Important Announcement!

Tomorrow night, at 9 PM EST, _badpacket_ will be transmitting an
internet streamed performance to the Performance Marks Mini-Festival

with us and our audience members in Regina.

We have provided instructions below on how to access our

Napster Audio and Video: Innovations in the Network

cat.nyu.edu/meaow/glocal3.ram

What are the possibilities for internet based distribution and production
of video and audio?
Napster, Gnutella and their descendant have demonstrated famously the
sheer scale of p2p filesharing systems, and the difficulties of exploiting
this for the benefit of traditional entertainment products under
traditional intellectual property regimes. However, less attention has
been paid to the emerging audio and video products and the new genres of
cultural product that exploit netbased distribution and production. This
panel will survey different experiments and projects in this realm,
specifically, projects that are designed to promote and sustain diverse
cultural resources, generating demonstrable social value.

Panelists:

Christian Nold: is the author of the Author of Mobile Vulgus, a
controversial book about politically activated crowd dynamics. He is
currently at the Royal College of Art where he is developing the Community
Edit system.

Pit Schultz lives and works in Berlin. Currently involved into radio
projects he is the cofounder of bootlab.org, klubradio.de, nettime.org,
mikro.org.

Natalie Jeremijenko is in the Faculty of Engineering, Yale University,
where she runs the Experimental Product Design program(xproduct)--a
program and courses that explore technological innovation for social
progress. She currently has an exhibition at Art in General that
demonstrates several audio and video systems designed for the notforprofit
arts sectors to promote participatory institutional agendas.

Sal Randolph lives in New York and produces independent art projects
involving gift economies and social architectures, including Free Words,
the Free Biennial and Free Manifesta. She has recently been developing new
work in the areas of open source/copyleft music distribution (Opsound) and
political organization (0pcopy).

THE CAT'S MEAOW LECTURE SERIES
www.cat.nyu/meaow

The NYU Center for Advanced Technology (CAT) has
partnered with Creative Time (CT) and Rensselaer's iEAR
Studios to host a series of speakers on 'Media Art or
Whatever' (MeAOW). The CAT's MeAOW is an
Artist/Technology forum that hosts speakers whose work
rethinks technological innovation and demonstrates different
possibilities for the use and promulgation of new
technologies.
The goal of this occasional series is to provide a venue
where
artists can engage technologists to contest the visions of
the
future that are implicitly and explicitly embedded in the
new
technologies rapidly being adapted as the dominant vehicles
of
cultural experience. Hosted by Natalie Jeremijenko and Chris
Csikszentmihalyi

The transition from the industrial to the information society led to major
changes in nearly all spheres of human activity. World-Information.Org
addresses the deep structural transformations that resulted from the
expansion of electronic information and communication technologies and by
way of its exhibition and conference program, as well as its web presence,
disseminating an understanding their cultural, societal and political
implications.

In continuing its series of international presentations,
World-Information.Org started a comprehensive program in Serbia. The
World-Information Exhibition has already been presented, from 22 March to 5
April, 2003, at Novi Sad's Museum of Vojvodina, and from 19 April to 5 May,
2003 will be presented at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgrade.
Through exhibits and visual diagrams, interactive installations and digital
artworks the exhibition will offer visitors up to date information on the
impact of the expansion of worldwide communication and information networks
on various aspects of society and professional and private life of people.

World-Information.Org is an initiative of Public Netbase/t0 and is organized
in cooperation with kuda.org-New Media Center from Novi Sad and Museum of
Contemporary Art Belgrade.

A new security paradigm overshadows the world of technology and
communication. Conflicts are
increasingly affecting the Infosphere. Communication technologies are
becoming carriers for media PR,
while psychological "truth projection" operations are turning into
socio-technical engineering challenges.

Rounding off the exhibition and the conference, World-Information Lounge
happened from 23 March to 5 April, 2003 in Novi Sad's Museum of Voivodina
where presentations and lectures as well as discussions with artists,
activists, professionals and scientist took place. Beginning with the
opening event where Christoph Kummerer (AT) and Belgrade Yard Soundsystem
(SCG) had music performance, World-Information Lounge presented variety of
themes that were discussed, accenting speakers from Serbia and Montenegro.
Some of the subjects and speakers were: Darko Fritz (HR), 010011000110.org
(IT) and Konrad Becker (AT) talked about Artistic Practice in Information
Saturation; Stanislav Svarc (SCG) about Intellectual Property and Software;
Sava Kuzmanovic from Another World is possible (SCG), Andrej Grubacic (SCG)
and Zoran Petakov (SCG) about ICT and New Social Movements; Slobodan
Markovic from Global Internet Policy Initiative (SCG), Voja Rodic (SCG) and
Bogoljub Pjescic (SCG) both from Association of Internet Providers of Serbia
and Montenegro about e-government vs. e-society - Monopoly in Infosphere,
case Serbia; Aleksandar Radic, military analyst about Intelligence Service
in War and Peace; kuda.org (SCG) about Safe Distance video and Max Moswitzer
and Margarete Jahrmann (AT) about Nybble-Engine-Toolz project.

The World-Information Forum on "Total DisInformation Awareness: Conflict,
Control and Freedom of Information" will be held on 20 April, 2003, in
Belgrade and will scrutinize this recent development. The conference will
act as an open and interdisciplinary forum to discuss questions such as:
"How can transparency of the control of information flows and production be
promoted rather than an opaque system of unaccountable information
dominance? How can it be assured that the public interest is represented in
a balanced way?" Speakers will include Mathias Broeckers (DE), Steve Kurtz
(US), Petar Milat (CR), Sjoera Nas (NL), Marko Peljhan (SI) and Gordan
Paunovic (YU).

World-Information Exhibition Program

World-Infostructure visualizes subject matter linked to various aspects of
the information society. It
represents the results of the research program that has been carried out,
related to with World-Information.Org since autumn 1999 and also forms the
base of World-Information.Org's online knowledge database. On 32 information
displays World-Infostructure illustrates issues associated with the
development of digital media, new communication codes and tools, and
sophisticated technical instruments e.g. the increasing use of biometric
devices or the application of data mining for direct marketing purposes. The
findings of World-Infostructure's research activities have also been
published as "Die Politik der Infosphare.
World-Information.Org." by the Center for Civic Education, Bonn, and
Leske+Budrich, Leverkusen.

Command, control, computer and communication (C4) are the keywords for the
visitors' encounter with
current and historic surveillance and control technologies such as
implantable tracking devices and fingerprint scans. Especially in the
aftermath of the events of 11 September, 2001, governments, police and
intelligence agencies have reinforced and extended their surveillance and
eavesdrop systems. Besides displaying some of the technologies, which are
used in this context World-C4U presents arts projects such as [RT-32] -
ACOUSTIC.SPACE.LAB, NEVA Network Analysis (Marko Peljhan) or Safe Distance
(kuda.org) that examine and question these developments.

Future Heritage shows the rich, diverse and vital variety of electronic
culture. It exhibits the works
of well-known and international artists such as 0100101110101101.ORG,
Critical Art Ensemble and Darko Fritz, including artist initiative from
Serbia: Eastwood, Goran Strugar, Vladan Joler, Zoran Todorovic and
Apsolutno, that experiment and operate with new media and present-day
technologies. Their projects build a bridge between traditional artistic
practice and the possibilities that evolved with the diffusion of electronic
networks and digital devices - they represent what will be the cultural
heritage of tomorrow.
