"'The Bicentennial of the Circus' by Lowell 'Bozo the Clown' Kriel, a Circus Performer for 27 years", an artwork by Charles Kriel, has been relaunched at http://www.kriel.tv/Bicentennial/kriel.html This work was completed in 1998 with the support of London Arts (then London Arts Board) and Artec, and grew out of a far-more complex CD-ROM based work of the same name created in 1996. The soundtrack from that work, "Songs for G", was awarded the Prix Ars Electronica Award of Distinction for Computer Music. The images from that work were displayed as large-format digital photographic prints at the gallery of Tomato Design, London. These photographs were presented again as projections in 1999 in the Italian Pavilion of the Venice Biennale. Title of work: The Bicentennial of the Circus by Lowell "Bozo the Clown" Kriel, a Circus Performer for 27 years URL of the work: http://www.kriel.tv/Bicentennial/kriel.html Artist: Charles Kriel email: lists@kriel.tv Description: Bicentennial is a continuation of my work with circus themes and my identity as a child circus performer. Lowell ³Bozo the Clown² Kriel was my grandfather. Shortly after he died, I entered his trailer to take care of his personal possessions. Among them, I found hundreds of family circus photos, as well as several hundred pages of manuscript for a history book titled ³The Bicentennial of the Circus² by Lowell "Bozo the Clown" Kriel, a Circus Performer for 27 years. Not quite Henry Darger¹s In the Realms of the Unreal, but then again, Darger wasn¹t a clown. I was most struck by the rigid voice of my grandfather¹s manuscript, written as though it were to be read from centre ring. My reaction to the work was to begin writing my own stories about the circus, digitally manipulating the family photographs to tell stories about the circus, and creating the circus music I hear in my head ‹ the stories, the photographs and the music of the circus I remember. Some of these visual, sonic and textual stories are too direct to be told normally, and so they have been written using the structure and language of jokes, the kitsch imagery of posters and the music of dissonance. My ³Bicentennial of the Circus² is an example of this strand of work, rendered for the web. As such, it is built to be absorbed almost instantly visually. Further exploration reveals a compositional complexity in the music, a text-based story, and a series of image rollovers creating a complex matrix of relationships between uncanny circus images. Bio: Charles Kriel Media Artist/Theorist Charles has been creating film/video and media works since relocating from Atlanta ten years ago; first to Prague, then Venice and London. Born a third-generation circus performer, Charles is PhD media art (pending viva) from Central Saint Martins, and has received awards/grants/commissions from Prix Ars Electronica, ICA, MOMA-Oxford, London Institute, Royal Festival Hall, British Council, Dance on Screen, and London Arts. As a media artist, he has exhibited in the gallery of Tomato Design, at the 1999 Venice Biennale, and throughout the Middle East, Europe, Russia, the US and Australasia. As a composer, Charles has been awarded the Prix Ars Electronica Award of Distinction, and has composed by commission an opera and several song cycles. His work has been released by ÖRF (Austria) and Electroshock (Moscow). As a filmmaker, writer and photographer, he is regularly commissioned by BBC Radio 1 and BBC 1Xtra and has also been commissioned by MTV, ITV and Channel 4. Also a media theorist synthesising the works of McLuhan, Lacan and Freud as they apply to digital media in his recent work Noise and the Uncanny, he has delivered papers and talks at Congress of the Americas, University of Westminster, Institute of Education, London Institute, Oxford Brookes, and a selection of conferences. Charles (VJ Kriel) is also a VJ, and has been called ³the world¹s leading VJ² by the NME, and is resident VJ for BBC Radio 1, BBC 1Xtra and Pete Tong¹s Essential Selection. He has been cited by The Times as ³club culture's first superstar VJ,² and regularly performs in Ibiza, Ayia Napa, and across Europe and SE Asia. Since Spring 2000, he has performed for nearly 1.5 million clubbers internationally. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 12 May 2003 19:56:40 -0700 From: chris bassett <chris@robot138.com> Subject: OneTrees Artist's Talk and Panel Discussion Begin forwarded message: > From: Pond <pondpeople@mucketymuck.org> > Date: Tue May 6, 2003 12:16:56 PM US/Pacific > To: "'chris bassett'" <chris@robot138.com> > > OneTrees Artist=92s Talk & Panel Discussion: > Natalie Jeremijenko (OneTrees originator) > > > Panelists: > > James Crutchfield, Co-Founder of Art & Science Laboratory, Physicist > at Santa Fe Institute > > Lisa Phipps,Artist, Biochemist > > Jeannene Przyblyski,Art Historian, Cultural Geographer, Exec.

"Tango is the dance of the milieu – the in-between...tango never finds its rightful place, dancing instead at the borders of existence in the interloping worlds between here and there." Erin Manning "The airport not only transforms a body on the ground into a body in the air, but it also involves the incorporeal transformation of the travelling body — as a citizen, a passenger (pax), a baggage allowance, an accused or an innocent." Gillian Fuller "Whether God or the law—or indeed capital—are decreed as sovereign, in each case this sovereignty consists not in the recognition of universal human rights but in the stipulation of who has the right to be regarded as human, and who has not. In this way, there is always a space created for those who are excluded from the community and from definitions of humanity: non-citizen, non-believer and the uncommodifiable." Angela Mitropoulos "...what took place in Seattle was a kind of explosion that lead to the construction of a new global imaginary...It seemed to us [DeriveApprodi] that this was the first time in the history of anti-systemic movements that a movement had emerged that took the unification of the planet not as an end but as a starting point."

Its central subject, abbreviated in the capital letters of the title, is "Remembering, Repressing, Forgetting". A new way of art working is practiced: networking as artworking. Experimental fields of memory are developed by inviting curators from different countries around the globe, eg directors of media festivals or curators specialized in New Media, who have to select a number of artists of their choice according the terms of the project. The dynamic of this ongoing and continously changing project, as it is set up for being presented in festivals and media exhibitions, manifests itself not only in the artistic online environment, especially created for [R] - [R] - [F] - Festival, but also progressing when for each new presentation a new project version is created, including new subject related aspects, new curators and new artists and new visualizations of the connected memory fields. Continuously expanding, these memory fields containing curators and artists of the previous project versions will be always present in the background while slowly a networking universe of collective memory comes up. The project uses the Internet not only as an artistic environment, but primarily also as a communicating medium and a data base which is closely connected to memory and loss of memory, thus the subject of the festival project. The Internet represents not only the ideal medium in many ways, but allows above that direct intercultural networking like no other medium. These invited, selecting and participating curators form the basis of Version 1.0 of [R] - [R] - [F] - Festival: Fran Ilich (Mexico, Mexico) Wilton Azevedo (Sao Paulo,Brazil) Anna Hatziyannaki (Athens, Greece) Branca Bencic (Pula, Croatia) Vincent Makowski (Lille, France) Eugeny Umansky (Kaliningrad, Russia) Caterina Davinio (Rome-Milan, Italy) Agricola de Cologne, Melody Parker Carter (both Cologne, Germany) More details, eg the selected, participating artists, etc can be found on [R] - [R] - [F] - Festival site: www.newmediafest.org/rrf/ [R]-[R]-[F] - Festival - 'Remembering-Repressing-Forgetting' New Media project in form of an 'online festival' - - conception and realisation by Agricola de Cologne - - copyright © 2003.
