BoschUniverse was chosen as best European multimedia production in the category ŒOverall Europrix 2001¹ and was also first in the category ŒKnowledge, Discovery and Culture¹. The Europrix is an annual prize awarded to progressive multimedia producers and designers in order to acknowledge and generate attention for projects that offer practical added value to visitors. In the overall contest Europrix 2001 the EuroPrix Jury selected 29 nominees. The 29 nominees were divided over 7 categories. In the category ŒKnowledge, Discovery and Culture¹ in specific 5 projects were nominated. >From the jury evaluation: This virtual version is far more interactive than a normal exhibition could ever be. During the exploration of the website visitors can zoom in on the many bizarre details so characteristic to Bosch, open and close triptychs, turn panels, and even play different educational games based around his work. In all, the site instills the feeling to the viewer, that they have physically stepped into the world of Jheronimus Bosch. The Adventure Game is really challenging for both children and adults. BoschUniverse is a meritorious and user friendly attempt at proving cultural and, mainly, visual content can go online and retain its exciting entertainment and educational qualities for a world audience. Context: The Jheronimus Bosch web project is set up as part of the major exhibition (1 September 11 November 2001) in the Boymans Van Beuningen Museum in Rotterdam. The website aims to worldwide open up the oeuvre of the celebrated painter Jheronimus Bosch (ca. 1450-1516) for different target groups. Additional to the general information on the work and life of Bosch, on the website (created by ZaPPWeRK) a spectacular ŒJheronimus Bosch Adventure Game¹ is featured, which has been developed by V2_Lab in co-operation with Ra.nj. digital entertainment b.v.. Collaboration: The website www.boschuniverse.com is the result of a close collaboration between the Museum Boymans Van Beuningen Rotterdam, ZaPPWeRK, Ra.nj digital entertainment b.v. and V2_Lab-International Lab for the Unstable Media. The website¹s design is by ZaPPWeRK. The Jheronimus Bosch Adventure Game is by V2_Lab (design & production) and Ra.nj digital entertainment b.v. (concept & scenario). Overall co-ordination is done by Museum Boymans Van Beuningen Rotterdam. Main sponsors: ABN AMRO Bank, KPN, Unilever BoschUniverse can be found on http://www.boschuniverse.com More background information about the game can be found on: http://www.v2.nl/v2_lab More background information about EuroPrix can be found on: http://www.europrix.org Note for the editors (not for publication): For additional images, interview applications and/or more background information please contact: V2_Organisatie Marije Stijkel Eendrachtsstraat 10 3012 XL Rotterdam +31 (0)10 206 72 72 marije@v2.nl ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 Dec 2001 15:19:07 +0100 From: domiziana <domiziana@nexus.it> Subject: Fwd: [spectre] project hope - invitation - call for works >X-POP3-Rcpt: domiziana@corelli >Delivered-To: spectre@mikrolisten.de >From: Reiner Strasser <reiner.s@netartefact.de> >To: <webartery@yahoogroups.com>, spectre <spectre@mikrolisten.de>, > wr-eye-tings <wr-eye-tings@cedar.miyazaki-mu.ac.jp> >Subject: [spectre] project hope - invitation - call for works >Sender: spectre-admin@mikrolisten.de >X-BeenThere: spectre@mikrolisten.de >X-Mailman-Version: 2.0.7 >List-Help: <mailto:spectre-request@mikrolisten.de?subject=help> >List-Post: <mailto:spectre@mikrolisten.de> >List-Subscribe: <http://post.openoffice.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/spectre>, > <mailto:spectre-request@mikrolisten.de?subject=subscribe> >List-Id: SPECTRE mailing list for media art and culture in Europe. ><spectre.mikrolisten.de> >List-Unsubscribe: ><http://post.openoffice.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/spectre>, > <mailto:spectre-request@mikrolisten.de?subject=unsubscribe> >List-Archive: <http://post.openoffice.de/pipermail/spectre/> >Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2001 15:11:36 +0100 > >project hope - call for (new media, net art, cyberpoetry) works >::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: > >collecting[reflecting]spreading hope >. >cumulating (positive) energy >. >esprit >. >light >. >balance >. >"chi" >. >hope >. >. >. >hope@nonfinito.de > > >In these dark times, we are finding people in pain, people suicidal, people >sick with worry, people with the threatening dark sky;

'work' - Edited by Axel Bruns & Greg Hearn Invested capital demands growth. Growth is possible through the expansion of markets or through finding new products to sell, that is, by creating new markets. Thus, we have seen, over the last one hundred years, the commodification of more and more aspects of human life. However, what superficially looks like an ever increasing array of different products turns out to be, in essence, the commodification of just one human need, that is, the need for identity. Awareness of mind engenders the 'I/me' split. The 'I' is a knower, the 'me' is the known. The stuff that the 'me' is made of is discursive in nature. Stories are therefore the industrial engines of the identity economy and they are deployed all around us in print, in media, at work. As well they are encoded into material artifacts or into the social practices which are enacted via our access to identity services (be it travel, media, or latte). Perhaps these questions aren't even as recent as they appear to be. Most of us now work in the identity economy and indeed work out our identity in the process of helping others commodify theirs. Consider the following advertisement for Compaq computers. "A whole new Compaq what's in it for me and me and me and me and me and me... a lot. We're here to help you get the most out of computing, whether you use one PC or run a vast global enterprise network". Current deflation aside, the Internet may turn out to be the ultimate domain for commodification of human identity. Not only is any desire available to be vicariously satisfied at any time of the day (thus extending the market in time) but the domain of desire is global in its reach, thus rendering possible the vicarious experience of omniscience also. As the recent add for the Iridium network proclaimed, "Welcome to your new office, it measures 510,228,030 square kilometers" omniscience in a packet. The contributors to this issue of M/C dissect the work of identity in various ways: "Memory-Work: The Labourers of Social Memory within Capitalist Media" Patricia Leavy investigates how common identities, shared by people within the same subcultures or national societies as such, are strengthened and maintained to a significant degree through shared, collective memories, which require unconscious work. "The Work of Consumption: Why Aren't We Paid?" In our feature article for this issue, Lelia Green describes identity construction as a major consumer project using raw materials provided by the mass media, but one which remains considered a voluntary activity. "That Obstinate Yet Elastic Natural Barrier: Work and the Figure of Man in Capitalism" Warwick Mules aims to open out Marx a little by investigating the changed nature of the worker in early twenty-first century capitalism. The increasing interest in shares and stocks is only one sign of the fact that workers now invest in their own lives and in the process become 'dividualised', motivated by a desire to become their future selves. "Media Is Driving Work: Broadcast, New Media and Stressed Leisure" Frederick Wasser examines this point further by problematising the division between work and free leisure, especially in the light of convergent new media technologies which are used for both in equal measure. Does the quality of our leisure time suffer as the opportunity, perhaps the reminder, to do some more work remains ever-present? "Work and Masculine Identity in Kevin Smith's New Jersey Trilogy" Andrew M. Butler looks at the effects of being a 'slacker' on one's own masculine identity. Characters in Clerks, Mallrats and Chasing Amy appear to find it hard to escape from capitalist ideology, from the societal imperative to work: the man without work is cast adrift, still in search of an identity. "The Promotion of a Secular Work Ethic" Sharon Beder traces the history of work ethics beyond the protestant emphasis on work as a religious calling, through a study of selected self- help texts and children's books of the time. "Corporatising Character: Turning the Heart into Corporate Capital" Caroline Hatcher notes that beyond the hokey new-age exercises which have been thrust upon workforces in the last decades, staff motivation does constitute a crucial factor in commercial success and effectiveness, and so emotion, and passion, as heightened emotion, have come to play a newly understood role in our work lives. "Women and Work: Gender Disparity in Australian Universities" Jennifer Ellis-Newman investigates gender disparities in Australian universities, and finds subtle processes that continue to operate in some higher education institutions to prevent women from reaching their full potential as academics, because of their perceived identity as women first, and academics second. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - M/C - A Journal of Media and Culture <http://www.media-culture.org.au/> Call for Contributors The University of Queensland's award-winning journal of media and culture, M/C, is looking for new contributors.

We are now accepting submissions for the following issue: 'fear' - article deadline: 21 January 2002 issue editor: Angi Buettner As Brian Massumi pointed out in The Politics of Everyday Fear, there is nothing new about the fact that "fear is a staple of popular culture and politics". This was in 1993 and today "fear" is no less pervasive as a global cultural commodity. For a privileged group of people "fear" is something that can be purchased and actively sought out "for fun"; in horror films, extreme sports, or travel to "the world's most dangerous places", equipped with the notorious Worst Case Scenario Handbook. Yet, for numberless people "fear" is not something to be consumed but a life- threatening reality imposed on them. The new virility and magnitude of recent terrorist attacks and acts of war since September 11 re-ignited the awareness of the material and political dimensions of "fear". Fear is a forceful tool for exercising power – used on both sides of oppositional power relations. Certain dialectic configurations immediately come to mind, such as fear and nation-states or fear and capitalism. Human history is replete with fears of various manifestations. Fear of witches, gay people, women, racial or ethnic "others", as well as fear of natural disasters or the invisible germs of biological warfare or terrorism are but a few examples of scares throughout the times. The disconcerting immigration politics currently discussed in Geneva at the UN Commission for Refugees (initiated by the Australian immigration minister Phillip Ruddock) are only one of the most recent political effects of "fear". What are the fears and their materializations, and how are they mobilised in ways that constitute our contemporary cultural and political landscape? What kind of thing is this globally circulating figure and reality, and is its flow different from other forms of cultural commodities? And, not to forget, what role do the mass media play in this? We welcome contributions on these or any other questions you can think of. issue release date: 13 February 2002 Further issue topics for 2002: 'urban' (deadline 11 Mar. / release 10 Apr.)

Common software packages are instrumental in shaping all aspects of the new-media experience: they define data objects, producers and users alike. But the interfaces of software, comprised of menus, windows and palettes; their nomenclature, bringing such theatrical elements as stage, cast and score to multimedia; and underlying actions, that render video and layer digital images, together compose a realm that is heavily programmed. From the iconic to the algorithmic level, regular upgrades also announce a host of new and apparently indispensable features, but the question is if this increased wealth of streamlined appearances and encoded commands gradually serves to impoverish the new-media experience with subtle yet effective biases. This special issue of Afterimage wishes to address the changing face of the culturally determined interface by critically focusing on the design and functions of software applications. Contributions may cover some of the following ground: 1. A brief genealogy of the application in relation to historical techniques and technologies, including a truncated history of its development (a few highlights from the release notes). 2. A critical assessment of the graphical user interface, including its structure and organization, the choice of words in menus and windows and the icons used to render the desktop. 3. A critical treatment of the actions/algorithms performed by the application, including the relations between available commands and the structure of the new-media object and the role of automation in the user¹s formulation of this object. The aim is to discuss software in relation to the appearance, production and consumption of new media, a task that will implicitly also involve a reassessment of histories, categories and practices associated with photography, film and video, as well as, to take only one example, the role of the archive in an age devoted to databases. Contributors should ideally have an informed, working knowledge of the software they would like to cover and excellent writing skills. The areas of interest have been divided into 10 categories (one or two applications will be selected from each grouping) and they are forwarded with the disclaimer that numerical representation and transcoding have arguably made them obsolete: 1. Operating systems Mac OS X, Windows XP 2. Photography/Image Photoshop 6.0, Photoshop Elements 3. Film/Video Final Cut Pro 2.0, Adobe Premiere 6.0, Adobe After Effects 5.0, Media 100, Maya 3.5 (for Mac OS X) 4. Network/Internet Internet Explorer 5.0, Netscape Navigator 6.0 5. Archive/Database Filemaker Pro 5.5, may include Server, Developer and Mobile versions of the same 6. Print/Screen publication Quark Xpress 4.1 (pending 5.0), Adobe InDesign 1.5 (pending 2.0), Adobe Acrobat 5.0 7. Multimedia presentations (CD-ROM, Kiosk or Web delivery) Macromedia Director 8.0 or 8.5, Macromedia Flash 5.0 8. Vector-based illustration Adobe Illustrator 10, Macromedia Freehand 10 9. Word processing/Code authoring Microsoft Word 2001 (or Office suite), Microsoft Word v.X (or Office suite), BBEdit 6.5, CodeWarrior 7.0, RealBasic 3.5. WYSIWYG: Dreamweaver 4.0, GoLive 5.0 10. Sound Macromedia SoundEdit 16, or similar (preferably aimed at soundtrack authoring) Note: Many 3D packages fall within the categories outlined above and they may also be considered. Please contact the editor, Are Flagan, areflagan@mac.com, with a choice, a brief bio (attach writing samples) and a short proposal if you would like to contribute. Other less Mac-friendly choices than the selection above will of course be considered. We do not publish articles previously printed or posted elsewhere. The special issue is due for publication in May 2002 and the deadline for contributions is March 1 2002. Further information is available upon request.
