BIO
Jess Loseby is a digital artist from the UK whose main medium is the internet. Her work ranges from small and intimate online installationsto large scale digital projections and video. In a relatively brief time, her work has become known internationally such as the ‘cyber-kitchen’ (lead artist and co-curator) and ‘the Digital Pocket’ (lead artist and co-curator), which is currently listed in the Whitney Artport. In August 2003, she became the first virtual artist in residence at Furtherfield.org (FurtherStudio) one of the first virtual artists residencies of its kind. She has exhibited in digital festivals such as the Split Film Festival, Pixxelpoint 2003, FILE 2003 and the Stuttgart Filmwinter. In 2003 she created interactive digital sets for the production of ‘The Dadaists’ at The Met Theater in Hollywood. Also in 2003 she was also awarded a grant from the Daniel Langlois Foundation, with the resulting work 'views from the ground floor...' being currently exhibited internationally.

Thematically, her projects continue her fascination with borderlands and ‘beautiful seams’ between the ubiquitous worlds of computing and the ‘real’ (domestic). A staunch opponent of new media's absorption with VR, her on and offline installations create flows and streams in the relational space of art and technology. Loseby’s unashamedly low-tech approach to new media build comparisons of the network and digitally (in its frustrations, attention to triviality and repetition) as absurdly compatible to the female domestic routine.

Jess Loseby has 3 children, 2 wheels, 1 husband and 0 days off.

Digital Pocket Gallery - call for July exhibition


dear rhizomers,
I'd like invite you personally, on behalf of the Digital Pocket Crew, to
submit work for the July exhibition at the Digital Pocket Gallery.
Although some artists on the list have already taken part, I know quite a
few of you have yet to turn out your pockets for us (I know who you
are...:-)) The Digital Pocket Gallery has recently been involved in the
Free Manifesta, featured in [a-n] (British art magazine) and received
positive reviews and publicity on and offline and is basically very cool.
Please see the latest call below for guidelines and submit to:
digitalpockets@ikatun.com
Cheers,
jess.

Call To Artists: Extended Deadline
The curators of the Digital Pocket Gallery have been so pleased with
the amount and the quality of work that has been submitted that we
have decided to extend the deadline for submissions to July 31, 2002.
This will allow us to continue our policy of publishing all pieces and
highlighting a few works each month that we feel are particularly strong
as curators selections

Pockets contain miniature biographies and testaments to our lives and
forgotten stories. The crumpled train ticket speaks of journeys taken,
the handful of confetti in your 'best' jacket of a wedding years before or
the telephone number on the back of a matchbook given by a someone
who's name and face is long forgotten. Files and folders are the 'digital
pockets' of the internet artist. The hard-drive is an autobiography in
coded form. Dreams, ideas and waste lie hidden in these cryptically
labelled pockets that have become the maps and landscapes of our
virtual lives.

We invite you to empty your digital pockets for inspection (whether real
or fictitious) for an online exhibition at
http://www.ikatun.com/digitalpocketgallery/

Submission Guidelines

1. A representation of the structure of your computer file system must
be incorporated in some way, either by screen shot (e.g. Windows
Explorer) or artistic interpretation.

that can be displayed on/transmitted through the web (image to html to
flash to java to etc)
3) playfulness & inventiveness of rule #1 is

4) Work must be pocket-sized - under 50K
5) One entry (pocket) only please

macromedia are bastards


hi,
thanks for all whole let me know that my link to my new work was
buggered. I have just discovered a fantastically stupid bug in Flash
McrapX to do with compression which is why you were getting huge
chunks of black screen but that cunningly doesn't show up on the
computer with the original piece on. This is now fixed. Please accept my
apologies for using a program designed by a load of arseholes.
