Dear Colleagues and Friends,
In behalf of the NGO ‘359 Degrees – Network for Local and Subaltern
Hermeneutics’, Skopje, Macedonia, let me introduce to you the final stage of
the project ‘The House – The Chaos. The Woman and the Destroyed-Home
Discourse Re-built’. At this stage the organisers are preparing the
publication [the No. 9 in the ‘359 Degrees BOOKS’ series] consisted of
papers and texts related to the topic. The first ones [from the symposium
held in Ohrid, Macedonia on September 21, 2002] are already edited. But, as
the project provoke larger interest we decided to open this ‘Call for
papers’ for anyone interested to apply with her/is thoughts, remarks,
impression on this, for us in the region, rather important topic.
Therefore, we are inviting anyone interested in this project and topic to be
a part with her/is text in the significant series of books published in/from
Macedonia. The length of the paper is not limited and the selection process
is not designed. These two issues are important for us, since we would like
to publish, as much as it is possible, different voices from different parts
of the world, since we all share some experiences from the proposed point of
view.
The deadline for the papers is March 1, 2003. And, please submit a short
descriptive c.v.
The only thing that we are asking for is to send the paper in English and in
rtf format.
In addition we are sending to your attention the project proposal were you
can find the basic elements of it. If you are providing interest or if you
need some more information, do not hesitate to contact us on the addresses
in the footer of this mail.
Sincerely,
Nebojsa Vilic

GENERAL INFORMATION
1. Project name:
THE HOUSE – THE CHAOS. The Woman and the Destroyed-Home Discourse
Re-built
2. Synopsis:
Regional project for critical reading and interpretation of segments from
the recent cultural understanding of the destroyed home from a women point
of view, based on the specifies and differences of the local cultures in the
South-East European region [SEE]. Through practical and theoretical exchange
among artists and art and cultural practitioners to achieve recent
understanding what are the causes and the consequences of the war and the
displacement from the home. To juxtapose the beauty and the cultural
heritage of Ohrid with its 19th century urban housing with the
usual/practised interpretation of the war-image of the house over-floating
the media as a conversation between the ‘had’, ‘lost’ and the ‘re-built’
home of the woman. The project aims, through painted images and
spoken/written words to open the discussion about the building, loosing and
re-building of the home. In this case, the meaning and the role of the women
in these and such circumstances are expressing important significance.
Putting the question in-between the physical and symbolic realm of the
‘home’, the project tends to intervene into the stereotypes about the issues
of the women at the SEE, trying to improve that she always re-builds what
the men will destroy. In that sense, the project seeks for the images from
the imagination of the women artists, the ways how they are making,
implementing and developing their visions, and, lastly, to enable a female
platform for social engagement of these points of view in the – basically –
masculine society. The artistic and theoretical views, as the organisers are
expecting, will enforce the public discussion in the cultural and the social
circles around the region.
Fields of interest and research: - Gender, postcolonial and subaltern
studies, multicultural and multiethnic discourse, democratisation of the
structure of the transitional societies in SEE, inter-regional exchange.
Type of activities: - Workshop, meeting and exchanging point for artists and
art and cultural, and social practitioners.
Form of activities: - Open air painting, round table, lectures and
discussions.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Aim
The starting position of the project ‘The House – The Chaos. The Woman and
the Destroyed-Home Discourse Re-built’ is that the female aspects,
understanding, role and possibilities in post-war times are extremely
important. The cultural tradition at the SEE, denominated and dominated by
the prejudice of the males’ rights to bring decisions (as a stereotyped
image), in these war and post-war times are mirroring and reflecting the
actual geo-political situation, as well. The project is aiming to innovate,
introduce and promote different critical approaches, kinds of thought and
practices based on the actual ideological and political influence on the
cultural field through the examples of visual and art-theoretical
works/production. It is a regional project that critically re-reads and
re-interprets the segments of the actual conditions at the SEE that are
based, on the other hand, on the specifies and differences of the local
cultures in the SEE region. It is addressed, first of all, to the younger
generation of professionals in the filed of visual art and culture.
How (Strategy)
The project is designed as a series of activities in a period of ten days.
In this period through different forms the project is planning to bring
interesting and emerging young female artists and art critics from SEE
region. There will be several levels of realisation of this event:
o Selection: art critics from the respective countries were asked to
propose two women artists; the selection was based on the proposed topics by
the organisers and the professional interest of the artists. [It was
important that the selected artists were already working with these topics.]
o Open-air workshop for the artists: during the days of stay the invited
artists worked and produced up to three paintings/works on the open-air in
Kaneo. The works were limited by the technique canvas/frames by painting,
assemblage, collages and using of photography only, i.e. the medium carrier
is canvas on which above mentioned techniques. The workshop, as an open-air,
was opened for the domestic public and the tourists. [According to this, the
workshop was kind of open-air exhibition.]
o Round-table: the invited emerging, but relevant, known and experienced
art critics and theoreticians were invited to participate in the one-day
round-table; the main discussions at the round table were led on the
following issues:
- ART IN WAR TIMES
- ART IN THE POST-WAR TIMES
- WAR AS AN INFLUENCE ON THE WOMEN ART IN THE SEE REGION
- WAR AS A REASON FOR ART PRODUCTION
- WAR – BREAKING POINT OF THE INTERPRETATION OF THE ART
o Open discussions: during the days of the workshop there were open
discussions among the artists, including the local interested audience about
the actual artistic and cultural scenes in the respective country, based on
the proposed topics.
o Portfolios: in the evening hours, the participating artists were asked
to do presentations of their work. This was aimed for better information
among the artists and the interested visitors (since the presentations were
public).
o Exhibition: after the finishing of the work, the last day of the
workshop we organised exhibition with the produced works. The exhibition was
placed in the Cultural Center ‘The House of Robevci’ in Ohrid. After this
presentation in Ohrid, the exhibition was organised in Skopje in the
Cultural Location ‘SiTE’ – including ‘one degree gallery’.
o Publication: all of the materials [reproductions of the works, papers
from the round table and the discussions] will be published in a book from
the ‘3590 BOOKS’ series; it will be in English, due to the plan and the
attempt to spread the results of the project among the broader art, cultural
and social community; the content of the publication is as follows:
- Introducing text of the organisers with the explanation of the
project;
- Research-paper section with the proposed topics;
- Reproduction section with the art works of the workshop
- Number of b/w reproductions illustrating the lectures and papers;
- Number of b/w reproductions illustrating the activities;
Why
The last several years in the SEE region [especially in the countries of
former Yugoslavia] the presence of the war resulted with radical changes in
many fields of the social living. [Does not matter are there countries that
were not affected by concrete war conditions, all of them passed through a
serious re-questioning of many things.] Not only the physical damages, but
also, even more, the destruction of the moral values faced serious
consequences. Many questions appeared as less important, but much more
requested deep and serious, sometimes – immediate, answers. How to
accomplish the former value structures or how to structure now ones – still
are one of the most important questions now a day.
Of course, since nothing will be same after these years, the results of
these changes and happenings in region there is a kind of new, different and
critical approach towards the social issues, first of all in the field of
culture. Activities, production, interpretations – they were all faced with
the question: is there a need of engagement for the art, or it can stays
besides these social happenings. Therefore, the projects putts the tasks on
practical and theoretical research of the phenomena of the war and its
relation with the woman and the phenomenon of the woman as a confronting
point of view in relation with the war.
These kinds of interlacing of the term of the woman and of the war
positioned in such geo-political conditions of the SEE region are going to
act as subjects of the whole project. As a result of this project, it is
expected to come to creative, developed and promotive critical state of mind
on the question of the ‘post-war women re-building of the destroyed home’.

"The process of harvesting, sequencing and mapping the human genome has
been described as that of a group of people in a dark room fumbling around
not knowing what is in the room, how the room looks or what they are
looking for. Someone bumps into a thing with four sharp corners and starts
to look for other things with four sharp corners. Someone else decides to
move along what seem to be walls and feel their texture, yet another sits
still and waits for the others in the room to pass by, taking notes on
their activities or maybe on their scents."
- Lisa Jevbratt, curatorial notes, Mapping the Web Infome
I have been invited by YLEM (www.ylem.org) to guest edit an issue of their
print publication, the YLEM journal: Artists Using Science and Technology.
The topic of this issue will be, roughly, artists working with large data.
We all know Moore's law, the famous and prescient prediction that the
speed of CPUs doubles approximately every 18 months. What is less well
understood is the exponential growth of scientific data, and the
relationship between its collection and our ability to process and
understand it. Genomic data is not the only large data set that is
presenting both processing and conceptual challenges to science and
information technology; we can also point to astrophysics, geography,
geology, fusion energy, climatology, nanotechnology and many branches of
materials science as areas of study that are producing quantities of data
that challenge the technical limits of super computers, distributed
computing, grid computing, and superscalar simulation techniques. Even
given Moore's law, semiconductor advances, fast networks, and cheap mass
storage, "The Problem of Large Data" is nevertheless looming larger as our
ability to collect data begins to outpace our ability to process and
digest it.
If you are an artist who is working with extremely large data sets,
particularly those relating to scientific endeavor, we invite you to
submit abstracts for papers to be considered for publication in an
upcoming issue of the YLEM journal. Of particular interest are papers
relating to projects that demonstrate the strategies, traditions, and
practices common to or employed within the practice of art (and
art/science collaboration), that might inform productive and innovative
approaches to "The problem of Large Data".
Please send Abstracts or proposals to:
Brett Stalbaum (beestal@cadre.sjsu.edu)
Deadline: Not really, but review will begin in early March, 2003, for
expected publication during 2003. Average articles run around 1500-2000
words, depending on the number and size of images.
PRIX ARS ELECTRONICA 2003 - COMPETITION FOR CYBERARTS
The Prix Ars Electronica 2003 marks the 17th edition of the competition for
cyberarts, which is organized by the Austrian Broadcasting Corporation (ORF), Upper
Austrian Regional Studio, in conjunction with the Ars Electronica Festival.
From the start, the Prix Ars Electronica has been conceived as an open platform for
various disciplines in the field of digital media design at the intersection of
technology, art, science and society. Accordingly, over the course of the years, it
has repeatedly been renewed, in order to be able to take the rapid developments in
the realm of information technologies into account.
Since 1987 around 14,600 artists, scientists, researchers and representatives from
the entertainment branch from all over the world have entered their works in the Prix
Ars Electronica, thus formulating and commenting on the media developments of the
past sixteen years. In this way, they have created a public forum for a highly
productive discussion. At the same time, they have laid the foundation for a new,
highly qualified media-theoretical exploration and investigation of computer art /
cyberart within the sphere of contemporary art.
Now for the 17th time, the Austrian Broadcasting Company, Upper Austrian Regional
Studio, as the organizer of the Prix Ars Electronica, invites artists, scientists,
researchers and developers to participate in the annual cyberarts competition in the
categories Net Vision / Net Excellence, Interactive Art, Computer Animation/Visual
Effects and Digital Musics.
Three money prizes will be awarded in each of the competition categories Computer
Animation/Visual Effects, Interactive Art and Digital Musics, six in the competition
category Net Vision / Net Excellence. That means 5 Golden Nicas and 10 Awards of
Distinction. In addition, up to 12 Honorary Mentions may be distinguished in each of
the competition categories (except for net vision / net excellence: 16 honorary
mentions).
The works selected in all categories will be presented to the public in the
exhibition "CyberArts 2003" at the O.K Center for Contemporary Art during the Ars
Electronica Festival. Subsequently, they will also be shown (optionally) in a touring
exhibition organized by the main sponsors of the Prix Ars Electronica, Telekom
Austria.
Beyond the immediate occasion of the awards and in addition to the presentations
during the Ars Electronica Festival, the results of the Prix Ars Electronica 2003
will also be documented as far as possible in print, video, DVD, CD and on the
Internet.

[2] call for works : Stasis_Space exhibition
PLEASE NOTE: This call for works relates ONLY to the online exhibition portion of the audible still-life project.
Pieces for the audible still-life Stasis_Space exhibition will consist of audio portraits of still-life set-ups [no longer than 3 minutes in duration], as well as either a photograph or video clip of the corresponding still-life. Artists may also submit a drawing or painting of their still-life [digital or conventional media are acceptable].
In creating the still-lives, artists should approach their construction in the same manner in which a visual artist would set up a still-life for a drawing or painting. Still-lives should consist of either a single object or a grouping of objects specifically placed together by the artist.
Objects within the still-life should be chosen for both their visual and audible aesthetic value, and should be arranged in a manner that lends itself to visual and sonic exploration. This should NOT be approached as a sculpture, but rather as a grouping of objects from which an artwork will be made. The still-life is a catalyst for creating a finished artwork, NOT a finished artwork itself.
While creating your still-life, keep in mind the following questions:
1. What is a still-life?
2. Can a still-life move? Can it talk?
3. Why should an artist create art from a still-life in the 21st Century?
4. Does a still-life have to contain conventional "objects," or could the definition of "object" be approached from a different perspective?
The audio portion of each submission can EITHER be an untreated field recording of a still-life set-up, OR an audio composition created using sampled field recordings of the still-life set-up.
These recordings should be NO LONGER than three minutes.
