BUSY COSMOS
Stephan Schröder shows first Concept Previews of his 'hardwired Output' .
Busy COSMOS is avaible after each serach on www.verybusy.de , at the
bottom of the Outputlist or directly under
www.verybusy.org/cosmos_check.htm .
ABOUT BUSY ART COSMOS:
Nowadays (media)art has to explain itself. What art is, is not
understood by the context of the works anymore, but their explaintations.
(media)art doen't know anymore what it is, should be and what it effects
on. Simply the artists work as statement, does not fit the intelligibility
anymore, as we need metainformation that speak for the work.
Is the populardefinition via keywords enough to have control over that
neverending net(art)machinery and that online universe ? How does art
explain itself - now in the lack of time - where isn't space for
explaintations anymore ?
The Busy Server not only as Artsearchengine, but also transparent
Database on the discover for netspecific abnormalities, let the Machine
itself and the Computerprogram BUSY COSMOS decide. A COSMOS is
being shown that you - the net community - generated unaware, but are
responseable for. Shown are the most common requests for keywords at
the BUSY Searchengine, as constellation of planets and therefor
metaphoric 'our' online-netart-universe - somewhere between traumatic
size and nothing.

'Since its inception in 1993, the journal _Angelaki_ has
established itself as a leading forum of theoretical reflection,
providing a practical refutation of all those who would celebrate
"the end of theory." Whether it is focused on thematic issues of
the most varied nature, introducing thinkers to English-language
readers, or treating a variety of problems in open issues,
_Angelaki_ challenges the complacency of the self-evident.
Required reading for the next millennium.'

*****************
The [European] Network University offers a free online workshop over the
New Economy
*****************
What: a free online workshop providing tools for finding your way through
this maze called the new economy
Where: meet you at our website http://www.netuni.nl
When: 15 december 1999
Time: feel free to log-in and participate at any time between 9.00 - 21.00
European Standard Time
Who: hosted by The [European] Network University an initiative from the
University of Amsterdam
Contact: Lara van Druten [laraguy@xs4all.nl] Gerd Junne [gjunne@inter.nl.net]
Vic Klabbers [ipe@dds.nl] Tel: + 31 (0)20 525 5305
The New Economy has become a buzzword peppered throughout newspapers and
magazines. Books are devoted to the subject. Ministers refer to it in
parliamentary debates and companies that are valued in the billions yet are
still to make a profit explain their existence by the workings of this new
system. Yet, what exactly are the contours of this new economy? And what
are some of the key issues defining the debate on the subject? This is the
topic that The [European] Network University [TNU] will tackle during a
full day of online collaborative learning devoted to "The New Economy: find
your way through the maze".
A premise of the New Economy is: if you want to capture attention - a
scarce commodity in the networked age - 'give your product for free'. This
is the strategy TNU has chosen. For the launch of its new website on 15
December TNU will offer a free one day online workshop in which the subject
of the New Economy is explored. Anyone, anywhere with an interest in the
subject and a connection to the Internet is welcome to participate. In a
playful and dynamic environment the online workshop will provide
participants with strategies, discussion topics, and an overview of authors
and statements on some of the key characteristics of this new terrain.
Furthermore, participants will be asked to submit short assignments on
which they will receive feedback and are welcome to discuss a broader range
of issues pertaining to the New Economy with a panel of key personalities
and thinkers on the subject. These include Gerd Junne (professor University
of Amsterdam), Erik Mandersloot (independent consultant, associate prof.
University of Nyenrode), Annemieke Roobeek (professor University of
Amsterdam, University of Nyenrode), Geoffrey Underhill (professor
University of Amsterdam) and Karel van Wolferen (Director Institute for
Comparative Political and Economic Institutions) who will participate from
Japan. There will be further online participation from New York University,
University of Bradford and the Erasmus University. The online workshop that
is being offered forms a slice of a full one week course offered by TNU in
January on the same subject.
The [European] Network University [TNU] is an ambitious project, with its
roots in the University of Amsterdam. TNU aims to provide highly
interactive, innovative Internet based distance learning to a global
audience. The initiative is based on the concrete attempt to create
educational alternatives that match the needs of the networked age. This is
achieved through the creation of collaborative learning networks in which a
broad range of stakeholders play an active part in the knowledge creation
process. In this way dynamic collaborative learning knowledge clusters
around subject topics are created. A central role in the TNU concept is
played by the online academic call center. On the one hand this provides a
high degree of direct supervision and support to each participant giving
immediate and personal feedback to individual learning trajectories. On the
other hand, it is central in the "real-time" reworking of ideas and
experiences of participants back into the courses.
Interested? We hope to welcome your log-in on the 15th!

Call for submissions and suggestions for Mediterranean and Balkan net activities
Call for submission and/or suggestion of net-based art-works, art-actions,
net-projects and net-communications. The submissions will form an attempt, for
the compilation of a “map of activities and works” of the Mediterranean and
Balkan region. The submitted addresses will take part to the Mediaterra festival
(Athens 10, 11, 12 of Dec. 99) in the out-of-competition section. The days of
the Mediaterra festival could be a provisional deadline time key to present the
map of net-based art-works and activities of the Mediterranean and Balkan
region.

taz berlin vom 24. November
Zensur? Macht doch nix!
Nach Polizeiaktion ist die stadtbekannte Videothek Videodrom in ihrer
Existenz bedroht. Tausend Kassetten wurden beschlagnahmt. "Nichts
Besonderes", finden die Behörden
Morgens um halb zehn klopften die Polizisten ihn rüde aus dem Bett: Karsten
Rodemann, Mitinhaber des Videodroms - der wichtigsten Videothek Berlin. Wie
in einem schlechten Film hielten ihm die Ordnungshüter einen
Durchsuchungsbefehl vor die Nase.
Rodemann, auch bekannt unter dem Namen Graf Haufen, hatte sich noch nicht
einmal angezogen, da sprangen die Beamten schon auf sein Bett und fingen an
sein Comic-Regal zu durchforsten. Exemplare des Heftes "Strapazzin" waren
offenbar so spannend, dass sie mit auf die Wache genommen wurden:
"beschlagnahmt".
Eigentlich ging es nicht um Comic-Hefte. Einige Stunden nach der
Hausdurchsuchung sitzt Rodemann mit seinen Videodrom-Kollegen im Café direkt
gegenüber dem Laden in der Kreuzberger Mittenwalder Straße: Das Videodrom
ist von der Staatsanwaltschaft geschlossen worden, die Tür versiegelt. Die
Kunden geben ihre Kassetten nun erst mal im Café ab.
Seit zehn Jahren ist die Videothek, in der man die Geschichte der
Independent-Filmszene von vorn bis hinten studieren kann, eine kulturelle
Institution der Stadt und mindestens genauso wichtig wie das Schöneberger
Kino Arsenal. Videodrom ist Anlaufstelle für Cineasten, Filmverrückte und
Kritiker.
Seit Dienstag sind das Büro und der Kellerladen der engagierten
Filmvertreiber geschlossen. Den ganzen Tag über haben Polizisten kistenweise
Filme und Drucksachen aus dem Videodrom in einen Lkw verladen.
"Rund 1.000 Videos wurden beschlagnahmt", sagt Rodemanns Kollegin, die
Videodrom-Mitinhaberin Ines Ruf. Ruf musste morgens plötzlich die Polizisten
in den Laden lassen. Neben den Kassetten nahm die Polizei die elf Computer
der kleinen Firma mit. Auch für Rufs Wohnung hatten die Ermittler einen
Durchsuchungsbefehl. So ganz nebenbei mokierten sich die Beamten darüber,
dass die Wohnung ja wohl mindestens genauso dreckig sei wie das Videodrom
selbst.
Die zuständige Staatsanwältin Twachtmann war gestern nicht zu erreichen. Die
Pressestelle bestätigte den Vorgang, der im übrigen aber "nichts Besonderes
sei". Der Name des zuständigen Ermittlungsrichters werde - wie üblich -
nicht genannt.
Man befinde sich in einem ganz normalen Ermittlungsverfahren "wegen
Verbreitung gewaltverherrlichender Schriften". Wer und ob überhaupt jemand
Anzeige erstattet hat, ist unklar, ob Videos juristisch als "Schriften"
gelten, ebenfalls.
Ines Ruf ist über diese Art von staatsanwaltlicher "Normalität" entsetzt.
Vor sich hat sie einen Aktenordner mit handschriftlichen Listen der
beschlagnahmten Dinge. Unter den hunderten von Kassetten sind viele Filme,
die wochenlang unbeanstandet im Kino oder TV liefen: David Lynchs "Wild At
Heart" oder "Leon der Profi". Auch Christoph Schlingensiefs "100 Jahre
Hitler" wird sich der erneuten Begutachtung durch die Staatsanwaltschaft
aussetzen müssen.
Scheinbar planlos sackten die Ausleiher ohne Ausweis alles ein, was nur im
Geringsten nach Porno oder Gewalt aussah. Kassetten mit nackten Brüsten
(Peter Walkers Film "Cool it Carol") oder zu großen Knarren auf dem Cover
wanderten sofort in die mitgebrachten Kartons.
Wir verleihen keine indizierten Videos", sagen die Betreiber. Sie sind
entsetzt, dass ihnen innerhalb weniger Stunden die gesamte Geschäftsbasis
entzogen wurde: Fünfzehn Leute würden bei einer längeren Schließung
arbeitslos. Sie vermuten, dass dem international gerühmten Videodrom in
einem scheinbar günstigen Moment das Wasser abgegraben werden soll.
Seit der Diskussion, ob nach einem Mord an einer bayerischen Lehrerin Filme
erlaubt sind, in denen Lehrer ermordet werden sollen, scheint es auch in
Berlin Interesse daran zu geben, der Zensur das Wort zu reden.
Obwohl in dem Film "Tötet Mrs. Tingel" kein Mensch zu Schaden kommt, hat der
Verleih Kinowelt sich dafür entschieden, den Streifen in "Rettet Mrs.
Tingel" umzubenennen.
Das war möglicherweise erst der harmlose Anfang einer Hysterie in Sachen
"Gewalt und Kunst". Bedeutet die Schließung des Videodroms, dass jetzt in
Berlin ein neues Interesse an Zensur besteht? Da kann man nur viel Spaß beim
Sichten der Filme wünschen.
