Shopping Windows, Part I
Shopping Windows I is the first part of a two part ongoing online
exhibition with works newly commissioned by Telepolis. In part 1
the following works are presented (alphabetically):
* Giselle Beiguelman - <Content=No Cache>
* Matthew Fuller - BallPool
* Harwood/Scotoma.org - Waste_Words Their Weight &
Frequency in London's Municipial Rubbish

Shopping Windows - Net art after e-commerce
'Net art after the age of e-commerce and the death of net art' should be
the full subtitle of the exhibition 'Shopping Windows' which follows the
intertwining pathways of art on the Internet and the arrival and death of
e-commerce as we knew it. 2000 will be remembered as the year when the
I-Bubble burst. For others, disillisionment about the net started a while
earlier ago represented by manifestos and other declarations about 'The
End of Net Art'. Both, in the artistic and commercial realm we can only
look forward while still doing some damage assessment. We hope that
what can be seen as the end of an era has also cleared the air and gives
us the chance for a fresh start in 2001. The good old dialectic of
deconstruction and rebuild allows us to embrace irony in view of near
disaster and thereby stay optimistic.
Excerpt of curatorial statement. Full text:
http://www.heise.de/tp/english/kunst/nk/shopping/about.html
Curated by: Armin Medosch
Giselle Beiguelman - <Content=No Cache>
giselle@desvirtual.com
<Content=No Cache> is about the loss of inscription. It talks
about error messages.
Its point of departure is a curious tag, "content = no cache".
Placed in
the html code it updates the contents of any on line page, erasing
what
was written before. It announces a new condition of writing.
>From now on
it does not inscribe anymore. It just describes. Like Error
Messages. This
site, <Content=No Cache>, deals with the new dimension of error
messages and inquires
the paradoxes of on-line writing. It questions the famous html
publishing
software slogan, the acronym wysiwyg (what you see is what you
get) by
asking: is it? Integrated into "The Book of Errors", it also
documents the
relationship between webreaders and error messages. Those
messages are
aesthetically reworked and exhibited on new pages. By doing this,
the web
site creates a different context for them and inverts the relation
between
what is seen and what is read. In a few words, <Content=No
Cache> works as
if it would be possible to operate on the borderline between
reading and
vision, in order to explore what is supposed to be 'cyberliteracy'.
Matthew Fuller/Scotoma.org - BallPool
matthew fuller <matt@axia.demon.co.uk>
A figure is trapped inside a children's softplay structure. No door,
no window - vinyl and foam. Moving through the story sentence
by sentence, the user automatically links the text backwards and
forwards across its body. These links are generated by a word
frequency table mapping the occurrence of words read, shaping
and mirroring the processes occurring in the trapped figure. This
text contains 308 different words.
Harwood/Scotoma.org - Waste_Words Their Weight &
Frequency in London's Minicipial Rubbish
Harwood@scotoma.org
A street waste basket was cleaned at 8:00am on 8th February
2001 ( the 414th Anniversary of the beheading of Mary Queen of
Scots) 24 hours later the cleaner collected all the items left. Each
item was weighed and photographed. All of the words occurring
on every item of
rubbish were then transcribed. From this table of information the
frequency and weight of words disposed of per day in London has
been calculated.

<INTERNET GOVERNANCE - WER REGIERT DAS INTERNET?>
Im Internet: Freitag 6. April 2001, 9:30 -17:15 Uhr unter www.okb.de (deutsch/engl.)
Das Internet stellt Medienpolitiker, Regulierungsbehoerden und Nutzer vor neue Herausforderungen: Welche Akteure regulieren welche Sachverhalte im Internet? Wer bestimmt die technischen Strukturen und Standards? Und wer entscheidet über die Internetadressen - also letztlich darueber, wer wie im Netz überhaupt auffindbar ist?
Die Konferenz will das Fallbeispiel ICANN in einem erweiterten, inhaltlichen Kontext diskutieren und Empfehlungen für zukunftsfaehige Regulierungsstrukturen im Netz entwickeln.

From: Heroes <heroes@cqm.co.uk>
Subject: PRESS RELEASE: SEE YOU IN THE NEXT WAR
See You in the Next War:
A chemical generation war story
A film that’s more Plane-spotting than Train spotting:
See You in the Next War is a 'Chemical generation war story'.
A rockumentary portrait of the lives of a generation who have grown up,
fought, resisted and simply survived a decade of war in the Balkans. A
generation who fully embraced the punk and DIY ethos and who refused to be
bullied either by an oppressive regime, or by the bombs of NATO.
Humans against killing sounds like junkies against dope:
See You in the Next War is an-all digital documentary feature that tells a
story about the war in Yugoslavia from the perspective of the staff,
friends and listeners of the rebel radio station, Belgrade radio B92.
Fuck them and their law:
Filmed both outside and inside Serbia over the past 18 months, See You In
the Next War is both a shocking and at times shockingly absurd portrayal
of life both during and in between war-time.
With a musical sound-track that includes contributions from Serbia’s top
bands and DJ’s, See You in the Next War is genuinely independent,
guerrilla film making at it’s most daring, provocative and passionate.
A must-see for anyone who believes that there always is another side to
any war, other than the one portrayed by the mainstream global media or by
state propaganda.
Accept NO Borders!:
See You in the Next War is a film that not only talks-the-talks, but also
walks-the-walk in it’s search for the truth. It is a celebration of
dissent and reaffirmation of the kind of free-spirit that believes that
there is a need in times of crisis to accept no borders in search of the
truth.
The revolution will be televised and stage-managed:
Filming inside Serbia was undertaken both covertly by Director/Producer
Doug Aubrey with a small digital camcorder and also with the co-operation
of the staff of the B92 TV dept and includes extracts from Zoran Kesic’s
remarkable street-level footage of the October 5th uprising.
Adopting a stylish and innovative format, that fully embraces the creative
potential of digital film making; See You in the Next War reaches it’s
spectacular (and contradictory) climax with the popular up-rising against
the Milosevic regime and the return of some of the staff to the original
B92 station in central Belgrade, for the first time since the NATO bombing
and the station’s take-over.
See You in the Next War:
The film’s concluding moments are both a sobering warning to anyone in the
west who believes that the war in the Balkans is over and also a timely
reminder of the need for a genuinely independent media voice to continue
to be heard not just in Serbia, but world-wide.
Preview copies of the film, along with information about the film’s
producers and screening/sales opportunities are available from:
heroes@cqm.co.uk
A Freedom fighter film in association with: Pictorial Heroes
(Scotland), ANEM/B92 TV (Yugoslavia), The DvD Studio Skopje (Macedonia)

Subject: RELEASE: APRIL 3, 2001
[Please hit Reply if you wish to receive a Report on the Pirelli INTERNETional
Award]
TO AN ITALIAN PROFESSSOR THE V EDITION
OF THE PIRELLI INTERNETional AWARD
"More than 700 works evaluated. The US space agency NASA wins the special section
prize for scientific information."
Rome, Italy, April 3rd 2001 - Professor Roberto Fieschi of the University of
Parma (Italy) is the winner of the V edition of the Pirelli INTERNETional Award,
the first international multimedia competition launched by Pirelli in 1996 and
carried out entirely on the Internet (http://www.pirelliaward.com). The awards
have been assigned today in Rome, Italy, during a ceremony which was attended
by Marco Tronchetti Provera, Chairman and CEO of the Pirelli Group, the Italian
Prime Minister Giuliano Amato, the President of the Award's Jury Umberto Colombo
and Carlo Massarini, a journalist specialized in new technologies and anchorman
of Italian TV.
"The Pirelli INTERNETional Award", underlined Marco Tronchetti Provera, "aims
at being a concrete contribution of the Group to the 'on-line' diffusion of scientific
and technological culture, and it is one of the elements of the great e-Pirelli
Project which is transforming the company into a real e-company, capable of making
use of new technologies to manage internal processes, develop innovative businesses
and reap all the opportunities offered by the Net".
After having evaluated the more than 700 works of the fifth edition, the Award's
International Jury has awarded first prize of the value of 25,000 Euros to Professor
Fieschi for the work "From Silicon to Computer" (http://maccw.sns.it/technet/),
created in collaboration with the National Institute for the Physics of Matter
(INFM). The Jury awarded it "for an outstanding presentation of a journey through
the Science of Materials, one of the cutting-edge branches of the on-going scientific
and technological progress."
Second prize went to the American Internet-company Brainpop.com, for the homonymous
Website (http://www.brainpop.com), which consists of an on-line multimedia encyclopedia,
with over 150 movies on science, technology and health. The prize has been assigned
for "the clarity of language, the richness of animations, the wide variety of
subjects illustrated, which make of 'BrainPop' a product that will be much appreciated
by the youth throughout the world."
A young Hungarian programmer from Budapest, Jozsef Tellér has gained third prize,
of the value of 10,000 Euros, with the multimedia project "Audiology" (http://web.interware.hu/banan/audio/),
which "makes an excellent use of multimedia technology in explaining the functioning
of the human ear and the field of audiology."
The other prizes awarded today went to "Virtual Cell" (USA) and "Mini-Beasts"
(UK) for the School Section, and to "The adventures of Piera" (Italy) for the
Environment Section, whilst the American space agency NASA has won the Scientific
Information Section Prize.
The Pirelli INTERNETional Award, open to all Internet users world-wide, assigns
prizes for over 60,000 Euros to the best works on the diffusion of scientific
and technological culture created with multimedia tools, and primarily on the
Internet. All entries are examined by an International Jury, chaired by Professor
Colombo, which includes amongst others Nobel Prizewinner Ilya Prigogine, EU's
General Director George Metakides and the Editor-in-Chief of "New Scientist"
magazine Alun Anderson.
The complete list of winners, regulations and on-line registration form are available
on the Website http://www.pirelliaward.com.

Subject: 7 interactive songs
Dear friend, dear member of the fan-club,
You have always known me as a web superstar, but now you will now
discover me as a pop singer. I made music and I composed these 7 songs
for you.
They have no words, no title, but I am sure you will understand their
meaning. As tiny as they are, each of them is a complete song, a whole
piece of interactive music which you can also see and touch. Their
interaction is not so much in the mouse clicks than in your own reactions.
The last of these 7 songs will be my very last song. You may recall it,
play it again, but it will link you to nowhere. Its lack of
interactivity will leave you alone with your own reactions.
