<p>Mom Bean loves Springtime and so do we. Expecially chasing the critters around the yard. Dad Bean bought her a truck load of what she called "mater plants" (note red balls on the green thing in the orange pot). She didn't plan to grow them this year cuz the grasshoppers eat the leaves. YUCK! But Dad insisted he had a hankering for 'maters'. Whatever...</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>April 25 - June 6, 2008</p>
<p>A solo show presenting the work of the Montreal-based media artist, featuring his most striking robotic and electronic installations. Curated by Heather Corcoran, <a href="http://michelle.kasprzak.ca/" target="_self">Michelle Kasprzak</a> and <a href="http://www.luna-nera.com/" target="_self">Gillian McIver</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.eric-raymond.com/" target="_self">Eric Raymond</a> has been active in the field of electronic arts for over a decade, having exhibited widely in Canada and internationally, including the Absolut LA International Biennial Art Invitational (US) and Ars Electronica (Linz, Austria).</p>

Raymond’s solo show explores the dynamic between technology and our natural world, and represents the first part of <em>Schematic: New Media Art from Canada</em>, a group exhibition opening in London later this year.</p>
<p>The initiative behind <em>Schematic</em> is to create an opportunity to present Canadian media art to London audiences and to open up new opportunities for Canadian artists. <em>Schematic</em> looks at the idea of "the artist as engineer" where the artist is also an "inventor" engaging with technology. At the same time, the artists and their works present a "Canadian" vision and perspectives, addressing ideas such as the relationship of nature and culture, climate, landscape and national mythologies.</p>

<description><![CDATA[I had an extra hour this week between sessions while attending a board of advisors meeting in San ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I had an extra hour this week between sessions while attending a board of advisors meeting in San Francisco, so I walked two blocks to the Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA). I really love this structure and was here while it was under construction, then came back a couple of times after it opened. The finished product is an appropriate space for a modern art collection. It's constructed in perfectly even layers of black, gray, white, brown and blue. The modern interpretation of geologic strata found naturally in rocks of the west. Mostly straight lines and crisp angles, with curves sprinkled in to soften the experience and direct your eyes back into the main space of the building. None of the art can be seen without taking sharp turns. It's the opposite of the Guggenheim in NY, where the art can be viewed from almost anywhere, as if one was surveying the landscape. An oval eye is proped up on top of the structure, evoking a communications dish poised to collect radio waves from the cosmos.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><a href="http://expedientmeans.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/sfmoma.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-377" src="http://expedientmeans.wordpress.com/files/2008/04/sfmoma.jpg" alt="" width="414" height="311" /></a></strong></p>
<p>There was a fascinating media art installation on the third floor entitled, <em>Opposing Mirrors and Video Monitors on Time Delay</em>. The artist is Dan Graham, and it was composed of two black and white television monitors, two video cameras and two large mirrors positioned on opposite sides of a wide gallery. As you approach, the camera records you, but holds it for a few seconds before feeding the video to a small TV screen. The result is a bit jarring. You move inquisitively toward the television screen expecting to see yourself but you don't. Suddenly you appear as you were a few seconds earlier, giving you an opportunity to study yourself in motion. It takes a while to notice what's going on, but once you get it, the brain lights up.</p>
<p>It's like that old trick where you are looking into what you believe to be a mirror, but in fact it's an opening, and someone else is facing you (your identical twin), pretending to be your reflection. That person mimics your body movements and facial expressions exactly, hoping to keep up the illusion. You then try to outsmart the reflection by making sudden, unexpected movements. In the trick it works, but in this installation, it's always you. I snapped this photo of me inside the monitor with my iPhone.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><a href="http://expedientmeans.wordpress.com/files/2008/04/videoart.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-378" src="http://expedientmeans.wordpress.com/files/2008/04/videoart.jpg" alt="" width="414" height="311" /></a></strong></p>
<p>Eventually you start performing, to see what you look like. You move in for a close up and make faces. Travel from one side of the gallery to the other and do it all over again. The mirrors keep the image moving and changes the point of view, so you can see both your front and back. Kind of a reality show on yourself, but without the personal humiliation or prize money. Everyone that passed by was instantly engaged. This is the power of modern art; the viewer participates and the common perspectives are challenged.</p>
<p>Unfortunately I didn't have time to see much of anything else, but captured a few more images on the way back to the summit.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The second piece of writing I did about art - aged 17 - was a study of 4 portraits in the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art by Alexie Jawlenski, Oskar Kokoschka, Emil Nolde and the Scottish artist James Cowie. They were all painted around the same time - 1930s - and were portriats - one a self-portrait - and I was fascinated by the way they looked out of the image and the way that the viewer was asked to look back.</p>
<p>This interchange - between gaze and gazer has consistently fascinated me (and many other people) - but I new none of the theoretical ground work then about the pyscho-sexual power relationships played out in the act of looking and representing - replicating and repeating the gaze in art.</p>
<p>Golan Levin's Eye Robot is fun .....</p>

<p>The first piece of writing was a confusing ramble on the problem of time in Constable's Haywain ..... little did I know that this would also be another constant problem that I would return to in my thinking.... that's for another day</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="padding-left:30px;"><em>Įsibėgėja gana ambicingas projektas, kurio sumanymas jau pusantrų metų tupėjo mano ir Vytauto Michelkevičiaus galvose: kartu su VšĮ "Mene" pradedamas Levo Manovichiaus knygos "The Language of New Media" lietuviškos versijos leidybos projektas. Pagal jau patvirtintus projekto planus, knyga bus išleista iki šių metų pabaigos. <a href="http://www.balsas.cc/lev-manovich-formos-ivadas/">Pirmasis knygos fragmentas jau publikuotas portale www.balsas.cc.</a><br />
</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://tomchatter.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/languageof-newmedia.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-57" src="http://tomchatter.wordpress.com/files/2008/04/languageof-newmedia.jpg" alt="" width="368" height="475" /></a></p>
<p><strong>"Naujųjų medijų kalba" - kodėl ji, kodėl dabar, kodėl lietuviškai?</strong></p>
<p>Trumpai apžvelgiant projekto esmę, ko gero, pirmiausia reikėtų nusakyti tam tikrą situacijos problematiką. Šiuo atveju problema yra dvilypė. Visų pirma, Lietuvoje jaučiamas naujausios kritinės literatūros apie naująsias medijas trūkumas. Didžioji naujausios šviečiamosios ir metodinės literatūros dalis yra užsienio kalba, todėl atsiranda sunkumų dėl jos integravimo į edukacines programas bei idėjų sklaidos plačiojoje visuomenėje. Internetinis žurnalas <a href="http://tomchatter.wordpress.com/wp-admin/www.balsas.cc">www.balsas.cc</a> šiandien yra kone vienintelis skaitmeninis "Prometėjas" Lietuvoje.</p>
<p>Kita problemos pusė - tai naujųjų medijų kritinio diskurso formavimas, kurio strategijas galima apčiuopti dažniausiai tik marginalinėse kultūrinės raiškos sferose. Imantis bendros medijų istorinės apžvalgos atsiranda netikslumų ne vien dėl kultūriškai įteisinto teorinio modelio nebuvimo, bet ir dėl termninijos, sąvokų neapibrėžtumų.</p>
<p>Tam, kad Lietuvos kultūros kritikai, dėstytojai, medijų aktyvistai, menininkai ir studentai galėtų adekvačiai vertinti bei kalbėti apie aktualius naujųjų medijų kultūros reiškinius, reikalinga terminologija, kuri padėtų plėtoti kritinį naujųjų medijų diskursą. Tai būtina norint turėti autentišką balsą ir kritišką nuomonę, o ne tenkintis pasyviu, informaciniais greitkeliais atplūstančių idėjų replikavimu.  „Naujųjų medijų kalba" atitinka vadovėlio, gido, pažintinio leidinio formatą. Be to, knygoje bus pateikiamas ir specifinių terminų bei sąvokų žodynėlis, kuris bus sudarytas išvertus knygos tekstą.</p>
<p>Lietuvos kontekste tai bus pirmoji knyga, kritiškai nagrinėjanti naująsias medijas ir pateikianti istorinę medijų raidos analizę. Knyga pirmiausia bus aktuali akademiniam šalies sluoksniui (studentams, dėstytojams), menininkams, naujųjų medijų aktyvistams, kultūros istorikams ir kritikams. Ji galės būti įtraukiama į universitetines mokymo programas, tapti pažintine priemone humanitarams ir visiems, kam įdomu susipažinti su naujosiomis medijomis ir apčiuopti istorines šiuolaikinės technokultūros gaires.</p>
<p>Projekto iniciatoriai ketina pasikviesti L.Manovichių į Lietuvą paskaitų ciklui ir seminarams, kritinėms diskusijoms ir naujausių medijų meno tendencijų aptarimui.</p>
<p>Tokios štai gairės. O kol kas - prie darbų.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Iki š.m. gegužės 31 d. Vilniuje vyks tarptautinio projekto „Mes visi skirtingi, visi vienodi“ kūrybinės dirbtuvės, į kurias kviečiami dalyvauti tiek pavieniai, tiek ir bendrijoms priklausantys tautinių mažumų atstovai. Projekto ekspozicijos bus rengiamos Vilniuje, Klaipėdoje, Lenkijos, Čekijos bei Vokietijos miestuose. Šį „Europos kultūrų dialogo metų 2008“ projektą vykdo asociacija „Lietuvos-Vokietijos Forumas“. <span> </span></span></strong></p>
<p style="margin:10pt 0 0.0001pt;">
<p><a href="http://tomchatter.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/tm-project-sample-0021.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-54" src="http://tomchatter.wordpress.com/files/2008/04/tm-project-sample-0021.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="442" /></a></p>
<p style="margin:10pt 0 0.0001pt;"><!--more--></p>
<p style="margin:10pt 0 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Projektu bus siekiama sudaryti naujas tarpkultūrinio bendradarbiavimo sąlygas, kurios padėtų naujai pažvelgti į tautinių mažumų problemas, kultūrinę savimonę ir identitetą. Projektas orientuojasi į socialinę tautinių mažumų atstovų integraciją ir pasitelkia identitetą formuojančius ženklus, idiomas, prietarus, išankstines nuostatas, stereotipus kaip pagrindines dialogą skatinančias, provokuojančias ir pozicionuojančias priemones. Naudojama viešumo strategija ir gana plati projekto realizavimo geografija (ekspozicijos Lietuvoje, Lenkijoje, Čekijoje, Voketijoje) padės pasiekti didesnę auditoriją ir paskatinti intensyvesnį dialogą tarp Lietuvos ir užsienio menininkų, prisidės prie Lietuvos kultūros sklaidos. </span></p>
<p style="margin:10pt 0 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Šio idėja projekto iniciatoriams kilo ilgai diskutuojant ne tik apie tautinių mažumų statusą, jų galimą ir esamą padėtį Lietuvoje, bet ir apie asmenines patirtis. Kaip teigė projekto kuratorė R.Černiauskaitė, „kartais tam, kad pripažintum elementarias tiesas, reikia peržengti nemažai prietarų ir baimių, kurios ilgainiui susiformuoja visuomenėje, kuri atsisako paprasčiausių bendravimo su kitataučiais formų. Žinoma, dažnai bendravimui trukdo kalbiniai barjerai, tačiau šiuo atveju universali meno kalba padės atrasti naujas bendravimo perspektyvas.“</span></p>
<p style="margin:10pt 0 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Projekto kuratorė: Rimantė Černiauskaitė („Lietuvos-Vokietijos Forumas“);<br />

<p style="margin:10pt 0 0.0001pt;"><strong><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Detaliau apie projektą </span></strong></p>
<p style="margin:10pt 0 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Pagrindinė projekto dalis – meninės „dirbtuvės" tautinėse bendrijose, kurių metu bus surengta fotosesija su visais norinčiais. Ketinama portretuoti žmones, priklausančius kitoms kultūroms ir tuo atskleisti žmonių tautinio identiteto ženklus, kuriuos kiekvienas žmogus sąmoningai, ar nesąmoningai siekia parodyti. Fotografijose žmonės bus vaizduojami kaip socialiniai vienetai, išoriškai (savo apranga, laikysena, atributika) vienaip, ar kitaip deklaruojantys savo kitatautiškumą, kadangi  šiuo atveju būtent vizualios skirtybės, „kitoniškumas" formuoja asmens tapatumą. Tai kūrybinis žaidimas, kuriame formali estetinė forma (fotografuojama visu ūgiu, sklaidytoje šviesoje, neutraliame, baltame fone), rodomi jausmai ir simboliai tampa pagrindiniais meninės kalbos elementais. Visa projekto „dirbtuvių" metu surinkta medžiaga, visi padaryti portretai bus naudojami parodose, kurios bus rengiamos Lietuvos, Lenkijos, Čekijos ir Vokietijos miestuose. Parodos vyks viešosiose erdvėse – miesto aikštėse, skveruose, kur videoprojekcijų pagalba vaizdai bus projektuojami ant pastatų sienų. Kartu su portretais videoprojekcijų ant pastatų metu bus rodomi ir tekstai, funkcionuojantys ir kaip savarankiški konceptualiojo meno kūriniai, ir kaip integrali projekto dalis, padedanti aiškiau perteikti projekto idėją ir siekius. </span><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Tam bus naudojami specialiai sukurti ir videoprojekcijoms miesto erdvėje pritaikyti tekstai (plačiau apie projektą "Keistos tiesos" - <a href="http://tomchatter.wordpress.com/keistos-tiesos" target="_blank">http://tomchatter.wordpress.com/keistos-tiesos/</a>). Į viešąją erdvę orientuota projekto forma atspindi pagrindinę jo idėją – integruoti „kitoniškumo" ženklus į kasdienes erdves, skatinti tarpkultūrinį dialogą ir ieškoti naujų to dialogo formų. Miestuose, kuriuose vyks parodos, taip pat bus rengiamos analogiškos „dirbtuvės" su vietinių tautinių bendrijų nariais ir nauja medžiaga papildys esamus ekspozicijos portretus.</span></p>

Projekte „Mes visi skirtingi, visi vienodi“ dalyvauja kaip portretų fotografė.<br />
“Įdomu, kaip portertauojamieji atskleis save priešais objektyvą, ar galima bus įžvelgti jų tapatybę? Man šis projektas veikiau panašus į žaidimą, kuriame per fotografiją ieškoma būdų pažinti „kitą“. Panašiu principu kažkada susipažinau su savo kaimynais. „Polocko 8“ (diplominis darbas, audio- video instaliacijoja, UMI galerija,2005). Todėl nudžiugau gavusi pasiūlymą dirbti šitame projekte. Noriu išbandyti savo santykį į žmogų per fotografiją. Džiugu, kad galiu išeiti ir stebėti – fiksuoti didesnes žmonių grupes (šiuo atveju - tautines mažumas).”</span></p>

<p><strong>Berardo Carboni - Fly me / Volavola</strong></p>
<p>bio:<br />
Berardo Carboni (1975) has taken a degree in law, he is scenario writer and director, and he has made several shorts and documentary films that have been chosen for national and international festivals.<br />
He has worked with Lara Favaretto to the making of videos for the art circuit; they have been awarded prizes inside important environments (Furla Prize, Venice, 2001; P.S. 1 studio program, Muma, New York, 2002). Together with Lara Favaretto he also worked in 2003 at his first full-length film, Buco nell'acqua, a TV-movie with Sandra Milo, produced by Mediatrade.<br />
Currently he is working on the project "Fly me / Volavola"</p>
<p>Fly Me / Volavola - The Movie<br />
Volavola is about human beings, emotions becoming inevitably dull, the want not to surrender to habit always striving for more, and that love in need to be kept alive and preserved from its natural decay. There are two films in Volavola, both of them with the same screenplay. However, the first film will be shot in 3-D computer graphics, also exploring the virtual worlds of Second Life. The plot, as it unravels, specifically aims to disorient the viewer when it becomes increasingly difficult to understand what is actually real and what is not. Real avatars and real people, interpreting themselves, plus fictional<br />
characters, both computer generated and in flesh and blood, are all playing different roles throughout the entire picture. Finally, Volavola also deals in a sociological way, sometimes even surreal, with themes such as hacker ethics or the values shared in a virtual society, topics which are too often left out by science-fiction in general. The main message is to defend those values, as they play an important part in our cultural heritage by helping us to build a better place to live for everyone. The entire film will be set in Rome as the actual city and as a virtual one where it is now possible to meet characters coming from different virtual universes. The two films will be mirroring each-other. Although the pictures will be distributed through different medias.</p>
<p>Berardo Carboni who previously shot Shooting Silvio, wrote the script in collaboration whith the writer, Mario Gerosa author of the book Virtual Words and Second life, currently on its third reprint, chief-editor of "AD, architectural digest italia-" magazine and professor of cultural planning of the territory and comunication at the "Politecnico di Milano". Berardo Carboni. is also working on the direction of both parts of the production.</p>

<p><strong>Nicolas Barrial - Basics of  “building in Second Life” </strong></p>
<p>Nicolas Barrial (Nick Rhodes in SL) build the virtual representation of La Cantine in Second Life.</p>
<p>La Cantine is a creative, experimental and innovative space dedicated to digital technologies, located in the center of Paris.</p>
<p>Both a place of exchange and a technological showcase, La Cantine is open to professionals, tech enthusiasts and everyday users. This place is dedicated to ascending innovation welcome all contributors to digital life. La Cantine favors the conception and emergence of new uses, products and services by accelerating ideas, creation and networked innovation.</p>
<p>A true collaborative platform, La Cantine is a new space for sharing experience and skills (co-working, art-oriented platforms, alternative venues, competitive clusters, specialized research labs, colleges and universities).</p>
<p>This desire to share and find new ways to collaborate made it natural to extend its activity to virtual worlds. One of the main partner of La Cantine being Orange, Orange Island sounded like the perfect place for implementation of the virtual Cantine. </p>
<p>At "La Cantine Virtuelle", you will attend mixed reality events with partners in Paris but also find content of innovative projects. </p>

<p>Terra Trance / Rinpa Eshidan</p>
<p>Rinpa Eshidan es un grupo de artistas japoneses de street art, liderado por Yoshiaki Kusunoki y Daisuke Yamamoto quienes crean videos de arte en acción, y creen que el proceso de creación está relacionado con la vida misma e intentan incorporar a la audiencia en esa perspectiva.</p>
<p>No centran su foco en el final de la obra terminada, sino el proceso y en la idea de "hacer arte", por eso la obra se pinta, se reescribe y se borra múltiples veces y todas estas quedan registradas en la filmación que es la obra misma.</p>

<blockquote><p><i><b><a href="http://www.sonicacts.com/" target="_blank">Sonic Acts XII festival</a> takes place between 21 - 24 February 2008 in Amsterdam.</b> The twelfth edition of this festival is devoted to The Cinematic Experience and includes an international conference, a wide range of concerts and performances, an exhibition and a diverse programme of films. The 2008 edition promises a comprehensive overview of the cinematic experience. Recent technological developments in digitalisation, higher-definition imagary and sound, ever-faster communication networks and new types of portable video players make it necessary to re-address the question of what cinema actually is. Developments such as experiential spaces, immersion and sublimation in contemporary music and visual arts add to the urgency of this question.</i></p>

<blockquote><p><i>What is an avatar? Why are there nearly a billion of them, and who is using them? Do avatars impact our real lives, or are they just video game conceits? Is an avatar an inspired rendering of its creator's inner self, or is it just one among millions of anonymous vehicles clogging the online freeways? Can we use our avatars to really connect with people, or do they just isolate us? And as we become more like our avatars do they become more like us?  </i><a HREF="http://www.planetart.nl/now.htm" TARGET="_blank"><img ALIGN="right" HEIGHT="201" WIDTH="209" BORDER="0" ALT="pighed" SRC="http://www.planetart.nl/iris/pighed3.jpg" /></a></p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p><i>In I, Avatar, Mark Stephen Meadows answers some of these questions, but more importantly, he raises hundreds of others in his exploration of avatars and the fascinating possibilities they hold. His examination of avatars through the lenses of sociology, psychology, politics, history, and art, he will change the way you look at even a simple online profile and revolutionize the idea of avatars as part of our lives, whether first or second.</i></p></blockquote>

<p><a href="http://www.kodomo.go.jp/gallery/transmission_web/JP/swf/index.html">国際子ども図書館</a>の館内展示とほぼ同等のコンテンツを公開しています。</p>
<blockquote><p>最初の活字印刷本は、1455年におけるグーテンブルグ出版の「42行聖書」でした。子どもの絵本が世の中に一つの位置づけをされるのは、印刷機が発明さ れてから数百年後のことになりますが、既に1474年にはイソップの「伝記と寓話」が高度な装飾入りで、ミラノで出版されています。</p>
<p>活字文化の初期においては、子どもの本という概念での出版物はなく、むしろ聖書、道徳や知識の本が挿絵入りで出版されることが普通でした。しかし、17 世紀半ば頃になると、英国では呼び売り本（チャップブック）と呼ばれる民衆のための小型本が登場し始め、同じ頃、ニューベリーという人がロンドンで子ども の本の出版社を開業しています。一方で、アルファベットを習うためのホーンブックは識字道具として、印刷術が普及するずっと以前から出回っていました。で すから、19世紀の子どものための絵本の時代が訪れる以前は、教育や知識の絵入り本が多く出版されていたのが現状だったといえるでしょう。</p>
<p>一方で、木版や銅板などの彫版師たちは技術的にも芸術的にも研鑽をかさね、高度な表現力を追求しながら、静かに数々の名作を世に送り出し、やがて19世 紀後半の華やかな木版多色刷り印刷の時代を迎える蓄積に、いとまがなかったように映ります。『子どもの絵本--イメージの伝承』に登場する絵本たちは、 19世紀後半からのめまぐるしい印刷技術の開発以前の、初期の書物のなかに登場して、子どもへの伝承の具体的な記録の例となるものです。</p>
<p>機械技術の発展による社会構造の変化は、印刷を飛び越した情報技術時代をもたらしています。しかし、現在の世界を築き上げたのは、まぎれもなく過去500年にわたる書物の歴史といえるでしょう。</p></blockquote>
