< approaches and theories of history and development of video arts. 
videobeat equally refers to the future and to the past. therefore, the
video subject matter will be approached from its very beginnings, when
it appeared as a technological discovery - the image signal and the use
in military purposes, and then it will be analyzed through a wider
sociological, political and artistic prism. the videobeat explores the
transformation of the video from the instrument for accurate
transmission of certain events and situations all the way to the almost
revolutionary possibilities in the scope of the most diverse expressions
and experiments. video becomes the instrument for expression of
emotions, imaginary realities, and new perceptions. freed from rational
and technological, it steps away from the language of the feature film;
the emphasis is put on freedom of expression. during the last decades of
the past century, picturesque and poetical characteristic became the
essence of the video>

define the status of video arts today, especially in relation to other
forms of visual expression and media. one of the aims defined in this
way is to answer frequent questions in this field: is video art being
transformed into a new form and how can we be sure that the
transformation isn't going in the opposite direction? what kind of media
is this about, which are the new ways? is video disappearing in the age
of pure digital forms? the most interesting question is whether the new
media and the whole digital visual production are nothing but logical
steps in the progress of video art aesthetics>>

SPECIAL ISSUE # 4 > DRAPE > CALL FOR PARTICIPATIONS

http://incident.net/hors/drape/drape/

The drape is inextricably technical and aesthetic. It is a training theme,
The struggling acquisition of an expertise of representation, with rules ensued
from ancient masters.
The drape structures the eye and the light.
It contains aesthetic issues; the relationship between nude and fabric, the
drowsy abandon and the forced walk, the curves and the pleats, the fragility
and steadiness, the shapeless and the sprawl.
The drape is an act of gravity.
There are so many images and bodies. From the glorious drapes of the Greeks
To the macabre mortuary drapes of the Renaissance. To the cast-offs, rags in
which prostitutes don themselves.
Nowadays, there is this failure, this poorness of the drape.
Complexity of the drape, fabric and texture. Pathos of the lines from where
interior and exterior act not as a void but as pleats and twists. Drapes
collapse or soar without any body, leaving only a trace.

Please make sure files are zipped before sending to:
All projects to be received before 31st January 2003.
Only interactive and internet specific pieces will be considered.

Call for Asian American Artists To Explore War, Deadline:
2/17/03

The Asian Arts Initiative invites Asian American performance artists to
participate in

Everywhere Is War: An Artists Exchange

Retreat: Weekend of May 9-11, 2003
Performance: Friday, June 20, 2003

The Call

WAR
a) a state of open, armed, often prolonged conflict carried on between
nations, states, or parties
b) the techniques and procedures of war
c) a condition of active antagonism or contention
d) a concerted effort or campaign to combat or put an end to something
considered injurious

For many Asian Americans, war is intimately tied to our knowledge of
history and our narrative of settlement and existence in the Americas. In
the last half century alone, Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, East Timor,
India, Korea, and Vietnam have experienced devastating wars as continued
warfare has interrupted life in Burma, Kashmir, the Philippines, and Sri
Lanka, among others. Catch phrases become part of our family (and
national) mythologies: 38th parallel, religious violence, separatist
movements, Pol Pot indelibly seared into our minds.

For Asian Americans, war is not just about conflict on foreign soil, but
also includes domestic campaigns that target immigrants and dispossessed
peoples. After September 11th, the "war on terrorism" began as a war on
the Taliban in Afghanistan and has continued with an impending war with
Iraq, increased militarization and arms proliferation, the quelling of
nationalist and independence movements across the world, as well as the
detainment of thousands of people in the United States whose identities and
whereabouts were withheld from the public.

>From the "war on drugs" to the "war against working people," to any
>systemic brutalization of community, war is both simple and complex-and,
>very simply, everywhere. The Asian Arts Initiative brings together Asian
>American artists to share and learn, analyze, and create artwork that
>addresses the manifold aspects and the specific stories of war.

The Project

The Artists Exchange is a three-part project that begins with a weekend
retreat where performance artists share some of their existing work and
sources of inspiration with each other; and participate in a "teach-in" to
begin to learn about and explore particular aspects of war. Each artist
will be asked to create work in response to the themes raised at the
retreat; then finally, to share their new work with a public audience at
the June 20, 2003 performance.

We are seeking up to 12 Asian American performance artists representing
diverse artistic disciplines-including, but not limited to, dance, music,
spoken word, and theater. Preference will be given to artists with a
commitment to the Philadelphia area, though all artists are invited to
apply. We will provide participating artists with stipends of $250.
Additional travel stipends will be available for artists coming from
outside of Philadelphia. Artistic groups and collectives are invited to
apply, though stipends and performance time are limited.


To Apply

Please submit the following no later than MONDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2003:

1) Your name, address, phone number, and e-mail address.
2) An artist statement, up to one page, that describes what motivates your
current work. Please share your artistic and political concerns, including
how being Asian American impacts your vision as an artist.
3) Up to a page describing why you want to participate in the Artists
Exchange. Please address how participating will support your artistic
development. If you know, feel free to describe the work that you might
want to create through the Exchange.
4) Good quality audio or video tapes, writing, and/or additional work
samples that will help us evaluate your ability to succeed in this project.

All materials must be received by Monday, FEBRUARY 17, 2003. Please send
