BIO

Artists M. River and T. Whid formed MTAA in 1996 and soon after began to explore the internet, video, software and sculpture as mediums for their conceptually-based art. The duo’s exhibition history includes group shows and screenings at The New Museum of Contemporary Art, Postmasters Gallery and Artists Space, all in New York City, and at The Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles. In "New Media Art" (Taschen, 2006), authors Mark Tribe and Reena Jana describe MTAA’s "One Year Performance Video (aka samHsiehUpdate)" as “a deftly transparent demonstration of new media’s ability to manipulate our perceptions of time.” The collaboration has earned grants and awards from Creative Capital, Rhizome.org, Eyebeam, New Radio & Performing Arts, Inc. and The Whitney Museum of American Art.

## TRACEPLACESPACE

New audio by Cary Peppermint, check it out…
+++
TRACEPLACESPACE
seven audio works .mp3 - Cary Peppermint 2007

The audio works of TRACEPLACESPACE were formed loosely in response to ever-accelerating technological developments, passing time, urgent ecological issues, and remarkable events of our globally connected system in process long before but brought to the forefront since the latter part of the year 2001. The works of TRACEPLACESPACE are components of a digital, multi-media, network-infused performance of the same title.
I like to perform this work in small community venues, outdoor gatherings, art-spaces, and galleries where everyone is welcome and can sit on the floor, talk to one another, and drink green tea. However I will perform TRACEPLACESPACE approximately anywhere.

## Filming Outside the Cinema

I have to admit that I'd not given much thought to film outside the cinema, web film or live video, or anything like that, but I've spent lots of time here hanging out with Peter Horvath and I'm impressed.
Peter makes very beautiful films for the web, and you can check them all out online. Today he showed us The Presence of Absence, which was comissioned for the Whitney Museum's Artport in 2003, and then Tenderly Yours from 2005, which "resituates the personal, casual and ambiguous approach of French new wave cinema in a net art narrative that explores love, loss and memory. The story is recited by a striking and illustrious persona, who moves through the city with her lover. Her willful independence is intoxicating, though her sense of self is ambiguous..." Gorgeous.

## Cut Piece - Yoko Ono

Cut Piece (2006, 36.5MB, 9 min)

“Ono had first done the performance in 1964, in Japan,
and again at Carnegie Hall, in New York, in 1965.
Ono sat motionless on the stage after inviting the audience
to come up and cut away her clothing, covering her breasts
at the moment of unbosoming.”

## Conglomco Media Network announces http://meta-cc.net live

Conglomco Media Network is pleased to announce the official beta release of the META[CC] video engine at http://meta-cc.net.

META[CC] seeks to create an open forum for real time discussion, commentary, and cross-refrencing of electronic news and televised media.

## Re: Re: August 14th 2003

hi Jim,
i think you're thinking of the blackout of '77?
I'm not sure why there wasn't much looting this time. There was major
police presence on the streets of Bkyln. There isn't as much crime in
the city as there was in '77 overall. There is the effect of 9/11 too,
I'm sure a lot of people were remembering 9/11 as they walked home
through the city once again.
I walked from 34th/8th ave home to Brooklyn over the Williamsburg
Bridge. My feet were a little sore, but it wasn't so bad. People were
pretty mellow. That night the streets had a crazy feeling to them.
Pitch black night with the only light from auto headlights casting
everything in these crazy angles. The Hungry Marching Band was marching
through the streets of my neighborhood and people were sitting on the
sidewalks outside of the bars drinking beer. It was a festive mood
really. Hot as hell to sleep tho.
But I'm very angry about it. Some heads should roll, this sort of
blackout is completely unacceptable. What idiots designed this system?
Who was testing it? Total bullshit!

## for Safari users

Looks like there has been some interest in Safari discussion here on
Rhiz of late so I thought I might hip everyone to this little thang:
http://haoli.dnsalias.com/Saft/Download/index.html
Full screen Safari (similar to kiosk mode in Win IE I'm imagining)
haven't installed yet, but got the link from zeldman's site so it
can't be a horrid crash monster i'm assuming.

## Re: samorost.swf: Czech flash piece

you need to fix the ski lift.
turn the key, press the button.
i found this interactive narrative to be very engrossing and very entertaining.
i enjoyed this piece tremendously.
it has qualities similar to alice in wonderland or spirited away,
total lyricism. every screen holds a new small, but original,
experience which you need to figure out to help the story move along.
the last engine room screen was really the only dud in the whole
thing.

right. i wasn't really responding to this thread in particular. it's
just this sort of 'feeling' in design discussions online. you'll
always see a post here or there dissing nielson.
on the other hand. he is pretty heavy-handed in his recommendations.
and it's a bit ironic to defend the guy by saying there isn't one
solution to web design as that's what he seems to preach: one
solution.

## Re: re: "The more you say, the more people tune out your message." (Jacob Nielsen)

IMO the anti-nielson currents in the web design world are a bit childish.
he's very clear on what his guidelines are good for.
if you're working on a site similar to Amazon, you might use his guidelines.
if you're working on something like nikelab.com you won't need many of them.
designers need to extract from their clients what they need and what
they want and develop solutions for those needs and wants. if part of
the solution comes from nielson, good. if part of the solution comes
from learning from josh davis flash stuff, that's good too.
there isn't one answer to web design just as there isn't one way to
approach communication via the web.
