NYC0902 relates to the seemingly unending conflict as a war of the rich for power and capital and a war of the poor for equal rights, freedom of belief and stable economics. it is a piece produced as a consequence of NYC9202 which was created in the beginning of 2002 when the shock occuring from the desctruction of the world trade center and all its implications was still vividly alive. NYC0902 is a direct transformation of the piece produced then referring to actual sensual experiences relating to the state of our world one year after the catastrophy. too many truths are still the same. the ongoing war between the U.S. and the muslim world / recession / and environmental catastrophies have transformed everybody's life in the western world. images of poverty and suffering, of war and hunger cannot be erased from anybody's mind. daily life is not the same any more. kanonmedia.com cannot believe in warfare but definitely believes in peaceful solutions and equal human rights for everybody and every culture. go on NYC0902 <http://www.kanonmedia.com/portfolio/nyc0902.htm> - ------------------------------------- kanonmedia.com non - profit org for new media amadeus house, 99_48, mariahilfer st. a-1060 vienna t: ++43 - 1 - 920 70 03 mailto: office@kanonmedia.com visit: http://www.kanonmedia.com - ------------------------------------- sorry for cross-postings. for unsubscribing from our newsletter just click reply and say unsubscribe in the subject field. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2002 20:50:20 -0700 (PDT) From: Amy Alexander <plagiari@plagiarist.org> Subject: Plagiarist Fun Fall PR Project PR!

The lecture was part of the ongoing series of Skiften/The Shift Project. The 4th of July I sat down with him for an interview concerning The Language of New Media and his other writing.

On June 1, 2001, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said "Linux is a cancer that attaches itself in an intellectual property sense to everything it touches." Microsoft fears GNU/Linux, and rightly so. GNU/Linux and the Open Source & Free Software movements arguably represent the greatest threat to Microsoft's way of life. Shot in cinemascope on 35mm film in Silicon Valley, REVOLUTION OS tracks down the key movers and shakers behind Linux, and finds out how and why Linux became such a potent threat. REVOLUTION OS features interviews with Linus Torvalds, Richard Stallman, Bruce Perens, Eric Raymond, Brian Behlendorf, Michael Tiemann, Larry Augustin, Frank Hecker, and Rob Malda. To view the trailer or the first eight minutes go to the ifilm website for REVOLUTION OS. Companies such as Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Ogilvy & Mather, OSDN, and Dreamworks Animation have rented REVOLUTON OS for private theatrical screenings. It has also screened in numerous film festivals including South By Southwest Film Festival, the Atlanta Film & Video Festival, Boston Film Festival, and Denver International Film Festival. REVOLUTION OS won Best Documentary at both the Savannah Film & Video Festival and the Kudzu Film Festival. REVOLUTION OS is available in the 35 mm motion picture format and runs 85 minutes. http://www.wired.com/news/print/0,1294,54837,00.html Linux: The Revolution on Film By Steve Kettmann 2:00 a.m. Sep. 2, 2002 PDT It's a little hard to imagine an über-geek like Linus Torvalds getting the full-on rock-star treatment and having to urge an exuberant crowd to settle down, but that was just what happened at the LinuxWorld trade show in August 1999. "Calm down, calm down," Torvalds said, looking more like a Helsinki bus driver just back from a satisfying ski vacation than a Finnish programmer famous for writing the Linux kernel. Given the importance of Linux and the open-source movement, the moment is priceless. It and other glimpses of Torvalds are enough to make the documentary film Revolution OS essential viewing for anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of the people and ideas behind the open-source movement. "I called it Linux originally as a working name," Torvalds says. "I initially thought I couldn't call it Linux in public because that was just too egotistical, and that was before I had a big ego." Torvalds is clearly the star, even when he's not on camera. That's fitting, too, for the single most important figure behind an operating system with a cultish following -- one that has inspired such wacky events as Linux beer hikes in Bavaria, England's Lake District, Belgium and -- this week -- in County Clare, Ireland. There's plenty here for the serious Penguin-head, of course, but also a thorough, useful primer for those with less background, starting with the basics. One memorable scene has Torvalds explaining how to pronounce his first name and that of his famous operating system: In Swedish and Finnish, his name comes out sounding like Leee-nooos. In English, it's pronounced like that of the thumb-sucking "Peanuts" character with the security blanket. The operating system, he says, is always pronounced with the first syllable rhyming with "in" -- although, in fact, many in Europe -- where the OS was born -- say it with a long vowel. J.T.S. Moore, the USC film-school grad who directed, wrote, produced, shot and edited the film, started on the project in 1999 and took the approach of "an outsider looking in," he explains at the film website. The more he worked, the more he grew interested in the philosophical underpinnings of the open-source movement, as embodied by GNU founder Richard Stallman. "Think of Richard Stallman as the great philosopher, and think of me as the engineer," Torvalds said. But elsewhere in the film, Torvalds somewhat rudely dismisses Stallman's contention -- supported by neutral third parties -- that the system ought to be called the GNU/Linux operating system, since it was Stallman's GNU project, begun long before Torvalds wrote the Linux kernel, that made the whole thing possible. Moore deserves respect for providing this invaluable record. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 7 Sep 2002 16:33:54 +0200 From: "bobig" <bobig@bobig.com> Subject: free art for all !!

In some cases, = they are only together for a brief period of time, and in others they = stay together for a lifetime. Some of these teams have made their mark = on art history by way of photography, as is the case with Bernd & Hilla = Becher and Gilbert & George. Indeed, there are more artists who have = opted to create in teams, and the areas of photography, video and film = are those most often chosen by teams to develop their work.=20 In this issue, we will present some of them, with special attention to = the work of Anna & Bernhard Blume, a now classic German photographer = couple, whose work does not belong to any movement or follow any trends. = The issue also features the work of Jane and Louise Wilson (commentary = by Barry Schwabsky), Pierre et Gilles (Jos=E9 Miguel G.

Rosa Olivares' editorial and the customary = index of artists complete this exploration of teamwork.

We proudly present her work: "Crankbunny Full Installment One: Maquette" http://dian-network.com/navigation.html Crankbunny is an internet/video project started to explore the nature and future narrative structures, mostly non-linear storytelling. The stories are structured around a progressive epic tale about the future. A hazy future where cyborg-humans live in cities abandoned ? weird organic urban landscapes mixed with sci-fi imploded techno. The human evolution of emotion and constant interaction of technology - the machine - is the theme. The "machine" is a quality that is enveloping all of us more and more as we become part of the future.
