We have varied our content widely in recent months to include any document or object that seems to fall under the category "dead letter." This does not mean submissions must have a "dead letter" theme or any stylistic feel in particular. They just have to be dead letters of some sort. To give a better idea of our varied content, our current update includes not only the usual fare of fiction, non-fiction and poetry, but some twisted and comical correspondence between one man, Daniel Arp, and two corporations: StarKist and Amazon.com. ("Shall I shop and compare thee to a summer's day sale at Wal-Mart?" he asks of Amazon's new Lawn & Product Store. "Thy lawn product prices are more moderate, and more fair.") Next month, the centerpiece of our issue will be a serialized full-length memoir by Margo Perin narrowly rejected for publication by Simon & Schuster and two other publishing houses due to office politics. Then in August, we will be memorializing a late, great master among dead letter writers, Robert Lansberry, whose tireless correspondence with the FBI and Walter Mondale led to his arrest and acquisition of the label "chronic letter writer" from government officials. In the end, however, he triumphed: he obtained his long-sought-after FBI file through Freedom of Information laws, and a copy of this file has been retained and will be excerpted by our office. So you see, we are looking for anything interesting, anything rejected. We are not looking for works you feel were worthy of rejection, however. And we are not looking only for works that have been rejected for publication. Those never-shown, long-held-dear manuscripts in your locked desk drawers will do us just fine. Get your keys. We won't tear them to shreds. And we'll actually read them. Send submissions to this e-mail account or to: The Dead Letter Office P.O. Box 81236 Pittsburgh, PA 15217 Help us celebrate the Dead Letter writer in all of us and submit. Wouldn't you like to see your name in darks? Next update: July 23. Keep those letters pouring in!

It is addressed to researchers, professionals and students with either a scientific or humanistic background. Tutorials of pratical and theoretical interest will be held by highly qualified art historians, scientists, experts in new technologies and artists. The aim of the school is to favour cross-fertilization and live discussion of viewpoints amongst all involved. A Web Site will be made available a couple of months before the beginning of the workshop in order to collect contributions from scholars from different disciplines on problematic issues proposed by the Scientific Committee The main topics of the workshop will include: -History and theory of Electronic Arts -experiences in applying digital technologies in the in the visual arts. -Visual arts programs and Media labs: a selected survey Please, visit our web site for more details about the program http://www.cs.unibo.it/vant2000/ enjoy R - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - From: "g r e g o r y . c h a t o n s k y" <rank@incident.net> To: "Gregory Chatonsky" <rank@incident.net> Subject: INVITATION_sous-terre_dans_le_m=E9tro=2C_dans_le_r=E9seau=2C_par_ votre_anonymat?

Ses tunnels, des voyageurs qui passent et repassent. Toute une vie que nous oublions sous les rues. SOUS-TERRE ne ressemble à aucun autre site. Le cybernaute n'y vient pas pour consulter des informations. SOUS-TERRE se dérobe à l'instrumentalité du Net. Il faut changer de ryhtme, ralentir, s'arrêter, suspendre un instant le flux du cyberespace. Les images y sont obscures pour que la clarté du jour et l'obscurité de la nuit influent sur ce qui est visible à l'écran. La navigation imprévisible est un sampling continu, on ne sait jamais sur quoi on va tomber. C'est un labyrinthe dans lequel il s'agit de se perdre volontairement. SOUS-TERRE est un lieu vivant qui évolue au cours du temps. Au départ un espace vide, les internautes viennent y laisser des messages email, morceaux d'une fiction dont nul ne connaît la fin et qui se constituera progressivement au fil des interactions. Chaque partie a un nombre de places limitées. Lorsqu'elles seront toutes remplies par les utilisateurs, l'ouvre existera. SOUS-TERRE est un espace narratif et u-topique qui relie le métro au Web : un réseau où l'anonymat permet les rencontres et les surprises. Nous sommes de passage sur le réseau, nous allons d'un endroit à un autre et nous sommes plusieurs, à différents endroits de la planète, à être connectés en même temps au même site. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ SOUS-TERRE est produit par la RATP (mission du centenaire), hébergé par le Centre International de Création Vidéo, conçu et réalisé par Grégory Chatonsky Pour toutes informations complémentaires / For all additional informations subnetwork@cicv.fr Dossier de presse disponible / Press kit available http://www.cicv.fr/creation_artistique/online/sous-terre/barre/infos/htm/pre ss.htm +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Gregory Chatonsky rank@incident.net http://www.incident.net tel : +33 (0)1 43 61 46 65 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Autres travaux « sur » Internet / Others art works « on » Internet INCIDENT OF THE LAST CENTURY 1999 - SARAJEVO = http://www.cicv.fr/incident/ FRONTIERES DEPAYSEES V 2.0 = http://www.cicv.fr/3rives/ LA VITESSE DU SILENCE = http://www.incident.net/works/vitesse/silence/ NERVURES = http://www.incident.net/works/nervures/ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - From: onestar@onestar.net Date: Fri, 23 Jun 2000 13:17:58 +0200 Subject: Paul-Armand Gette at onestar press collection of books by artists Onestar Press "a collection of books by artists": Paul-Armand Gette, "Voyage" [Image] Check out this new book at and see the original photo by Paul-Armand Gette that accompanies the 30 deluxe copies of "Voyage" http://www.onestar.net/getteweb Regular edition:100 French Francs Deluxe edition signed and numbered: 700 French Francs ------------------------------------------------- For previous and forthcoming titles of our collection of books by artists please go to: http://www.onestar.net/press order at: onestar@onestar.net ------------------------------------------------- http://onestar.net http://artistbookarchive.com - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - From: "SMART Project Space" <smartps@xs4all.nl> Subject: Opening new SMART Project Space Date: Fri, 23 Jun 2000 16:51:08 +0200 SMART Project Space | 1e Constantijn Huygensstraat 20, Amsterdam SMART Project Space requests the pleasure of your company at the opening of: the new SMART Project Space (400m2) with cinema (100m2), mediacafé (140m2) and 30 studios for visual artists.
