FROM: Julian Bleecker DATE: March 2, 2008 SUBJECT: Call for Proposals: Convergence CFP- Special Issue on Digital Cultures and California: Extended Submission Deadline This call invites submissions for a special issue related to and about digital cultures of California. Internationally, California is a phenomenon in terms of its relationship to creating, consuming and reflecting upon the era of digital technologies. From the legendary garage entrepreneurs, to the multi-billion dollar culture of venture capital, to stock back-dating scandals, to the epic exodus of California’s IT teams during the Burning Man festival, this state plays an important role in the cultures of digital technologies. EXTENDED SUBMISSION DEADLINE: March 31, 2008 All research articles are refereed and should be between 7000 — 10000 words in length. We also welcome submission of debates (1500 - 3000 words) or Feature Reports (3000 - 4000 words) The Bay Area of California (often referred to somewhat incorrectly as Northern California) is often perceived as a hot-bed of technology activity. Silicon Valley serves as a marker for the massive funding of enterprises that shape many aspects of digital culture. The new interaction rituals that have come to define what social life has become in many parts of the world can often be traced back to this part of the state. New forms of presence awareness and digital communication such as Twitter and Flickr have found a comfortable home in the Bay Area. Complimenting the Bay Area’s activities in “social software” is Southern California — Los Angeles in particular — where Hollywood sensibilities bring together entertainment with technology through such things as video games and 3D cinema. California is also the home of several colleges and universities where digital technologies are developed in engineering departments and reflected upon from social science and humanities departments. This curious relationship between production and analysis creates the promise of insightful interdisciplinary approaches to making culture. Many institutions have made efforts to combine engineering and social science practices to bolster technology design. Xerox PARC probably stands as the canonical example of interdisciplinary approaches to digital technology design. Similarly, combining arts practices with technology as a kind of exploratory research and development has important precedent at places like PARC and at the practice-based events such as the San Jose California-based Zero One festival and symposium. In this special issue we welcome submissions which investigate, provoke and explicate the California digital cultures from a variety of perspectives. We are interested in papers that approach this phenomenon in scholarly and practice-based ways. * What are the ways that social networks have been shaped by digital techniques? * How has the phenomenon of the digital entrepreneur evolved in the age of DIY sensibilities? * What are the ways that “new ideas” succeed or fail based on their dissemination amongst the elite, connected digerati, as opposed to their dissemination amongst less more quotidian communities? * What is the nature of the matrix of relationships between Hollywood entertainment, the military and digital technology? * Can the DIY culture explored in the pages of Make magazine produce its own markets? * How does the Apple Inc. culture of product design and development shape and inform popular culture? * How have the various interdisciplinary approaches undertaken at corporate research centers connected to universities such as Intel Berkeley Labs shaped digital cultures?

FROM: Maria Roussou DATE: March 4, 2008 SUBJECT: Call for Papers on Immersive Virtual, Mixed, or Augmented Reality Art for a Special Issue of the International Journal of Arts and Technology Call for Papers on Immersive Virtual, Mixed, or Augmented Reality Art for a Special Issue of the International Journal of Arts and Technology Important Dates Submission intent (title and 300-word abstract): 1 September, 2008 Deadline for full paper submission: 31 October, 2008 Review results returned to authors: February 29, 2009 Deadline for camera-ready papers: June 30, 2009 Guest Editors: Maria Roussou, makebelieve design & consulting, Greece Maurice Benayoun, Universite' Paris 1 Pantheon-Sorbonne, France For the past fifteen years, virtual reality (VR) and, more recently, mixed reality (MR) and augmented reality (AR) environments that immerse their participants in imaginary space, have emerged to define an area that blurs the lines between the seemingly different worlds of research, creativity, and technological practice, while exploring the interdependencies between the virtual and the physical. From the immersive, yet more esoteric, CAVE®-based projects of the mid-nineties to the contemporary open experiences spread out in virtual as well as physical space, creative VR/MR/AR applications are challenging the ways we perceive both digital art and the science and engineering behind them. Early enthusiasm with the use of projection-based display structures and the development of authoring solutions for application-building has brought a level of maturity, characterized by the emergence of new technical and conceptual forms. It is this particular moment in the evolution of immersive VR/MR/AR art practice that this special issue seeks to capture. Hence, in this special issue, we aim to bring forth the topic of immersive art in its current maturity, present the newest developments and explore its evolving forms, aspiring to shape a framework that will help us to develop the next generation of environments. Therefore, this special issue will not include contributions that deal solely with describing a narrow and specific piece of art or research without reference to a conceptual framework or a critical analysis; rather we encourage contributions that take a broad and integrative view of relevant topics, encompassing both theoretical and empirical perspectives of digitally-generated creative spaces. Submissions are invited that touch on but are not limited to the following themes: * Theoretical discourse on immersive virtual, mixed or augmented reality art environments. * Novel design concepts, applications, implementations and experiences from the actual deployment of immersive VR/MR/AR art applications * Research or empirical work addressing some of the open questions in the design of immersive art environments. For example: - Issues concerning creativity and aesthetics, visual depiction, storytelling and narrative, triggering other senses, embodiment, etc. - The fine line between designing for entertainment or for artistic pleasure - Issues in the design of interactivity, interfaces, and interaction methodologies, such as navigation by and tracking of multiple users, meaningful group interaction, the integration of multi-modal interfaces (e.g. tactile and haptic displays, sensing technologies), etc. - Issues concerning the design and development process of immersive artwork, such as the conceptualisation and collaboration challenges presented by multitalented interdisciplinary teams working together, the unavailability of resources and work environments, etc. - Issues in the deployment of different display configurations, sizes, and installations, as well as challenges in the practical use with diverse audiences (e.g., the need to guide people in experiencing the artwork) Contributions are encouraged from different disciplinary perspectives, including fine arts, computer science, performance art, theatre, design, architecture, communications and social sciences, philosophy, cognitive psychology, and enabling technologies. Contributions should take a broad and integrative view of relevant topics, rather than merely describing a narrow and specific piece of art or research.

We want to bring together a public eager to rediscover the world around them through play with designers interested in producing innovative new games and experiences. Oh yeah, and we want to have city-size fun. ABOUT THE FESTIVAL New games, new ways to play In 2006 the Come Out & Play Festival turned New York City into a playground for a weekend, then did the same for the city of Amsterdam in 2007. Hundreds of players gathered to play dozens different games across each city. Players raced through the night in a city-wide game of zombie tag. Friends faced off in life-sized Pong using only their ears to "hear" the ball. Payphones produced points and Tompkins Square Park became a putt-putt course. 200 people performed stunts to display on the Reuters screen in Times Square. It has been darn good and fascinating fun. Well, the festival is back. In June 2008, the New York will have the chance to come out and play again across the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Right now we're accepting applications for games in Come Out & Play 2008 in New York. Drawing international media attention, designers from around the world and hundreds of players, Come Out & Play features innovative work in the emerging world of street games, big games and pervasive games.

Where: Online and at Theater am Neumarkt in Zurich/Switzerland How: ONLINE PARTICIPATION!! Taboo Theater 2.0 is an Internet/Theater project by Ursula Endlicher, Ela Kagel and Anke Zimmermann, focusing on the question: How much taboo does art need? Historically it seems that theater has always embraced topics regarding the breaking or rethinking of ethical values in its society. What will a theater-production face when inviting a global society with diverse approaches towards art, culture, and societal habits, to participate in it? In the blog section of this piece we are inviting everyone to submit images, sound files, texts, videos or comments on taboos in art, theater, literature, or on the Web, which will then be part of a week-long theater production at Theater am Neumarkt/Chorgasse in Zurich from May 19-24, 2008. The Internet is our global stage and we are hoping that via the blog many different points of view will be conveyed, as they will co-determine the outcome of the piece. The structure and functionality of the blog will be translated onto the theater stage, where the collected content will be further worked on.

This year, Rhizome has expanded our scope, formerly focused strictly on Internet-based art to encompass the broad range of practices that fall under new media art. This includes projects that creatively engage new and networked technologies to works that reflect on the impact of these tools and media in a variety of forms. With this expanded format, commissioned works can take the final form of online works, performance, video, installation or sound art. Projects can be made for the context of the gallery, the public, the web or networked devices. This year, all applicants will be reviewed by a selected jury and several awards will be granted through Rhizome's membership in an open, community vote. Proposal submission takes place online.

Net.art 1998 - 2008" The Huarte Art Centre is pleased to announce the first net.art solo exhibition by Spanish artist Roberto Aguirrezabala. His works are focused in his two fetishes subjects: the concept of identity and the interpersonal relations in the age of Internet. His projects avoid the stereotype of the website, do not exhibit banners or navigational menu and manage to address the user towards unforeseen thematics developments. The show displays three net.art works. what:you:get (1999) is a project that spies the user and configure a profile of his/her personality, analyzing the identity signs that he/she generates while browsing the website. Badplayer (2002) is a project developed in a context of artificial intelligence in Internet, that uses chat to reveal the new problematics related to the communication. Easyfriend (2006) investigates hybrid formats of expanded cinema on the web, throughout the interactive story of an artist in crisis. With the help of conversational robots, mails, chats, passwords and virtual alter ego, Aguirrezabala obliges the users to interact with many characters without knowing if they are real persons or just bots. what:you:get http://www.whatyouget.net Badplayer http://www.badplayer.com Easyfriend http://www.easyfriend.org Roberto Aguirrezabala http://www.robertoaguirrezabala.com/ His work has been exhibited in numerous international festivals, exhibitions like net_condition (ZKM, Karlsruhe) and awarded, with acknowledgements such as the first prize for best work for net.art "X Canariasmediafest" (2002), the "Mobius Barcelona" award (2006), among others. He is currently investigating the development of fictional narrative systems of expanded cinema, using mediums between cinema, the installation, photography and Internet. The Huarte Contemporary Art Centre http://www.centrohuarte.es/ Located in Huarte (Navarra), 5 km from Pamplona, this new cultural space inaugurated in October 2007, is located barely an hour and a half from some of the most important contemporary art centres and museums such as the Guggenheim in Bilbao, the Artium in Vitoria, the future Krea Contemporary Expression Centre in the same city or what will be the future International Contemporary Culture Centre of San Sebastian. The Huarte Centre is the first cultural facility in Navarra, specifically conceived to house exhibitions and activities related to contemporary art, with special attention to the emerging international scene. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + 10.

FROM: James DATE: March 6, 2008 SUBJECT: Feed Lack Loop On Thursday March 6th at 11am SLT the Ars Virtua Artist in Residency program presents Feed Lack Loop with Micheal O'Connell. Feed Lack Loop arose out of experiments with the idea of Feedback. Using a live performer and an Avatar in the Online World Second Life, Micheal O’Connell inquires whether the concept of interactivity, so lauded in contemporary culture, is about Empowerment or possibly leads to its opposite: Control. Also the liveliness, or lack of it, in virtual space is brought into question. The event will be situated in two spaces simultaneously, Ars Virtua Gallery in Second Life and as a live projection and performance at Lighthouse. Other relevant pieces by the same artist may be incorporated or displayed. Collaborators on the project are: -Artist and Grey Area Curator Daniel Pryde-Jarman -Film Director and Script Writer: Partho Sen-Gupta -Performer: Naughty the Clown (a.k.a.
