by Medialab-Prado comunicacion

*MEDIALAB-PRADO* Plaza de las Letras C/ Alameda, 15 28014 Madrid (Spain) +34 913 692 303 www.medialab-prado.es * *_ _ __Medialab-Prado receives an Honorary Mention at Prix Ars Electronica 2010 _May 31, 2010_ *The production platform Interactivos? wins an Honorary Mention in the category of "Interactive Art" as a unique space for the collective creation of interactive installations.* Since Interactivos? was held for the first time in 2006, it has had remarkable success with its open innovation model, in which ten ideas chosen through a public open call are developed by groups of collaborators from all over the world. They attend the workshop to contribute their knowledge to carrying out the projects. During the two-week workshop, a context for collective learning and living and working together is created that generates surprising results. To date, 17 workshops have been held around the world adhering to the Interactivos? methodology, giving rise to over 150 projects including augmented reality games, data visualization, performing arts, experimental video games, and sound installations. Artists, designers, educators, researchers, scientists, sociologists, etc. have taken part, each contributing their varying types of knowledge and specializations, making a very productive and enriching learning and creation environment. Ars Electronica has given annual awards since 1987 to the most outstanding projects in digital culture worldwide, including interactive works and installations, digital communities, sound art, and computer animation. In the case of Interactivos? from Medialab-Prado, an exceptional award was given to a platform for experimentation and collective creation of prototypes of interactive installations, whose success has been proved throughout nine international workshops held in various cities around the world (Madrid, New York, Lima, Mexico, Gijón and San Sebastián) over the past four years. The next Interactivos? workshop will be held at Medialab-Prado from 7-23 June 2010, titled *Interactivos?'10: Neighbourhood Science* The call for collaborators will be open until June 4, 2010 (no registration fee).

101010 UpStage Festival - selected performances announced

by helen varley jamieson

Media Release 26 May 2010 For immediate release Performances announced for 101010 UpStage Festival A record 19 performances have been selected for the 101010 UpStage Festival <http://upstage.org.nz/blog/?page_id=680>, the fourth annual showcase of cyberformance using the UpStage platform, which takes place this year on and around 10 October. Artists from 11 countries, traversing seven time zones, will present shows on a wide variety of themes. Common to all shows is the use of UpStage <http://upstage.org.nz/>, a web-based platform that enables remote performers to collaborate in real time for an online audience. Audiences can easily access the performances with only a standard web browser and internet connection, and there will be "real life access nodes" in some locations. Festival curators Vicki Smith, Dan Untitled and Helen Varley Jamieson said that once again the call for proposals had resulted in a diversity of ideas, themes and approaches. "We don't place any restrictions on the artists, other than the length of their shows (not longer than 20 minutes)," says Jamieson. "We leave the form and content open to encourage experimentation and innovation. It also means the programme has something for everyone." This year, the programme has been divided into four groups. "Temporal" groups together shows which explore sound and movement across time and networks. The performances in "Trajectory" follow traces, trails and tracks. Thought-provoking and brain-teasing shows can be found in "Tendrils", while those in "Transgress" invite audiences to cross boundaries or limits. There are dance-based performances, theoretical meditations, comedy, explorations of sexuality, conceptual works, who-dunnits, creative interpretations of technology and numerous interactive works. Several performances will have participatory contexts prior to the festival and some are part of larger projects. The full list of performances is included at the end of this release, and information about each show is online at www.upstage.org.nz <http://www.upstage.org.nz>. Just over half of the shows are by artists who have previously made work in UpStage, with eight shows coming from artists new to UpStage. Many of the new artists are established in other disciplines, including theatre, dance, music and visual arts, and are interested in the challenge of extending their practice into cyberspace. "It's exciting to see the variety of approaches from new artists," says Jamieson, "as well as the directions in which experienced UpStage artists are moving. There is technical experimentation as well as pushing interactivity and the evolving relationship between performers and audience in a real-time online environment." As with previous festivals, there will be RL (real life) access nodes around the world. So far RL nodes have been confirmed in New York, Slovenia, Wellington (New Zealand) and Calgary (Canada); others will be announced as they are confirmed. RL access nodes provide a physical venue where audiences can watch and participate in the festival. Sometimes performances are staged from nodes, combining the online and proximal environments and audiences. The full list of performances, information about each show and links to participate, is available on the UpStage web site: http://www.upstage.org.nz. The schedule of performances will be available closer to the time of the festival. For more information, contact info(a)upstage.org.nz *Performances selected for the 101010 UpStage Festival:* * "A little online communion" by Bishop Bishop (Sheila Bishop), Josh Cajinarobleto & Mitzi MIze (USA) * "MASS-MESS" by Katarina DJ.

"slow media" articles

by Sonja van K

ter info, sonja Call for Papers Transformations Journal: "Slow Media" Abstract submissions due (500 words): 1 July 2010 Given the contemporary fascination with and, indeed, addiction to real-time media dispatch and commentary, what would it mean to speak of "slow media"? But while "slow media" as a term may appear primarily to describe a mode of resistance, it allows us to think about the speed of the media as such. Have our popular media always been increasing in speed? What is the end point of all of this, the apotheosis of real-time: are we, as Bernard Stiegler suggests, approaching the "time barrier"? And, what happens when we break it? For this issue of Transformations, we invite papers that meditate on the speeds and slownesses of the contemporary moment. Abstract submissions due (500 words): 1 July 2010, with a view to submit articles by 1 October 2010. Abstracts should be sent to Grayson Cooke at <mailto:grayson.cooke@scu.edu.au> grayson.cooke(a)scu.edu.au Visit: <http://www.transformationsjournal.org/journal/calls_for_papers.shtml> http://www.transformationsjournal.org/journal/calls_for_papers.shtml <http://www.transformationsjournal.org/journal/calls_for_papers.shtml> <http://www.transformationsjournal.org/journal/calls_for_papers.shtml> Sonja van KerkhoffART: http://www.sonjavank.com BLOG:www.sonjavank.blogspot.com DESIGN: www.sonjavank.com/design VIDEOS: www.youtube.com/sonjavank BOOKMARKS: http://del.icio.us/sonjavank _________________________________________________________________ 30 days of prizes: Hotmail makes your day easier!
