EXPOSITION EXPRESS numéro 5: ‘Open Internet’ – Docu
http://datenform.de/blog/exposition-express-numero-5-open-internet-docu/
[ english here ] EXPOSITION EXPRESS numéro 5 ‘Internet Libre’ jeudi dernier était hyper pète-cul!!! Merci à tout le mondes! Merci aux artistes pour leur participation et merci a Anne Roquigny et Marie Lechner pour l’ invitation et la collaboration! Paris, Je <3 ! (et je reviendrai en mai pour une présentation à la Gaîté Lyrique)
EXPOSITION EXPRESS numéro 5: ‘Open Internet’ Welat Internetcafe 12 Rue d’Enghien, Paris 7:00-11:00 PM, January 13th 2011 F.A.T. Lab After: Le dune café http://www.ledune.fr 18 avenue Claude Vellefaux, 75010 Paris Commissariat artistique et production : Aram Bartholl, Marie Lechner & Anne Roquigny
Artistes invités : Anonymous, Jean-Baptiste Bayle, Christophe Bruno & Samuel Tronçon, Claude Closky, Marika Dermineur, Caroline Delieutraz, Constant Dullaart, JODI, Jérôme Joy, Tobias Leingruber, Aymeric Mansoux & Dave Griffiths & Marloes de Valk, Albertine Meunier, Geraldine Juarez feat. M.I.A., Evan Roth, Systaime, VideOdrome mailing list, La Quadrature du Net (Jérémie Zimmermann). programme complèt cf. ci-dessous SPEED SHOW vol.5:’Open Internet’ – Paris from aram bartholl on Vimeo.
Open Internet 2010 a montré l’impact de la culture Internet libre à grande échelle. Les gouvernements et les lobbies industriels s’évertuent plus que jamais à mettre en place de nouvelles réglementations et outils pour contrôler le net. L’Internet doit rester ouvert et neutre! Assurez-vous que votre vie (en ligne) ou que votre activité professionnelle ne dépende pas d’une seule grande entreprise ou de restrictions gouvernementales. Il est important de toujours remettre en question les structures du net et d’échapper au conformisme social qui empêche tout recul. L’art sur internet et les sous cultures du réseau jouent un rôle de vigie, questionnant au quotidien les failles du web et les industries numériques transnationales. Nous sommes très heureux, pour le SPEED SHOW vol.5 ‘Open Internet’ – Paris, de présenter une sélection d’artistes internationaux et d’exposer des pièces récentes, dont certaines créées spécialement pour “Open Internet “. Les oeuvres interrogent l’impact de la culture pop du réseau, de l’open source, des pratiques amateurs et des engagements radicaux pour l’Internet ouvert. Aram Bartholl 2011 SPEED SHOW manifeste Repérez un cybercafé, louez tous les ordinateurs dont il dispose et organisez une exposition pour la soirée. Toutes les oeuvres des artistes participants doivent être en ligne (pas nécessairement publiques) et montrées dans un navigateur équipé des plug-ins standards. S’il s’agit d’une performance ou d’oeuvres en direct, elles doivent utiliser exclusivement des programmes préinstallés (messagerie instantanée, chat vidéo, voix par IP etc…). Les logiciels customisés (à l’exception des extensions de navigateur) ou les fichiers off-line ne sont pas admis. Les modifications physiques du cybercafé ne sont pas autorisées. L’exposition est publique et se tient durant les heures d’ouverture habituelles du cybercafé. Tous les visiteurs sont bienvenus au vernissage, pour découvrir des oeuvres artistiques (et pour consulter leur mail). Aram Bartholl 2010
Artistes invités : OPERATION BLING Anonymous 2011 Anonymous est le nom adopté par un groupe constitué d’hacktivistes et d’utilisateurs de 4chan qui met en place des manifestations et autres opérations sous cette étiquette conceptuelle (Anonyme). Ce nom fait généralement office de couverture pour des acteurs de l’underground. L’”OPERATION BLING” est un appel à s’insurger contre la censure gouvernementale et celle des puissants de ce monde au regard des récents évènements liés, entre autres, à Wikileaks. “Ecrivez sur tous vos billets de banque “You are anonymous” (tu es anonyme) et laissez le système faire le reste.” No Future Jean-Baptiste Bayle 2010 NO FUTURE ! NO LIFE ! FUCK CYBORGS ! FUCK GOOGLE ! FUCK 3D ! DEATH TO RAY KURZWEIL ! WE ARE THE CHIMPS ! MEDIUM IS NO MESSAGE ! NOFUTURE IS NOW ! “NF! est né en 2010, 10 ans après le futur, 100 ans après le futurisme. Le nofuturisme a pour but de favoriser l’émergence d’une nouvelle radicalité à même de résister au « bluff technologique » dans un contexte où corruption, apathie et renforcement de la propriété intellectuelle servent de ciment à une spoliation généralisée des droits humains fondamentaux.” NF déconstruit les techniques de désinformation et le spectacle de la propagande, via une collection de journaux télévisés extraits de films(http://www.nofuture.biz ) un journal de sous-veillance twitter (http://paper.li/n0_futur3), et de cartographies critiques « d’ un contre-imaginaire décolonisé » Jean Baptiste Bayle est un artiste, inactiviste, bricodeur. A l’«upgrade» permanent, moteur de l’économie numérique, il oppose le «downgrade», tentative de «résister à ce délire de technologies inutiles», de réfléchir à une alternative aux logiques propriétaires et de construire un futur collectivement par le partage des savoirs libres. ArtWar(e) Christophe Bruno et Samuel Tronçon 2010 Artwar(e) est une plate-forme de « gestion des risques artistiques » dont l`ambition est de reformuler l’histoire de l’art, les attitudes performatives et relationnelles, ainsi que les pratiques curatoriales, en utilisant des concepts récents issus du marketing, comme les « courbes de Hype ». Christophe Bruno propose une réflexion critique sur les phénomènes de réseau et de globalisation dans les champs du langage et de l’image. Il a été primé pour le Google Adwords Happening (à Ars Electronica) et pour Human Browser. A partir de mars 2011, il sera commissaire d’exposition pour l’espace virtuel du Jeu de Paume.
Future-Past Claude Closky 2010 Connu pour sa série, toujours en cours, de pages web uniques et minimales, Claude Closky pose à l’internaute la question de l’avenir et du passé dans un diagramme sans fin. Combien de temps nous reste-t-il? Qu’est-il arrivé dans le passé? Pourquoi y a -t-il si peu de futur? Des questions cruciales pour la société et l’humanité sont concentrées dans des diagrammes standards du langage stéréotypé Powerpoint. Existe-t-il une loi fondamentale qui régit notre futur ou passé ? Le Monde.fr Marika Dermineur 2010 Le Monde.fr est un site qui détourne les pages du quotidien national de référence, Le Monde. Il permet à l’internaute de remplacer n’importe quel mot du site par un autre mot, via un site miroir. L’oeuvre questionne le vocabulaire médiatique, l’impact des mots, expressions et courants dans l’actualité. Marika Dermineur est artiste, co-auteur notamment de Google House, qui construit en temps réel une maison à partir d’images de pièces d’habitation trouvées sur Internet, membre du collectif Rybn, responsable d’Upgrade! Paris et commissaire d’exposition, dont la dernière Politique 0 s’est déroulé au Centre Niemeyer, siège du Parti Communiste français. Blue meme Caroline Delieutraz 2010 Les visages d’humanoïdes à la peau bleue se succèdent dans un morphing hypnotique, des Zotriens d’Ulysse 31 aux Na’vi d’Avatar, des Draags, géants bleus de la Planète sauvage, aux « programmes » de Tron. Caroline Delieutraz extrait ces personnages de leur univers d’origine pour les associer dans une fiction commune. « Figures de l’étrange, mi-humain mi-autre chose (animal, extra-terrestre, robot…), ils représentent l’altérité. Ici, ils forment une sorte de communauté d’êtres hybrides…qui ne cessent de s’auto-engendrer. » Caroline Delieutraz questionne l’identité numérique, les conventions cartographiques. Elle est membre du collectif Microtruc (http://microtruc.net/) invité en ce moment à l’espace virtuel du Jeu de Paume, qui imagine des dispositifs navigant entre espace physique et espace virtuel. thesleepinginternet.com Constant Dullaart 2011 De sa série actuelle d’oeuvres portant sur les attributs d’Internet (thedisagreeinginternet.com ou therevolvinginternet.com etc.) Constant Dullaart pose la question de la personnalité d’Internet. A travers ses interventions discrètes via Iframe, Internet semble s’humaniser et faire preuve d’émotions. La page de recherche de Google, presque transparente et toujours légère (mais qui pèse lourd sur nos esprits par l’utilisation inconsciente et massive que nous en faisons) est défigurée par un détournement ludique du code qui remet en jeu nos attentes face à Internet. GG/Paris JODI 2011 Le duo d’artistes JODI est célèbre pour son travail consistant à déconstruire les logiciels et les systèmes en ligne depuis deux décennies. La base de données et les interfaces de programmation ouvertes de services comme Google Maps/ Earth permettent une variété infinie d’expressions visuelles imprévisibles. La série Geogoo de JODI a débuté avec des mash-ups aléatoires d’icônes Google Maps éparpillées à travers le globe et se poursuit par un voyage automatisé dans Google Streetview. Un tour de Paris mécanique contrôlé par une machine qui réinterprète les images satellites de Google d’une manière inattendue. Nocinema Jérôme Joy et le collectif nocinema.org 2011 (nouvelle version) Nocinema.org emporte le spectateur aux quatre coins du monde, en diffusant des images d’une sélection de webcams en direct. Road movie impressionniste généré live en ligne, sur une bande son mixée en direct, à partir d’une base de données sonores continuellement mise à jour, nocinema.org, documentaire/fiction en ligne au déroulé imprévisible est un film sans début ni fin, sans acteurs ni scénario, excepté les histoires qu’on se construit en suivant le film des images et des sons streamés. L’application est développée par Jérôme Joy, compositeur, explorant notamment la musique en réseau, il est le co-directeur de recherche de Locus Sonus, laboratoire de recherche en art audio. Facebook Resistance Tobias Leingruber 2011 « Facebook est en passe de devenir le système dominant en matière d’identités sociales et dicte la manière dont nous devons nous comporter. Devons nous nous satisfaire de la manière dont Facebook visualise notre identité en ligne ou souhaitons-nous la changer? Cette modification peut être aussi insignifiante que l’ajout d’une image de fond. Facebook conçoit votre identité en ligne de la même manière qu’IKEA conçoit votre intérieur. La seule façon de singulariser vos étagères BILLY est d’y déposer vos photos de famille. La “Résistance Facebook” est une initiative de recherche qui prend acte de l’immuabilité de Facebook en tant que système dominant de gestion d’identité en ligne. Cette recherche porte sur les moyens de modifier les règles à l’intérieur même du système, au niveau local, par l’utilisation d’extensions Firefox.” TL Naked on Pluto Aymeric Mansoux / Dave Griffiths / Marloes de Valk 2010 Naked on Pluto est un jeu textuel multijoueur sur Facebook. Le joueur se retrouve tout nu isolé sur la planète Pluto, le Las Vegas du système solaire, paradis des consommateurs et des multinationales du divertissement. Il peut explorer, acheter des gagdets inutiles, parler aux bots insipides, s’amuser avec ses amis et se prélasser dans le conformisme de son nouveau foyer. Un meilleur des mondes dont on ne peut s’échapper. Pourquoi d’ailleurs, puisqu’il est façonné pour assouvir vos moindres désirs. Le jeu explore les limites et la nature des réseaux sociaux de l’intérieur, et s’accompagnent d’interviews d’experts sur la manière dont nos données privées sont utilisées. Un projet sous GNU d’Aymeric Mansoux, Marloes de Valk et Dave Griffiths, trois artistes impliqués dans la promotion du logiciel libre, dont le développement est documenté sur http://www.facebook.com/is.so.convenient ou http://pluto.kuri.mu Tea Time with Albertine Albertine Meunier 2009 Demandez-leur ce qu’est un hacker, un flashmob, un spam, un smiley ou un octet, les demoiselles sont incollables. Dédée, Dolorès, Gisèle, Annick, Jacqueline ont en commun d’être toutes des femmes de plus de 80 ans, et n’avaient pour la plupart jamais mis les doigts sur un ordinateur. Jusqu’à ce qu’elles découvrent l’atelier Tea Time With Albertine, qu’anime, depuis mars 2008, la netartiste Albertine Meunier : une initiation au Web pour les seniors qui se déroule tous les quinze jours à Paris. A chaque fois qu’elles découvrent un nouveau concept, elles réalisent une vidéo qui alimente un glossaire internet. Albertine Meunier est active sur le réseau depuis 1998, elle s’est intéressé entre autres, aux questions de la vie privée et de l’exploitation des données personnelles (My Google Search History) VICKILEEKX.FFFFF.AT M.I.A. Mixtape mirror de Geraldine Juarez 2011 « Les récents évènements démontrent qu’il est notoirement difficile de contenir l’information et que cette dernière peut aisément ressortir n’importe où. F.A.T emploie les mêmes principes pour maintenir le mix Vickileekx de M.I.A en accès libre et gratuit pour tous. De surcroît, vous n’avez même pas à donner votre e-mail! Si néanmoins, vous souhaitez télécharger la version de ce mix faisant de la rétention de données, vous êtes priés d’aller sur le site VickiLeekx.com de M.I.A et d’y inscrire votre e-mail.» GJ Mashed Up Mashup Evan Roth 2011 Célèbre pour ses logiciels libres mâtinés de culture pop, EvanRoth remixe deux albums de GirlTalk qui sont, à l’origine, une bouillie auditive de samples dans le but de produire l’ultime album de mashup. Le sample et le remix existent depuis longtemps en musique, notamment dans le hip-hop. A l’ère d’Internet, des licences libres et de la culture de partage, c’est devenu la discipline par excellence. Mashed up Mashup est une parfaite représentation du chaos actuel entre copyright et licence libre sur Internet. My facebooklife Systaime 2011 Michaël Borras a.k.a Systaime… un pur rejeton de la culture numérique, celle qui rebat les cartes de nos identités, de notre rapport au monde. Trublion du réseau, il remixe le flux, égratigne les puissants et les poseurs, tout en mettant en lumière notre dépendance médiatique. Avec My facebooklife, Systaime joue avec l’interface très formatée du réseau social Facebook qu’il fait muter quotidiennement. VideOdrome VideOdrome Mailing List 2010-11 « Shh, not a word, videospam only». VideOdrome est une liste de diffusion, où les participants conversent exclusivement par vidéos interposées, pêchées sur le web. Une fois qu’on a souscrit à l’énigmatique liste (http://lists.machineaecrire.com/mailman/listinfo/videodrome), Videodrome ouvre ses vannes, distillant dans votre boîte aux lettres ses images séditieuses en flux continu, accaparant rétines et temps de cerveau disponible avec le spectacle ahurissant de ce vortex vidéo qu’est YouTube, entre mamies flingueuses, tourette karaoké, porn olympics, feu de bois et autres «sarkoseries». Robocopyright ACTA La Quadrature du net (Jérémie Zimmermann) 2010 La Quadrature du Net est une organisation de défense des droits et libertés des citoyens sur Internet. Elle promeut une adaptation de la législation française et européenne qui soit fidèle aux valeurs qui ont présidé au développement d’Internet, notamment la libre circulation de la connaissance. À ce titre, la Quadrature du Net intervient notamment dans les débats concernant la liberté d’expression, le droit d’auteur, la régulation du secteur des télécommunications ou encore le respect de la vie privée.

SPEED SHOW vol.4 NYC – wrap up
http://fffff.at/speed-show-4-wrap-up/
SPEED SHOW vol.4: Super Niche last Wednesday in Chinatown NYC was awesome! ’90 Bowery Internet Cafe’ provides approx. 200 state of the art gaming PCs on a large basement floor. On 24 of them there was great internet art on display for one night. Thx to all artists, to ’90 Bowery Internet Cafe’ and to the crowd for showing up! It was fun! SPEED SHOW manifesto and all prior SPEED SHOWs documented here fffff.at/speed-show.
SPEED SHOW vol.4: Super Niche Wednesday, 27th Oct. 2010, 8-11 PM 90 Bowery Internet Cafe, NY 10013 Has (inter)net.art left its niche? Or is it clustered into zillions of tiny net niches splintered into numerous subtopics? The Super Niche could be a very big niche, a surf-club which is almost mainstream (?) or a sub cell of a extreme small niche of a 1-visitor ever page in deprecated HTML oblivion. Learning from evolution the beauty lies in the absurdity of super niche solutions, of visual workarounds in every day life net culture. It’s time to create more niches! It’s time to superfy!

SPEED SHOW vol.3 – Docu!
http://fffff.at/speed-show-vol-3-docu/
On my way to the Netherlands last Wednesday (for the ‘Shadow Dance‘ group show in Amersfoort) I decided in the last minute to set up a SPEED SHOW on short notice in Amsterdam for the following day. At the end of the 6h train ride I had all artist emailed and confirmed, speed curated! Constant Dullaart picked a great Internet-shop remotely via Google Streetview (oh man, we finally need that in DE too!) and Peter Luining checked it out and fetched me a phone number. Thx for support! I called the guy the night before and all was set. Since the shop didn’t sell anything else than voice and internet we had to bring our own drinks. :-) (which he was cool with. Is that possible in NYC?!?) Although the show was anounnced only one night in advance we had a fine crowd of visitors and lot’s of rain (which made everyone look at the art ;-). Thx to all for showing up on short notice! Thx to the artists! Thx to the ‘A.Internetcafe’-team! Aram Bartholl 2010 Press / Blog posts:

SPEED SHOW vol.2 in Vienna
http://datenform.de/blog/speed-show-vol-2-in-vienna/
[first released on FAT http://fffff.at/speed-show-vol-2-in-vienna] SPEED SHOW vol.2: who the fuck do you think you are talking to? One night group show. The second show of an ongoing series: SPEED SHOW Opening! Thursday, 8th of July 2010, 19:00 – 22:00 h Äussere Mariahilferstr. 178, Vienna (G-maps)
Participating artists: (more info and links after the show here) - Margarete Jahrmann & Renate Christian - JODI - JK Keller - Greg Leuch - Michael Marcovici - Will Moffat & Peter Burns - monochrom - Evan Roth - Sakrowski - Gordan Savicic - Michael Schieben - Georg Schütz - Chris Sugrue - Philipp Teister & Kim Asendorf - UBERMORGEN.COM - Jamie Wilkinson curated by Aram Bartholl 2010
Curatorial Statement: SPEED SHOW vol.2: who the fuck do you think you are talking to? The 2nd edition of the SPEED SHOW presents again a wide selection of pop.net.art pieces and addresses various developments of performance related but still screen based art works. Most interaction and communication on the web bears it’s very own performance character. One could say Facebook is a huge mass performance piece. net.art in it’s classic form could be considered a performance by interactivity as well. In recent years artists from different fields work increasingly in a mix of performances and digital interventions. In some cases the screen itself, the beholder of the pixel is subject to fluctuations. In other works the performance is acted out by a hysterical mass or just by the code. Austrian art especially from the 60/70ies is very well known for their provocative performances and inexorable public interventions. With a regional focus on Vienna based artists mixed with international coders and net renegades the SPEED SHOW vol.2:who the fuck do you think you are talking to? presents a wide range of works from political activist, body interaction and net-performance related art. ‘Show Me What You Got!’ Aram Bartholl 2010
Credits: Thx to Georg Schütz for Vienna support! ‘

SPEED SHOW docu
http://datenform.de/blog/speed-show-docu/
[First released on F.A.T.] 1. Curate a show, make a call or invite your friends to show their works. 2. Announce the show all over the internetz! 3. Go to your local Internet shop and rent all machines they have. 4. Exhibit for one night screen based pop.net.art in your city! Go for it! It’s an open format! Let’s meet up in your local shop! SPEED SHOW manifest here
The first SPEED SHOW vol.1 : TELE-INTERNET last Friday was a great success! We had many more (and even ‘important’!) visitors than expected. The shop owners were totally surprised but loved it (and made the deal of the year :-). Since I didn’t post any links in advance I have the pleasure to publish now the four sheets of printed program(!) including statement for each piece and links below. Check the announcement including SPEED SHOW manifest and curatorial statement here. All pictures on fflickr
SPEED SHOW vol.1: TELE-INTERNET Friday 11th of June 2010, 21:00 – 00:00 Kottbusser Damm 103, Berlin Participating artists: MOAR!!! MAKE PAPER DANCE GIF GLITCHEEESSS (for J.Mack, J. Satrom & N. Briz) Material: HTML, embedded screen capture video,720×486 px, Jon Cates (US) 2010 MOAR!!! MAKE PAPER DANCE GIF GLITCHEEESSS is the reaction to a Twitter conversation with three friends on a single day. Jon Cates who is well know for his digital punk / raw bytes – style remixed a webpage which was already a reply to a first post by another friend. In the multitude of layers of the content from his friends animated gifs turn into actual video, color pixel into xerox dirty b/w and the audio results in abstract noise. Nervous News Material: HTML, iframe Constant Dullaart (NL) 2010 Nervous News is a new unreleased piece from Constant Dullaart’s series of website modifications of major famous websites on the Internet like Google or BBC News. By loading the BBC page through an iframe with its very own quality the page itself appears to become a person with emotional an condition . The moving iframe was already applied in the work “The Internet says no“ or “The Internet says yes“ (user reply) a.o. Education of the Noobz Material: HTML, mp3,ogg, flac, paypal Dragan Espenschied (DE) 2010 Contemporary Home Computer Music by Dragan Espenschied Dragan Espenschied is well known for his radical and consequent 8-bit music compositions for many years. His new music site Noobz represents a highly differentiated mix of plain HTML, amateur page style, custom music player interfaces and sophisticated code hidden in the upper layers. Thumbing Material: Youtube video comments JODI (NL/BE) 2010 Thumbing is an ongoing Youtube intervention. The option to video comment on a Youtube video is used by the artists group JODI as a tool for performance. By holding up the thumb very close to the webcam for a 2-3 second moment the video-site monopoly gets infiltrated by an endless series of useless ‘pokes’. The performance itself is split into thousands short clips on random Youtube videos. The blurred and flesh colored video bits evoke again harsh reactions from the actual audience on Youtube. Kopyfamo Material: HTML, user content, php, fflickr, Geraldine Juarez (MX) 2009 The project Kopyfamo by Geraldine Juarez offers a web interface to upload images to which then watermarks of well known press agency are added. The initial idea of the watermark to protect and devalue the image by inserting a brand logo is inversed by Juarez’s approach. A lot of water marked pictures of VIPs and famous pop stars can be found at AFP, Getty and Reuters. The watermark in the picture grants importance to the portrait person. By adding a watermark to his/her own picture the user gains instant celebrity status in Juarez’s interactive piece. Web****** (unreleased piece) Material: Firefox addon, javascript Tobias Leingruber (DE) 2010 Tobias Leingruber is well known for the Artzilla-platform (artzilla.org) where he collects and curates artistic Firefox browser addons. Webmarker is his own latest unreleased FF addon creation which turns every web page into a canvas for steet-art like tagging . “Mark the web and anyone can see it!! The Webmarker Firefox Add-on allows you to draw or take notes on any webpage. Activate “Street Mode” and find the drawings of others while browsing the web. The Webmarker FF Add-on is fully integrated into 000000book.com, a service for GML based projects.” Midnight Material: HTML, java, animated gifs Olia Lialina (RU) Dragan Espenschied (DE) 2006 The classic zoom and pan interface from Google maps is turned into a firework of amateur gif animations. The symbolic loaded cross on a black background turns from its calm pixel state into a wild animation of little smileys, flowers and hearts on every single touch by the mouse. The hidden beauty of a world Internet monopoly company’s slide interface. Olia Lialina and Dragan Espenschied are unbeatable experts for the amateur culture of the web since many years. (‘Digital Folklore’ reader recommended) Suicidemachine Material: Embedded screencapture, 720p, 8h of unfriending Moddr [Walter Langelaar (NL), Gordan Savicic (AT), Danja Vasiliev (RU)] 2009-2010 With a very precise super timing Moddr started the webservice Suicide Machine in fall 2009. Facebook has fallen very deep since then and a wide discussion on social networks and privacy is going on currently in the mainstream media. The mix of highly professional appearance and sarcastic video credentials makes the project a sophisticated unmissable statement in the era of privacy violating and direct marketing driven social network monopolies. Fakebook Material: HTML Johannes P Osterhoff (DE) 2010 “People find me in Facebook too easily and many start to use Facebook instead of e-mail. As I do not like this at all and as I do not want to enter the gated community of Facebook everyday, [….] Old acquaintance seem to query my name in Google, find the entry of Facebook and contact me there without checking my website or using the contact possibilities of good ol’ e-mail. So I created a very simple web-page which also shows up in Google search results and looks very similar to the result of Facebook there. I called it Fakebook.” Animated Gif Mashup – Dance Sequence #001 Material: HTML, php, java and loooong URLs Evan Roth 2010 A Customizable gif mashup engine. Pop meets gif meets rap. Evan Roth works represent a highly sophisticated mix of net, open source and pop culture. In his often very minimalistic web based pieces he picks up elements from all these sides. Besides the elaborate visual mix plus music the Dance Sequence #001 unfolds its full beauty in the very long URL which is caused by the simplistic concept of arranging independent animated gifs in a single line of browser adress. superfreedraw Material: HTML, Java Ralph Schulz aka rgb3000 (DE) 2010 Super free draw is a strikingly minimalistic and at the same time socially elaborate collaborative drawing platform. All user can draw on the endless big digital canvas anonymoulsly with a one pixel wide black pen. It is not possible to erase what you have drawn and your creation is not protected for being altered or misused by other users. In a moment of great relief Super Free Draw detaches social web rules and creates a radical almost physical experience of collaboration. You’re Not My Father Material: HTML, embedded video 720×480 px Paul Slocom (US) 2008-2010 “This video project is composed of a sequence of recreations of a 10 second scene from the television show, Full House, overlaid with a set of sound loops from the scene’s original music. The crews who re-shot the scene were recruited through Internet message boards and Craigslist, and each of the original 10 crews were paid $150, using a commission of New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc., for Networked Music Review.

MOAR!!! MAKE PAPER DANCE GIF GLITCHEEESSS (for Jodie Mack, Jon Satrom & Nick Briz) Material: HTML, embedded screen capture video,720×486 px, Jon Cates (US) 2010 MOAR!!! MAKE PAPER DANCE GIF GLITCHEEESSS is the reaction to a Twitter conversation with three friends on a single day. Jon Cates who is well know for his digital punk / raw bytes – style remixed a webpage which was already a reply to a first post by another friend. In the multitude of layers of the contend from his friends animated gifs turn into actual video, color pixel into xerox dirty black and white and the audio results in abstract noise.
Nervous News Material: HTML, iframe Constant Dullaart (NL) 2010 Nervous News is a new unreleased piece from Constant Dullaart’s series of website modifications of major famous websites on the Internet like Google or BBC News. By loading the BBC page through an iframe with its very own quality the page itself appears to become a person with emotional an condition . The moving iframe was already applied in the work “The Internet says no“ or “The Internet says yes“ (user reply) a.o.
Education of the Noobz Material: HTML, mp3,ogg, flac, paypal Dragan Espenschied (DE) 2010 Contemporary Home Computer Music by Dragan Espenschied Dragan Espenschied is well known for his radical and consequent 8-bit music compositions for many years. His new music site Noobz represents a highly differentiated mix of plain HTML, amateur page style, custom music player interfaces and sophisticated code hidden in the upper layers.
Thumbing Material: Youtube video comments JODI (NL/BE) 2010 Thumbing is an ongoing Youtube intervention. The option to video comment on a Youtube video is used by the artists group JODI as a tool for performance. By holding up the thumb very close to the webcam for a 2-3 second moment the video-site monopoly gets infiltrated by an endless series of useless ‘pokes’. The performance itself is split into thousands short clips on random Youtube videos. The blurred and flesh colored video bits evoke again harsh reactions from the actual audience on Youtube.
Kopyfamo Material: HTML, user content, php, fflickr, Geraldine Juarez (MX) 2009 The project Kopyfamo by Geraldine Juarez offers a web interface to upload images to which then watermarks of well known press agency are added. The initial idea of the watermark to protect and devalue the image by inserting a brand logo is inversed by Juarez’s approach. A lot of water marked pictures of VIPs and famous pop stars can be found at AFP, Getty and Reuters. The watermark in the picture grants importance to the portrait person. By adding a watermark to his/her own picture the user gains instant celebrity status in Juarez’s interactive piece.
Webmarker Material: Firefox addon, javascript Tobias Leingruber (DE) 2010 Tobias Leingruber is well known for the Artzilla-platform (artzilla.org) where he collects and curates artistic Firefox browser addons. Webmarker is his own latest unreleased FF addon creation which turns every web page into a canvas for steet-art like tagging . “Mark the web and anyone can see it!! The Webmarker Firefox Add-on allows you to draw or take notes on any webpage. Activate “Street Mode” and find the drawings of others while browsing the web. The Webmarker FF Add-on is fully integrated into 000000book.com, a service for GML based projects.”
Midnight Material: HTML, java, animated gifs Olia Lialina (RU) Dragan Espenschied (DE) 2006 The classic zoom and pan interface from Google maps is turned into a firework of amateur gif animations. The symbolic loaded cross on a black background turns from its calm pixel state into a wild animation of little smileys, flowers and hearts on every single touch by the mouse. The hidden beauty of a world Internet monopoly company’s slide interface. Olia Lialina and Dragan Espenschied are unbeatable experts for the amateur culture of the web since many years. (‘Digital Folklore’ reader recommended)
Suicidemachine Material: Embedded screencapture, 720p Moddr [Walter Langelaar (NL), Gordan Savicic (AT), Danja Vasiliev (RU)] 2009-2010 With a very precise super timing Moddr started the webservice Suicide Machine in fall 2009. Facebook has fallen very deep since then and a wide discussion on social networks and privacy is going on currently in the mainstream media. The mix of highly professional appearance and sarcastic video credentials makes the project a sophisticated unmissable statement in the era of privacy violating and direct marketing driven social network monopolies.
Fakebook Material: HTML Johannes P Osterhoff (DE) 2010 “People find me in Facebook too easily and many start to use Facebook instead of e-mail. As I do not like this at all and as I do not want to enter the gated community of Facebook everyday, [….] Old acquaintance seem to query my name in Google, find the entry of Facebook and contact me there without checking my website or using the contact possibilities of good ol’ e-mail. So I created a very simple web-page which also shows up in Google search results and looks very similar to the result of Facebook there. I called it Fakebook.”
Animated Gif Mashup – Dance Sequence #001 Material: HTML, php, java and loooong URLs Evan Roth 2010 A Customizable gif mashup engine. Pop meets gif meets rap. Evan Roth works represent a highly sophisticated mix of net, open source and pop culture. In his often very minimalistic web based pieces he picks up elements from all these sides. Besides the elaborate visual mix plus music the Dance Sequence #001 unfolds its full beauty in the very long URL which is caused by the simplistic concept of arranging independent animated gifs in a single line of browser adress.
Super Free Draw Material: HTML, Java Ralph Schulz (DE) 2010 Super free draw is a strikingly minimalistic and at the same time socially elaborate collaborative drawing platform. All user can draw on the endless big digital canvas anonymoulsly with a one pixel wide black pen. It is not possible to erase what you have drawn and your creation is not protected for being altered or misused by other users. In a moment of great relief Super Free Draw detaches social web rules and creates a radical almost physical experience of collaboration.
You’re Not My Father Material: HTML, embedded video 720×480 px Paul Slocom (US) 2008-2010 “This video project is composed of a sequence of recreations of a 10 second scene from the television show, Full House, overlaid with a set of sound loops from the scene’s original music. The crews who re-shot the scene were recruited through Internet message boards and Craigslist, and each of the original 10 crews were paid $150, using a commission of New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc., for Networked Music Review. The project included participants from Austin, Cincinnati, Chicago, Dallas, Denton, London, and San Francisco….”

How to set up a SPEED SHOW
http://fffff.at/speed-show-how-to/

The first SPEED SHOW vol.1 : TELE-INTERNET last Friday was a great success! We had many more (and even ‘important’!) visitors than expected.

SPEED SHOW
http://datenform.de/blog/speed-show/
First released on F.A.T. 6th of June 2010 http://fffff.at/speed-show/ The SPEED SHOW exhibition format: Hit an Internet-cafe, rent all computers they have and run a show on them for one night. All art works of the participating artists need to be on-line (not necessarily public) and are shown in a typical browser with standard plug-ins. Performance and life pieces may also use pre-installed communication programs (instant messaging, VOIP, video chat etc). Custom software (except browser add-ons) or off-line files are not permitted. Any creative physical modification to Internet cafe itself is not allowed. The show is public and takes place during normal opening hours of the Internet cafe/shop. All visitors are welcome to join the opening, enjoy the art (and to check their email.) SPEED SHOW manifest by Aram Bartholl 2010
SPEED SHOW vol.1: TELE-INTERNET One night group show and the start of an ongoing series of SPEED SHOWS. Opening! Friday 11th of June 2010, 9:00 – 12:00 PM Kottbusser Damm 103, Berlin (G-maps) Following artists will show new or recent works: - Jon Cates (US) - Constant Dullart (NL) - Dragan Espenschied (DE) - JODI (NL/BE) - Geraldine Juarez (MX) - Tobias Leingruber (DE) - Olia Lialina (RU) - Moddr (NL/AT/RU) - Johannes P Osterhoff (DE) - Evan Roth (US) - Ralph Schulz (DE) - Paul Slocom (US) Curated by Aram Bartholl
Curatorial Statement: net.art is dead! Long live pop.net.art! The Internet browser a key element to the success of the web in the beginning of the 90’s has grown mature in the last two decades. Technical development, open standards and open software made the browser a very powerful tool. It seems soon it will take over the operating system and there will be nothing left than apps in the cloud. It’s about time to revisit net.art in an era of 500 million Facebook user. net.art never really found it’s way out of the media art bubble. The browser was the promising canvas in the early ’90s and is today more then ever capable to do what ever you like. Within the last let’s say 5 years the Internet arrived and became totally mainstream. The social web unfolded it’s power and became part of everyday life of hundreds of millions users. Their massive real time information flow began to have a huge impact on mainstream media and political structures. The potential size of an audience for on-line art work has grown infinitely large. Technical barriers, limited access, little bandwith or lack of skills are not an issue any more. In an era of Internet memes and 20+ million Youtube views on one video in a day artists need to reconsider the web from a different perspective. A new generation of creative minds picked up the field of net.art and expanded it to the next stage: pop.net.art (coined by Aram Bartholl 2010) emerged under the influence of social web monopolies, highly flexible open software, amateur meme cult and pop culture. A wide range of coders, designers and artists including the pop.net.art experts from F.A.T. Lab experiment in this genre with great success. ‘Classic’ net.art is appropriated and gets remixed with web activism, DIY philosyphy, sharing culture, easy to use browser ad-dons and open source beliebers on a state of the art technical level. The first SPEED-SHOW vol.1 represents a wide selection from well known net.artists to a young generation of web savy coders and Internet renegades. From youtube interventions and social web critique to pixel celebration and gif.pop 12 artists (or artist groups) will show recent and new works. net.art never died! It just moved to your local Internet-shop! Come and join the party! Aram Bartholl 2010
