Re: [Ada_list] INVITATION to the Symposium on 22/23March 2012 ­ World Water Day

Hi,

At 10.45pm NZ time tomorrow night 22nd March I will be presenting (from Taranaki) at the Waterwheel symposium in Tunisia on World Water Day. The presentation is involves discussing the cultural bridge established with WITT's Ahorangi Dr Te Huirangi Waikerepuru.

A bridge between Maori knowledge and Western science and ideology was created for the project Te Kore Rongo Hungaora Uncontainable Second Nature shown in Istanbul and Rio (the latter a smaller version) last year. The bridging of ideologies across cultural boundaries can be seen widely in Aotearoa, in particular with the Department of Conservation, NIWA (National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research) and Geological and Nuclear Sciences (GNS).

There is worldwide interest in working across cultures and this is a major platform for all Intercreate Research Centre projects including SCANZ 2013: 3rd nature, January 19-February 4 2013. It is hoped that the symposium will address this subject directly, and result in knowledge and resources that can be spread.

Cultural bridging requires an important psychological step, particularly on the part of those in the Western framework of culture and knowledge. To find out what this is, please check out the presentation.

I would also be interested in any discussion about the points above.

Best

Ian Clothier

[Ada_list] Call for Proposals - CyPosium - cyberformance or live perfromance online symposium

greetings all

Invitation for proposals for the first Cyberformance Symposium [CyPosium], organised by UpStage.


Since the early 1990s, there has been a growing body of live performance that is situated online. These events differ enormously in form and content, are described with multiple terms (such as cyberformance, remote performance, internet theatre, screen stage, computer-mediated performance), are staged in a variety of online environments (such as text-based and graphical chat rooms, sound broadcast, real time choreography for screen, virtual worlds, games and purpose-built or existing platforms as for instance facebook) and engage diverse audiences. The net, however, is forgetful: it loses the memory of those events, and of the people who lived them, of the environments and communities who hosted them.

On 12 October 2012, a symposium will be organized by UpStage, where cyberformers will discuss their online performances with other artists, researchers and interested participants. Questions we would like to tackle in CyPosium include: What different kind of events happened? What did they make possible? What was special about the event? Why were things done in a certain way and what were the results?

We invite proposals for presentations about past online performances. Presentations will be programmed into 30 minute timeslots, should be no longer than 20 minutes in duration (10 minutes will be scheduled for questions) and can be done in the Upstage platform (or in another platform if you wish). Presentations could involve webcasting, showing archives, talks, etc. A public chat will be available for interaction between the artists and audience. There will be facilitated discussions between programmes of presentations, to enable general discussion around common themes. Everything will be recorded for archival and documentation purposes.

If you are interested, please submit:
- a short bio;
- a short abstract of your presentation (not more than one page) including the platform you wish to use and any relevant information;
- one image that represents this past work;
- contact email and postal address.

Proposals must be emailed to cyposium@upstage.org.nz by 15 of June 2012.
You will receive news of the CyPosium acceptance by the end of July and the CyPosium schedule will be announced in September.

Please note that technical and general support will be provided for presentations in the UpStage platform; if you wish to use a different platform, you will need to provide your own support.
