I don't know what/if I'll get much up here, but it might be worth a try.

If people want to ask questions about specific installations/events, I
might try to cover them.
I am going to Wetware Hackers on Tuesday...

Subject: ISEA by proxy?
Hi all,
For those of us not lucky enough to travel to ISEA / ZeroOne San Jose,
is anyone planning on keeping a blog? Or perhaps posting impressions of
shows / performances / social encounters to any of the lists?
I know that Adam's re:mote (see below) will give far flung new
mediaphiles a chance to input into the festival in some way, but I would
personally love to read people's stories about the festival as it
unfolds.
Does anyone have any plans to send / post / blog updates?
For those of you who are going, do try and catch the North American
premiere of the 'datamatics' performance by Ryoji Ikeda. The piece has
been performed at the AV Festival and Tate Modern in the UK and at Sonar
in Spain, but never outside Europe. Though I am am somewhat biased (the
AV Festival co-commissioned the work), I can thoroughly recommend
experiencing it.
Best wishes
Honor Harger

ISEA2006 re:mote, August 10-12, 2006
International new media art discourse is stimulated by festivals and
events like ISEA2006 which form temporary cultural centers to represent,
present and discuss networked and digital technologies. However by
forming
temporary centers we also tacitly create a notion of a periphery - with
temporary centers also come temporary peripheries. In new media culture
this is a paradox as much new media art, theory, and discourse reflects
on
the network itself and the elusiveness and redundancy of centers and
peripheries.
ISEA2006 re:mote attempts to dissuade us from imposing these
distinctions
by providing a platform for artists, commentators, curators, performers
and theorists to participate in ISEA 2006 via online and pre-recorded
media.
ISEA2006 will feature four themes: Interactive City, Community Domain,
Transvergence, and Pacific Rim. Please see the following links for
further
information on each on the themes:
ISEA2006 re:mote is a collaboration between ISEA2006 ( http://01sj.org/
)
and Adam Hyde ( http://www.xs4all.nl/~adam ) and is based on the re:mote
series of events:
re:mote auckland - organised by r a d i o q u a l i a and ((ethermap
http://www.remote.org.nz/
re:mote regina - organised by r a d i o q u a l i a and soil media lab
http://soilmedia.org/remote/
