xxxxx_temporary_structure final actions CTM09 31 January 20:00+
by Derek Holzer 30 Jan '09

30 Jan '09

Invitation for external observers to join the final actions and activation of xxxxx_temporary_structure CTM09 at 20:00 [31st January] in: KUNSTRAUM KREUZBERG BETHANIEN Mariannenplatz 2 10997 Berlin-Kreuzberg Public transport: U8 > Kottbusser Tor S3, S4, S8, S9 > S-BHF Ostbahnhof 10 minutes walking distance from MAO. ///// Previous description: xxxxx temporary structure presents the expansion of both known and less familiar constructive procedures and apparatus, for example software (Pure Data, Python) and hardware (waves, circuits, simulation) into novel territory. Software becomes script and social pragmatics, hardware expands into optics, architecture, graffiti, elaborate kinetics and novel interfaces to the world addressing biologic and physical processes; a play of light, resonance and transmission. The relationship between structure and system is playfully opened, with the modelling of systems as core activity within the temporary lab space; simulation within both code and analogue electronics, the embedding of an internal observer allowing for a play with agents and agency. A concern with materiality and construction forms the base for an energetic examination of all manner of diagrams, public interface (reading space, discussion), bio-computing (plant life, EEG), world interface (practical endophysics), everyday technologies (light, food), code, transitions and translations. Such disciplines branch out mushroom like, revealing instabilities and new structures across nine days, in one space, publicly accessible throughout. xxxxx temporary structure is inherently experimental and interdisciplinary, inviting practitioners and artists who are well able to prise open the gaps between reified disciplines to actively create new social and constructive apparatus within the xxxxx space. A playful laboratory is proposed which does not mark boundaries between forms and between disciplines - which rather exposes and opens up social and artistic structures for sublime experience. Participants: Oswald Berthold, Alexei Blinov, Lindsay Brown, Verena Friedrich, Lars Lundehave Hansen, Derek Holzer, Martin Howse, Jonathan Kemp, Yunchul Kim, Martin Kuentz, Walter Langelaar, Shintaro Miyazaki, Rob Mullender, Julian Oliver, Otto Roessler, Bengt Sjolen, Danja Vassiliev, Dorotha Walentynowicz

New Book: FLOSS+Art
by propaganda＠goto10.org 23 Jan '09

23 Jan '09

echo -n "sorry for ><," while true; do echo -n " please >>" done -- WHAT: What does Free and Open Source software (FLOSS) provide to artists and designers - beyond just free alternatives to established tools from Photoshop to Final Cut? "FLOSS+Art" is the first book to answer this question. It shows how the value of Free Software lies in its differences and creative challenges, as opposed to out-of-the-box and off-the-shelf solutions; how it allows to work and collaborate differently with computers, and therefore enable different kinds of art and design. The Internet - whose infrastructure is based on free software and open standards - is an obvious example of such an adaptable, collaborative artistic medium. "FLOSS+Art" also covers more traditional artistic domains such as graphic and audiovisual design, and how they shift from customer-centric to community-driven work. FLOSS+Art critically reflects on the growing relationship between Free Software philosophy, open content and digital art. It provides first-hand insight into its social, political and economic myths and realities. With contributions by: Fabianne Balvedi, Florian Cramer, Sher Doruff, Nancy Mauro Flude, Olga Goriunova, Dave Griffiths, Ross Harley, Martin Howse, Shahee Ilyas, Ricardo Lafuente, Ivan Monroy Lopez, Thor Magnusson, Alex McLean, Rob Myers, Alejandra Maria Perez NuÃ±ez, Eleonora Oreggia, oRx-qX, Julien Ottavi, Michael van Schaik, Femke Snelting, Pedro Soler, Hans Christoph Steiner, Prodromos Tsiavos, Simon Yuill.

xxxxx_temporary_structure CTM 2009 friday 23 january
by Derek Holzer 22 Jan '09

22 Jan '09

xxxxx_temporary_structure CTM 2009 opens tomorrow, Friday 23 January, with an open lab and actions/performances from several of the participants beginning at 19:30 and running until 22:00. The laboratory will continue to be public every day until 31 January from 12:00-22:00 daily. There will be similar actions completing the lab cycle on the final day, Saturday 31 January, at 19:00. LOCATION KUNSTRAUM KREUZBERG BETHANIEN Mariannenplatz 2 10997 Berlin-Kreuzberg Public transport: U8 > Kottbusser Tor S3, S4, S8, S9 > S-BHF Ostbahnhof 10 minutes walking distance from MAO. http://www.kunstraumkreuzberg.de/ ABOUT xxxxx_temporary_structure CTM 2009 Tracing a clear line of development from both xxxxx_workshops: [in]tolerance during CTM 2008 examining the material basis of technology and a series of life coding events in Norway and Germany, xxxxx hosts an experimental nine day structure widening the scope of construction and constructivism to embrace the social and economic structures of production and performance. Public interface is to be made explicit, inviting participation, visit and conversation. xxxxx temporary structure presents the expansion of both known and less familiar constructive procedures and apparatus, for example software (Pure Data, Python) and hardware (waves, circuits, simulation) into novel territory.

15 Jan '09

hi all although most of the users are not lurking on the list, i post it here anyway: the netpd server (the machine, not the service) is currently down due to harddisk failure. i hope to be able to fix it in the next (hopefully) days or (hopefully not) weeks. roman ___________________________________________________________ Der frühe Vogel fängt den Wurm.
