[Ada_list] Celebrating Peace - call for works on Water and Peace

Celebrating International Peace Day with a call for projects on Water and Peace

SCANZ2015: Water*peace

Water is essential to survival, revered and respected worldwide for its power, curative and creative abilities. Water as a resource has become intensely politicised and monetised, in contrast to the view that access to fresh water is a fundamental human right. Peace is also essential to the sustainability of humans on Earth. Join us to discuss and put forward positive, connecting views on water and peace that engages our community. This is the first call for projects and residency with submissions due November 8, 2013.

Full details at: http://www.intercreate.org/2013/09/water-peace-call/

Noho marae
SCANZ2015: water*peace will be the fifth SCANZ residency and starts in January 2015. It will commence with noho marae (overnight stay) at Parihaka, world renowned as a site of peaceful protest. The stay coincides with the 18th and 19th, when Te Whiti and Tohu leaders of the peace movement are celebrated.


Open residency
This will be followed by a two week open, creative and interdisciplinary residency. It is our hope that tangata whenua, indigenous peoples, New Zealanders and other global citizens will be able to take part.

We are suggesting that artists, environmentalists, technologists, scientists, writers, performers, dancers, permaculturalists and people interested in the positive aspects of water and peace, all take part. Anyone can submit a project in one or more of the categories listed further down this page.


Temporary works in public space
We would like to have five to seven temporary works in public space, shown for one day or overnight on the final weekend of the residency. These will be sited along a river walkway. No power will be provided at the sites, so solar, wind, and water powered projects are suitable (battery and static install are two further options).


Day of public activities about water, water quality and peace
We are seeking proposals for a day of activities that engage our local community in issues around water and peace.


Night time building projections
We are seeking projection works about water or peace, to be projected on to the side of a local building in the evening.


Online exhibition
Links to water and peace resources online will be collated. Included will be a curated selection of online projects about water and/or peace.


SCANZ hui
On the final weekend of the residency there will be a SCANZ hui. Day one is at WITT, the local polytechnic and allows for presentations that require technology, the internet, projectors etc. Day two is a walking symposium to view the artworks and have thematic discussions in the environment of the river walkways.


Categories of projects
Water and/or Peace residency and temporary public work (residency with public exhibition project)
Water and/or Peace residency (residency without an exhibited project)
Water and/or Peace temporary public work (no residency, public exhibition project)
Public activity day project
Night time projection on building
Online exhibition
Pure research

The application process can be found at http://www.intercreate.org/2013/09/water-peace-call/

Applications due 8 November 2013.

A separate call for hui/symposium presentations and a second call for projects will be made at a later date.

Re: [Ada_list] ADA AGM 2013 - new trustees needed!

Kia ora koutou Su, Stella, Zita, Julian, Ana, Vicki and all ADA members
pls accept my apologies for today and send love to Dunedin - thanks for the work of the Otago crew in hosting the symposium.
Thank you Su and Stella for your shepherding of ADA these past years.
I'm at a Loomio retreat on the kapiti coast and sense very strongly that the digital arena is becoming increasingly complex and loaded and the work of ADA in maintaining critical debate is still vital.
Go well this weekend

Re: [Ada_list] ADA AGM 2013 - new trustees needed!

Dear ADA,

Some more information about the announcement of the ADA AGM to be held at the Dunedin Symposium.

ADA is a charitable trust with a small trust board (6 people), and everyone who is subscribed to this list is a "member" of ADA (currently about 300 people). The structure of ADA means that members can tell the trust what to do, instigate projects under the name of ADA, guide the direction of ADA, and apply to join the trust board. The time has come for some new energy to enter the trust board - and this means YOU!

As you all know ADA has been run by a hardworking trust board since 2008. The current trustees are: Su Ballard, Zita Joyce, Stella Brennan (elected 2008), Julian Priest (elected 2009), Ana Terry (elected 2010), Vicki Smith (elected 2011).

Stella and I have tendered our resignations, to take effect at the AGM on Sunday 2pm (NZ time).

We hope that this means that ADA can enter a new dynamic phase, and we really hope that some of you will put your hands up to participate in steering the good ship ADA.

You do not have to be in Dunedin to participate (you do not even have to be in New Zealand.) ADA is a distributed board that makes full use of the networks it was founded on. If you have questions, or want to be more involved but maybe not on the trust, please make sure you talk with Vicki or Zita over the weekend (before the Sunday meeting), or drop them a line!

All the best,
Su

Re: [Ada_list] Ada_list Digest, Vol 126, Issue 2

Tena Koe,

Please accept my apologies, I'm sorry to say I can't make the AGM in
Dunedin this year as I have a Paemanu, Ngai Tahu Artist Trust to attend
and I am the Treasurer for that and need to make my report. This is
Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th.

Maybe next year I can travel north for the next.

Nga Mihi
Nathan

Hi,

Really pleased to announce the following (on the Intercreate site page
there is a developed artist statement about the project):


Laser Karakia Artwork Selected as Media Art Project

A project that utilises laser light technology to carry sound has been
selected as the Intercreate Media Art Project 2014. Ko Tatou Te Tangata
by Stuart Foster and Kura Puke, with Dr Te Huirangi Waikerepuru and Te
Urutahi Waikerepuru, will employ oscillating lights to carry both the
human voice and environmental sounds.

The technology was tested at SCANZ, an artist residency held at WITT in
New Plymouth earlier this year. Laser beams were sent to a light
receptive panel that had speakers connected. The result was that waiata,
karakia, karanga and sounds of moving water were transmitted. For the
SCANZ project, the karakia was contributed by kaumatua Dr Te Huirangi
Waikerepuru with the tangata whenua, Ngati Tawhirikura.

Kura Puke (Tapuke) has whakapapa to the hapu of Katere ki Te Moana
marae, which extends from the clifftop at Fitzroy, to Te Rewa Rewa Pa on
the coastal walkway. Both Puke and Foster are lecturers at Massey
University Wellington, while Te Huirangi Waikerepuru and Te Urutahi
Waikerepuru direct Te Matahiapo Research Organization based in New
Plymouth.

For the Media Art Project they wish to deepen the engagement with
tangata whenua and locals, and investigate how to ?transform an
environment often seemingly subsumed by commercial industry into an
awareness of the dynamic layered diversity of the land? which involves
embracing ?the intangible and the unseen energies? to inquire into and
visualise ideas about, wairua (essence), mauri and the virtual.

As the commissioner of the work funded by the Arts Council of New
Zealand Intercreate is extremely pleased with the calibre of the
project, and the way advanced technology is integrated with the local
environment, local community groups and customary Maori knowledge.

Altmusic is thrilled to announce Laurel Halo (US) touring New Zealand
throughout September in 2013!

Higher harmonic energy is the keystone of Laurel Halo's music, which
challenges the boundaries between techno, ambient, pop concrete, dub and
synthetic psychedelia. Fixed stylistic territories fold in on
themselves, time quickens - it's music for transit and body listening.
Halo's live set has electrified dance clubs, DIY venues, festivals and
museums both in the States and Europe.

In the live context Halo's music becomes heavy, looming and dancefloor
driven. A hugely acclaimed artist in the world of electronic music,
Laurel Halo's debut album Quarantine (Hyperdub) was named the Wire
magazine's #1 album of the year for 2012. Halo's recently hailed Behind
The Green Door EP explores the sexually charged common ground between
abstract electronics and club-driven beats.

"She's a sharp, and sometimes tantalizing performer who knows how to
deploy wobble, drone and nervous energy in refreshing fashion." - New
York Times

?Quarantine feels like something new flickering into being, some strange
new cyborg in the process of being birthed: a frankenstein of pop,
noise, ambient, industrial, and a ?hypnagogic? continuum that takes in
the likes of Oneohtrix Point Never, Actress, Dean Blunt, and Inga
Copeland, the new New Age and Not Not Fun? - Tiny Mix Tapes

?There are plenty of disarmingly pretty moments ... on Quarantine, yet
even those strive for unsettling effect, finding beauty in uncertainty,
confidence in the embrace of the unknown.? - Pitchfork

This will be a unforgettable performance by an electronic dance artist
at the height of her powers - don't miss out!

[Ada_list] Conf CFP: Born Digital and Cultural Heritage

Apologies for cross postings. Please distribute widely.

CFP: The Born Digital and Cultural Heritage, 19-20 June, 2014, Melbourne

Whilst many artefacts today are produced, distributed and consumed solely in digital form, this situation is not completely new. Artefacts from previous eras have also been 'born' digital. The advent of micro- or home computers in the mid-1970s and 80s, for instance, saw a range of digital artefacts produced, amongst them digital games, demos, and other early software. These objects are complex and interesting as are the preservation challenges they pose. To issues of hardware and software deterioration are added characteristics such as real-time responsiveness, highly-invested fan communities, and the earliness with which decisions about significance and preservation strategies must be arrived at. Games preservation is emerging as an experimental domain where some of the thorniest issues in born digital cultural heritage are confronted. No longer a niche endeavour limited to those who played titles 'back in the day', developments in games preservation and related field
s are of relevance to many different cultural forms, their scholars and custodians. Playability also creates interest in and enlivens the preservation message, making it easier for non-specialists to grasp.

We invite proposals for papers, panels, and workshops for an international conference on The Born Digital and Cultural Heritage, to be held at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image in Melbourne, 19-20 June, 2014. Recognising that born digital artefacts often require multiple sets of expertise, we are keen to receive proposals from researchers and practitioners in the range of disciplines, spheres of practice and institutional contexts concerned with born digital heritage. This includes libraries, archives, museums, galleries, moving image institutions, software repositories, universities, and more besides. Proposals might be theoretical, practical, policy, or otherwise oriented. Case studies of innovative practices, papers based on research with born digital artefacts, and new institutional approaches are equally welcome.

Possible topics include:
* Born digital histories
* Born digital items as cultural heritage
* Changing notions of the collection
* Vernacular digitality
* Selection, appraisal, deposit
* Jurisdictions, overlaps, gaps
* Resourcing, funding, partnerships
* Archiving of media arts, architecture, broadcasting, etc
* Relation of born digital preservation to digitisation programs
* Inter-agency cooperation, federations and networks
* Models of collaboration, outside experts, volunteers
* Access and exhibition
* Legal issues, intellectual property, orphaned works, legal deposit
* Workforce, capacity building, training
* New preservation and conservation techniques
* Case Studies and Best Practices: Processes, Metadata, Systems,
Services, Infrastructures

We hope you will join us to engage with research and practice in those fields which underpin such critically important matters as the accessibility of born digital cultural heritage, now and into the future.

This conference is organised by the Play It Again team, a games history and preservation research project focused on microcomputer games created in 1980s Australia and New Zealand. Play It Again is a multidisciplinary project involving scholars from Humanities, Computer Science, and Law from several Australian and New Zealand universities, working collaboratively with cultural heritage professionals at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image, the New Zealand Film Archive, and the Berlin Computerspiele Museum. Play It Again received 3 year project funding (2012-14) under the Australian Research Council's Linkage Projects scheme.

There will be a separate cultural sector workshop on the 18th June at Melbourne University, at which the Play It Again team will be sharing some of the learning from the project.

To propose a paper, please send an abstract of 300 words, plus keywords and references, and a brief author biography to playitagain@flinders.edu.au Abstracts are due 15 November, 2013.
