=================================================================

A Precise Game of Sound and Body
Rosas: Drumming
recommended by Moriyama Mika

After their performances in 1994 they have disappeared from Japanese
stages for quite a while, but now the fans' patience is finally rewarded
with another Japan tour of the radical dance group Rosas... The piece
Rosas perform this time is 1998's "Drumming." It's an attempt to
capture minimal music icon Steve Reich's representative work
"Drumming" in movements, using the whole composition of nothing
but primitive and extremely minimal sounding rhythmical repetition.
The energy, the power of repetition this multiplication of tiniest,
stripped-down rhythm units creates, is overwhelming....

A Base in Cyberspace
text by Ozaki Tetsuya

On May 8 I went to hear a lecture about 'public places in cyberspace' by
Geert Lovink at TN Probe on Omotesando. The event started with the
introduction of Amsterdam's city site "De Digitale Stad" and the
mailing list "nettime," which is organized by 'net activist' Lovink
himself.  Further, he discussed the meanings of net criticism, delivered
a clear analysis of the ups and downs of the 'new economy,' and threw
up some questioning comments on the ideology of "net = free."...
