Subject: Call for Proposals

         Call for Participation

        International Laboratory:
            CLOSING THE LOOP


       Time's Up Research Department, AUSTRIA
            and
       European Cultural Month, Linz, AUSTRIA

      May-September 1998, Linz Hafen, Austria


Overview:

The Time's Up Research Department is issuing a call for participation in a
series of experiments to take place between May and September 1998
as a part of the program for the "European Cultural Month Linz".

The control direction from actor to device is a well-investigated one,
the development of devices to act upon the biomechanical unit
is long under way. This program of experimentation is aimed at
the loop--closing properties inherent in the mutual development of these
two
directions. Hence the title,  Closing the Loop.

This call is open to Biomechanics, Pseudo- and Popular Scientists,
Artistes and Artists, Perceptual Engineers and other interested parties.
The call is being made very widely, and aims to attract a variety of
proposals that incorporate a range of tools and methodologies.

Publication:
It is intended that papers of both the invited and  contributed
experiments will be published after the conclusion of the series,
and will be made available to participants.

Laboratory Details:
Time's Up is interested, amongst other things, in
the interplay of three elements upon the public person:
Perception, Control and Biomechanics. In the absence of
well-defined dividing lines between these elements,
almost any involvement in any of the three is an involvement
in all three. The particular configuration which is of interest
in the Laboratory is the use of biomechanical effects to
adapt or adjust perceptional parameters. These biomechanical
effects are of the personal and single-person orientation,
the perceptual effects are more to do with direct manipulation
of perceptual input rather than the construction of such input
>from nothing. The possibility of direct control of or by the
biomechanical unit is then observed and investigated. The tools
that Time's Up is bringing to bear on this Laboratory include
tools for the automated control of video and audio signals,
biologically inspired computational metaphors, simple EEG
and EMG interfaces, mathematical models and small
customised electronics. We are looking for expert and lay
knowledge on both the theoretical and practical level. Medical
technicians and practitioners, performance/body artists,
mathematicians, biologists, ethologists, musicians, programmers,
theoreticians of all stripes, engineers, sculptors and perhaps
the odd Renaissance woman. Collaboration is essential, though
monomanic specialists need not be deterred.

Details of Participation:
We envisage a number of experiments over the period of the
laboratory. We thus welcome proposals for experiments from
contributors. A contributor should be able to offer some technical
as well as informational asistance to the project, do not expect
us to be your technicians, and we do not expect you to be ours.

It is possible that some experiments will be conducted
remotely, or that a contributed experiment will be carried out
locally without further effort from the contributor.
We are flexible.

Please note that this is not a Workshop, that there is no desire nor
pressure for products to be created The results of the experiments
will be the common property of the contributor and the Time's Up
Research Department. The results should be published and become part
of the scientific literature.

Contributed Experiments with a duration of between one hour and
seven days are warmly welcomed. We are also looking for perhaps
another person or small group to invite for a longer period, for a
series of experiments over a 2-4 week period. We are looking for
suggestions; please do not hesitate or be unduly modest.

Accomodation for a few people can be provided, as well as a per
diem and transport costs where necessary or preferable.

Further Details:
See the CTL'98 conference home page at:

for more information about registering, which
includes accommodation  and facilities information
and restaurant guides for Linz.

December 15th, 1997
For Immediate Release

The Alt-X Network announces the opening of DIGITAL STUDIES: BEING IN
CYBERSPACE, an international independent network art show featuring 20
artists from 7 countries--who needs museums?

With keynote addresses by Roy Ascott and co-organizers Mark Amerika and
Alex Galloway, DIGITAL STUDIES challenges net.art surfers to investigate
exciting new artistic questions, while revealing some of the problematic
issues faced by curators, writers, artists and publishers in the age of
the telematic interface.

DIGITAL STUDIES includes material from:

Richard Allalouf
Mark Amerika
Roy Ascott
Torsten Zenas Burns
Claire Cann
Vuk Cosic
Ricardo Dominguez
Alex Galloway
Dr. Hugo
Intima
Shelley Jackson
Tina LaPorta
Lev Manovich
Juliet Ann Martin
Jennifer Bozick McCoy
Kevin McCoy
Knut Mork
Poem by Nari
Melinda Rackham
Erwin Redl
Nino Rodriguez
La Societe Anonyme
Jeff Zilm

Why should 'art' still designate that which already breaks away from
art--away from what has always been conceived and signified under that
name--or that which, not merely escaping art, implacably destroys it?

The work featured here asks this important question by creating formally
innovative hypertext narratives, language-morph java applets,
transdisciplinary shockwave animations, and image+text "digital
apparitions" where the author/artist function has transformed into what
Vilem Flusser called a "dense distribution of point elements."
