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. By combining strategies employed in web-based discussion forums, blogs , tele-text subtitling, on-demand video streaming, and search engines, the open captioning format employed by META[CC] will allow users to gain multiple perspectives and resources engaging current events. The system is adaptable for use with any cable or broadcast television network.

We hope that you will take a moment from your viewing time to add the RSS feed of a blog you find noteworthy. As more information sources are supplied to META[CC], the more intelligent the system becomes. As such, the META[CC] search engine is apolitical and influenced only by the news and information sources supplied by its viewers/users. We apologize, but at this time podcasts and vlogs are not supported.

Many thanks for your interest and participation,
The META[CC] team

## Mac OS X users, what's on your dock?

Hi everyone,
this is kinda dorky, but i'm inspired by this short article at
O'Reilly's mac devcenter:
http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2003/09/30/dock.html
So here is my dock:
http://www.twhid.com/projects/twhid_dock/
That's my work machine; my home dock is a bit different.
Interested in sharing?

## Re: Re: let's repeat:

hola,
thanks for the thoughtful reply. along with Marc's post on this thread
it gives me a much better idea of what folks are thinking along these
lines. Thanks for picking up the challenge and giving us an interesting
view into one net artist's take on the reign of LM. Unfortunately, I'm
not in much shape for a rebuttal this week :-( couple notes below, but
they're lame.

## Re: Re: let's repeat:

with all due respect to Jess (who, IMO, is most worthy of a voluminous
amount of respect), I prompt her to expand upon her somewhat vague
critique of Manovich. Her caveat of 'rant' notwithstanding I think she
could be more precise. My specific questions below interspersed thru
her last post.
I'm no expert in his texts having read only the odd essay published to
Rhiz and his Language of New Media (LoNM) but I don't see this stifling
or 'cartel' effect that Jess 'rants' about.

How does M expound in any way other than thousands of critics before
him? He writes in a persuasive way, but don't all critics? They are
trying to persuade people to agree with their assertions afterall. I
don't see how this de-values his writing or makes it self-serving any
more than all other criticism ever written.

## Re: let's repeat:

I wasn't posting that as a dig at Manovich. It seems to point at the
emptiness of lots of the more design oriented new media stuff. y, it's
cool but you forget it almost as soon as you stop looking at it.
y, it should be obvious, but it seems to be lacking mightily in the
digital/nm scene.
