Call for Proposals

Hilchot Shchenim,chapter II

The Israeli Center for Digital Art

Digital ArtLab

info@digitalartlab.org.il

16 Yirmiyahu st,

Holon 58373,Israel.

www.digitalartlab.org.il

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

During the coming year,the center will oversee three projects under the name

ìHilchot Shcheinim"-Lows for neighbors (a reference to the laws of division
of

property and boundaries codified by the Rambam in his "Mishna Torah",a

commentary on the Torah

This exhibition came from a desire to catalyze the discourse on the influences
of

digital technologies on contemporary culture in general and Israeli society
in

particular,and out of a recognition of the need to create a platform for

communications between artists,activists,media people,film makers,and the
general

public,

Hilchot Shcheinim is comprised of three main exhibits,each accompanied by
video

screenings,lectures,performances and workshops.The exhibits will act as a

laboratory for ideas about art and media and the marketplace and exchange,and
will

examine the manner in which social,cultural and technological
changes,influence art

and artists.

The Hilchot Shcheinim events should be apprehended as an up-to-date source of

information that offers a panoramic view of our lives via the combination of
the

language of art and the tools of contemporary culture,the various
media,politics,and

the economy.

2

Project I:December 2003 -February,2004

The first chapter opened on Dec.6th and is still on until Feb.28th.We consider
it to

be an initial step towards the formation of a regional,cultural network that
will serve

as a stage for both artists and researchers for establishing relations with
their

colleagues from countries in the regions by means of a combination of the
language of

art with tools of modern day culture,various modes of communication,as well
as

using universal tools of communication and exchange in order to assign their
activity

broader contexts and support.

Project II:April-June,2004

Will focus on tactics and strategies used by artists,groups of
artists,activists,

and non-governmental organizations (NGOs)to create cultural networks and

cooperation.The emphasis will be on the ways in which capitalism and the

globalization movement shape the media and the use that artists make of media

technologies in their work.

Project III:September -November,2004

We will attempt to diagram life in the world of the Empire
-Globalization,proposing

the Internet as a positive model for globalization.Not only is the Internet a
model

wherein the countries of the world,giant corporations,political and social

organizations,and individuals are equal,but it is a model of a decentralized
network

without centralized control or enforcement that cannot monitor either the flow
of

information or number of its ìcitizensî.Moreover,it is a virtual,apolitical
structure

with a weak capacity for control that is vulnerable to disruptions,ìstreet
actionî,and

revolts,yet it does not collapse as a result.At Hilchot Schcheinim III,we
will

attempt to examine how a vision of such a world is conceived of by artists,and
what

the effects are of such a world on the art realm.

Visual artists,media artists,musicians,activists,and collectors are invited to
propose

projects.Preference will be given to artists working in the Middle East and
the

Mediterranean.

Proposals for projects for Hilchot Shcheinim II must be sent by February 28,

2004 along with the accompanying form.

LOCATIVE MEDIA WORKSHOP (pixelACHE 2004 Festival)

29th March - 2nd April

The deep-local Helsinki culture of mobility, systems and networks is
manifested at the site of Rautatieasema (Railway Station). With it's
interior, exterior, surrounding subterranean public-spaces, it is a
centrepoint of urban Finland; A cartographic and temporal framework for
partings, convergences, paths and destinations, all wrapped up in objective
data and personal story. The tangible, intangible, physical and informatic..
The static and mobile..

INTRODUCTION

The Locative media workshop held during pixelACHE 2004 Festival is the first
event in the series of 6 "Trans-Cultural Mapping" workshops initiated by
RIXC Centre for New Media (Riga, Latvia). Each workshop will have a specific
focus on outskirts and interregional networking, in the context of an
enlarged Europe. An additional goal is to discover specific, deep and
relevant layers of the local cultures, involving specific local communities
in the process.

http://www.rixc.lv - http://www.pixelache.ac

Locative media may be understood to mean media in which context is crucial,
in that the media pertains to specific location and time, the point of
spatio-temporal 'capture', dissemination or some point in between. The term
locative media has also over the last year been associated with mobility,
collaborative mapping, and emergent forms of social networking.

http://locative.org - http://locative.x-i.net

CALL OF INTEREST

The first workshop of the series will aim to explore and share locative
aspects of documentation, context and content. A small international group
of media artists, performers and researchers (8-12 persons) with tangential
experience of 'locative' documentation, covering different disciplines are
invited to attend. It is hoped this will include approaches ranging from
textual, sound, digital film, GPS, performance, architecture, and
archaeology, including recent/current locative media projects.

A large portion of the scheduled workshop time will be dedicated to
exploring activity/interaction in the specific and surrounding locus of the
Rautatieasema (railway station) of Helsinki city centre. Participants are
encouraged to bring their own desired technologies, although mobile
equipment will hopefully be available for use. For those interested, it may
be arranged for non-local persons to work with participants who benefit from
local knowledge of the area, situated culture, relevant systems etc.

Workshop activity can potentially engage with the pixelache 'signal|process'
workshop and exhibition coordinated by Sophea Lerner with Centre for Music &
Technology and MUU ry. The event takes place 15th March - 2nd April and
explores the sonic landscape in the local area, sharing similar themes with
the locative media workshop. More information at
http://cmt.siba.fi/masa/projects/sp

As part of the multidisciplinary exchange of method, a portion of the
workshop will be structured with key presentations based on the participants
previous/current projects. These presentations will be open to interested
public. The coordinators of the other 'cultural mapping' project partner
organisations - RIXC/Riga, TEKS/Trondheim, LORNA/Reykjavik, ELLIPSE/Paris,
Projekt Atol/Ljubljana - will also be invited to participate, sharing their
plans and objectives of the workshop series to the group.

Further towards the end of the week, with the beginning of the Pixelache
festival programme, there will be an opportunity to re-present some of the
workshop activity as a presentation or a performance to the public either at
MUU Gallery or in Kiasma Museum of Contemporary Art.

The results of the whole workshop series will be presented in an
exposition - 'Cultural Mapping Fair' - consisting of public interactive
installations and other documentation. This exposition will take place
during the 'Art+Communication' festival in Autumn 2004 in Riga, Latvia.

PARTICIPATE IN THE WORKSHOP

If you are interested in participating in the first locative media workshop
of the series, please contact the organisers at locative@pixelache.ac before
Friday 6th Feb 2004!

Travel and accommodation costs will be covered for all selected
participants, as well as per diems and necessary equipment and material
costs.

In due course, further details regarding program etc will be available at
http://www.pixelache.ac/locative/

Who’s Afraid of Blue, Red and Green? is an online competition and public art project by
multimedia Austrian artist Günther Selichar. From January 21 – March 31, participants will be
asked to design 15-second abstract animations in an exercise designed to explore the elementary
visual building blocks of digital display screens: the colors blue, red, and green. The online
competition is presented in collaboration with the Landesmuseum in Linz, Austria, host of a
concurrent exhibition, January 21 – February 28, 2004 of Selichar’s work.
Who’s Afraid of Blue, Red and Green? is a direct reference to Barnett Newman’s abstract
expressionist painting, Who’s Afraid of Red, Yellow and Blue? (1966-70), one of several
paintings, including the “Zip” series, in which Newman explored the nuanced relationship
between proportion, scale, and color. Drawing inspiration from this investigative process,
Selichar’s Who’s Afraid of Blue, Red and Green? charges participants to employ traditional
painterly compositional criteria on a display screen as opposed to canvas.
A jury consisting of the artist, curators, academics and others in the creative community will
select three winners to be notified in May 2004. The winners will be screened in rotation in
Creative Time’s ongoing series, The 59th Minute: Video Art on the Times Square Astrovision by
Panasonic as part of a group show of interactive projects in Times Square from late June through
September 2004.
We hope to disseminate information on the competition broadly, both nationally and
internationally, and thought that, in particular, Thing.net/Radar readers might be
interested in participating. If this project interests you, we would be happy to send you
information and links to the competition.
Thanks for your time and consideration.

Greetings,

You're receiving this email because I'm hoping you can help me locate
artists who do activist and/or socially relevant work, and who would like
some free exposure in a national publication! In These Times magazine is
bringing back their "art page" feature, and has asked me to help them find
work to fill it. (For those who don't know me, I'm an independent arts
and culture writer and editor based in Chicago.)

Work should be reproducible in a 2-dimensional, 8 x 11 (roughly) format.
It can be original work, or photographs/documentation of performances,
installations, interventions, etc. - anything of which you can provide a
digital image or slide.

For those unfamiliar, here is ITT's description of itself from its website
(www.inthesetimes.org):

"In These Times is a national, biweekly magazine of news and opinion
published in Chicago. For 27 years, In These Times has provided
groundbreaking coverage of the labor movement, environment, feminism,
grassroots politics, minority communities and the media. In These Times
features award-winning investigative reporting about corporate malfeasance
and government wrongdoing, insightful analysis of national and
international affairs, and sharp cultural criticism about events and ideas
that matter."

If you are or know of artists or artist groups who might like to be
featured in this publication, please respond to or pass along this email
address, and please forward to anyone you think might be interested.

Thank you,
Kathryn Rosenfeld

Exchange a thing with a story for a printed artwork ñ this idea is behind the German net art project DINGWELT [thing world] (>> www.dingwelt.de). DINGWELT [thing world] collects small and big things with a hand written story of their owners and stages them. Diverse things that wait in the cellar or are hanging around in the drawer, have now the chance on honour and are besides articles of exchange for digital art. You only have to take heart at separating yourself from a beloved thing...

The DINGWELT market offers 12 things with history as printed art works in an on-line catalogue. For example the "CUDDLY HARE M‹MMY, unwashed" the "SINCLAIR Zx-81, self tuned" or the "THAI-MINIBAG, eye catcher".

Everyone can select these picture articles and offer own used things for them in exchange by (package) mail. In principle anything is exchanged for the offered item, only a short, hand written history must be sent in with the exchange item. In return, the user receives the picture from the catalogue as signed, laminated digital print with a certificate.

The exchange market is free but the user can only take part once. For fans and collectors the limited edition ìDINGWELT deluxe BOXî is available. The Box set offers complete all 12 digital artworks and the 12 stories as laminated professional prints. 30 boxes, each print numbered and signed are published by KUNSTKOMMT! and available for 600 Ä each.

DINGWELT is a work-in-progress-project of the KUNSTKOMMT! artist team. The so called ìstudio for art and communicationî by Michelle Adolfs and Petra Mueller was founded in 1996and works on media art in the field of picture meaning, media communication and knowledge transformation.
