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.

## Website Unseen correction

This morning's post regarding MTAA's "Website Unseen"
(http://www.mteww.com/websiteunseen/index2.html) contained a factual
error.
In the list of collectors, Mark Napier is listed as a collector. Mark
Napier is not a collector of MTAA's "Website Unseen" and has never
commissioned work from MTAA.
That's all.

## Website Unseen *special*

x-posting, bah!
please forward, post widely and wildly:
+++++++++++++
WEBSITE UNSEEN OPPORTUNITY RE-OPENED FOR A LIMITED TIME
<http://www.mteww.com/websiteunseen/index2.html>
+++++++++++++
MTAA make a desperate ploy for the net art audience's ATTENTION
+++++++++++++
WILL THESE SENSATIONALIST TACTICS WORK?
We sure hope so.
+++++++++++++
BACKGROUND
+++++++++++++
On August 16, 1999 MTAA (M.River & T.Whid Art Associates) launched
their online project "Website Unseen"
<http://www.mteww.com/websiteunseen/index2.html>. The project offered
one hundred titles for art web sites that MTAA promised to build for
$US 100.00 per website. On August 06, 2001, after 15 commissions
resulting from the original "Website Unseen" opportunity, MTAA
withdrew the offer. Since the close, one new site has been
commissioned by special agreement. This brings the total number of
completed "Website Unseen" commissions to sixteen.
To celebrate the Fourth Anniversary of "Website Unseen," MTAA is
offering one more project for sale under the "classic offer", that
is, it'll only cost you one hundred bucks.
+++++++++++++
WHAT DOES A WEBSITE UNSEEN LOOK LIKE?
+++++++++++++
See all the completed commissions linked from the "Title List"
<http://www.mteww.com/websiteunseen/list100.html>. When you
commission a "Website Unseen" you get all the files comprising the
artwork on CD-ROM with a signed certificate of authenticity and a
"collector's page". All links to your project go through the
"collector's page" which lists your name, date of commission and
other details concerning your "Website Unseen".
+++++++++++++
CONTACT MTAA TO PARTICIPATE
+++++++++++++
Contact MTAA at mriver@mteww.com or twhid@mteww.com and tell us in
which title you're interested. Consult the "Website Unseen Title
List" <http://www.mteww.com/websiteunseen/list100.html> to pick your
title. When you contact MTAA please provide:
1. Your full name
2. The Website Unseen Title you would like to commission
3. An email address
4. A physical address
MTAA will complete only one title under this new offer. How will we
decide who to choose from the overwhelming response we're
anticipating? We won't divulge the process but each petition will be
sufficiently vetted, you have our assurance.
+++++++++++++
WHY MTAA?
+++++++++++++
Other people and institutions who have commissioned work from MTAA:
The Whitney Museum of American Art
The Alternative Museum
Mark Napier, artist
Yael Kanarek, artist
Doran Golan, artist and collector, computerfinearts.com
Mark Tribe, creator of Rhizome.org
Carol Stakenas, Creative Time Deputy Director & Curator
Rheinhold Grether, the legendary toy.WARRIOR

and
http://www.bard.edu/ccs/projects/protocol/mtaa2.html
+++++++++++++
We'll contact our new patron before June 15th and launch the title on
August 16, 2003, the Four Year Anniversary.
