Polar Radio: have your audio broadcast in Antarctica!

by honor

Dear Ada, Firstly, a happy new year to you all in New Zealand! As some of you might know, Adam Hyde from r a d i o q u a l i a is in Antarctica and working on a project called 'Polar Radio'. r a d i o q u a l i a have just began broadcasting a new FM radio station in Antarctica. 'Polar Radio' is Antarctica's first ever artist-run radio station. It transmitted its first programme on FM on 29 December 2006. Polar Radio is part of a series of projects run by I-TASC - the Interpolar Transnational Art Science Constellation <http://www.i-tasc.org/>. Please see the below announcement for more information about Polar Radio. CALL FOR CONTENT - DEADLINE: 10 JANUARY 2007 Do you have a song, a message, or a sound that you want broadcast in Antarctica? We are looking for your music, sound art, radio plays, radio documentaries, and any phonically interesting artefacts you have to broadcast on Antarctica first artist-run radio station. There is a supply plane leaving for Antarctica from Cape Town on 11 January. We plan to have a shipment of CDs sent on that supply plane. We are now looking for CDs of: - music of all different kinds - radio art - radio plays - audio documentaries - audio books - archived news reports - investigative journalism - podcasts - any other audio material you would like to have broadcast in Antarctica If you have sonic material you want broadcast, please make a CD and send it to: Siphiwe Ngwenya / I-TASC c/- Pitch Black Productions 7 Prince Street Gardens Cape Town 8001 South Africa The best formats to send are: - audio CDs - MP3 CDs Very best wishes Honor Harger r a d i o q u a l i a http://www.radio-astronomy.net http://www.radioqualia.net .......................................................... ANNOUNCEMENT - ARTIST-RUN RADIO STATION IN ANTARCTICA Date: 31.12.06 Location: Antarctica .......................................................... 'Polar Radio' is a community radio station in Antarctica initiated by I-TASC and r a d i o q u a l i a. The first prototype station began FM broadcasts on 29 December 2006 in the Dronning Maud Land sector of Antarctica, where South Africa maintains their base, SANAE IV. The radio station is broadcasting new music, sound art, documentaries and live shows to the research community in Dronning Maud Land. Mobile researchers can tune into the radio station from their skidoos (snowmobiles used for transport). Residents of SANAE IV can tune in to the station from FM receivers at the base. This prototype station is the first step towards establishing a permanent community radio presence in Antarctica, which may eventually broadcast in between geographically dispersed Antarctic bases. The research phase of Polar Radio is supported by Arts Council England. .......................................................... ABOUT I-TASC I-TASC is the Interpolar Transnational Art Science Constellation. I-TASC is an official project of the International Polar Year 2007-2008. The project was conceived by Thomas Mulcaire and Marko Peljhan. I-TASC is a decentralized network of individuals and organisations working collaboratively in the fields of art, engineering, science and technology on the interdisciplinary development and tactical deployment of renewable energy, waste recycling systems, sustainable architecture and open-format, open-source media. I-TASC is a lichen-like structure sharing and integrating local knowledge, resources and skills across six continents in order to symbiotically engage with the air, ocean, earth and space commons The members of the first I-TASC Reconnaissance and Communication Expedition arrived in the Dronning Maud Land sector of Antarctica in December 2006 and will stay until February 2007. They are guests of the South African Antarctic Programme <http://www.sanap.org.za/>. The crew are: - Thomas Mulcaire (South Africa) - Adam Hyde - r a d i o q u a l i a (New Zealand) - Ntsikelelo Ntshingila (South Africa) - Amanda Rodrigues Alves (Brazil) The I-TASC crew's journey to the continent on board the ship, SA Agulhas and their work at SANAE IV base is documented in an online journal at the I-TASC website <http://www.i-tasc.org/>, under the NOW section. .......................................................... RADIO IN ANTARCTICA Whilst, Antarctica has never had an indigenous population, it does now have a regular human presence. It hosts scientists from 27 different nations. In the summer more than 4000 people live in Antarctica. Scientists tend to be located at the scientific bases operated by their home nation. Because of the immense size of the continent these bases tend to be far from one another. One of the only technologies which can bridge the wide expanses of Antarctica is radio. Whilst radio is primarily used to coordinate science expeditions and vital activities such as air-traffic control and search and rescue, the existence of several amateur radio stations in Antarctica operated by radio engineers in their spare time, is evidence that radio communication for leisure purposes is viable and desirable. Like any amateur radio stations, those in Antarctica are only operational sporadically, and communicate only with other amateur radio stations, on a one-to-one basis. .......................................................... POLAR RADIO - THE FUTURE Polar Radio will draw on the history of amateur radio broadcasting in the polar regions, taking inspiration from the role radio has played in the exploration of the Poles, and in facilitating communication between polar inhabitants and the wider world. One of the most important functions of Polar Radio station is be to radiophonically link dispersed bases, creating trans-national, inter-base connections promoting discussion and collaboration amongst the researchers living in Antarctica. Should it prove feasible, following this research phase, it is hoped that Polar Radio will enable researchers to share information about the living circumstances and weather conditions of their respective bases, and to anecdotally communicate the results of their investigations. In tandem with this community radio function, Polar Radio will also be a platform for artists. Many of the Antarctic bases have artist-in-residence programmes and regularly host artists in-situ. Polar Radio hopes to make it possible for artists in residence to communicate their work to the residents of Antarctica. It will pro-actively encourage artists to create audio-based art (sound art, new music, radio drama and other audio based practices) for broadcast, thus posing new artistic challenges for artists living in Antarctica. It is also hoped that Polar Radio will broadcast creative programmes produced outside Antarctica. Using internet-based systems, and posted CDs, we hope to enable an interface between artists and musicians based around the world and the residents of Antarctica. It is envisioned that the eventual programme of Polar Radio may be a combination of news reports from the various Antarctica bases authored by researchers, music programmes compiled by researchers, audio art, music, news and magazine programmes, sound art and radio art documentaries and audio-based art created by artists in residence at the Antarctic bases. .......................................................... TRANSMIT YOUR MESSAGE IN ANTARCTICA We are in the process of compiling programmes for broadcast. The internet connection at the present South African base in Antarctica is not fast enough for the crew to download sound material to broadcast. But we do want to broadcast music made by musicians and sound artists, radio plays, documentaries, and any other sonically fascinating ephemera. So, we need your help! If you have ever wanted a piece of music you have made, or even just a piece of music you like, heard in Antarctica, now is your chance. Make a CD and send it to: Siphiwe Ngwenya / I-TASC c/- Pitch Black Productions, 7 Prince Street, Gardens, Cape Town 8001, South Africa DEADLINE: 10 JANUARY 2007 There is not much time between now and when the plane leaves, so anything you can copy onto CD and post, would be gratefully received. ..........................................................

SIGGRAPH 2007 Art Gallery -Global Eyes

by brit

Art Gallery: Global Eyes Deadline 19 January 2007 5 pm Pacific time HYPERLINK "http://www.siggraph.org/s2007/presenters/art/"http://www.siggraph.org/s2007 /presenters/art/ The enormous speed by which digital media reach previously isolated cultures around the world catalyzes a rapid integration of visual and media languages across the digital and physical spectrum. There is a need to understand not only ethnic cultures and the vocabularies of their traditional media, but also how these cultures and languages transform and are being transformed by digital media, especially computer graphics. What role do digital media play in the connected global context? Global Eyes, the SIGGRAPH 2007 Art Gallery, is accepting submissions of artwork that expand our humanity by extending our awareness of people and nature. Wearing these new digital "glasses," how do we see each other and our world in alternative ways? We are looking for works that: * Illuminate the role digital media play in shaping, extending, and reflecting world views and cosmologies. * Address ecological, social, and political issues in imaginative and innovative ways. * Foster respect, tolerance, and empathy among people and nations. Creative and critical works exploring relationships between people and their environment, connections between biodiversity and cultural diversity, and related ethical issues are welcome. A special invitation is extended to artist-scientists (including collaborations) actively engaged in these investigations. We encourage participation by people who are working creatively in all cultures, including the developing world and indigenous communities, with a combination of physical and digital processes, including (but not limited to) digital photography and digital video, handcrafts, folk and fine art, ethnography, and world music. By actively bringing the richness of the world's cultural traditions to the field of computer graphics and interactive media, we hope to catalyze understanding and collaboration across cultures, and contribute to development of a more intelligent, responsible, and democratic world language. International Participation and Support Because the theme of this year's show is global, we are encouraging increased international participation and cooperation. To support this, we will be working with ACM SIGGRAPH Professional and Student Chapters around the world and other organizations to help identify and assist artists and scientists worldwide, with a special welcome for those in countries and communities historically under-represented at the SIGGRAPH conference. If you have a proposal that addresses the goals of the SIGGRAPH 2007 Art Gallery and are working either independently or together with an international cultural organization, we want to hear from you. We want to make it possible for creative people everywhere, including those in developing countries working with limited resources, to participate. We will try to support as many deserving projects as we can. Please contact the HYPERLINK "http://www.siggraph.org/s2007/comments/index_0.html"Art Gallery Chairs and/or the HYPERLINK "http://www.siggraph.org/s2007/comments/index_8.html"International Resources Chair.

If English is not your first language, the HYPERLINK "http://www.siggraph.org/s2007/volunteers/international/english.html"English Review Service is available to help with grammar and spelling. The SIGGRAPH 2007 Art Gallery is considering (but not limited to) the following types of work: * Still images * Time-based work * Art installations and environments * Art sculptures and objects * Digital communities, including alternative networks, mobile, and locative media * Electronically mediated performances * Interactive art, including CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, web-based, and responsive media * Trans-forms: emerging forms at the intersection between computing and the sciences, arts, and/or humanities We are delighted that the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (HYPERLINK "http://calit2.net"Cal-IT2) and the Center for Research in Computing and the Arts (HYPERLINK "http://crca.ucsd.edu"CRCA) at the University of California, San Diego are making their state-of-the-art facilities available for installations and performances. Artists are invited to propose projects for these specific HYPERLINK "http://crca.ucsd.edu/SIGGRAPH_2007_call/NMA-resources.html"venues. A subset of accepted artists will be selected to talk about their work in two ways: * Gallery Talks * Panel Discussions We recommend that artists also consider submitting their artwork to the following SIGGRAPH 2007 programs: HYPERLINK "http://www.siggraph.org/s2007/presenters/caf/index.html"Computer Animation Festival Computer animation that is artistically expressive in any genre, including experimental, narrative, or non-narrative should be submitted to the Computer Animation Festival. HYPERLINK "http://www.siggraph.org/s2007/presenters/etech/index.html"Emerging Technologies If your work has an aesthetic component but is mainly a technology demonstration, please submit it to Emerging Technologies.

Conferences

by Andrew Clifford

I thought this post to the Australasian Computer Music list (ACMA) would be of interest to ADAers due to recurring discussion here of conference-structures in the age of digital networks. Andrew ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kevin Austin" Sent: Thursday, December 07, 2006 5:12 AM Subject: Re: [Acma-l] [WAVE_LIST(a)UNT.EDU] well, hey - here ya go Hmmm ... I began to question the real continuing value of conferences a couple of decades ago before there was an alternative. Technology has made the conference, in my view, an anachronism that will go the way of the symphony concert. But maybe it has a different community function than the 'exchange of information'. Kind of like the annual office party. Have many people read the 1995 Proceedings from ICMA (ICMC) lately? Bourges has an archive of materials which one needs to go to read / hear them. But that's in the tradition of the european monastery, where knowledge is power. The "third option" appeared about 15 years ago in the concept of creating an international association that existed only in the virtual world. There would be some kind of large 'sonic archive', supported by a relational database connected to some form of web-publication. Articles would remain available indefinitely (depending upon technology), and there would be two or three other layers of information flow. The other layers would include an on-line conferencing system for announcements and day-to-day discussions, perhaps an email list. At a (temporal) level below would be some kind of slower moving source of information, ideas, resources, references, dictionary ... Once again, the technology was not available 20 years ago, but today the Wiki is filling that gap. There was the possibility of the development of this 'third stream' (the others being CIME / ICEM and ICMA), and now a new "third player" is emerging, the EMS network that appears to be working on the 'softer edge' of the ea community ... annual conferences with topics drawn from the philosophical / sociological side of ea, but not really into the 'global aesthetic' found in the visual arts and communication studies. The EMS association has its journal (OS) and a secondary source dictionary, and (if I read correctly) will announce a membership policy in December 2007, so that ea practitioners around the (english-speaking) world will have the option of ICMA - Computer Music Journal, and EMS - Organized Sound, while the (non-anglophone) 'individual member' is still in a quandary of working through national associations that may or may not have broken with CIME. My limited experience with a younger generation is that this model of activity, promotion and ... even community, is a dead end. Elizabeth has pointed out that the 'academic motor' of the university is failing (or has failed) with the younger generation. I get emails asking "what can I do with my degree in ea" on a regular basis. My replies are drawn from the information I get from my students ... Academia is not where "it" (whatever that is) is 'happening', but how to make a living doing 'sound'. The answers come to me in the general sense of "the media" (idiot!!). Sound design for video, film, web, commercials, games ... etc etc are where the paying jobs are going to be, and it's growing. ... Well, I didn't get a performance of my laptop dancing piece at the conference, but I got a 9 month contract to do sound design ... $45,000 ... The long term viability of existing national / international organizations ... from here, not very good. They are on academic life support. How many people who went to ICMC or SEAMUS or EMS paid with their own money? If the registration budget was (say 100 people at $150 per head) $15,000, of which 75% was academic funding, $11,000 was "university to university" transfer. But it cost the academic institution much more, because while registration was $150, three days plus transportation comes in at around $1000. Is this a good use of limited academic resources? But wisdom is not genetic. A sad day here: http://archives.cbc.ca/IDD-1-70-398/disasters_tragedies/montreal_massacre/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/École_Polytechnique_Massacre Best Kevin
