In the expanding global economy, the Asia- Pacific is a vital territory

Melbourne welcomed the AsiaPacific Economic Summit with speakers John
Howard (Australian Prime Minister) and Seattle's Bill Gates with 10,000
strong blockade around Melbourne's Crown Casino, growing to 30,000 and

ABOUT THE WORKS

"Alternumerics" by Paul Chan
MEDIUM: Web (with font installation)
URL: http://www.nationalphilistine.com/alternumerics/
Author's Decription: Alternumerics presents work based on a collection of
fonts that explore the fissure between language, interactivity, and
translation. The fonts, "Self portrait as a font", "Sexual healing / shift
for harassment", and "The future must be sweet - after Fourier" transform
the traditional form and function of computer based fonts by replacing the
individual letters and numbers (or the alphanumerics) with textual
fragments which connect and signify what is typed in a radically different
way. Each fontpiece is accompanied by another piece of work that uses the
font to explore the relationship between what is written, what is
translated, and fundamentally, what is communicated when we use language
to describe the slipperiness of the Self, the intangibility of Desire, or
the sheer possibility of a Politics of the future.

"Nepabunna" by geniwate
MEDIUM: CD-ROM
Author's Description: The work uses remote sensing data from the Landsat 5
satellite as the starting point, then progresses to a mythopoeia of
contemporary technology (using Australian Aboriginal themes) and finally
cites string theory as an example of the nexus between science/beauty/truth.
Poetry and digital media combine to examine this nexus.
- ---------------
"Windsound" by John Cayley
MEDIUM: CDROM
Author's Description: 'windsound' is a 'text movie' animated by transliteral
morphs (textual morphing based on letter replacements) through a sequence of
nodal texts.
'windsound' is based on original texts by myself, plus my own translation of
a Song period lyric, 'Cadence: Like a Dream' by Qin Guan (1049-1100). It is
designed to be viewed as an all-but-linear movie. Once started, it plays
through a sequence taking about 20 minutes. While it plays continuously, the
text which you read (where not composed) is algorithmically generated. (In
later, still unfinished pieces such text movies are navigable, becoming
similar to so-called 'obejct movies'.)
While the piece has narrative and fictional qualities, it is submitted as
poetry since I write out of a tradition of innovative poetry, and because
the piece addresses linguistic structures at a granular level: as literal
art.

CODE
Four letters.
A word which goes from one discipline to another. Which plays with limits.
Computer code, genetical code, law code, codes of behaviour, dress
codes...
And when we think we've grasped it, it seems to be the opposite of what we
expected. We use codes to program data and to solve genetic sequences. We
call for code to inflict a penalty or to mention open source project.
Every time this word appears, it raises questions about norms and
deviations.
When talking of the computer, the notion of code implies revelation as
well as mystification of information. Is there a way out of the matrix?
For its fifth edition, Jonctions, the new media festival of the
association Constant, will focus on the idea of code: its definition, its
history, and above all the different interpretations of the word code:
genetic code, social code, gender codes...
Jonctions5 invites you to drift into an arborescence of films and videos,
lectures and demos, performances and workshops, scientific experiences and
concerts.
OPENING 04 /05 Dansaert Centrum 20:00
LECTURE
Andrew Hodges (UK-Lecturer at the Wadham College, Oxford University) "Alan
Turing, The Enigma" Andrew Hodges UK (mathematician, Research Fellow of
Wolfson College, Oxford University) will present a web of connections
illustrating the life and work of Alan Turing, the founder of computer
science. Alan Turing lived from 1912 to 1954; his observations, as
mathematician, philosopher, and openly gay man, now have more meaning than
ever before. As Turing foresaw, the concepts of mind and machine,
communication and codes, sexuality and society, rules and freedom, are now
all in flux http://www.synth.co.uk/

Dansaert Centrum
wed - sun 13:00 -19:00
Harun Farocki, "I thought I was seeing convicts", Frankreich/Deutschland,
2000, video, color/b/w, 27min Farocki's film is an assembly of images from
video surveillance cameras in supermarkets and prisons, scenes from
feature and documentary films. It shows the degredation of man as he
becomes a mere object of control, questioning the point at which
protection becomes control. http://www.farocki-film.de/

VIDEOS 05+06 /05
Dansaert Centrum
During the VJ5 and KFDA opening week-end, Constant invites you to 2 video
projections. The first is made of 3 videos staging technology fantasy and
itching. The second is dedicated to the Valins Experiment, conducted by
Isabelle Stengers and Vincianne Despret.
13:00 +17:00 Programme 1
Anouk De Clercq Whoosh, B, video, 2001, 12 min - Première
Motion pictures, motion graphics, music interplay in this poetic reflection
on our accelerated age.
Simon Pummell Blinded By Light, UK, video, 2000, 7 min
The story of a man's struggle to learn to see.
Craig Baldwin Spectres of the Spectrum, USA, 1999, 16mm, 93 min
This science-fiction allegory traces a history of media technology from its
early days to a 21st century "New Electromagnetic Order" that threatens to
take total control of our lives.
http://www.othercinema.com
15:30 Programme 2
Didier Demorcy Expérience Valins
Isabelle Stengers B, 1999, video, 50 min
Vincianne Despret
The Valins Experiment was conceived with the aim of exploring and
elucidating the multiple and confused relationships between body,
consciousness, and situations able to produce emotional reactions. It shows
that synthetic emotion is no more genuine or false than live emotion.

SOFTWARE WORKSHOPS
Workshop 1.1 Recompile with "_deprecations" 8 to12 /05
Dansaert Centrum 14:00 - 19:00
Which code for today ?
1 Open Forms of Collaboration
Programming is connected to desire. As techno users we are too often limited
by the computer in the realisation of our projects. Code writing allows us
to modify this: what do WE want the machine to do, what is OUR project? We
can't do it alone. To achieve complex realisations, we have to invent new
forms of collaboration, new forms of practice, and engage firmly in an
alternative approach towards intellectual property.
08 05 Introduction
The workshop will begin with an open discussion with Xavier Le Roy FR.
Xavier Le Roy is a dancer, but has also trained as a molecular biologist.
His experience as a performer and scientist made him suspicious of the
notion of authorship and shaped his interest in the production of attainable
utopias.
08 +09 05 Sounds In the Distance
Udo Noll D said: I am not a programmer but an artist that can program. He
has a long experience in projects where technology and collaborative art
interact. Recently he decided to produce a continuous sound stream live on
the net: someone walking with a minidisc can send the surrounding sound to a
server that adds it to a dynamic database of audio samples.

and the body politic, and the politics of transforming artistic practices,
as well as to develop an awareness of how the theatrical and physical
vocabularies of performance using digital technologies develop at the same
time as the critical and theoretical.

http://www.comatonse.com/listening/interstices.html
Terre Thaemlitz' newest electroacoustique release, "Interstices" (meaning,
"small spaces or cracks between objects"), ostensibly presents itself as an
album about process. In particular, the accompanying text discusses two
processes called 'framing' and 'systolic composition.' In particular, this
project is interested in using 'interstitial' sounds andcompositional
processes as metaphors for cultural processes which exist between dominant
binarisms of sexuality, gender and ethnicity.
The compositions in "Interstices" raise issues of transgenderism (including
intersexuality and transsexuality), Queer pansexuality, identity politics,
and the essentialist dangers of the disenfranchised 'homecoming'
fantasy.Thaemltiz also discusses the frustrations of developing audio
discourse in a marketplace whichrepeatedly restricts fair-use sampling,
arguing that musicians should be able to use sampling in the same manner
that writers use quotations with footnotes. As usual, he undertakes these
discussions with a critical (and at times campy) eye to his own actions as
a producer.
Terre thaemlitz is a former "Underground Grammy Award" winning DJ from New
York's Transexual clubs, and founder of Comatonse Recordings in 1993..

Calculated Cinema is a seven part series that focuses its attention on the
pioneering use of computers and electronics in experimental films. It looks
at the creation of new procedures in animation and, explores movement, light
and synchronicity between music and image, weaving a fabric of
cross-references. These concerns range from the first avant-garde groups, to
examples in more recent work, from the binary geometry of calculated images
to other arithmetical applications based on stills, and other principles of
systematic composition. The juxtaposition of different techniques, eras,
aesthetic directions, and very diverse natural images serve to establish
both the relationships and contrasts that pertain to this field, and which
can be observed in the works of artist-film-makers as Oskar Fischinger, Mary
Ellen Bute, John and James Whitney, Jordan Belson, Peter Kubelka, Werner
Nekes, Larry Cuba and Robert Darroll.

Calculated cinema will be introduced by Eugeni Bonet (SP) writer, film

DISCUSSION 26 /05
Dansaert Centrum 16:00-18:00
A media-space in Brussels: access, workspace and education
Debate on the need for a public media-space in Brussels. How, where, with
who and for whom? Questions will be subject to public debate between
experienced people from Brussels and abroad who will present models and
ideas, and locals of different practices such as new media, education,
artist, youth centers, activists and permanent education workers, who will
talk about their need for such a space.
If we consider the cultural potential of digital media, research and
exchange, such a space cannot be limited to a consultation-space for video,
cd-rom and internet work, but also as an education space for workshops and
presentations, a meeting place where people from different practices such
as socio-cultural, artistic, research & development can meet , exchange
information and know-how. Along with a physical space, one must investigate
the possibilities of a web-platform to give access to information,
education
and exchange.

Subject: Station Rose Webcast Lounge at Art Frankfurt
dear Gunafa Netizen,

1.0 STATION ROSE Webcast-Lounge auf der Art Frankfurt
27.4. - 1.5.2001
- -----------------------------------------------------
http://www.stationrose.com
http://www.artfrankfurt.de
Konzept deutsch.
Es ueberrascht nicht, dass zu einem Zeitpunkt, an dem die Euphorie des
e-commerce nuechternen Fakten weichen muss, auch gleich die net-art für
tot erklaert wird. Dabei wird bei allen Zusammenhaengen zumeist auf die
Unterschiede vergessen. Beide nutzen das Medium Internet, allerdings nach
ihren je eigenen spezifischen Logiken. Kurzzeiterfolge gelten auch bei
e-commerce eher als Ausnahme, der Langzeiterfolg der net-art ist schon
heute in der Fachwelt der Kunst unbestritten. Die net-art ist der juengste
evolutionaere Schritt der sogenannten Medienkunst, die konsequent seit den
60-er Jahren die alten Denk- und Weltmodelle hinter sich gelassen hat.
Station Rose versteht sich in der Kontinuitaet der Medienkunst, die in
rascher Abfolge diverse Begriffe von Kunst und Praktiken generiert hat.
Knapp formuliert, handelt es sich dabei um eine Kunst, die der Expansion
bezueglich Mobilitaet des Menschen, des symbolischen Kapitals und der
Medialisierung von Welt via Telemedien in tatsaechlich zeitgenoessischer
Weise entspricht. Medienkunst, die sich selbst an der Schnittstelle
zwischen Kunst, Technologie und Gesellschaft konzeptualisiert hat, ist eine
avancierte Kunst, die heute eng mit den aktuellen Ideen und technischen
Entwicklungen in der net-culture verbunden ist. In diesem Zusammenhang hat
Station Rose seit 1999 das STReamen von Daten zu einer Grundlage der
eigenen Arbeit gemacht.
STR ist seit 1991 online. Seit 1.1999 finden regelmaessig Webcastings auf
<www.stationrose.com. statt. 2000 schlugen wir der Art Frankfurt das Konzept
der Webcast Lounge vor.
Station Rose (Elisa Rose: Visuals, Gary Danner: Sounds) gestaltet und
kuratiert auf der Art Frankfurt 2001 einen 110m2 grossen Messestand als
Webcast-Lounge. Diese ist sowohl als begehbare Medien-Installation, als
auch als Echtzeit-Sendestation erlebbar.
Das installative Setting der Lounge und die diversen Computer mit ihren
windows und doors in den cyberspace stellen dabei keineswegs einen
Gegensatz dar. Denn es ist gerade das Surfen zwischen den unterschiedlichen
Wirklichkeitsbereichen und den entsprechenden Moeglichkeiten sozialer
Interaktion, das den Thrill der sparten-, genre- und raumuebergreifenden
electronic-culture ausmacht.
An den Abenden und Nachmittagen waehrend der Messe werden Livesendungen von
der Lounge aus in das Internet geSTReamt, beziehungsweise werden
Live-STReams von ausgesuchten internationalen Kuenstlern und Kuenstlergruppen
aus dem World Wide Web in die Lounge projiziert.
Am ersten Abend, zur Vernissage, wird STR eine audio-visuelle Performance
STReamen, sowie um 15h ihren Vortrag beim Kongress des Festivals EMAF von
der Lounge in Frankfurt aus streamen. Weiters werden Gaeste zu Wort kommen.
Es wird eine speziell gestaltete Sitz-Lounge eingerichtet, deren Module je
nach Situation neu angeordnet werden koennen. Destillate aus dem Fluss der
Streams materialisieren sich zu Stoff, Print Outs, Sound Loops.
Projektionen aus dem Internet tauchen die Webcast-Lounge
in das passende Fluessig-Design, welches von STR & Gaesten jederzeit geaendert
und upgedated werden kann.
Das Ambiente der Lounge traegt die hypermediale Handschrift von Station
Rose.
Elisa Rose übernimmt die visuelle Gestaltung der Projektionen,
der Stoff-Produktion und der Installation, Gary Danner das Sounddesign.
Hans Romanov betreut die Info-theke in der Lounge.
1.1 STATION ROSE Webcast-Lounge at Art Frankfurt
27.4. - 1.5.2001
- -------------------------------------------------
(short concept english.)
STATION ROSE Webcast-Lounge
location: 1.1 F71
http://www.stationrose.com
http://www.artfrankfurt.de
Station Rose/STR (Elisa Rose & Gary Danner) create and curate the
Webcast Lounge, set up in a booth of 110 m2. The Lounge can be experienced
both as an accessible media-installation as well as a real-time webcasting
station.
The artists will be present.
STR had noticed that net art, especially streaming/webcasting, has never
been present as a topic at art fairs. So STR decided to suggest this as a
topic to Art Frankfurt, thus being the first art fair to make room for art
in the net.
STATION ROSE Webcast-Lounge
Between 6 and 8 p.m. there will be a live STReam from the Lounge, and/or
live streams from selected artists/groups/stations will be projected on the
walls of the Lounge.
At the evening of the opening STR will STReam a live audio-visual performance
>from the Webcast Lounge. For 5 days, visitors will have the opportunity to
attend live webcasts or simply relax in the Lounge and watch archived
webcast files, selected net art, and the flowmotion of the installation while
listening to changing soundloops over the P.A.
The Webcast Lounge has been fitted out with specially designed seats.
Projections are beamed around the room, bathing it in a most fitting fluid
design, which will be influenced by the artists, the visitor and the web.
This installation is an audio-visual installation and a place to hang out
at the same time, a further development of STRs Gunafa Clubbings/
Internet Lounges, begun in 1992. Elisa Rose is in charge of the projections,
the installation, the visual design, Gary Danner handles the sounds. Hans
Romanov welcomes the visitors at the info-counter. The visitor can choose
between a selection of 40 pieces of current net art on a workstation in the
Lounge.
Before and during the art fair STR act as artists and curators,
selecting net art projects beforehand. Different to the usual curating model,
artists invite artists, and the Webcast Lounge is a media installation,
a piece of art in itself. Some artists will be invited to STReam their content
live into the Lounge from around the globe, others will perform live and
present their work in person at the Webcast Lounge.

Working in a factory in the US as a physical worker, I came back every
day with bruises and cuts over my entire body. I was obsessed with them,
because while one wound had healed, another would be formed. Looking at
my self, naked in the mirror, I cannot recall the period when I was
without these marks.
The obsession was so large that that I decided to register every damage that my body would suffer.
The photos present records of the body injuries from the work. They are
selected not because of the esthetic power but because of the trivial story
that stands behind these images. - Carol Cho

KARENINA.IT (poesia in funzione fàtica)
Nel modello delle funzioni di Jakobson fàtico è l'uso della lingua che
persegue lo scopo di tener aperto e funzionante il canale tra gli
interlocutori. Tra arte e critica, tra happening e performance telematica,
Karenina è un luogo di aggregazione virtuale sul tema della scrittura e
delle tecnologie, nel quale confluiscono esperienze di artisti, curatori,
teorici internazionali, in una rete che conta migliaia di contatti nel
mondo. Index:
