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.”

Re: rhizome got a brand new bag
bassist's name? ;-) heehee
Here's some personal info from my burn-out high school days in
Elyria, Ohio that people can use against me:
I used to sport a black leather jacket worn with a blue jean vest
over it, on the back of the vest was a large cross drawn in black
ball point pen with Black written horizontally and Sabbath written
vertically so they crossed at the 'a'.
The high point of those days was seeing Metallica with their original
bassist Cliff Burton (Master of Puppets tour, they rocked), so I'll
post as Cliff Burton in the alternative Rhizome crazy rock dimension.

I need to assert the rights of the artist in this. As the artist
using a medium it is our right to claim a piece's 'finished' or
'un-finished-ness'.
This same problem came up in regards to the abstract expressionist /
action painters and it was generally agreed that the decision was
left to the individual artist and that it could be made on something
as simple as a whim.
here is an article regarding this very thing:
http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,57922,00.html
the piece described was conceived to be 'finished' at some point.
it's 'finished-ness' is an integral part of what it is. it has become
finished. it has been disappeared from the Web. it is done.
Once again proving that most rules regarding artistic media and how
artists use these media are made to be broken. (to flog a cliche)
as to curt's example above, I don't see his point. is he agreeing or
disagreeing with dyske?
