Re: [Yasmin_discussions] networking 5.0

Hello all

In December 2011 a telepresence meeting was organised simultaneously
in Hangar, Barcelona, and Laboral, Gijón, with temporary connections
to Poitiers and Montréal. Using the Scenic software developed by the
SAT in Montréal and a high speed fibreoptic connection we were able to
carry out, for a week, an experiment in working together at distance.
Not only did audio and video data transit through the network but also
multiple sensor data - humidity, light, pressure, on/off.

Intact carried out a performance: http://vimeo.com/37058260

The distributed group was exceptional - Marcel·li Antúnez,
Minipimer.tv, Intact, Alg-a, Jorge Luis Marzo, el pueblo de china,
Paula Pin and many more who had responded to the open call - but there
were moments when communication failed. It was very interesting to
note, once again, the importance of affective bonds that create
effective communication at distance. The large and heterogenous group
spread between two distant points meant that often the attention was
put more in the local than the distant. Often we failed to create a
real sense of being together. It was not so much a technical question
as a human one. Much more work is required to develop the emotional,
organisational and technical skills for collective telepresence to
become truly operative - I believe that this is an area that
institutions, with their access to high speed networks and spaces
equipped for large numbers of people to gather, should be developing
and researching. It will be absolutely critical in the future and a
fundamental function of a cultural centre.

Some weeks later La Quimera Rosa arrived in the lab to work on their
Sexoskeleton, a wearable dispositive that makes visible the vital
signs of the body - heart, galvanic skin response, humidity. This data
can be transmitted by internet to anywhere in the world, like the
sensors in the ecoLAB, another project that began in 2011 in LABoral
(although since I left they seem to be broken). This possibility to
FEEL at distance opens new and astounding possibilities for the
imagination and the connection.

The project that won the Next Things convocatory, a joint project
between the Telefonica research labs and LABoral, Mapocci by Laura
Malinverni and Lilia Villafuerte, also goes in this sense and in the
Bogotrax festival in 2012 Victoria Sinclair and the festival team are
organising telepresence sessions in the district prison in Bogotá,
Colombia. Its a powerful metaphor, opening cracks in the walls of the
prison.

The Mapocci proposal seeks to provide new ways of remote
communication, capable of generating empathic networks between
children in different places, facilitating cultural exchange and
offering a tool for sharing and understanding the emotions of others.
Mapocci is a device based on a wireless connection system which
through a structure of sensors, sound actuators and exchangers allows
for the remote communication of emotional states. The mechanism is a
stand-alone device and does not require a computer in order to operate
but a minimum of two devices connected to each other. Each one belongs
to a child and the physical interactions with a model will be
reflected in the behaviour of the other one and vice versa. In this
way, the non-tangible interconnected links that exist between all
human beings, and the active role played by each one in determining
the sensations and emotions of the other one, are highlighted.

Due to cuts in funding, the LABoral telepresence experience has been
shut down but Hangar in Barcelona is carrying on with the experiments
- if anybody is interested to work on this they should let me know.

In Catalunya there is also the i2cat foundation -
http://www.i2cat.net/ - which is using the academic networks for
cultural experimentations.

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] moderator this week

Dear Monica and everybody else too,

Thanks for reminding me to send out an announcements for the my show, I learn, you learn, he learns ... with the AI collective here in France at Gallerie La Resistance starting next Friday March 2nd, 2012.

The exhibit, I learn, you learn, he learns ... begins March 2, 2012 at Gallerie La Resistance in Lavardin France. The opening of the exhibition in France - as well as the premier performance at 7:30pm UTC+1 by dancer Mariana Carranza in Germany with her robotic dance partner in another AI Lab in Switzerland - will be streamed live. The exhibit is open to the public every day except Mondays and Tuesdays from March 3 to April 1, 2012 from 10am to 6pm. Find out more at the project site http://other-ai.org/

I looked at the two links you sent in your email and although probably it just my Spanish is too rudimentary, I could only find the info about the coming to the event this Friday in the flesh and not the online component. I'm sure an event titled "Our Life Online" isn't unplugged completely from the mother tit of the internet ;)

Again thanks for the reminder. Good luck with your work and enjoy Barcelona. I had a show there in 2001 and it a truly great Art City (just plain great city).

work too hard, think too much, and have way too much fun

BTW, The rest below is just a bit more about the project. If you are as busy as I am - get back to work and ignore it ;) Have fun creating......

About I learn, you learn, he learns ...

On March 2, 2012 a multimedia exhibit, I learn, you learn, he learns ... opens at Gallerie La Resistance to explore this question. The artwork was created by a collective of 876 people worldwide during an online artistic experiment, Intro to Artistic Intelligence. In keeping with its web roots, the exhibit has strong on-line components, including a virtual exhibition, a live streaming performance in multiple cities and an Art Game that downloads to your home computer so that it doesn't end at the gallery.

Inspired by and produced in parallel with Prof. Norvig and Prof. Thrun of Stanford University's famous Intro to Artificial Intelligence class that attracted over 160,000 students worldwide in fall of 2011, the exhibit features work created during the same ten-week period. It ranges from individual drawings to a three meter group artwork. It also launches a project directly rooted in the Stanford AI class called I learn, you learn, he learns...
I learn, you learn, he learns ...is an Evolutionary Art Game. Using a Wii remote, each person dances with an AI agent in a virtual representation of the data created by the AI collective's project. As each person dances with the AI agent, not only will they learn about the project and see a visualization of their own movements, but they will also become teachers themselves because the motion data generated will teach a robot how to dance.

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] networking 5.0

summary
artists-scientists recontextualizing sound: prehistoric signal/sound
imaging analogs to digital; I/O fibre sensors, HD video/XBee wireless
RenW/XBee antennas RF/Arduino ZigBee mesh modules/long-range tests/faster
I/O re Leonardo 5.0 Networking

Being physically incapable of fulfilling the initiative and proposal
advocated here *; however, as catalyst, I'm capable of responding to any
ideas re conceptualizing beyond the basic wireless mesh network and look
toward to expanded link-ups with faster two-way networking potentials.
grass roots Global broadcasts circulating via .edu Universities, Art Sound
Departments and Schools of Sound identifying and seeking student
participation. These personalized school newspaper sound-study ads could
segue artists-scientists.

I'd like to suggest a startup series of conferencing "free" app Skype calls
seeking people personally motivated and would offering their summing
comments, re an exploration beyond the 2012 ubiquitous reaches of emerging
nano technologies; inviting those, who would like to share their
perspectives, concepts regarding sound, following through research devoted
to an ongoing realtime acquisition of analog to digital terrestrial
waveforms, including the sharing of conclusions and the fine tuning of
individual contributions.

Who is leading whom? The lazy susan method acknowledges sequencing for
persons whose updated thinking would, at the present time, be relevant to
all participants re the cross-referenced consensus of fluxed objective
wholes. Weekly free Skype progress conference calls could sustain a
feedback/feedforward and monitoring process.

In particular, the intended focus would require local community
citizen-scientists to contribute synchronized timings individually, and
together, with the analog data collated from the quad-sensing of all audio
and (eventual) video data streams, would have final outputs fed into
mesh+nodes via the basic IEEE 802 or IEEE 802.11s standard. This allows
laptops to ZigBeeRF connect and to share this output with future faster,
expanded global networks. An upgrade provision would eventually phase in
the video aspect added to the sound streams, employing helium balloons and
cameras to relay realtime high resolution imaging to any solar-ready ground
meshnet- and beyond. These could include wave relay meshnet options from
node to node on 5.2 GHz or 5.8 GHz.

[Yasmin_discussions] moderator this week

Dear friends,

I'll be moderating the yasmin list this week,
I am aware that this is one on the most busy months in the arts, so I encourage you to send announcements of the events you are taking part of or comments of those you are attending,

I've just came back from Arco fair in Madrid, I was glad to see some works of the art/science area in the fair environment. Fantastic to hear that the mexican artist Marcela Armas received the Beep Prize with a wonderful piece named Maquina Stella, you can read the article about the prize in Roberta Bosco&Stefano Caldana's new blog (in Spanish):

It was also a great opportunity for me to exhibit and work with the artists awarded in VIDA 13.2, 2011 edition of the Art and Artificial Life International Awards. The three main prizes and an honorary mention were shown at Fundacion Telefonica stand: Naked on Pluto by Marloes de Valk, Aymeric Mansoux and Dave Griffiths, Ocular Revision by Paul Vabouse, Protei by Cesar Harada and all the team of protei developers, and Transducers by Verena Friedrich.

To finish, I would like to invite you to the event "Our Life Online" which will take place next Friday 24th of February at CCCBLab. This is the first collaboration of VIDA with them and an opportunity for the audience to participate in the workshop with Aymeric Mansoux during the morning. Later in the evening we will continue the discussion with a presentation of Jussi Parikka and a debate with Aymeric Mansoux, Pau Waelder and myself is collaborating. Join us if you are around!

Re: [Yasmin_discussions] [Yasmin__discussions] to phd or not to phd

Dear Yasminers,

Just to add onto this interesting conversation with a slightly different
point….in terms or art as a research practice….

An increasing number of artists (both inside and outside of academia)
situate their practice as research through their engagement with scientific
disciplines. How do we understand such research practice and what are its
rules of engagement? What other knowledge paradigm might these practices
address that are institutionally problematic?

To the first question, this remains unclear – however, a period of evidence
gathering and dissemination through exhibitions or papers is the norm. More
problematic is how such practices lay claim to "new knowledge/artwork" with
limited (or, more frequently, zero) referencing of previous works by
practitioners. Stampeding over the "existing" to produce the "new" should
be replaced by more carefully staking out ones position. Why is this an
accepted form of practice within the arts? Does this not lack rigorous
research foundations? Is this a result of art being both an academic and
non-academic practice?

The second question concerns how art is inclusive of problematic ways of
dealing with "new knowledge" in relation to authenticity. Subversive
approaches including narratives, objects and documentation challenges
existing institutional frameworks that must adhere to conventional methods
of relating knowledge with "truth". The final academic point demands
practitioners to acknowledge and thus give up their "game" for sake of
uncluttered knowledge. The place for "subversive research" remains outside
academia and highlights a need to discuss how these two camps of
"knowledge" need a better exchange – if nothing else to understand and
better establish art as a field of knowledge?

Best,
Laura
