rhizome free fridays


This may seem kind of trite, but will Rhizome members be aware that
they can encourage their friends who might like Rhizome, or used to be
members (perhaps before January when we instituted the $5 minimum
annual fee), to visit the site on Fridays when it is free and open to
all?

I want to alert/remind people that it's available then.

Thanks, Rachel

> Hi,
>
> Since the last issue of Mutella News, Metamute has featured three new
> Webexclusives.
>
> First up was the second part of our series on (and by) Eyal Weizman,
> on this occasion a review by Kate Rich of a Berlin group exhibition
> which included Weizman's work. (Part three is Weizman's artist's
> project for Mute27, due out in November.) Following on from its
> distinctly silent-whisperish appearance in UK cinemas, Eugene Thacker
> does a depth-reading of the thematic undercurrents of Danny Boyle's
> film, 28 Days Later. And finally, Ian White reviews the ICA's summer
> new media show, Radical Entertainment.
>
> Find them at Metamute.com, and go to the Webexclusive item for more.
>
> In advance of London's new media festival 'DMZ', due at the Limehouse
> Town Hall in mid November, we include a preliminary outline. Look out
> too, for special offers on our no-frills advertising policy, and
> Mute's back catalogue 1994-1999.
>
> All the best, and please keep those news emails for Mutella proper
> coming at: mute@metamute.com. It's in the factory and coming off the
> belt soon.

> Web Exclusives [Update]
>
> WEBEXCLUSIVE // Romancing the Black Box [16.10.03]
>
> Buried away in the summer programme of the ICA, the new media show
> Radical Entertainment represented an ambitious attempt to anthologise
> recent interdisciplinary work focussed on the digital domain. Here,
> Ian White reviews the exhibition and asks whether our idees fixes
> about the new media genre - its levels of ludic subversion, its
> critique of the institution of Art, its interactive nature - aren't
> misnomers in the face of the realities of the white cube. Instead, he
> suggests, we might view these 'black box' works as a revitalisation
> of the legacies of Romanticism
>
> WEBEXCLUSIVE // Body Horror is Back (Because it Never Left) [24.09.03]
>
> By way of fortification against epidemics and bioterrorism, the
> bodies of populations are entrusted to bioinformatic administration.
> The horror of malformity and the perfectionist fascination with
> health provide the pretext for biological control, surveillance and
> management of the body. In this context, does it matter if the 'rage
> virus' epidemic portrayed in the film 28 Days Later is scientifically
> inaccurate? Eugene Thacker draws attention to contemporary mutations
> in the concept and practice of security.
>
> WEBEXCLUSIVE // Making an exhibition [04.09.03]
>
> National outrage can be a trigger for an eloquent art show. With a
> catalogue entitled LAND GRAB, Israeli architects Eyal Weizman and
> Rafi Segal secured the cancellation of their architectural project,
> 'A Civilian Occupation: the Politics of Israeli Architecture', as
> Israel's official entry in the World Congress of Architecture
> (Berlin, 2002). It was banned by the same Israeli Association of
> United Architects who had commissioned it. Here, as one of several
> other participants in the Territories exhibition in which Weizman and
> Segal took part, Kate Rich asks how, and why, their use of aggregated
> data is so devastatingly effective in a contemporary art setting.

> When Mute was a mere sprig of a mag, the experts taught the usual

> and butter, too, are subscriptions. You can *forget* about
> international sales & cash... And UK shelf-sales, pah, they're just
> the lolly for the way home!
>
> In the realm of advertising, we duly created your standard arts-mag
> sales 'model': single, half and quarter pages for sale, at big-bucks
> prices, which only large institutions, publishers and agencies could
> afford...
>
> Now that we've had a lot more time coming out as a magazine, defining
> our editorial and finetuning our format, we continue to see that
> Mute's main readership - individual artists and musicians, freelance
> educators & curators, small galleries, independent publishers and
> record labels, and so on - still cannot show their wares. So, like
> the god-awful banking mantra has it, we've decided to try things out
> 'another way'.
>
> Like other magazines with loyal-but-small readerships made up of
> individuals and small organisations, we are building an area in the
> magazine where people can self-advertise, but at rates that we hope
> make sense.
