Subject: Toshio Iwai in NY

This is a mail being sent to selected friends. The official press release
will be issued by Carolyn Bane of PS1. <press@ps1.org>

Toshio Iwai, recipient of the 1997 Ars Electronica Golden Nica, the 2000 ID
Magazine Interactive Media Design Review, whose first works in America were
two installations in the permanent collection of the Exploratorium in San
Francisco, will hold his first major American museum showing at PS1/MoMA in
Queens from this Friday August 31st, 2001 until September 9th.

Here are two sneak preview URLs of the two pieces that he'll be showing.

http://www2.gol.com/users/iwai/PS1data/SOUND-LENS.html

Sound lens is a machine which converts light into sound. There will be a
walkthrough maze of different light/sound concepts installed in the gallery.

We are also planning some sight-listening tours in Manhattan with the artist
and a few individuals, using the sound lens. Please contact me for
information. 

http://www2.gol.com/users/iwai/PS1data/AnotherTime.html

Another Time Another Space is an older work of Iwai's (1993) which reflects
his interest in pre-cinematic moving image techniques applied to modern
technology. It is a contagiously fun piece, often staged in large public
places.  

Iwai's bio is here:
http://www2.gol.com/users/iwai/PS1data/index.html

Iwai's solo show is the final of a series of shows within "Buzz Club," an
overview of how media culture meets street culture in contemporary Japan.
Here are some other usefull URLs for Buzz Club:

http://www.shift.jp.org/world/047/nyc.shtml
http://www.ps1.org/cut/buzz/buzz.html

Hope to see you at PS1!
Saturday the 2nd is recommended for the additional DJ, dance and other
activities. 
If you'd like to relax and see the work at your leisure, weekdays are
probably better. 

Yours, 

David d'Heilly, co-curator, Buzz Club

Subject: Design Call - WOOMERA2002 - Deadline Sep 3rd midnite

(please feel free to forward - thanx)

DESIGN TASK #1: LOGO for WOOMERA 2002
- ---------------------------------------------------------------

Deadline: Sept 3rd - Midnight [australian EST]

This call is for designers to come up with a logo or graphic which symbolises the planned journey to Woomera in 2002, which is currently being planned by a small collective.

The logo/graphic should be empowering and communicate active action opposing detention centres, missiles, nuclear weapons, toxic waste and supporting indiginous land rights, no borders and diversity...

The logo/graphic should be positive and should connect with people who are not necessarily activists - but are concerned about the issues Woomera represents. 

Familiar/non-threatening imagery/iconography would be great!

The logo/graphic can be in colour but should work in black/white also. What is being asked for is someone to come up with the equivalent of the 'jabiluka - hand' (http://www.sea-us.org.au/images/icons/handsoff.gif) equivalent for Woomera 2002 :-)

The logo/graphic can have text associated with it - and the URL - www.woomera2002.com should be able to easily associated with it as well (though it does not have to be incorporated to the logo)

Here's some ideas which an image should bring out: freedom, movement, caravan, journey, diversity... 

Please send your design to sam@media.com.au for consideration by the collective. 

The deadline for contributions is September 3rd (midnight), 2001. 

Please note that if your contribution is used it is most likely that you will never receive any recognition for it.

There are no planned credits or acknowledgements and your contribution may be altered, edited, and basically changed by other designers... So, when submitting - please bare that in mind.

But we do require visual communicators, so your contribution will certainly be valued and your work will be respected.

Below is some more detail - some of more which can be found at www.woomera2002.com

Woomera is a remote town, 500 kms from Adelaide (Australia).  It is also the centre of an economy of death, suffering and incarceration founded on the dispossession of indigenous lands. 

Woomera can be represented by a concentration camp, by missiles, by nuclear weapons, by toxic waste,
by colonisation, by capitalism, by fear and division.

Woomera 2002 will be a kaleidoscope of cascading autonomous actions, media streams and screenings, workshops, discussions and happenings to disrupt the present and create the future.

Subject: webcam URLs for 7s01

keep sending those URL addresses in.

I thought what we might do is this --

so to as prevent the operators of the webcams from preemptively shutting
their cameras down before the performances can take place (this is a
distinct possibility in Minneapolis and NYC), I thought I'd wait until 5
Sept or 6 Sept until I complete this web page
http://www.notbored.org/7s01.html so that it includes all the groups, all
their locations, all the times, and all the webcam URLs.

Come sunrise 7 Sept 2001, someone could visit and see everything (or as
much as possible, given the usual constraints)

Bill

PS. remember: we're supposed to go in order, like this --

San Fran 10 am
Arizona 11 am
Minneapolis noon
NYC 1 pm

etc etc

LIVE FROM THE TUNDRA
Life back in town (an epilogue)

http://www.nunatinnit.net

Hundreds of kilometres, and a day-long boat ride across the Arctic Ocean
from the nearest phone or power lines, a group of Inuit and non-Inuit
inhabitants of a remote outpost camp on Canada¹s Baffin Island are sending
daily audio and video dispatches to the rest of the world via the Internet,
thanks to cutting-edge satellite phone and mobile computing technologies.

LIVE FROM THE TUNDRA gives internauts around the world a remarkable glimpse
into the "life on the land" that Inuit elders Vivi and Enuki Kunuk have
pursued all of their lives. Celebrating this traditional Inuit lifestyle
under the glorious arctic sun, the trilingual website (English, French,
Inuktitut) offers fresh daily content over a five-day period comprised of a
journal, photos, video and audio clips. Site visitors can also interact with
participants at the outpost camp via a chat forum.
