     02.06.-26.08.2001

+++ Die Genferin Sylvie Fleury ist bekannt für ihre Inszenierungen des Glamour der Mode sowie der Luxusartikel der modernen Warenwelt. Wirken ihre Werke auf den ersten Blick wie eine deutliche Bestätigung der Wertmaßstäbe der Konsumgesellschaft, so leistet Fleury jedoch immer eine subtile Kommentierung des schönen Scheins.
Die Auswahl der über 60 präsentierten Arbeiten umfaßt neben einigen Klassikern aus den 90er Jahren im wesentlichen Werke der letzten zwei Jahre, u.a. raumbezogene Ensembles, die eigens für das Museum für Neue Kunst | ZKM entworfen wurden.

Subject: Your Group/Org/Collective Listed in Rogue States

Hi,

We are putting together a Contacts Directory for active/progressive media-cultural organisations/groups to be included in Rogue States - the Media Circus Reader (www.antimedia.net/mediacircus)

So, if you are connected with a group you think is appropriate, please drop me a direct email.

Thanks, Sam.

not simply a criminal state, but one that

Subject: Bush Push Flash Bash

Hi all, here at Greenpeace we've been quite busy recently showing our
concerns for the recent position of the US administration on Climate Change
and missile defense.

We thought that maybe an interesting way to promote the campaign was to
give some edgy creative input to it. And we called it "Bush Push Flash
Bash".

We are asking all the flash/shockwave developers who want to contribute to
the campaign to do a short animation that we'll promote from greenpeace.org
(we'll include the credits...).

For details about the animation (you guessed the subject, right? ;-) go to
http://cybercentre.greenpeace.org/t/s/991930676/index_html

For questions, e-mail me.

Ciao,
Gillo

announce initial event of the BROADCASTING PROJECT [dedicated to Nikola
Tesla] & [artEfacts] ongoing series of lectures

Brian HOLMES
BROADCAST CULTURE AND RECIPROCAL FUTURES
10_06_01_sunday. 20:00h
Net.culture club [mama], PreradoviÊeva 18, Zagreb, Croatia

Brian Holmes is an art critic, cultural theorist and political activist,
living in Paris, France. He writes for Parachute Magazine (Montreal) and
Springerin (Vienna), contributes frequently to nettime, and is a member of
the French activst group Ne Pas Plier (Do Not Bend).

His lecture in Zagreb, entitled "Broadcast Culture and Reciprocal Futures,"
explores the possible roles of art practices in the political conflict, now
emerging on a world scale, between a neoliberal media populism based
essentially on broadcast technologies and feedback information, and an
alliance of self-organized, self-educating associations, increasingly able
to transform free-market technologies into instruments of democratic
exchange over the shape of the very near future. Images of one of the more
recent episodes in the political confrontation - the FTAA summit in Quebec,
Canada - will provide a closer look at a few artistic practices that
weren't discussed on TV.

next on "Broadcasting project": Hans Ulrich OBRIST, 12_06_01_tuesday
and Diedrich DIEDRICHSEN, Iara BOUBNOVA, Renata SALECL, Viktor MISSIANO...
/exact dates will be announced/

BROADCASTING PROJECT [exhibition, performances, concerts, lectures,
workshops, live & media events ... on various locations in the city and
cyberspace, fall/winter 2001.]
Broadcasting project moves in opposition to the oppression of monologue and
centralised patriarchal infotainment. Key questions are communication and
mediation. Succes of mediated communication depends on the conditions under
which the exchange takes place - those conditions are not primary
technological but social, economical, culural, political...
... stressing the concepts of communication-as-art and
art-as-communication, we want to continue promotion, public presentation
and media intervention of socially relevant art practice...
Broadcasting project is envisioned as anenergizing, electryfying series of
events that will provide powerful surplus of energy to the stalled  Zagreb
social/cultural/arts scene...
Life and inventions of Nikola Tesla represent historical reference, and
theoretical trigger is found in Bertolt Brecht's txt "The Radio as an
Apparatus of Communication" [1932]

"...radio is one-sided when it should be two-. It is purely an apparatus
for distribution, for mere sharing out. So here is a positive suggestion:
change this apparatus over from distribution to communication. The radio
would be the finest possible communication apparatus in public life, a vast
network of pipes. That is to say, it would be if it knew how to receive as
well as transmit, how to let the listener speak as well as hear, how to
bring him into a relationship instead of isolating him."
Bertolt Brecht, "The Radio as an Apparatus of Communication" (1932)

Cybersalon:

Educating in Pixels:
What role should universities play in new media education?

Wednesday 13th June 2001
@ the ICA, the Mall, London SW1

£8 / £5 (conc.)/ £4 (ICA members)

part 1:



With the growth of the Net, are higher education institutions providing  the
best education in the appropriate practical and theoretical skills? Do
students benefit from taking the new courses in new media? What do
employers think about the capabilities of people who have completed media
studies degrees?

This cybersalon seeks to investigate the increasing importance of
universities in new media education. How far should their courses be
focused on providing the design and programming skills needed to get a  good
job? How can their degrees address the wider socio-historical and  aesthetic
issues which all students need to know?

Because of the rapid pace of economic and technological evolution within
the Net, even the most successful new media courses are always in danger  of
losing their edge. How can this threat be addressed? How can universities
adapt to constant change while maintaining academic standards? How can
teaching be about how to learn as well as what to learn?

What skills do new media businesses want from graduates - and how are  they
ensuring they get them? Some companies are defining their own labour  needs
and training their workers themselves. Should they be forging tighter  links
with university courses? Do such collaborations undermine the space for
critical thought within higher education? What is the role of the
government in the expansion of new media teaching? Should the state  simply
provide more money for the universities - or should ministers be deciding
the sort of new media courses which are needed in this country?

Whether you are a student or teacher, worker or employer, or simply
interested in the future of higher education in England, come to hear our
panellists debate the issues - and make your own contribution to this
important debate.

Speakers include

Douglas Rushkoff (cyber-writer and teacher at New York University)

Sophia Drakopoulou (Cybersalon, CMP Westminster)

Chris Yapp (ICL)

Chaired by Andrew Dewdney (South Bank University, DA2)


Part 2 (£1.50/free):

Cybersalon
A Berlin - London Encounter- cultural free spaces

Mondy 11th June

Cinema 1
The ICA

7pm

£4/£3 (conc.)/£2 (ICA)


A number of small & cheap cultural media spaces have sprung up in  Berlin
helping digital artists support themselves. This has created a  beneficial
environment for independent media collectives to start up. Public  support
for artists in Berlin contrasts starkly with the small amount available  to
digital artists in London.

In the late 1990s London's Clink Street  then Hoxton/Brick Lane had an
informal focus of activity, community and support  networks. With a lack of
places like Backspace, the balance of focus is now  weighed in favour of
the business defined new media industry. With high rents  and equipment
costs, digital artists are financially being forced to orientate  their
creativity more towards commercial output.

Subject: MAGIKA ROMA (OUT NOW!)

AAVV - ALIENS IN ROMA 2.001 (MAGIKA ROMA)

The “mutant mixed fried” is back: to illustrate his alien origins, they
admonish. Folk and world music, roman electronic, yellow-red and
chauvinist, paganeoist. Philosophy of musical action, natural and
"magik", politically eversive, introduced by the tribute to the  “divine

Totti Gò” (Recycle) and followed by a series of exact identity
vindications, lucid and ludic: from the myth of Orfeo (Luigi Tecno),
transporting Bahia odours and citing the visionary and bohemien madness
of  Dino Campana, to Giordano Bruno, Simon Magus, James Frazer, Luther
Blisset, the roman police inspector "Monnezza" and Ninetto Davoli.
Romanity and alien virus, a disc that is much more than an example,
however succeeded, of modern folklore: completely out of clichés,
musical political and cultural, consolatory provincial and
pseudo-intellectual. It's a "political" album but without the unbearable

rhetoric, serious and  reactionary of our left. It's an album of
unbiased and ironical illumination. The re-calls to Stockhausen,
Campana, to magik, nature and the ancient calendar established by
Romolus; to Giordano Bruno "l’Apostata", to the heretik Simon Magus,
David Hume, Orpheus, Bacchus and to sex (and she-wolf, in latin, means
also prostitute) are signs and tradition of a different point of view,
and so alien, then re-elaborated and showed by every artist involved
according his own manner and inspiration, but always in a chaotically
coherent way. From the nù-house tones of Iwo Jima to the Rodion and
Entartetekunst techno, the sufi mystik of Tez, the cut-n-paste of
Recycle and Mir, or like the Cloaca maxima of Margoo. Beautiful is the
grapic of the booklet and the digipak is kicking too. A great record, in

substance: and the aliens are among us, let me say, thanks to God....

by Stefano Di Carlo with the contribute of the mythik "Monnezza" (aka
the cuban actor Tomas Milian very popular in Rome for his cult
interpretation of the roman trash police inspector Nico), witness like
art is, since ever, a game: the free game of imagination. Panem et
circenses!

IWO JIMA - A Fabulous Source
Rome, the historic road that magik-romans opened many times: a mythik
crossroad, a composite intermixture of the most disparate races and
cultures, a world for the major part still undiscovered, a fabulous
source where to draw the water of acquaintance. A trip "on the road" to
the roots of history on afro-latin-roman step. Regina viarum (all the
ways come to Rome)!

MANGA - Navigium Isidis

Golden Age, TeZ dedicate a natural tekno-pagan magik soaked of sufi
mystik. Sower To The People!

FURIA ELETTRICA - Lupercalia
The most famous magik-roman festival of sex and love, celebrated in
honour of Faunus-Lupercus (altar-ego of the greek Pan) and the mythik
She-Wolk, mother of all romans, inspired the tribal free-soul-jazz suite

of Furia Elettrica. Homo Homini Lupus!

Mysticae.

Ninetto Davoli - and also to one of the Great AliensInRoma Masters (Pier

Paolo Pasolini). Scire est reminisci. Where are you, Roma?

ENTARTETEKUNST - Lemuria
The festival of Lemuria, dedicated to the Lemures - "wandering shadows
of timeless dead men" - established by Romulus to appease the soul of
his twin brother Remus, that himself violently killed, here is

to try the contakt with the spirits of our glorious forefathers. In
girum imus nocte et comsumimur igni.

Dedicated to the ancient Oracles - the Sibylles, sects of àugures
white-dressed with the golden fret, the Augustales that, following the
legions into the conquered lands, erected prophetik temples - the
divinatory music, magik-step, of Sata Laeta (latin word for "Happy New
Generation") re-connect to the kosmo-harmonik conception of the
forgotten magik-roman society. Carpe Diem!

LARSEN LOMBRIKI - Meat, Natural Food
According to the sonic "dis/orders" proposed by the roman Rotor Audio
Club, the Larsen Lombriki spin-off read over again from a techno-magik
perspective, at the time of the mad cow and Genetically Modified
Organismes, the ancient ritual use of "eating gods" with the sacral
consumption of the divinity. Pinguia carnae.

GIORGIO GABBER - Veneralia
Love and sex again, protagonists of the Veneral rite re-evokated by the
ethno-techno-pop fanfara of the fantomatik Giorgio Gabber with the
contribute of an old roman popular heroine. Deus Sex Machina!

LUIGI TECNO - Karlos Negro
The myth of Orpheus re-visited in a cyber-folk style by the mysterious
collective Luigi Tecno together with the bohemien poetry of Dino
Campana. From China (with ardour) to the bahian forests passing through
the magik door of Vittorio Square in Rome. De Magicis Meis.

RODION - Sol Invictus
The kult of Mithra, a vedic god very popular in the old magik Roma,
practiced into various underground sites, bring back to the origins of
Christmas, before the advent of Christ. To the young roman techno talent

Rodion, the task of revealing the arcanum. Dies Natalis.

MARGOO - Cloaca Maxima
Dedicated to the god Stercuts, the god of shit, and to the mother of all

sewers, the conscience of the city, monstruos cradle of death but also
of re-generation, the "big  evacuation" played by Margoo become an

THE SENTINELS - Magna Roma
The tribute to the most (in)famous of magik-roman gods, Liber-Bacchus,

invite to let flow the rivers of alcohol and let invade our selves by
the magik drunkenness, because "the wine of roman castels is better of
this dirty, motherfuckin', society..."

RECYCLE - Gratias Amor
Surprise ending with the trip-magik-hop version of a super-classic of
roman popular music. Acta est fabula.

And tricolour will be!!!!

Subject: Bush Push Flash Bash

Hi nettimers,
as you probably noticed @ greenpeace there's a lot going on to raise
awareness about the US positions on Star wars and Climate Change

We thought that maybe an interesting way to promote the campaign was to
give some edgy creative input to it. And we called it "Bush Push Flash
Bash".

We are asking all the flash/shockwave developers who want to contribute to
the campaign to do a short animation that we'll promote from
greenpeace.org (we'll include the credits...).

For details about the animation (you guessed the subject, right? ;-) go to

For questions, e-mail me.

Ciao,Gillo

Subject: The Daniel Langlois Foundation Announces Grant Recipients for 200 1


Press Release


A Record Number (400) of Applications Received 
for the Foundation's Third Call for Projects


THE DANIEL LANGLOIS FOUNDATION
GRANTS NEARLY $1 MILLION TO 23 PROJECTS


Montreal, June 8, 2001 - The Daniel Langlois Foundation for Art, Science and
Technology has just granted nearly $1 million to 23 projects, including
seven that were submitted by Canadian organizations and artists dedicated to
merging art and science through the use of new technologies.

The Foundation received over 400 applications during its third call for
projects. Its international jury examined 160 of the projects, selecting 23
to benefit from the Foundation's five funding programs. Of the projects
chosen, seven are from Canada and six from the United States (including a
collaboration between the United States and Belgium). Other projects also
come from Britain, France, the Netherlands, Germany, India, Latvia,
Bulgaria, Peru and the Philippines. 

"The growing number of applications we've received over the past three years
clearly shows the relevance of our programs and the vitality of research
combining arts and technology," says the Foundation's president, Daniel
Langlois.

Besides Daniel Langlois, the jury included Catherine Richards (Canada),
Rafael Lozano-Hemmer (Mexico-Canada), Peter Ride (Britain) and Jean Gagnon,
the Foundation's director of programs. The jury was particularly impressed
this year by the outstanding quality of the proposals. Grants range from
$10,000 to $80,000. Descriptions of each project can be found at:
http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/projets/list_2001.html. More extensive
descriptions will be posted in mid-July.

Emigre #58
Spring 2001

Everyone is a Designer: Manifest for the Design Economy
Guest edited and designed by Mieke Gerritzen.

Will the Internet of the future be nothing more than enhanced television
with ³buy-now² features? Is it destined to become no more than another
leisure and commerce medium, or can it be steered away from this fate by
designers, taking it to surprising or educational directions? In this
manifesto, designers, critics, and multimedia specialists such as Kevin
Kelly, Max Kisman, Steve Heller, Aaron Betsky, Dejan Krsic, Lies Ros, Janet
Abrams and Dagan Cohen express their opinions in sharp, thought-provoking
questions and declarations. In a social milieu continually transformed by
computers and communication technologies, can design make a difference? Has
interactive design lost its battle against interface ignorance? Are we faced
with a future in which our bodies will be the interface? Rich in magic
formulas, ³Everyone is a Designer² is meant to inspire new creativity.
Originally designed and produced as a small limited edition book, Dutch
designer Mieke Gerritzen (NL-Design) gets a second shot at presenting her
impressive visual statement by redesigning the book¹s pages to fit the
Emigre magazine format.

Then, Elliott Peter Earls, the master of mixing messages and bending
boundaries returns to keep us abreast of his graphic wanderings around the
globe in the second installment of his ³Notes from a Kultural Backwater.²
And, as usual, the Emigre readers respond and voice strong opinions about
the role of graphic design and Emigre¹s place within it.
Finally, a 32-page type specimen booklet will be included with this issue,
introducing a new Emigre font named Dalliance. Designed by Frank Heine
(creator of Remedy and Motion), Dalliance is a family of 9 fonts inspired by
the elegant handwriting found on an antique map depicting the battle that
took place at Ostrach, southwest Germany, in 1799.

You can order copies of the issue on the Emigre webiste at www.emigre.com

Media Circus is a gathering of people who create, consume, critique and distribute media content that challenges, questions, expresses and celebrates our culture, our society and the way we live.

The media is everywhere. Deals, ideas, ideology, websites, porn, breaking news, films, ideas, positions vacant, knowledge, technologies. It's all around us. Just as we tend not to think about where milk comes from, we can forget to interrogate the processes through which media is made. Homogenised and pasterised or non-genetically-modified? It's all mediated.

There is little doubt that the large media corporations with their diverse interests exert an overwhelming amount of influence and control over the way our world works. This is reflected upon and critiqued by academics and others in privileged ghettos, but this detail is often contained inside their sanctioned structures.

We know from our direct experience that the media manipulates and distorts reality, that it misrepresents and influences priorities and that it disempowers and attempts to confuse us with choices we do not ask for. And we know that the media should belong to us, the public, and not to a handful of transnational corporations.

The Media Circus will include a broad group of people to develop networks and share and exchange information, knowledge, skills and tactics. We need to reclaim the media space and continue fostering a bottom-up media culture which will break us free from the illusions which attack and prototype us every day.

We need to tell our own stories and what better place to empower ourselves than at the Circus. For the event to be a success, it is essential that the audience-presenter boundaries are broken. Everyone is a participant.

The Media Circus was first held in Melbourne in September 1999. See the webbed archive.

Media Circus 2001 will be happening in Melbourne on the 12th, 14th and 15th July. 2001, and will be comprised of screenings, discussions, forums and exchanges. The days will be packed, but there will be spaces for autonomous gatherings and networking.

It is hoped that this event will help create an origin from where more Media Circus events can be held to continue the development of a media culture in Melbourne and other networked locations.
