10,- (membership included)

'fem snd' will be a party within Next 5 Minutes("International Festival of
Tactical Media around the notion of tactical media, the fusion of art,
politics and media". Amsterdam 11 - 14 September 2003 - http://www.
n5m.org)
'fem snd'features electronic music by women. In live performances and DJ
sets the invited artists introduce a variety of ground-braking conceptual
and technical innovations, presenting electronic music, ranging from
experimental to dance floor.
The idea for 'fem snd' has been conceived during the TML Berlin (Tactical
Media Lab), in the workshop 'Sounds Tactical'in February 2003.

Invited artists:
-- Riz Maslen aka Neotropic, live
Crunchy beats, layered soundscapes, scratchy guitars, childrens
xylophones.....expect anything from folk, rock and neo classical in her
performance. Alongisde her lo-fi super 8 road movie. Neotropic will also
be showcasing material from her forth coming album White Rabbits
--  Mieko Shimizu aka Apache 61'
Mieko combines traces of dub, drum 'n bass, noise, and ambience into thick
textures of energized electronic music. She has been crossing over the
art, music and club scenes with its depth defying eletronica unashamedly
driven by its rhythmic core - layers and layers of cross woven breaks and
shattered percussion, battling waves of sub bass.
-- The Godmothers, part II, live
'Moto Nero' is a  sound-performances which the Godmothers part II have
developed for four turntables and effect gear to a short-film by Maria
Ploskow. With various technical skills they created sounds and noises to
underline the movements of the never-ending story (all computer generated
drwaings). Sentite!
-- Gudrun Gut, music selector
Since the eighties a well-known Berlin-based musician, composer,
performer, label-owner (monika enterprise), and host of the radio show
'oceanclub', GG does a special DJ-set with music by women only - mostly
new experimental electronic, adding some  of her own latest  tracks.
-- Donna Maya, DJ
She is member of the Godmothers, part II and is well-known to move the
masses with her drum 'n base mixes.
-- Saphine, DJ (aka. Kriz / Miss Johnny)
She is a well-known member of the drum 'n base community, and prefers
massive tunes and diverse forms of broken beatz.
-- Übergeek (Amy Alexander), VJ
She is the Live Internet VJ for the Geek Age and presents for the first
time 'CyberSpaceLand', Post-dotcom entertainment. She turns search engine
queries into fun-and-funky club visuals while revealing the poignant
poetry of net culture. An all-text video mix, CyberSpaceLand is generated
in real-time by slightly chaotic algorithms and a human VJ with slightly
odd-looking wireless computer gear taped on.

In addition to the party which is also understood as a networking
activity, there will take place 'fem snd - unplugged' an informal meeting
on Sunday at 1 pm (location to be announced), where the artists,
organizers and an interested audience meet to discuss political and
economic implications of electronic music, like for example peer-to-peer
activities, copyright issues and the obvious underrepresention of females
in the sphere of electronic music and club culture.

Organized by Cornelia Sollfrank (http://artwarez.org),
