before breakfast we talked about the furthest visible point before it all disappeared examines the construct of objects that are informed by a relation to space, time and materiality. According to Bruno Latour, objects exist in the axis of their networks and bring with them a sense of connectedness, or an expanded anamnesis triggered by their ambiguous qualities.

[Ada_list] Performance Ethics Working Group Podcasts

Hi, I'd like to share with ADA the recently completed Performance
Ethics Working Group Podcasts. Enjoy listening.

The Performance Ethics Working Group has been talking to people about
ethics and performance for the last two years and now we've gone
public with the results in a series of podcasts that look at what
ethics has to do with performance. Investigating the legacy of
transgressive performance art, the ethics of working with communities,
traditional knowledges and audiences, not to mention the ethics of how
performers are treated and paid the podcasts address some of the most
complex issues confronting contemporary theatre, dance and visual arts
practitioners today.

Drawing from their direct experiences of making, commissioning and
viewing performance work, the participants discuss these complex
questions using concrete examples, exposing their failures to secure
the wellbeing of audiences, communities and performers alongside their
successes.

There are nine podcasts in total bringing together the voices of 23
different creators, directors, curators, producers, and researchers
including: Hadleigh Averill, Stephen Bain, Sally Barnett, Chris
Braddock, Carol Brown, Craig Cooper, David Cross, Sean Curham, Alison
East, Murray Edmond, Brent Harris, Mark Harvey, Mark Jackson, Alys
Longley, Rose Martin, Sally J Morgan, Moana Nepia, Tru Paraha, Val
Smith, Louise Tu'u, Kalisolaite 'Uhila, Alexa Wilson, and Becca Wood.

Listen via the University Without Conditions website:
universitywithoutconditions.ac.nz/?page_id=201
Subscribe on itunes:
https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/performance-ethics-working/id846935903

Episodes include:

Episode 1: What is ethics? (launched at the Festival of Uncertainty,
23 March 2014)
This first podcast introduces the idea of ethics as a daily practice
and philosophical enquiry, exploring what we think the broad concept
of ethics covers.

Episode 2: How we treat our audiences (published April 8, 2014)
The second podcast asks what responsibilities performers and producers
have towards their audiences and talks about how these can conflict
with the conceptual integrity of the work. We raise the question of
how we determine what is offensive and who gets to decide that.

Episode 3: Reviewing performance art and ethics historically
(published April 11, 2014)
During the interviews a number of historical examples from performance
art were reviewed such as Marina Abramovic's Rhythm 0 (1974), along
John Duncan's Blind Date (1980), along more contemporary works like
Pania Lincoln and Hadleigh Averill's Lunchtime Scrabble (1996), in
which a shooting was too effectively simulated and Mike Parr's Kingdom
Come and/or Punch Holes In The Body Politic (2005) at Sydney Artspace.
All of these works have challenged the performers and the audience to
identify what their limits are, and when they will say stop.

Episode 4: The ethics of community engagement (published April 16, 2014)
The fourth episode explores the issues which research in and with
communities brings up. Consent, collaboration, going undercover and
the imbalances of power between the artist and community are all
talked about while we investigate how community arts projects and
relational aesthetics projects can be ethically approached

Episode 5: Ethics of working with traditional and indigenous
knowledges (published April 24, 2014)
Recognising that the performing arts in Aotearoa New Zealand are
structured and understood through dominantly western paradigms the
fifth podcast examines the complexities of decolonising performance
exploring the strategies we can employ to work intelligently work
across cultures.

Episode 6: How we manage the ethics of money (Published April 30, 2014)
Episode six turns to the vexed question of money in the economically
marginal field of performance. Discussing neoliberalism and cultures
of exploitation, internships, alternative economies, unequal financial
distribution and the decommodification of art the participants speak
frankly of the ways they have approached the issue of equitable
sharing funds and enabling work to be created.

Episode 7: Working relationships within the performance community
(Published May 8, 2014)
The seventh podcast deals with ethical labour relationships between
performers and institutions, festivals, curators, directors and
choreographers. It addresses the issue of protecting of the performer
from real physical risks as well as ensuring they have the
psychological resilience necessary to make specific works before
moving into the history of poor treatment and sometimes outright abuse
of performers in the field of dance.

Episode 8: The University ethics process (Published May 22, 2014)
The eighth episode turns to the University, an institution which has
long addressed the issue of applied ethics in research. However,
these processes were initially developed for medical, sociological and
anthropological research. Drawing from the participants experiences at
Universities across New Zealand, Australia and the UK this podcast
explores the positive benefits and negative effects of submitting work
in development to the ethics committee.

Episode 9: Authorship in collaboration (Published May 28, 2014)
This bonus episode focusses on how we handle authorship in
collaborative processes. It brings together the participants thoughts
on the topic from debunking the myth of solo authorship and
recognising the positivity of influence, to adequate programme credits
and audience or community participation.

The Performance Ethics Working Group is research cluster in the
University Without Conditions, a free university and self-organising
collective, without ties to Government or corporations. We exist not
to produce 'degrees for jobs', but to enable a human being to improve
themselves and the society in which they exist.

[Ada_list] CSAA Conference at UOW

Hello all,

It would be great to see some ADA faces at this event later this year:

This year's Cultural Studies Association of Australasia conference, which will be hosted by the University of Wollongong.

CfP Due Date: 13th June, 2014.

For further details: lha.uow.edu.au/hsi/csaa2014
Cultural Studies Association of Australasia Conference 2014
3 - 5 December 2014
University of Wollongong
Conference Theme: Provocations
Keynote Speakers: Professor Joseph Pugliese, Associate Professor Katina Michael, Dr Kath Albury, and Profs. Erin Manning and Brian Massumi
The 2014 Cultural Studies Association of Australasia (CSAA) conference theme 'provocations' calls for papers that pursue various forms of action, change, or questioning. Such critical responses might be in reaction to global social transformations or the local minutiae of everyday life, and might be incited by creative practice, cultural analysis or imaginings of a more ethical present. Provocations might be understood to operate at the macro level in terms of politics, governance and law or at the scale of individual bodies, artistic endeavours and engagements with new technologies and social networks.

In anticipation of exploring these ideas, the conference is organised around six thematic streams and each stream will have an individual call for papers:

· Catastrophe

· Secrets

· Flesh

· Harm

· Exposure

· Activism

Committee: Dr Lisa Slater, Dr Nadine Ehlers, Professor Mark McLelland, Professor Sue Turnbull, Dr Ruth Walker, Dr Nicky Evans

[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 .

[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.

[Ada_list] Conference: Born Digital and Cultural Heritage

Apologies for x-postings.


The International Born Digital and Cultural Heritage conference will be held on 19-20 June, 2014, at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image. The event is one of the outcomes of the 'Play It Again' project, which is focused on 1980s Australian and New Zealand game history and preservation. It is a collaboration between Flinders University, University of Melbourne, Victoria University of Wellington (NZ), the Australian Centre for the Moving Image, the New Zealand Film Archive, and the Berlin Computerspiele Museum.

The program features an exciting line-up of papers from scholars, artists, and practitioners from Finland, U.S., U.K., Germany, Poland, Japan, Samoa, New Zealand and Australia on topics from: demoscene history to manuscripts, archiving tweets to the 'right to be forgotten', Japanese game preservation efforts to artist's apps, and much much more.

Our two keynote speakers -- Dr Henry Lowood (Stanford, U.S.), and Dr Anne Laforet (ESADS, France) - are experts in digital game and net art preservation, respectively.

All the program details, plus abstracts and speaker's bios are on the conference website: http://playitagainproject.org/conference

[Ada_list] Free seminar to discuss interactive art and science communication / Auckland 29 April

We invite you to join us for a seminar to discuss interactive art and
science communication in relation to the interactive exhibition Spectrum.

Tuesday 29 April, 2 to 4 pm
AUT university, Sir Paul Reeve building, lvl 4 , room WG404
Free with afternoon tea provided after the seminar


Colab and School of Computer and Mathematical Sciences (Auckland University
of Technology) invited the artists of the collective Unguarded Intersection
to work with the PhD students Shuaib Memon and Akbar Hossain whose focussed
on emergency Wi-Fi and cognitive radio. At first, this seemed an unlikely
partnership; however Unguarded Intersection were surprised by the visual
similarities between popular social games and technical depictions of radio
frequency spectrums.

This unusual collaboration between scientists and artists was the starting
point of the interactive exhibition Spectrum. It utilizes aspects of
gaming, popular culture and mobile storytelling to draw the audience into
the unseen world of digital communications and networks.

The seminar will discuss the challenge of science communication and will
use the project Spectrum as a case study. The artists from Unguarded
Intersection Fiona Milburn and Mark Shafer, the PhD students Shuaib Memon
and Akbar Hossain, Colab co-director Frances Joseph, the leader of the
network research group Associate Professor Nurul Sarkar and Digital Art
Live curator Nolwenn Hugain-Lacire will discuss this experience. Professor
Shaun Hendy from Auckland University department of Physics will expand on
this discussion. The programme will be chaired by Colab co-director
Associate professor Charles Walker.

Please RSVP to nolwennh@the-edge.co.nz by 22 April

The Spectrum exhibition is free and accessible at Aotea Centre, level 2,
weekdays from 7.30 am to 6 pm (open late and during weekends if there is a
show in the Aotea Centre).
