EUROPEAN MEDIA ART FESTIVAL OSNABRÜCK

The motto of the 2008 festival is IDENTITY, reflected in film programmes, lectures and specials. Positioning by the media and artistic self-definitions will be pursued; individual, social and global identities in a rapidly changing world will be explored and queried according to subjective and scientific localisations.

The EMAF is one of the most influential forums of international Media Art. As a meeting point for artists, curators, lenders, gallery owners and an audience of specialists, the festival has had a great impact on the topic and aesthetics of Media Art. Each year the festival offers its visitors a current overview of experimental films, installations, performances, digital formats and hybrid forms, ranging from personal and political subjects or formal experiments to provocative statements.

At the festival an international jury will present the EMAF Award for a trend-setting work in Media Art and the Dialogpreis of the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the promotion of intercultural exchange. Furthermore, the jury of the German Federal Association of Film Journalists will award the prize for the best German experimental film.

The Program
The MIT Visual Arts Program operates as a production- and education-basedlaboratory within the context of an advanced technological community. Our program explores the wider role and relevance of art in society and considers artistic practice as knowledge production, thus promoting an approach that challenges traditional genres and the limits of the gallery/museum context. Studio investigations and artistic research are realized through performance, video, photography, manufactured objects, electronic systems, interrogative design, as well as through experimental media and newgenre. Central to the curriculum is the potential for students to concurwith other areas of the MIT community. There are endless opportunities to develop collaborative, interdisciplinary relationships with programs and labs in architecture, urban planning, media arts and sciences, mechanical engineering and
other disciplines.

Students & Alumni
Students are encouraged to develop their own artistic vision and to freely explore the unparalleled research and technological resources availableat MIT. Recent areas of critical research engage in the role of art and culture in today's society, from a radio broadcast vehicle (Max Goldfarb '06) to rethinking knowledge production and transmission through artisticmeans (Hope Ginsburg '07). Students participate in outside exhibitions, and projects were recognized through a number of prestigious awards. Alumni have secured coveted fellowships and teaching positions around the globe, and have gained international recognition through exhibitions and events. Hiroharu Mori '04 participated in the 2007 Venice Biennial, JenniferAllora '03, along with Guillermo Calzadilla, participated in the Lyon Biennial of Contemporary Art, the Istanbul Biennial and the 8th Sharjah Biennial, all in 2007, and Jill Magid '00 had a solo show at the Gagosian Gallery, New York.

Subject: AER - online exhibition at greenmuseum.org

I'd like to invite you to view an online exhibition called 'AER' at the greenmuseum, featuring artworks that look critically at the issue of air quality and use various methods to raise awareness of the issue among the public. Because air is invisible, artists are faced with the challenge of making the intangible real. Because air pollution is a silent killer, artists are challenged to give a voice to the body's dependence on clean air. Most of the featured projects blur the line between art and activism, and all the artists are changing public understanding of the air around us, questioning accepted norms of ownership of and responsibility to the air we must breathe to live.

Here is the url: http://www.greenmuseum.org/c/aer/

There are some very interesting works, and we have included a short survey about air quality and art that I hope to use in an analysis of the show. If you have a few minutes, check out the show and give some responses on the survey.

Thanks;

Andrea

Media Release

Second Life Architecture Awards

The constructed architectural spaces of Second Life share a commonality with the exotic invisible cities of Italo Calvino. They are at once familiar yet completely otherworldly: inverted, fantastical, corrupted, baroque and barren, unexpected, startling and compellingly seductive. They are both our present and our future.

In September this year Dr Melinda Rackham, ANAT's Director and 3D world author and theorist, was invited to join a 6 member international Jury assessing the Annual Second Life Architecture & Design Competition, a first of its kind, held at the 2007 Ars Electronica Festival in Austria.

The jury deliberated over the 126 submissions before a live audience at the Architekturforum Linz, while being simultaneously streamed into Second Life. Four outstanding projects, that took advantage of both the artistic and technical possibilities afforded by Second Life were selected as finalists:

· Berliner Tanja Meyle's "Living Cloud", is a semitransparent cloud that travels with her and provides privacy and sanctuary, a consistent need for an avatar in Second Life. The cloud surrounding her avatar Creatina Ferraris is not only a transportable house; its variability brings in an association with the idea that the house is just an extension of the body of the person who inhabits it.

· From San Francisco, DC Spensley creates "Full Immersion Hyperformalism" an usual and innovative user interface, constructed to allow an avatar to view a fine art exhibition. This structure is defined as "less a building than a spatial interface containing numerous abstracted and interactive possibilities".

· Adam Nash's "17 Unsung Songs" allows avatars to be physically immersed in interactive sound scapes, constructions that create a tension within their Australian parkland environment. Here audiovisual elements undergo spatial modification via avatar interaction giving rise to a new aesthetic and sensory spatial construct.

· Conceptually and technically innovative is "White Noise", a work from Vienna based Max Moswitzer. This experiment in non-human architecture utilises the detritus of Second Life, freebie objects such as teddy bears and discarded skateboards, to construct a dazzling white snow-palace. This mishmashed building enfolds on multiple levels of detail and evokes the perfect domicile for the realm of Second Life.

The selected projects are presented online (www.sl-award.com) where the public are invited to vote for their favourite project. The winner receives a 1,000-euro grand prize, which will be awarded on 25 October 2007 at the prize ceremony, which includes discussions and a party at Zollverein, Essen, the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site.

Dr Melinda Rackham comments, "ANAT is committed to enabling artists to work critically with emerging forms of practice, and the virtual terrains of Second Life are indicative of trends that will become important in future virtual 3D platforms".

blogger skins

“blogger skins” is a project based on time-specific capturing of image Google searches.
The community most sensitive to this new phenomenon, and par excellence conceptually most related, is the world of pro-bloggers. For this project I chose five art bloggers: Tom Moody (tommoody.us), Paddy Johnson (artfagcity.com), Régine Debatty (we-make-money-not-art.com), James Wagner (jameswagner.com) and Joy Garnett (newsgrist.typepad.com) and performed specific image searches on their names. The thumbnails of first 100 images were imported (in the order of appearance) into an HTML editor and compiled into an image map, reflecting the original Google layout and popularity of search items.

Piksel07 :: Exhibition
Nov 16 - Dec 16 2007
===============

Piksel[1] is an international event for artists and developers working with open source audiovisual software, hardware & art. Part workshop, part festival, it is organised in Bergen, Norway, by the Bergen Centre for Electronic Arts (BEK) [2] and involves participants from more than a dozen countries exchanging ideas, coding, presenting art and software projects, doing workshops, performances and discussions on the aesthetics and politics of FLOSS & art.

This years event - Piksel07 - continues the exploration of free/libre and open source audiovisual code and it's myriad of expressions, and also investigates further the open hardware theme introduced at Piksel06.

The theme of Piksel07 - Hello hackability! - celebrates hackability as an essential feature which allows for new artistic possibilities in the use of open formats, free software and DIY hardware as creative platforms.

Piksel07 is done in collaboration with Gallery 3,14[3] which will host this years exhibition. Piksel is organised by BEK and a community of core participants including members of collectives dyne.org, goto10.org, ap/xxxxx, hackitectura.net, riereta.net, gephex.org and others.
