UpStage - new and improved - festival launch Mobilise-Demobilise

by Vicki Smith

Kia Ora koutou :) Over the weekend of 15-18 October, audiences around the world can join online performances exploring the theme “mobilise/demobilise”, and celebrate the launch of the completely rebuilt and mobilised UpStage platform. See online here :) - https://mobilise-demobilise.eu/mobilise-demobilise-festival/ - https://upstage.org.nz/?p=8862 :: media release :: Mobilise/Demobilise Festival! Over the weekend of 15-17 October, audiences around the world can join online performances exploring the theme “mobilise/demobilise”. Time converters and live links to the stage will be available at www.mobilise-demobilise.eu. Mobilise/Demobilise began as an artistic response to a world of increasing conflict, crisis and emergency, before Covid19 lockdowns and travel restrictions forced us to live more and more of our lives online. Now, issues of human mobility and the impact of mobile technologies have become even more urgent. The unsustainability and inequality of the old “normal” can no longer be ignored, and we must imagine a new way forward. Mobilise/Demobilise brings a critical and artistic perspective to the current crises. Over the past year, artists in Germany, Austria, Sweden and Aotearoa New Zealand have researched the theme and learned to use the online platform UpStage for presenting live online events. Different thematic threads have emerged in each locations. In Austria, the artists’ platform Schaumbad Freies Atelierhaus Graz have asked the public what kind of a city they want, and how might the city look without cars. In Malmo, Sweden, Teater InterAkt is working with young skaters to understand their perspective on issues of mobility and the environment. And in Whakatū (Nelson, NZ) the historic shifting of the tideway is used as a metaphor for the relationship between human expansion and the natural environment. Connecting and underscoring the performances are the universal concepts of loss and grief associated with climate change and societal upheaval that the world is experiencing. Audiences in Europe and globally will be invited to reflect on and discuss the theme and concepts at the weekend’s opening and closing events. The performances launch the newly “mobilised” version of UpStage, which now functions on mobile devices as well as desktop and laptop computers and incorporates many new features. Audiences click on a link and UpStage opens in a web browser; they can interact in real time via text chat and reaction emojis. Mobilise/Demobilise is a Creative Europe funded collaboration between Teater Interakt (Sweden), Schaumbad - Freies Atelierhaus Graz (Austria) and UpStage@CCT (the Centre for the Cultivation of Technology, Germany). Schaumbad's participation is supported by the Bundesministerium für Kunst, Kultur, öffentliche Dienst und Sport (Austria). Participating Artists: Katharina Aschauer, Manel Ruiz Blas, cym, Parnian Faizi, Alexandra Gschiel, Eva-Maria Gugg, Doris Jauk-Hinz, Anita Hofer, Rebecca Hofer, Helen Varley Jamieson, Sara Larsdotter Hallquist, Jesper Miikman, Cecilia Nkolina, Keyvan Paydar, John-Paul Pochin, Lyn Russell, Sally Shaw, Vicki Smith, Eva Ursprung, Faye Wulff and Karl Wulff. Partners: UpStage is an online platform for cyberformance (networked performance) and an international community of artists. The platform was first developed in Aotearoa New Zealand in 2003 and since then has hosted many online festivals, performances and events. www.upstage.org.nz Teater Interakt is a community theatre company based in Malmö, Sweden, that works intensively together with people with experience of migration, mainly in the asylum-process, creating performances communicating alternative narratives of migration and Swedish identity. www.teaterinterakt.se Schaumbad - Freies Atelierhaus Graz is a multi-disciplinary artists’ platform in Graz, Austria that provides studios for about 30 artists, and organises exhibitions, events and intercultural exchanges. www.schaumbad.mur.at The Center for the Cultivation of Technology acts as a host organisation for international free software projects, providing organisational infrastructure. www.techcultivation.org :: ends ::

NZ Artists working AI / VR

by mark williams

Kia ora tatou, I was wondering if anyone on the list was aware of any local contemporary artists working with AI and VR? There is the Jess Johnson/Simon Ward work, but there's not a whole of other people who seem to be regularly using these platforms. Perhaps there's some activity going on under the hood. Ngā mihi Mark

Remember the UpStage Festivals? 2021 an exploration of the haptic experience of internet connected proximal experiences We warmly invite you to Bodies:On:Live - Magdalena:On:Line 2021,the first Online Magdalena Festival, from 24 - 27 June 2021 Bodies:On:Live calls us together to explore the online space, to keep our encounters alive and inclusive; and to ask, what is the way forward? How will our live, embodied artistic practice be transformed and continue to engage and inspire us in the online space? What happens to theatre when bodies are distant, when here is also there? Bodies:On:Live is affiliated with The Magdalena Project, a dynamic, intergenerational and cross-cultural network for women in contemporary theatre and performance. In 35+ years of activities, there have been over 100 Magdalena festivals and gatherings in more than 20 countries. As places are limited, we recommend that you book as soon as possible. The festival program is structured in blocks of several events. Booking for one event gives you access to all events in the same block. In order to be accessible across economic realities, the ticket prices are ‘pay-what-you-can’. Donations are welcome. You can find the media release below for easy reference. Please share this with your contacts and networks. We hope to see you at our festival, and that you will find it a rich and amazing experience. >>>>>MEDIA RELEASE<<<<<< Bodies:On:Live - Magdalena:On:Line 2021 The First Online Magdalena Festival 24-27 June 2021 Historically, pandemics have forced humans to break with the past and imagine their world anew. This one is no different. It is a portal, a gateway between one world and the next." Arundhati Roy (2020) Bodies:On:Live calls us together to explore the online space, to keep our encounters alive and inclusive; and to ask, what is the way forward? How will our live, embodied artistic practice be transformed and continue to engage and inspire us in the online space? What happens to theatre when bodies are distant, when here is also there? Elizabeth de Roza initiator of the festival, says: “The intention for the festival was sparked by a curiosity when the world was in lockdown and festivals and events had to be cancelled. I wondered, how can our work and the Magdalena network remain relevant, when until now the Magdalena festivals have happened in proximal space? What might an online Magdalena festival look like?” Bodies:On:Live is affiliated with The Magdalena Project, a dynamic, intergenerational and cross-cultural network for women in contemporary theatre and performance.

After much hype and the global ‘tokenize everything’ attitudes of recent months, what’s left to discuss concerning NFTs? Moving on from common misconceptions regarding electricity usage and rampant tech bro portrayals of a ‘future artworld’, this panel seeks to further examine practical use-cases from ‘crypto art’ aesthetics and culture, and its underlying set of technologies that is now driving ever more platform-capitalist centralisation as well as a thriving new ‘creative’ underground with a Web3 fetish. What affordances do the technologies under discussion provide when concepts such as ‘proxy contracts’, ‘liquidity pool mining’ and ‘bonding curve sale’ mechanisms enter the vocabulary and (NFT-)toolkits of artistic practice, and to what end do such concepts sustainably manifest themselves in an aesthetic preoccupied with financialization and networked performance metrics? A panel with Eric Barry Drasin, Fabio Morreale, and Alex Smith, moderated by Walter Langelaar. _ The Token-conditional Social. Communities have always experimented with new forms of exchange, such as issuing their own currencies outside of governments and banks, to take ownership of and strive for environmental, ethical, economic, and social outcomes that are meaningful to them. Today we are seeing increasing momentum behind Web3 (or decentralised web), bringing grassroots community organising into direct contact with blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and digital tokens. As a result, initiatives such as timebanks, mutual credit networks, local currencies, and others are grappling with these technological possibilities and their impacts on value exchange, data governance, and community structures. Against this evolving technological backdrop, there is a need to reevaluate and explore community-level meanings of governance, identity, permanence, trust, and fairness. This panel brings together Helen Dew, Mark Pascall, Robert Kirkby, and Dmitriy Ageyev, moderated by Jennifer Ferreira. _ Māori/Indigenous Self-Sovereign Identity, and other protocol. As our nearing post-COVID realities pose yet another critical turn and opportunity for national governments to propose/impose far reaching implementation of technical infrastructure, in order to facilitate ideas surrounding ‘vaccine passports’ and further tokenised identity management (such as SSI), we are increasingly confronted with narrow and decontextualised notions of ‘autonomy’ and ‘sovereignty’ originating from the (blockchain/DLT) startup/tech sector. This panel brings together a group of researchers and practitioners working in the periphery of initiatives such as Te Mana Raraunga – Māori Data Sovereignty Network, and elaborates an indigenous world view on cultural engagement strategies through sociotechnical protocol and Tikanga Māori, to share its practice across various projects for further knowledge transference and discussion. The panel includes Kevin Shedlock, Kaye-Maree Dunn, Billie Lythberg, Mile Thompson, and Steve Reeves, moderated by Songyi Lee. _ MONEYLAB COMMUNITY CALL-IN: Across the Timezones with confirmed presentations by: Molly Mullen on the Disruptive Technologies and Value Co-creation in the Arts research group at Auckland University Joshua Vial from Enspiral Dev Academy on the recently founded (Wellington-based) Crypto Coding Club Pedro Victor Brandão on the Acerola Fund, dedicated to acquisition of non-fungible tokens created by artists in the global south. ++ more TBA ! MoneyLab #12 Wellington will have two moments in its programme for further, ad-hoc community engagement, and we invite you to come in and present your project or announce special events and connect with the conference audience on the Saturday via Zoom or similar (5 June, 5pm GMT+12). Showing up in-person is of course also an option :) If interested, please contact Walter via walter.langelaar(a)vuw.ac.nz for more information.
