As organizers of the Tampere event we have spent a lot of time talking about organizational aspect and technical items but we forgot the political aspects of the counter-summit. Yes that´s true but we are still in time in order to develop in Tampere also the debat between the different reality of the european sans-papier network. We think that in Tampere we can really start to build a real network. The results of this unformal work done until now are in any case good. A lot of different things will happen in Europe in October 15 and 16. The lack of the political debat is also undoubtly caused from a sostantial uniformity of the point of view. In any case we hope that we will start to discuss really concrete things in Tampere working groups as network, actions, pratical solidarity and so. We would like also to say that the counter-summit and the other event of this autumn are not determinated from the side of the enemy. The Tampere counter- summit is not an answer to a meeting of european govermnents but a part of a process started from the antagonist side in French from 1995-96, followed by an huge mobilisation in every corner of our continent. The process stops in april 99 in consequence of the Balkans war. Now is time to fight again not because the EU have a summit but because the political process of formation of a subjectivity is in action. The third point is that we do not look for a media spectacle in Tampere in opposition to the spectacle of the EU. For us is not important to have just a good demo but for us is important to give a strong signal to the society, to immigrants, to all the people involved in our common struggle and to build a real network of real struggles. For this reason this Tampere update #3 is an appeal to act in your country and an appeal to come in Tampere. We really need the presence of every single person of every single collective. The situation at the moment is that police will try to marginalize our event and will try to reduce our public space and visibility. The intention is clear because the decisions that the EU will take in Tampere are not only secret (no information about the contempt of the summit) but also really dramatic for immigrants and for society in general. The EU will open a new chapter made of militarization of territories and borders, made of mass expulsion, made of prisons for sans-papier. A new chapter of death and repression for all. We ask to all the activists of European networks to come in Tampere. We are ready to make all the necessary efforces in order to arrange flexible transportations and accomodations in Tampere and also in Helsinki. At the moment groups from Germany, Italy, French, Yugoslavia, Sweden and other countries have informed us that they will be in Tampere. Also representative of the immigrants associations in Finlands will join the event. We really hope to see also you in Tampere.

Here's the direct URL for the excerpt: http://www.mindjack.com/rushkoff/coercion.html For those unfamiliar with it, Mindjack is a bi-monthly online magazine about technology and culture, and the relationships between the two. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

The development of digital techniques for computation and communication has had a profound impact on contemporary culture. Desktop portable and hand held devices and the networks that interconnect them have altered the way that work and communication is undertaken. Much effort has been expended in theorising the nature of these changes and the interfaces that are required by and for them. At the same time, a quiet revolution has been underway. The number and the distribution of embedded controllers far exceeds those of dedicated information processing machines. These devices are beginning to alter the nature of the fabric from which environments are constructed as well as the behaviours that are exhibited by them. Objects and environments with embedded sensor-effector and processing capabilities are becoming commonplace. Adaptive, interactive and autonomous material systems suggest that the relationship between humans and material culture is undergoing a fundamental shift. Discourses drawn from architectural/environmental and media theory are not significantly adapted to this new condition. Critical design practice, in these terms, is not yet well established. Submissions are welcomed relating to the cultural and cognitive dimensions of interactions with intelligent environments from both the theoretical perspective and that of technical, artistic and cultural practices and products. Research papers may include a range of related issues, such as cooperative buildings or environments, intelligent rooms, structures, or objects, interfaces to situated and embodied media, interaction with and interfaces to distributed systems, human-machine, human-environment and human-agent interaction, especially that which does not depend upon symbolic, representational or linguistic interfaces. 'Intelligent Environments' will promote a critical understanding of the issues that surround the relationship between humans and adaptive, interactive intelligent and autonomous environments.

The excerpt is an insightful and humorous commentary on the future of the Internet by none other than Vinton Cerf, co-developer of TCP/IP, and often referred to as the "Father of the Internet." Cerf's tumbling monologue begins and ends with speed- related issues: the lust for prompt delivery of goods & services, the restrictions of bandwidth. In between, he touches on standards, telecommuting, videoconferencing, and how the Internet will be incorporated into appliance design, leading to such things as reading glasses that display the web and "smart toilets." "Talking Back to the Machine" is a collection of 16 speeches given at the 50th Anniversary conference of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). Luminaries such as Gordon Bell (DEC), Pattie Maes (MIT), Nathan Myhrvold (Microsoft), Brenda Laurel, Reed Hunt (FCC), Bruce Sterling, and Nobel laureate Murray Gell-Mann, were asked to speculate on technology's impact on the human condition in the next 50 years. Carefully edited by Peter J. Denning for print publication, these speeches are refreshingly free of tables, charts or jargon, and cover such wide-ranging ground as education, time travel, culture, business, entertainment, and war. To get the excerpt from "Talking Back to the Machine," simply send mailto:excerpt@tenagra.com with the subject line, "Send Cerf," and I will reply with a text file. You can find more information about the book at the ACM's web site: http://www.acm.org Thanks, Steve O'Keefe - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | 0 9 | - - - - http://pleine-peau.com with/for http://campus.ensba.fr/infozone presents with/for zac99 with/for le musee d'art moderne de la ville de paris presente . . . net.art.in.europe. 8. o c t o b r _ 1 9 9 9 d2b / France / http://www.d2b.org olga kisseleva / France / http://www.fraclr.org/hay/pindex.html net.art.in.europe. 9. o c t o b r _ 1 9 9 9 Alison Craighead et Jon Thomson / UK / http://www.thomson-craighead.net 0100101110101101.ORG / Italie / http://www.0100101110101101.ORG Tilman Baumgaertel / Allemagne / http://www.thing.de/tilman net.art.in.europe. 10. o c t o b r _ 1 9 9 9 Jodi / Pays-Bas / http://www.jodi.org Alexei Shulgin / Russie / http://www.easylife.org Vuk Cosic / Slovenie / http://www.vuk.org Heath Bunting / UK / http://irational.org Olia Lialina / Russie / http://www.teleportacia.org . . . independent.media.strategies. 16. o c t o b r _ 1 9 9 9 Pit Schultz / Allemagne / http://www.mikro.org Florian Schneider / Allemagne / http://www.contrast.org/borders Diana McCarty / Hongrie / Faces mailing-list Michel Fiszbin / France / http://www.medialibre.org Fredox / France / http://www.lederniercri.org David Hudson / Allemagne / http://www.rewired.com independent.media.strategies. 17. o c t o b r _ 1 9 9 9 Rachel Baker / UK / http://irational.org/tm Matthew Fuller / UK / http://bak.spc.org/iod/ Pauline Van Mourik Broekman / UK / http://www.metamute.com Josephine Berry / UK / http://www.yourserver.co.uk/crashmedia Martin Conrads / Allemagne / http://www.art-bag.net/convextv . . . art.vs.economy. 23. o c t o b r _ 1 9 9 9 Freitag Taschen / Suisse / http://www.freitag.ch MBetvous / France / Noel Pujol :Frédéric Bocquet / France / http://campus.ensba.fr/pujol ALL.QUIET / UK / http://www.t0.or.at/~all.quiet/ Undercurrents / UK / http://www.undercurrents.org / art.vs.economy. 24. o c t o b r _ 1 9 9 9 The Western Lands / France / http://www.interpc.fr/mapage/westernlands Ukyio Camera Systems / Allemagne / Ludovic Burel / France / http://www.491.org/projet/api Thierry Théolier / France / "Approved by ALIBI<->ART/PARIS Jean Marc Manach / France / http://emedia.free.fr Ray Thomas / USA / http://rtmark.com/ ... location. musee d'art moderne de la ville de paris / France / palais de tokyo metro alma-marceau / France / http://www.ratp.fr hrs. 12am-06pm mailing-list. mailto:palais-tokyo-list-request@pleine-peau.com with the word subscribe in the body of the message web.site. tba. contacts. jens gebhart mailto:infozone@ensba.fr <> frederic madre mailto:fmadre@wanadoo.fr http://pleine-peau.com with/for http://campus.ensba.fr/infozone presents with/for zac99 with/for le musee d'art moderne de la ville de paris presente . . . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | 1 0 | - - - - I have the pleasure to announce that my last on line project produced in the Berkeley art musueum context is now on Line: http://www.bampfa.berkeley.edu/exhibits/24h00 Yours, Valery Grancher vgranger@imaginet.fr http://nomemory.tsx.org - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | 1 1 | - - - - /* from: natascha <tasche@de-bug.de> */ ambi in/out haus des lehrers alexanderplatz 4 berlin october 9.-24. saturdays - tuesdays 16h - open end dates: sa.9.10. 21h berlin - sinfonie der grossstadt walther ruttmann 1927 live-soundtrack traveler + neukleus mo.11.10. 21h fieldrecordings from the area - tim tetzner tue.12.10. 21h monitor 48 videos lisa ward + rolf pilarsky sa. 16.10. 19h sound-space-environment talk with bernhard leitner so.17.10. 21h ambitalk with diedrich diederichsen mo.18.10. 21h media-smog night tue.19.10. 21h acoustically trapped gases friedrich + lusted wed.20.10. 21h dj taz-kultur harald fricke thu. 21.10. 21h live and artificial teleform + markus maeder (domizil) fr.22.10. 20h psychedelic landart bettina allamoda sa.23.10. 16h mallday + a series of installational work and work in progress: ambi in/out - rashad becker text to speech - bestbefore/istvan gyoengyoesi simcity - rolux osziloscope images - errorsmith stefan pente kugeln der sorge susanne kersenboom rena raedle/carsten assauer ute waldhausen nina fischer/maroan el sani philip scheffner stefan schneider pro qm (?) ........ the programm/content of ambi in/out is permanently under construction and is updated on the website. http://www.ambi-in-out.de - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | | | | # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: majordomo@bbs.thing.net and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@bbs.thing.net
