The electric violin engages in a dialog with the complete robot orchestra, in which each automat behaves as a fully fledged musician. This way RobotGarden becomes an interactive work where the boundaries between composition and the development of musical instruments and interfaces fade. - - Eva Vandevoorde plays "Baklava", a new composition by Godfried-Willem Raes for bass clarinet and the automaton orchestra. ____________________________________________________ LOGOS FOUNDATION Center for Experimental Music Production Postal adress: Kongostraat 35 Logos Tetrahedron concert hall: Bomastraat 26-28 9000 GENT BELGIUM tel.:[32]-9-2238089 fax.:[32]-9-2250434 email: info@logosfoundation.org VISIT LOGOS' LIVELY WEBSITE: http://logosfoundation.org ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 7 May 2003 08:06:30 -0700 (PDT) From: Deb King <debkking@yahoo.com> Subject: Detroit intersections Intersections detroit contemporary presents diverse investigations into the common ground of memory and present, theory and phenomena... real and virtual with this on-going project by members of Detroit's arts communities. http://www.detroitcontemporary.com/intersect/index2.html Lynn Crawford and Clinton Snider Francis Grunow Carla Harryman Sherry Hendrick Kai Kim and Mike Kelley Bryan Koehn Chris MacNamara Melanie Manos Dawn Nye Frank Shifreen Martin Schramm Patrica Soderberg Chris Tysh Elizabeth Youngblood Curated by digital worker Deb King and film artist Robert Andersen.

The United States Dept. of Agriculture (USDA), USAID, and the US State Department are hosting a summit to which the Ministers of Trade, Agriculture, and Environment from 180 nations Have been invited. It will take place in downtown Sacramento from June 23-25, 2003. An "Expo On Agricultural Science and Technology" will run concurrently to showcase transnational agribusiness and biotechnology corporations and promote an industrialized, hunger inducing, agricultural model. These events are intended to build up to the WTOs September 2003 meetings in Cancun, Mexico. Agriculture is the most contentious issue inside the WTO. Neither the meeting nor the Expo are open to the general public. "This is not a public event", say EXPO organizers. A broad coalition of community organizations from Sacramento and Northern California are organizing a response to these events. www.biodev.org/sacramento/ ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 7 May 2003 17:11:38 -0400 From: Dominique Fontaine <dfontaine@fondation-langlois.org> Subject: Press release Pour la version française: http://www.fondation-langlois.org/f/informations/nouvelles/index.html [ Apologies for cross-posting / veuillez excuser les envois multiples ] **************************************************************************** **Press Release** THE DANIEL LANGLOIS FOUNDATION AND THE GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM LAUNCH THE BOOK PERMANENCE THROUGH CHANGE: THE VARIABLE MEDIA APPROACH Montreal, May 7, 2003 - The Daniel Langlois Foundation for Art, Science, and Technology and the Guggenheim Museum held a book launch at Ex-Centris today for PERMANENCE THROUGH CHANGE: THE VARIABLE MEDIA APPROACH. This bilingual publication was produced as part of a research partnership on variable media and published under the supervision of Alain Depocas, Director of the Foundation's Centre for Research and Documentation, Jon Ippolito, the associate curator of media arts at the Guggenheim Museum, and Caitlin Jones, a Foundation fellow working to preserve variable media at the Guggenheim. The book contains the proceedings of a conference held at the Guggenheim in New York in the spring of 2001 as well as texts by such authors as Bruce Sterling, Jon Ippolito, John Handhardt, Steve Dietz and Nancy Spector. It presents viewpoints, methods and case studies concerning the preservation of artwork created using non-traditional material, tools and technologies. Among the works explored are Nam June Paik's TV Garden, Meg Webster's Stick Spiral, Ken Jacobs' Bitemporal Vision: The Sea, Felix Gonzalez-Torres' Public Opinion, Grahame Weinbren and Roberta Friedman's The Erl King, and Mark Napier's net.flag. Those attending the book launch included Jean Gagnon and Alain Depocas for the Daniel Langlois Foundation and Jon Ippolito and Caitlin Jones for the Guggenheim. They presented the variable media concept for preserving artwork created using non-traditional means and also spoke about the Variable Media Network. Mr. Gagnon emphasized that one of the Foundation's key interests is research into preserving our digital artistic and cultural heritage, in other words, artworks commonly produced today via new technological means. "That's why we wanted a hand in developing a variable media network," Mr. Gagnon said. "The book marks the first milestone in this project." A Web site, *www.variablemedia.net*, has been created to inform people interested in the variable media concept. The site offers the book Permanence Through Change: The Variable Media Approach in PDF format. Also available are texts outlining the main aspects of the concept as well as full transcripts and video excerpts from the 2001 conference. In addition, video interviews with artists and answers to a questionnaire on variable media will later be added. As part of the same research, an experimental database is in the works and will be available to members of the Variable Media Network. This database will help preserve and share information taken from a questionnaire that artists are invited to fill out. Starting this fall, a version of this database will be offered on the variable media Web site. *About the Daniel Langlois Foundation for Art, Science, and Technology* The Daniel Langlois Foundation's purpose is to further artistic and scientific knowledge by fostering the meeting of art and science in the field of technologies. The Foundation aims to nurture a critical awareness of technology's implications for human beings and their natural and cultural environments and to promote the exploration of aesthetics suited to evolving human environments. The Centre for Research and Documentation (CR+D) seeks to document history, artworks and practices associated with electronic and digital media arts and to make this information available to researchers in an innovative manner through data communications. - - 30 - Sources Alain Depocas, adepocas@fondation-langlois.org Director, Centre for Research and Documentation, Daniel Langlois Foundation (514) 987-7177 www.fondation-langlois.org Information Marie&June Inc.
