microfinance, poverty alleviation, community development, institution development, governance, health care, population, food security, agriculture, education, human resource development, disability rehabilitation, natural resource management, information technology, and rural development.

Il explore aussi les avantages théoriques et politiques que procure la notion de "multitudes" par rapport à celle de "différence sexuelle" pour la théorie et le mouvement queer. À la différence de ce qui se passe aux Etats-Unis, les mouvements queer en Europe, s'inspirent des cultures anarchistes et de l'émergence des cultures transgenres pour contrer l'"Empire Sexuel" notamment en proposant une dés-ontologisation des politiques des identités. Plus de base naturelle ("femme", "gay", etc.) qui puisse légitimer l'action politique. Importance non de "la différence sexuelle" ou de "la différence des homosexuels (le) s", mais des multitudes queer. Une multitude des corps : corps transgenres, hommes sans pénis, gouines garous, cyborgs, femmes butchs, pédés lesbiennesŠ La "multitude sexuelle" apparaît ainsi comme le sujet possible de la politique queer. - - This article deals with the formation of both queer movements and theories, with the relations that they entertain with feminisms and the political uses to which they put Foucault and Deleuze. It also explores the theoretical and political advantages provided by the concept of Œmultitudes¹ over that of Œsexual difference¹ for queer theory and movements. In contrast to the American scene, queer movements in Europe are inspired by anarchist culture and the emergence of transgendered cultures to counter the Œsexual Empire¹ notably by proposing a de-ontologisation of identity politics. More a natural base (Œwoman¹, Œgay¹ etc) which can legitimise political action. The emphasis is no longer on Œsexual difference¹ or Œthe difference of homosexuals¹, but on queer multitudes. A multitude of bodies, transgendered bodies, men without penises, dykes, cyborgs, butch girlsŠ.The Œsexual multitude¹ appears henceforth as the possible subject of a queer politics. Rosi Braidotti : Les sujets nomades féministes comme figure des multitudes - - À partir des innovations théoriques introduites par la pensée féministe post-structuraliste ces dix dernières années, cet article examine les présupposés et les implications d¹une vision féministe nomade de la subjectivité. L'accent tombe d'une part sur le matérialisme corporel et donc aussi sur la sexualité et la différence sexuelle, et de l'autre sur l'importance de nomadiser toute différence, afin d¹éviter de recomposer des formations molaires du sujet-femme. L¹article conclut sur la nécessité d'aborder le devenir-femme du sujet comme un projet a la fois politique et éthique et donc comme processus ouvert et concret. - - This article rests on the theoretical assumptions of feminist post-structuralist thought and aims at exploring some of their implications. It discusses the notion of nomadic feminist subjectivity and it addresses some of the tensions implicit in this notion. The emphasis falls on two central ideas: on the one hand on bodily materialism and hence also on sexuality and sexual difference. On the other hand the necessity is also stressed to nomadize all differences, in order to avoid the recomposition of molar formations of the feminine subject. The article concludes by arguing for the need to understand the becoming-woman of the subject as a project that is both political and ethical and hence requires an open and concrete approach. Maria Puig de la Bellacasa : Pour des savoirs qui comptent. Politiques féministes du savoir - - La politisation féministe de l¹expérience, le personnel est politique, a atteint les savoirs dits scientifiques. Les théorisations de ces politiques en termes de construction de ³ savoirs situés ² défient la tradition épistémologique moderne. Affirmant un style politique qui chérit les divergences solidaires ces théories prolongent la vivacité de l¹histoire politique du féminisme. - -The feminist politisation of experience, the personal is political, has reached that knowledge we call scientific. The theorizations of those politics in terms of the construction of ³situated knowledges² challenge modern epistemological traditions. Affirming a political style that cherishes divergent solidarities these theories continue the liveliness of the political history of feminism. Cristina Vega : Interroger le féminisme. Action, violence, gouvernementalité - - Interroger le féminisme devient, au présent, une exploration des trajets. Trajets à travers le scénario modifié des femmes dans la globalisation et trajets des exercices de lecture de ce scénario à partir du féminisme. Dans ce contexte, la question de la violence contre les femmes comme source de légitimation et de gestion du social et la mise à point du travail, des affects et de la vie quotidienne dans l'ère de la reproduction flexible deviennent des sphères clé des transformations des technologies du gouvernement des genres. Le conflit que suscite en ce moment l'intervention administrative différée et d'urgence et l'homologie que l¹action féministe même entretient a son égard doit être soumise à un examen qui place au centre les capacités désirantes et de création de valeur du féminisme. - - Any examination of contemporary feminism is an exploration of trajectories. Trajectories across the changing scenarios of women in globalisation. In this context, the question of violence against women as a source of both the legitimisation and the management of the social and the perfecting of work, of affects and of daily life in the era of flexible reproduction become key spheres of the transformations of the technologies of the government of gender. The conflict that incites the various and urgent administrative interventions and the equivalence that feminist action itself maintains with regard to it must itself be submitted to an examination which places at its centre the desiring capacities and the creation of the value of feminism. Noortje Marres : Quel est cet animal politique sorti du chapeau de la ³ gender theory ²? - -La seconde vague du féminisme a mis en évidence la particularité de phénomènes que la théorie politique moderne avait conceptualisés comme génériques de par leur nature et leur sujet : le citoyen , la communauté politique, les différents domaines de la politique. Depuis les pratiques et la théorie féministe ou queer ont non seulement montré que le sujet des arrangements et des domaines politiques est toujours historiquement spécifique.. Ils ont également montré que leur particularité peut être . constitutive de la politique. La spécificité des acteurs politiques, de procédures ou de thèmes particuliers peut informer des processus politiques . De cet apport du féminisme , ce court article argumente sur sa pertinence pour appréhender la politique aujourd¹hui .. Dans la mondialisation le caractère particulier des processus politiques et de ses ingrédients devient absolument évident.. Dans ce contexte des acteurs non orthodoxes comme les ONG deviennent des agents actifs de la politique et les frontières des communautés politiques deviennent mouvantes. Alors des sujets émergent qui résistent au traitement classique des institutions démocratiques comme celles que l¹on trouve à l¹intérieur des États nations . A mesure que la particularité des acteurs, des arrangements et des domaines de la politique devient absolument claire, les théories féministes ou queer jouent un rôle crucial dans la compréhension de la politique .. Elles nous disent non pas de résister à cette particularisation de la politique mais de nous en saisir. Elles nous rappellent que la principale question politique est celle de la délimitation de sites particuliers, la construction de formes spécifiques de la politique et l¹articulation , de domaines particuliers. - - Second-wave of feminism has stressed the particularity of phenomena thatmodern political theory had conceptualized as general in nature and scope :the citizen, the political community, the topics of politics. Since then,feminist and queer theories and practices have not only shown that thesubjects, arrangements and issues of politics are always historically specific. They have also demonstrated that their particularity may be constitutive of politics. The specificity of political actors, of particular procedures and themes may inform political processes. This insight of feminism, this short piece argues, is of special relevance for grasping politics today. Under circumstances of globalization, the particularity of political processes, and their ingredients, becomes increasingly obvious. In this context, unorthodox actors, such as ngo¹s, serve as agents of politics, and the boundaries of political communities become unsettled. Also, here issues emerge that resist treatment in classic democratic institutions, such as those founded in the nation-state. As the particularity of the actors, arrangements and issues is increasingly clear, feminist and queer theory become especially crucial to the understanding of politics. It tells us not to resist this particularization of politics, but to embrace it. It reminds us that the main political question is that of the staking-out of particular sites, the construction of specific forms of politics, and the articulation of particular issues. Marie-Hélène Bourcier : La fin de la domination (masculine) : pouvoir des genres, féminismes et post-féminisme queer - - L'objet de notre article est de revenir sur la critique formulée par le post-féminisme queer, de l'utilisation du paradigme de la ³ domination (masculine) ² faite, aussi bien par Bourdieu que par les courants féministes re-naturalisants,. Il s¹agit également et d'évoquer différentes stratégies queer, de sortie de ce paradigme , et de voir comment il est possible de résister au système sexe/genre dominant. Une vision réductrice du pouvoir des genres va souvent de pair avec une re-naturalisation des genres "masculin" et "féminin" et bride ces politiques sexuelles, que sont les féminismes. Nous mettons en évidence les limites qu'a cru pouvoir imposer Bourdieu en diffusant une description bloquée de la "domination masculine". Nous critiquons également les limites de certains courants féministes qui, en développant une vision monogenrée des oppressions de genre, ont fait de cette entrée par les genres ,une entrée unique -hégémonique pour ainsi dire- et ont , ainsi, conduit à des politiques sexuelles à l¹origine de nombreuses simplifications. et exclusions. Les stratégies proposées par le post-féminisme queer, pour contrer les effets de la confiscation renaturalisante de "la domination masculine", aussi bien que ceux de totalisation et d'unification universalisante de ces féminismes, ne sont ni révolutionnaires, ni abolitionnistes, ni dialectiques. ; elles relèvent de micro politiques modestes mais multiples, car elles prescrivent une dés-ontologisation salutaire du "sujet Femme" du féminisme.. - - The object of this article is to return to the critique formulated by queer post-feminism of the use of the paradigm of Œmale domination¹- a use made by both Bourdieu and some renaturalising currents within feminism. Equally, we look at different queer strategies to escape from this paradigm, and see how it is possible to resist the dominant sex/gender system. A reductive vision of the power of gender often goes hand in hand with a renaturalisation of Œmasculine¹ and Œfeminine¹ genders and serves as a block on the sexual politics that make up feminisms. We emphasise the limits believed to have been imposed by Bourdieu in diffusing a blocked description of Œmale domination¹. We critique equally the limits of certain feminist currents, which, by developing a monogendered vision of gender oppositions, have made of the entrance of gender, a unique entrance point- hegemonic one might say- and have, therefore led sexual politics to make numerous simplifications and exclusions. The strategies proposed by queer post-feminism, to counter the effects of the renaturalising seizure of Œmale domination¹, as well as those of totalisation and the universalising unification of those feminisms which are neither revolutionary, nor abolitionist, nor dialectical; are drawn from a modest but multiple micropolitics, and prescribe a salutary deontologisation of the Œsubject Woman¹ of feminism. Rutvica Andrijasevic et Sarah Bracke : Venir à la connaissance, venir à la politique Une réflexion sur des pratiques féministes du réseau NextGENDERation - - En partant du débat qui opposait ³la positivité de la politique² à la ³négativité de la théorie² ainsi qu¹il s¹est développé sur la liste NextGENDERation un réseau européen d' étudiants et de chercheurs en études féministes- nous recherchons les voies par lesquelles la division entre ³penser² et ²faire² est le mécanisme clé par lequel se singularise la production de connaissance tout au long des lignes de races et de genres ; comme l¹ont relevé des générations de féministes , l¹amoindrissement comme théorie du savoir des ³autres²- femmes et peuples- et la relégation de ces connaissances à la catégorie de ³description² maintiennent la division sexuelle et raciale du travail en faveur des intellectuels ( males) et blancs et au final protége les relations de domination actuelles. Nous argumentons que l¹affirmation de pratiques féministes et sans doute leur repolitisation ne sont pas suffisantes pour surmonter la négation de la théorie . Au lieu de cela nous avons un besoin urgent de nous remémorer à la lumière des interventions féministes de NextGENDERation's au forum social de Florence, des généalogies féministes , queer et antiracistes qui d¹un coté permettront l¹émergence de nouvelles subjectivités et de l¹autre l¹affermissement du féminisme comme projet oppositionnel. - - Starting from the dispute centered around Œpositivity of politics¹ and Œnegativity of theory¹, as it took place on the mailing list of the NextGENDERationa European network of students and researchers in women¹s studies ‹we investigate the ways in which the split between Œthinking¹ and Œdoing¹ is among the key mechanisms that demarcate the knowledge production along the lines of race and gender. As generations of feminists have pointed out, the dismissal of the knowledges of ŒOthers¹ women and ethnic peoples‹as theory, and the relegation of these knowledges to the category of Œdescription¹, maintains a sexual and racial division of labour in favour of white (male) intellectuals, and ultimately preserves the existing social relations of domination. We argue that the affirmation of feminist practices, and perhaps its re-politicization, cannot afford to pass through the negation of theory. Instead, we urge, in the light of NextGENDERation's feminist intervention at the European Social Forum in Florence, for a recuperation of feminist, antiracist and queer genealogies which would allow for new forms of feminist subjectivities on the one hand, and the furthering of feminisms as oppositional projects on the other. Valérie Marange : Les angles morts - - La question de la violence est l'horizon de la dégradation de la politique en police, qui touche aujourd'hui au plus intime, pour faire pièce à un péril symbolique qui concernerait langage lui-même. Mais si ce langage de la culture court bien un risque, aujourd'hui, c'est celui de la vacuité, que semble avouer le mot d'ordre de la "tolérance zéro" ou le succès du délit d'"outrage". Là où la violence manifestante devient intolérable, la violence d'emprise se multiplie. Plus banalement cette vacuité reflète une défection du réel, qui construit de l'incommensurable et vide de leur sens aussi des mots tels que ceux de différence ou d'altérité. Un devenir-femme du langage renouerait avec le réel, celui de la lutte mais peut-être plus encore celui de la résistance quotidienne, des moindres gestes qui font que la vie tient, malgré tout. - - The question of violence is the horizon of the degradation of the political on the police, which touches today on the most intimate questions, it is to thwart a symbolic peril which concerns language itself. But if this language of culture runs a risk, today, it is that of vacuity, which seems to be attested to by the order word of Œzero tolerance¹ or the success of the crime of Œoutrage¹. Where the violence of the protestor becomes intolerable, the violence of influence is multiplying. More banally, this vacuity reflects a defection of the real, constructed from the incommensurable and meaningless but also from such words as difference or alterity. A becoming-woman of language reunited with the real, that of struggle but perhaps more accurately, that of daily resistance, of the slightest gestures which ensure that, in spite of everything, life remains. MINEURE : DEVENIR-FEMME DU TRAVAIL ET DE LA POLITIQUE Judith Revel : Devenir-femme de la politique - - Penser le devenir-femme de la politique, est-ce nécessairement penser le devenir-politique des femmes ? À partir de l¹analyse des changements du paradigme du travail et de sa féminisation, il s¹agit avant tout de comprendre si les oppositions de genre ou la construction d¹identités sexuelles permettent l¹émergence de nouvelles modalités d¹agrégation politique ou si, au contraire, il s¹agit encore une fois de déjouer des mécanismes disciplinaires. La déconstruction des processus de fixation identitaire est sans doute le prix d¹une véritable politique des multitudes, et c¹est précisément en cela que la parole des femmes est précieuses : peut-être parce qu¹elles nous racontent que la différenciation à l¹infini et le devenir-autre ont arraché la génération à sa réduction biologique et rendue possible une ontologie politique de la création - - In order to think the becoming-political of women is it also necessary to think the becoming-woman of politics? It is clear that an analysis of changes in the paradigm of work and its feminisation, is above all else to understand if gender oppositions or the construction of sexual identities permits the emergence of new modalities of political aggregation or if, on the contrary, it is once again a question of thwarting disciplinary mechanisms. The deconstruction of the processes by which identity becomes fixed is without doubt the price of a veritable politics of the multitude, and it is precisely here that women¹s voices are precious: perhaps because they tell us that differentiation to the infinite and becoming-other have dragged generation down to its biological reduction and made possible a political ontology of creation. Anne Querrien : Femmes, Multitude et Propriété - - Plus le travail industriel vise la consommation, plus il devient service et communication, plus il imite mécaniquement des savoirs-faire féminins. Le capital devient avec l'aide de l'Etat le seul prédateur légitime. L'homme est pris dans un devenir-femme. Les femmes sur-travaillent à rendre ce devenir vivant. Elles produisent une individualisation toujours plus fine, une multitude de propriétés immatérielles sophistiquées. - - The more that industrial work is directed at consumption, the more it becomes service and communication, the more it mechanically imitates feminine knowledge. Capital becomes, with the aid of the State, the only legitimate predator. Man is bound up a becoming-woman. Women overwork to give this becoming life. They produce an ever more precise individualisation, a sophisticated multitude of immaterial properties. Sara Ongaro : De la reproduction productive à la production reproductive - - Ce texte décrit les changements qui ont affecté le champ de la reproduction à l¹ère de la ³ mondialisation ², afin de l¹insérer dans le mécanisme de reproduction du capital : la fameuse ³ mise au travail de la vie. ² Ce qui a des conséquences sur les rôles assignés aux femmes, et ouvre également un espace à de nouvelles hiérarchisations entre femmes du Nord et du Sud. L¹auteure parle de son propre parcours vers la politique comme pratique du changement, où la collaboration entre femmes de cultures diverses se révèle essentiel, le champ de la consommation et du style de vie devenant de plus en plus celui où se joue aujourd¹hui le conflit avec le capital. Limite, dépendance, autonomie, liberté : il s¹agit de repenser ces notions appartenant à un modèle culturel dont nous apercevons aujourd¹hui les effets destructeurs. - - This text describes the changes affecting the field of reproduction in the era of Œglobalisation¹, ultimately to insert the famous Œputting life to work¹ into the mechanism of the reproduction of capital. We show the consequences this has on the roles assigned to women, and equally how it opens a space for new hierarchies between women in the Northern and Southern hemispheres. The author speaks of her own journey through politics as a practice of change, where the collaboration between women of diverse cultures reveals itself to be essential, the fields of consumption and lifestyle becoming more and more those where the conflict with capital is played out. It becomes a question of locating such concepts as limit, dependence, autonomy, and liberty, firmly in the cultural model whose destructive effects are becoming so evident today. Autoenquêtes en Italie Et toi, quel est ton genre ? Les Betty, intellectuelles précaires, partageant un désir militant, critiques tant vis-à-vis des groupes féministes historiques, que des pratiques politiques au sein du mouvement des mouvements, nous racontent leur création d'un espace, le "sexishock" au c¦ur même d'un centre social à Bologne. And what gender are you ? The Bettys, freelance intellectuals who share a militant desire and are equally critical of historic feminist groups and the the political practices, recount their creation of a space, the ³ Sexishock ², at the very heart of a social projects centre in Bologna Notre jeu et nos travaux Jeunes, elles aussi engagées dans le mouvement des centres sociaux, les Shesquat de Milan, nous révèlent, à travers leur invention d'un jeu, les sorties possibles tant du renferment égoïste sur soi que du renferment dans la logique identitaire du groupe, et elles pensent de nouvelles formes de solidarité dans le travail à travers la coopération invisible. Our game and our work The Shesquat of Milano are young women who are also involved in the social centres movement. They seek to illustrate, through their invention of a game, possible ways out of egotistical self-enclosures as well as the enclosure in the identity-logic of the group. In addition, they imagine new forms of solidarity in labor, through invisible cooperation. Journal de bord Groupe de filles plutôt liées aux expériences du cyberféminisme, les A/Matrix reconstruisent à travers une auto-enquête sous la forme d'un journal de bord, leur construction de "pages" de résistance, comme processus de construction de formes de vie, et qui font de la vie ce dont elles visent à se réapproprier. Log book The A/Matrix is a group of young women closely tied to the experiences of cyberfeminism. By means of a self-inquiry in the form of a log book, they recount their construction of ³ pages ² of resistance, as a process of construction of forms of life, thereby making life into that which they seek to appropriate. S'émanciper du travail Précaires en CoCoCo, leur employeur ? Pour la plupart les institutions européennes. Leur travail : travail social, souvent lié aux questions des femmes. Le groupe Sconvegno à travers l'auto enquête parvient à envisager la sortie de l'émancipation par le travail : s'émanciper du travail. Liberating oneself from work Employed with short-term contracts as social workers focusing on women, mainly in European institutions, the ³ Sconvegno ² group uses self-inquiries as a way of imagining the way out of emancipation by work : emancipating oneself from work. Journalistes ou vendeuse de journaux ? Journalistes dans le premier groupe éditorial italien RCS, le collectif de femmes qui a conduit une bataille contre et pour la sortie du syndicat des journalistes lors de la restructuration du groupe, s'interroge sur la transformation de la nature du travail intellectuel, sur les relations de pouvoir, sur ce que cela peut vouloir dire "agir politiquement en tant que femmes" Journalists or newspaper sellers? A collective of women journalists in the leading Italian editorial group RCS, who have fought both for and against the union, during the restructuring of the group, wonder about the transformation of the nature of intellectual labor, power relations, and what it means to ³ act politically as women ². INSERT ACT UP : laboratoire des devenirs minoritaires. Entretien - - Etre minoritaire dans un mouvement minoritaire. Etre femme hétérosexuelle séropositive ou séronégative, être lesbienne au sein d'un mouvement à l'identité forte :"homosexuel séropositif". La question de l'affirmation d'une voix des femmes est posée. Cette enquête au sein de Act Up Paris traverse les problématiques des identités multiples, des déconstructions identitaires, des devenirs minoritaires mais dans le contexte d'un combat commun pour la vie, pour affirmer la puissance de la vie contre tout discours et représentation des femmes et des malades de sida comme des victimes. - - To be a minority within a monority movement, a heterosexual, HIV positive or negative, or lesbian woman within an identity movement, namely that of HIV positive homosexuals, poses the question of a women's voice. This inquiry, from within Act Up Paris, traverses the problematics of multiple identities, indentitary deconstructions and the emergence of minorities, but within the context of a common struggle for life, for the affirmation of the power of life against any representation of women and those with Aids as victims. HORS-CHAMPS Frédéric Keck : Des biotechnologies au biopouvoir, de la bioéthique aux biopolitiques - - Cet article propose une réflexion sur la notion de biopouvoir à partir de l'ouvrage de Paul Rabinow, ³ Le déchiffrage du génome. ² Cet ouvrage propose en effet une analyse des rapports entre biotechnologies et bioéthique en France à partir de la notion de biopouvoir élaborée par Foucault. On peut retenir de cette articulation deux thèses: les biotechnologies pluralisent le biopouvoir et le portent à la limite de lui-même vers des êtres qui se situent à la limite de la vie, la bioéthique échoue à constituer une biopolitique parce qu'elle est un discours de sacralisation et non un discours de résistance. Par-delà ces deux thèses, il s'agit de relier la notion de Biopouvoir aux transformations récentes dans les sciences de la vie. - - This article reflects upon the notion of biopower deriving from Paul Rabinow¹s work, ŒThe Decoding of the Genome¹. This book undertakes an analysis of the relations between biotechnologies and bioethics in France informed by Foucault¹s concept of biopower. We can retain two theses from this account: biotechnologies pluralise biopower and take it to the limit towards beings situated at the limits of life; bioethics fails to constitute a biopolitics because it is a discourse of sacralisation and not one of resistance. Beyond these two theses, we must apply the concept of biopower to recent transformations in the sciences of life.

Well, not too many mails on one day or they go into the context eliminating saussage machine. Yesterday, I modified an extremly simple cgi shellscript of a german university for mp3s into a divx content management system, sort of, which sits at: http://intra.b.lab.net/cgi-bin/uzs106/test/playavi you shouldnt expect lage dor or whatever, just some very short clips to explain what it is about. Well, it is about the well known mpeg video playlist game, you should have mplayer installed, and it is about mplayer http://bla/divx.avi streams. http streams are "worse" than rtsp streams, you dont have the timeline, it is bad if you have 1 million viewers at the same time, but who cares? >From a viewers perspective the lack of the timeline, you cant move forward, backward, is maybe the worst with http. But see it this way: it is the same as in yesterdays cinema, you see a movie from the beginning to the end, and this is still the best.

Can you let me know if this is acceptable? Thank you Regards Rowan Wilson NEW BOOK > Time for Revolution > ANTONIO NEGRI Translated and Introduced by Matteo Mandarini > "> We discover here another Negri, a Negri deeply immersed in a philosophical, even a theological problematic. This book is a MUST: it provides the proper background for Negri's widely circulated analysis of the global capitalist Empire.> "> > Slavoj Zizek > > "'Time for Revolution' constitutes a major philosophical statement by one of the most important thinkers of our time." > Fredric Jameson > > The two key essays by Antonio Negri brought together here for the first time were written in prison two decades apart. 'Time for Revolution' illuminates the course of Negri's thinking from the 1980s to 'Empire' and beyond. > 'Time for Revolution' reflects Negri's abiding interest in the philosophy of time and resistance. The first essay is a central work in Negri's oeuvre, tracing the fracture lines which force capitalist society into perpetual crisis. The second essay, written immediately after the global best-seller, 'Empire', provides a conceptual toolbox, deepening our understanding of the two key concepts of empire and multitude. > 'Time for Revolution' explores the burning issue of our times: is there still a place for resistance in a society utterly subsumed by capitalism? > > Antonio Negri is one of the most significant figures in contemporary political thought. He is the author of several works including 'The Savage Anomaly', 'Labor of Dionysus' (co-authored with Michael Hardt), 'Insurgencies', and most recently, 'Empire', written with Michael Hardt. > > Matteo Mandarini, the translator of Time for Revolution, completed a PhD on the ontology of time in Marx and Deleuze, and is now an independent researcher, currently working on a study of Antonio Negri's work. > > Hardback 0 8264 5931 5 £16.99 304pp February 2003 > > > CONTENTS > > Translator's Introduction & Acknowledgements > > Time for Revolution 1: The Constitution of Time > > Preamble > I.

Inside Laboratory Italy The political and social struggles in Italy in the recent years have been a source of innovation and inspiration for political and social struggles globally. With the hype around Negri and Hardt's Empire, based on the rich tradition of revolutionary thought and action in Italy, we are witnessing how this tradition is being mediated within cultural institutions and is synchronously being detached from the struggles from which it originates. We have invited an Italian comrade from Wu Ming Collective and the Luther Blissett Project to give an account of the experiences, activities and thoughts still unfolding in the material struggles of the Italian everyday. Infopool No. 7 includes: WHY NOT SHOW OFF ABOUT THE BEST THINGS? - - A Few Quick Notes on Social Conflict in Italy and the Metaphors used to describe It by Wu Ming 1 Introduction to ENEMIES OF THE STATE - - Criminals, "Monsters" and Special Legislation in the Society of Control by the Luther Blissett Project Appendix: TUTE BIANCHE - - The Practical Side of Myth Making (in Catastrophic Times) by Wu Ming 1 The booklet is available for £3 from Housemans, Caledonian Road, London and from the CFU Micro Bookshop, Copenhagen and the texts are available online at <http://www.infopool.org.uk>www.infopool.org.uk. A launch party will take place beneath Black Friars Bridge - Northside sometimes in spring 2003 when the Wu Ming Collective visit London.

"Copy Culture." The present title takes its theme from the propensity we had at the time to lionize the act of duplication, seeing in it various metaphors ranging from the biological to the cultural. In support of this theme, Ralph Johnson and Chris Glomski offer their significant contribution, in the form of a small booklet or journal, which they called "The Recombinist", taking as its stance that of pastiche, and as its substance, recombinant texts made up of fragments of previously "finished" texts they found. (It should be noted that these writings helped to clarify the mission of The Tape-beatles during the making of their most popular work Music with Sound, released the following year.) Also appearing is a major interview with Karen Elliot concerning the Art Strike 1990-1993 conducted by Scott MacLeod. Editor Lloyd Dunn submits for your approval a series of full-page collages, and Piotr Szyhalski, then still living in Poland, provides a series of visio-verbal graphics on the theme of "Completeness". The usual corps of columnists, Miekal And, Geof Huth, Thomas Wiloch, among others, offer their insights into various and interesting cultural issues. Graphic submissions by artists such as Malok, Chris Winkler, David Dunlap, and John Stickney, to name just a few, serve to round out the issue. Contributors include. P. Petrisko, Jr., John Eberly, Chris Winkler, Hilare Moderne, Clemente Padín, David Dunlap, Arturo G. Fallico, Malok, David Powell, John Heck, John Stickney, Rupert Loydell, Pascal Uni, Christian Rigal, Miekal And, Ralph Johnson, Chris Glomski, Piotr Szyhalski, Serse Luigetti, Geof Huth, Thomas Wiloch, Luke McGuff, Thom Metzger, Joel Score, Joseph Uphoff, Jr. , Scott MacLeod, Karen Eliot, John Kennedy, Ll. Dunn, Information Achive, Bob Grumman, Ruggero Maggi Project Overview: The Photostatic Retrograde Archive serves as an electronic repository for a complete collection of PhotoStatic Magazine, PhonoStatic Cassettes, Retrofuturism, and Psrf, (as well as related titles). Issues are posted as PDF files, at more or less regular intervals, in reverse chronological order to form a chronological mirror image of the original series. When the first issue, dating from 1983, is finally posted in several year's time, then this electronic archive will be complete. issue directory: http://psrf.detritus.net/issues.html project URL: http://psrf.detritus.net/ - -- # Photostatic Magazine Retrograde Archive : http://psrf.detritus.net/ # - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - # E-mail | psrf@detritus.net - -- # Lloyd Dunn : ll@detritus.net # The Tape-beatles and Public Works Productions : http://pwp.detritus.net/ # Photostatic Magazine Retrograde Archive : http://psrf.detritus.net/ # - - - - - - - - - - - # Address | c/o Heckovi, Veltruská 531/9, Prosek, 19000 Praha-9, CZ ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 01 Mar 2003 13:55:01 +0100 From: DIAN <info@dian-network.com> Subject: DIAN Announcement for March - --------------EE23393C2B97288959A79A0A Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1; x-mac-type="54455854"; x-mac-creator="4D4F5353" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit DIAN - Digital Interactive Artists' Network [Image] http://dian-network.com March: DIAN - Digital Interactive Artists' Network - Our focus for the month of March is ED BURTON. We proudly present his work: "Sodaplay" http://dian-network.com/navigation.html Sodaplay describes itself as the home of creative play; it’s all about the fun that comes from playing with creativity. The first sodaplay toy, sodaconstructor, is an engaging online construction kit that gives visitors the ability to build interactive creations from a sparse framework of limbs and muscles. By altering physical properties like gravity, friction and speed, curiously anthropomorphic models can be made to walk, climb, wriggle, jiggle or alternatively collapse into a writhing heap. Sodaconstructor exploded across the internet in a wave of spontaneous e-mail communication and web postings in the summer of 2000 creating a massive growth of unusually dedicated users in a phenomenon known as viral marketing. Since then a large and active worldwide community of sodaplayers have been creating their own sodaconstructions which now populate the sodazoo with a bourgeoning menagerie of models that are stranger and more diverse than soda ever imagined possible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DIAN - Digital Interactive Artists' Network - is a network for artists who are seriously involved in using Internet technology in the domain of contemporary art.
