Die Grenzen zwischen Kunst und Wissenschaft werden selten so spannungsreich
bearbeitet wie im Werk des Kuenstlers Joe Davis, der sich seit 20 Jahren
mit den Moeglichkeiten des Codierens und Decodierens der menschlichen
Biologie beschaeftigt. Beruehmt wurde er vor allem durch Projekte, in denen
er in die DNA von Kleinstlebewesen Botschaften eincodierte, um diese dann
in den Weltraum zu schicken. Freilich laesst Davis selber offen, ob diese
transgenischen Botschaften eher fuer ausserirdische Intelligenzen bestimmt
sind, oder vielleicht doch eher die menschliche Selbstreflektion befoerdern
sollen. Davis gibt eine Einführung in das genetische Codieren von DNA und
zeigt Projekte wie 'The Microvenus Icon' und 'Microbe Fishing'. Er ist
Research Affiliate am Massachusetts Institute of Technology
(Cambridge/Mass.).

Rarely have the borders between art and science been transgressed with such
intensity as in the work of the US-American artist Joe Davis who has dealt
with the possibilities of coding and decoding of human biology for the past
20 years. He came to fame mainly through projects in which he encoded
messages into the DNA of micro-organisms in order to shoot them into space.
Surely, Davis leaves it open whether these transgenic messages are meant
for extra-terrestrial intelligent beings, or whether they are a way of
speeding up human self-reflection. - Davis will give an introduction to the
genetic coding of DNA and will present projects like 'The Microvenus Icon'
and 'Microbe Fishing'. Joe Davis is a Research Affiliate at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Cambridge/Mass.).

Call for participation!
RADIOTOPIA
Radioactive Communi(ty)cation
on air - on line - on site
on air: OE1 Kunstardio, Radio Oesterreich International (SW), Radio
1476 (MW) and others...
September 8th, 11:05 pm CEST
September 10th, 11:05 pm CEST - 05:00 am CEST
on line: http://www.aec.at/radiotopia
http://kunstradio.at
on site: September 8th - 12th, Ars Electronica Festival,
Klangpark@Brucknerhaus, Linz, a.o.
Radio in its many forms is still the most globally accessible medium for
both local and long-range communication and information sharing. In the
digital age, it is often dismissed as an outdated technology, and yet
millions of people turn on and tune in worldwide. Despite the current
configuration of radio (often limited by commercialization and state
regulation), radio has great potential as a tool that can reach out across
cities and remote areas alike as a means for building local and
international community. Transmitters can be easily assembled from readily
available technologies, enabling radio to operate independently and to be
community-based, experimental, political; giving voice to those who are
rarely or never heard in the mounting commercial static of corporate
globalization. These transmitters may not have a wide range but when
networked by any and all means available, their impact can be amplified.
Radiotopia will be, literally, a radio-place; instead of the homogenized
drone of corporatized globalization, Radiotopia will be the sound of a
varied world, emanating from people engaged in widely diverse cultural
practices. Initiated by the AEC and coproduced with OE 1 KUNSTRADIO,
RADIOTOPIA proposes to create a temporary network aimed at linking
disparate parts of the globe on many realtime and virtual levels, creating
a multi-media network grounded in radio transception (both sending and
receiving), culminating in a large open-air installation and an overnight
broadcast (Long Night of Radio Art) during the Ars Electronica Festival
2002.
The Ars Electronica Center and Festival for Art, Technology and Society,
Linz, Austria was established in 1979 as an open meeting-place for artists,
scientists and researchers. The Ars Electronica Festival is one of the most
important festivals for electronic art and media theory.
The festival 2002 focuses on the blind spots of globalization with
UNPLUGGED, a theme indicative of how the issue of the political element in
art has returned with a vengeance to the agendas of intellectual
discourse and artistic practice.
Artists of all fields and from all over the world are invited to become
participants/nodes in this network.
There are many ways of communicating/participating/exchanging:
- - INPUT:
Send your sounds/poems/scores etc. in a pre-recorded form to Kunstradio via
snail mail (on cassettes, CDs, MDs) or Internet (live streams, files,
images) or send your texts/poems/statements (in all languages) in a written
form to:
ORF Kunstradio
Argentinierstr. 30a
A - 1040 Vienna
Austria
Phone. ++431 50101 18277 or ++43 732 7272 60
Fax: ++431 50101 18065
Email: kunstradio@thing.at
http://kunstradio.at
http://www.aec.at/radiotopia
- - TRANSFORMATION:
Become a node in the network by collecting part of the sound inputs from
the project website, from shortwave services, or from participating local,
community, pirate or national radio broadcasts, and process/remix these
sounds to re-input into the network.
- - OUTPUT:
Create your on own on-air or on-site version of the project: broadcast
sounds from the network on your radio station or stream from your website;
or incorporate sounds into a public concert or installation.
Combinations of all the above mentioned are possible and very welcome.
Mixing, re-mixing, re-broadcasting etc may also happen before and after the
period of the Ars Electronica Festival)
CONTENT:
All kinds of sounds are welcome; however, to help create the unique
soundimage of Radiotopia - Radio as a worldwide medium for communication/
exchange/dialogue supporting and amplifying the often unheard multiplicity
of voices-- we propose a strong language or vocal element in your
contributions. Diverse and regional voices also includes the "voices" of
specific landscapes, cityscapes, and ecosystems around
the world.
We may attempt to classify your contributions on the homepage of the
project according to their emotional
atmosphere, their type of language (human everyday, poetic etc.,
environmental sounds, urban rhythms etc) to make your contributions easily
accessible to those musicians, sound artists and radio artists who will be
composing on-site, on-air and on-line versions of the project during the
Ars Electronica Festival. You are invited to classify your own
contribution.
TECHNICAL ASPECTS:
The main platform of the project will be a website which serves several
purposes:
- - it will offer informations on the project and depict its progress.
- - it will make all individual contributions accessible worldwide in low
tech formats and if possible high quality sound formats.
- - it will feature live webcasts and their documentations from all the
versions of the project rendered on-site and on-air during the festival
- - it will host documentation and archiving of the project, allowing
interested people to continue mixing and re-mixing beyond the timeframe of
the Ars Electronica Festival.
All of the incoming contributions (sound, images, texts), also those
arriving by letter or cassette, CD etc will be put on this webpage
and thereby become part of the projects archive.
The versions planned so far for realisation during the renowned
international Ars Electronica Festival
(taking place for the 23rd time in Linz/A from the 8th to the 12th of
September 2002)
on site:
- - specially invited international musicians/sound artists will
compose open-air mixes using submitted and streamed audio material to be
presented on a huge loudspeaker system along the banks of the river Danube
at Linz/Austria, in front of the Brucknerhaus, one of the main venues of
the Ars Electronica Festival. Webcasts and "soundreports" of these versions
will be available on the project website - live and as documentation.
on air:
- - an overnight radio art broadcast live on the National Austrian Radio on
the September 10th (11pm CEST - 5:00 am CEST) will have artistst/musicians
present in the studio composing your contributions into a very unusual many
hours long radio-event. This event will be streamed live online and
documented afterwards.
on line: (as above)
The on-site and on-air events of/at the Ars Electronica Festival will be
webcast and documented on the website of the project, which will become an
archive of all submitted contributions, as well as their different uses in
either the installations or the radio broadcasts by fellow artists during
the festival and after....

Der Wunsch nach dem Besonderen, der der Entwicklung einer fantasievollen Maschine immanent ist, schwingt in dieser Ausstellung mit und überträgt sich oft als sinnliche Erfahrung auf den Betrachter. Gerade in einer Zeit, in der sich der Begriff der ‚Virtualität‘ konstant und beharrlich im Kunstdiskurs hält, bringt das Edith-Ruß-Haus für Medienkunst Skulpturen und Apparate mit einer starken physischen Präsenz zusammen. Hier geht es um die Möglichkeiten der künstlerischen Erfindung - von der Dynamisierung des Objektes bis hin zur Entwicklung utopischer Ideen für eine bessere Welt mittels mechanisierter Kunstwerke. Die 'Magischen Maschinen' sind ein Testament der Hoffnung auf die unerschöpfliche Quelle des erfinderischen Geistes.

A desire for the extraordinary, which is at the core of any fantastic machine, travels through this exhibition as an undercurrent – and is often transferred to the viewer as an experience for the senses. At a time when the word ‘virtual’ constantly slips into the discourse on art, the Edith Russ Site for Media Art has brought together sculptures and apparatuses with a strong physical presence. They are possibilities of artistic invention – from the dynamism of the object to the development of utopian idea for a better world through mechanical artworks. The ‘Magical Machines’ are a testament to the hope for the endless source of the inventive spirit.

>The popularity of chatrooms on the internet and the speed of electronic mail
>have led to an enormous growth in communication, and with it, changes in the
>use of language and the creation of countless vernaculars. The Netherlands
>Media Art Institute organises from August 24 untill September 28 The
>Pleasure of Language. In this exhibition the artists are concerned with
>language in various manners. By employing new technologies a number of works
>reflect the body of thought and ways of working of artists at the beginning
>of the last century - like Hugo Ball, Marcel Duchamp and Theo van Doesburg -
>, placing these ideas in a contemporary perspective. The artists respond
>through image, text and sound to and participate in the ways language-use as
>well as the communication process are changing.
>
>In his installations the audio artist Brandon LaBelle focuses on the
>dynamics of spaces, objects, bodies and language. His interest is primarily
>in the harmonic possibilities of language: how the various consonants and
>vowels collectively form an architectural whole that enables us to form
>words and sentences, and subsequently how they achieve and influence
>communication.
>
>The misunderstandings which arise in communication are central to the work
>of Péter Frucht. Influenced by his long presence in chatrooms on the
>internet, in Frucht has selected snippets of various internet conversations
>in ‘iow…’. He has then styled the texts by replacing certain letters and
>automatically reordering the words left over. The result is a wave of live
>chat that can be mixed and linked together by the visitor, through which new
>dialogues become audible.
>
>MEZ (Mary Anne Breeze) produces e-poetry on the internet which she herself
>terms m[ez]ang.elle. M[ez]ang.elle is a game with language, supported by
>sound, symbols and text, which arises from abbreviations that are current in
>e-mail and SMS communication. The words are altered in a manner that
>reflects the fundamental meaning of the word and lets new associations
>arise. Her language is based on English and contains mathematical,
>programming and other language codes, in order to develop a language
>specific to internet.
>
>In her newest quasi-documentary video Substitutes (2002) Imogen Stidworthy
>shows us two young singers from Romania who meet each other by chance. As
>she shows the tape to friends, it evokes all sorts of commentaries,
>explanations and interpretations. Stidworthy mixed the reactions with the
>original Romanian folk songs that were sung in the video. The acoustic
>linking of the reactions with the folk songs provides that the work changes
>into a hybrid soundtrack, a patchwork of illogical connections and
>grammatical discrepancies.
>
>In addition to current works, a number of works from the early days of video
>art from the Montevideo collection will be shown on monitor. Recordings of
>performances by Laurie Anderson and Carolee Schneeman, and video works by
>Vito Acconci and others will show how artists employed language in their

URBAN DRIFT POSTER - CALL FOR ENTRIES
Join the drift position yourself
To urbanists, artists, architects, designers...
For Urban Drift 2002 we would like to draw together diverse and
international statements in the form of posters to be shown in the urban
drift nicht space and in the open workspaces around Berlin between the 9th
and 13th October 2002, and to be included in an urban drift publication.
Urban Drift offers a broad scope for statements, slogans, images,
impressions and we hope that the response will be extremely varied. Our
intention is to make use of a relatively cheap and direct medium to gain an
overview of attitudes to urban realities here and now.
Themes can be gleaned from the website http://www.urbandrift.org and are
briefly outlined here:
on the state of our cities, on new urban strategies for peripheral, residual
and overlooked public spaces / on the city as a medium / reflecting the
paradigm shift in architecture and urban design in the age of global
mobility / the repoliticisation of architectural practice / the backlash to
the global technology hype, and the global mobility debate / real versus
virtual space and architectures / specific, local versus global urban
contexts / tactical mobility and urban interventions / displacement and
urban nomadism / connective urbanism / reforging urban identities / the
inexhaustible inventory of the streets...
MADE PUBLIC
The posters will be seen throughout Berlin, and will be exhibited from the
9th to the 13th October 2002 in the urban drift nightspace in Café Moskau on
the Karl Marx Allee.
NOMINATIONS
A special selection of submitted posters will be published prior to the
urban drift event by way of our media partners.
STIPULATIONS
Posters should be sent to us in their final, printed form at least 2-3
copies (and more are welcome) one to be shown in the night space, one for
documentation and publishing purposes. The urban drift logo should be
integrated in the design.
FINAL DATE FOR SUBMISSIONS
26th August 2002
