CFP explores what will be, not what has been. Since this CFP will be held in 2001, the theme is the future of computing, freedom and privacy, including the convergence of information and communication technologies with other advanced technology areas and the new challenges to freedom and privacy that they engender throughout the world.

Sin titulo Pagina normal:: invitacion a un desmontaje cinematografico de oscar a. garcia | viernes 22 de diciembre | media noche | =FAnico dia | mexico d.f. :: |> 2000 | 2001 <| : : [-] 100 to 50 : : <simulaciones> una obra en tiempo real de oscar a. garcia > en homenaje al pensamiento de paul virilio >A partir del hecho de que el arte ya no tiene lugar, que se ha convertido en pura energia, trabajan los artistas de la deslocalizacion en la escena artistica contemporanea. Muchos artistas han anticipado la perdida de lugar, el des-emplazamiento del arte, lo anticipan en un energetismo que puede incluir las imagenes mas espantosas, o la mayor aceleracion de las imagenes en un nivel de feedback. =BFEs este intento energeticista una de las =FAltimas maneras de afrontar la disolucion? Como alguien que siente que las fuerzas te fallan y pone toda su fuerza en un ultimo golpe, precisamente por que sabe que es el =FAltimo. Veo algo asi en la danza, en el teatro, el video, en todas las artes de que todavia disfruto. Me repelen las artes plasticas ahora, porque no queda nada, para mi se acabo. >Para mi el cine esta acabado. Durante a=F1os no he soportado el cine, principalmente porque ya no soporto el ritual de los cines. El cine tenia que haber cambiado sus escenarios de presentacion. Existe gracias al lugar llamado 'cine', y ese lugar, como el arte, debe revolucionarse constantemente. Pero obviamente es mas caro hacer nuevas salas de cine cada dos a=F1os que hacer nuevas peliculas cada dos a=F1os. A menudo he comentado que es preciso sacar a Godard de la sala de cine, de otra forma el propio Godard desaparecera. El cine 'tiene lugar', tiene su propio cuarto oscuro, su camara oscura, y es necesario hacer que ese 'lugar' evolucione. Hoy la camara oscura es el espacio virtual, es el videocasco, ya no hay 'cuarto oscuro'. Es otra deslocalizacion... Me pregunto entonces si el arte no ha regresado desde la exposicion, desde la instalacion en la pared o en la galeria, hacia las inscripciones del land art, solo para finalmente desaparecer, ya no inscrito en ninguna parte mas que en el instantaneo intercambio de sensaciones ofrecido por la realidad virtual. >Lo que tenemos hoy seria una estetica sideral: una estetica de la desaparicion, y no una de la aparicion. =BFPodemos agarrarnos a la balsa de la medusa que representa el land art, como a una especie de salvavidas que nos lleve hacia la reinscripcion y reinstalacion del arte en el aqui y ahora, el hic et nunc, en los que yo insisto? =BFO es ese salvavidas el signo de un barco hundiendose -y la victoria caera del lado de la realidad virtual como electrocucion reciproca, en la instantaneidad de un arte que no deja rastro? >> El arte no puede estar en ning=FAn sitio, no existe mas que como emisin y recepcion de una se=F1al, solo en el feedback. El arte de la era virtual es un arte de la retroalimentacion - -sin hablar todavia de internet. Asi que desplazandose desde su inicial inscripcion en un lugar -cueva, piramide o castillo- a traves de museos, galerias y colecciones itinerantes, y mas tarde a traves de reproducciones fotograficas -donde el viaje es ya de otra indole- y del CD-rom, que todavia es un soporte material, el arte de hoy, con sus tecnicas interactivas, ha alcanzado el nivel de intercambio instantaneo entre el actor y el espectador, la deslocalizacion final. viernes 22 de diciembre | a=F1o 2000 | 24:00 hrs [ km 15.5 carretera picacho > ajusco ] desde periferico tomar la desviacion ajusco six flags y seguir derecho |> www.planetax.com.mx <| | smarts > sushi > fogatas > comida > jugos > frutas > agua > cerveza > laberinto > seguridad > estacionamiento > cuestionamiento | ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 22 Dec 2000 16:43:00 +0100 From: "transmediale" <info@transmediale.de> Subject: transmediale.01 newsletter no.1 transmediale.01 - international media art festival berlin DIY [ do it yourself ! ] 4 - 11 February 2001 the programme planning for the upcoming transmediale - international media art festival berlin - is progressing fast. in the coming weeks, we will be sending out regular news updates which will, as soon as possible, also be reflected on the festival website which is under construction. here is a first overview over some parts of the festival programme: * two-day CONFERENCE with two international panels each day: - - Social Software (8 feb afternoon) - about software as a designed motor of social change - - Artistic Software (8 feb evening) - about programming as artistic practice - - New Forms of Distribution (9 feb afternoon) - about artistic content production and distribution on the net - - Net-Based Participation (9 feb evening) - about art projects probing models of interaction and participation * artist presentations and prize ceremony for the projects shortlisted for the transmediale.01 AWARDS in the three categories, Interactive, Video, and Artistic Software (10 feb) * six thematic VIDEO SCREENING programmes from the competition submissions (5, 6, 7, 11 feb) and a video-on-demand service * the Competition Terror screening night - all you can take!
