[Ada_list] On Behalf - National Digital Forum 2014 - Call for Papers due 30th May

The National Digital Forum is a network of people working together to
enhance digital interaction with culture and heritage. Their conference is
on 25-26 November 2014 - at Te Papa, Wellington.

- - -
Call for presentations NDF2014

We're delighted to announce the call out for presenters for the National
Digital Forum 2014 (25–26 November, Museum of New Zealand Te Papa
Tongarewa, Wellington).

The conference will be a mixture of keynote presentations, plenary sessions
and lightning talks. We are also interested in running pre/post conference
workshops, so do get in touch if you have an idea for those.

To get a sense of the National Digital Forum, please take a look at the
line up for past conferences http://www.ndf.org.nz/past-conferences/
What are we looking for this year?

We are keen to hear from practitioners from across the GLAM sector. If you
would like to raise a pressing issue, share an inspiring project, or
discuss opportunities and challenges in the sphere of digital cultural
heritage, we look forward to hearing from you.

We welcome proposals on any topic that's affecting the culture and heritage
sector, but if that's too broad here are a few starters:

- Cross-sector GLAM initiatives – how can we work together better? Where
are the most interesting and useful points of connection?
- Crowd sourcing and gamification – how can our users helpfully
contribute to our work? And what are some smart ideas for managing those
relationships?
- Indigenous knowledge and digital preservation – how do we build and
preserve the memory of a multicultural nation?
- The evolution of libraries as community hubs – what is the future of
libraries? What does major change mean for core users and traditional
services?
- DIY archives – how can we respond as the conventional parameters of
our sector expand? What new platforms does the collective memory inhabit?

The conference is not limited to these topics however, and we encourage you
to submit your abstract even if it falls outside of this framework.

Please feel free to email Conference Convenors, Thomasin and Matthew at
conference@ndf.org.nz if you would like to discuss your proposal prior to
submitting.

Proposals are due *Friday 30 May*.

Submit your proposals via the form on this page

[Ada_list] For : Janine Randerson - Press release - Action and Delay

*Press Release:*

Action and Delay

a symposium and workshop on temporality
in performance and media arts, AUT University, Auckland

day one symposium Friday 30 May-
day two workshop Saturday 31 May 2014

*Keynote addresses: Bruce Barber and Laresa Kosloff,*

*with live performances from Darcell Apelu and a tour by Christina
Houghton.*

Symposium (day one) The AUT Art & Performance Research Group, in
association with the Masters of Performance and Media Arts, is hosting
'Action and Delay' a critically engaging one day symposium followed by a
one day workshop that focuses on AUT's new performance facilities. The
symposium features highly respected media and performance practitioners
including Melbourne-based artist Laresa Kosloff (featured in 'Made Active'
at the AAG, 2012) and New Zealand-born Bruce Barber, a curator, writer and
performer who is well known for his explorations of the radical nature of
performance.

Workshop (day two) For the workshop AUT's performance space and motion
capture facilities will host the experimental workshop 'Mediating
performance systems'. The open workshop includes live performers,
responsive sound platforms and live-streaming to the AUT TV screens.
Researchers include Jennifer Nikolai, Andrew Denton, Greg Bennett, Janine
Randerson, Javier Esteves from AUT and Teresa Connors and Sean Castle
(University of Waikato).

Symposium and Workshop Themes

Live actions and recorded events have multiple modalities in contemporary
performance and media arts practice; live in the sense of 'being there', as
an audience/performer in physical space*, *or,
a mediated understanding of an event and its remote unfolding. This
symposium profiles forays into the unstable binaries of proximity and
remoteness, liveness and delay, the spontaneous and the staged, bodies and
technologies, performance and reenactment, the 'delegated' performance and
'live' installation.

Convened by Greg Bennett, Chris Braddock and Janine Randerson in
conjunction with the Art & Performance Research Group and in association
with the Masters of Performance and Media Arts Degree, School of Art &
Design at AUT .

*The symposium is free but spaces are limited, *

[Ada_list] DAL opening / Cut And Paste by Jenna Gavin / Thursday 15 May 5.30 pm

Digital Art Live invites you to join us for the opening of the new interactive exhibition Cut and Paste by Jenna Gavin

Thursday 15 May from 5.30 to 7 pm

Auckland, Aotea Centre, Level 2

Happy Hours drinks and nibbles provided


Cut and Paste is a refreshing exhibition that mixes play, art and literature. Using the metaphor of a scrapbook, this interactive work invites the audience to select words from New Zealand poems. These words become a trigger for a digital poetry lexicon, creating a brand new poem that will appear on the screen. The underlying message of this artist's work is that new concepts stem from existing ideas and this is the nature of creativity.

At 6 pm, discover more about the work with a short presentation by the artist Jenna Gavin and the curator Nolwenn Lacire. Then in celebration of the Auckland Writers Festival, New Zealand poets Siobhan Harvey and Maris O'Rourke will read a selection of their poems.

More info<http://colab.aut.ac.nz/dal/exhibitions/cut-and-paste/>



The exhibition will then be accessible until Monday 14 July 2014
Monday to Friday 7.30am to 6pm*
*Digital Art Live will remain open late and during weekends if there is a show in the Aotea Centre.

Auckland, Aotea Centre, Level 2
