STRP Festival - ART LOVES TECHNOLOGY!
STRP Festival – 24/25/26 March 2006 – Strijp-S Eindhoven
ART LOVES TECHNOLOGY!
STRP, a brand new festival in an incredible space. The first edition of the STRP Festival will take place from the 24th till the 26th of March 2006 in the former industrial area of Philips; Strijp-S. Numerous technological innovations took place at Strijp-S in the 20th century. For example, think of cassettes and CDs.
STRP is an unique festival at the intersection of art, technology and popular culture, bringing in elements from all art disciplines. Robots alongside DJ’s, lectures alongside interactive installations, cinema live shows. STRP uses these powerful aspects of art and technology to draw content into an approachable multidisciplinary pop festival.
All this during three days from early in the afternoon till late at night. STRP has formulated four themes for the festival that will shape the relationship between popular culture, art and technology into a provocative whole. Each theme is looked at from different angles and disciplines. Existing works will be shown as well as works conceived especially for the festival.
Nu-Live new forms of live electronic music performance where the special attention
is paid to the performative aspect. One of the important program components in this theme is Live Cinema: a new way to present live image and sound within one performance.
Press "Start" gaming, interactive installations and playful art works, in which the public can take an active role in the experience and realization of the work.
WE ARE THE ROBOTS focusing on a number of internationally renowned artists who work in the field of robotics.
RE - or 'the inheritance' using the rich history of this area as a starting point for artistic experiences.
STRP is based in the technological area of Eindhoven. Strijp-S, the characteristic industrial inheritance from Philips, forms the cradle of this region. On this spot revolutionary inventions which have had an enormous impact on several art forms, were realized. Electronic music composer Dick Raaijmakers completed the first electronic music album almost 50 years ago at Strijp-S. His work will be remixed by renown contemporary musicians from different scenes. The result of it is brought out on cd before the festival.
The important “Klokgebouw” (Clock building), with its impressive past and industrial irradiation, on Strijp-S forms the perfect setting for the festival. In four enormous halls you find a wonderful mix of state of the art robots, interactive installations, cutting edge video clips, refreshing live cinema, multimedia theatre, film premieres, thorough presentations, international top dj’s and live acts and many others.

It is not hard for Mr Berlusconi to do so: his company, Mediaset, owns three TV stations - Canale Cinque, Italia Uno and Rette Quattro.

Thinktank Concept
The Thinktank is a proposal for a groupware, an online collaborative environment, which offers practitioners from the artistic, social and political field online spaces for group-work.
During its research phase the Thinktank invites artists, architects, designers, people from the social and cultural practice to think and envision with us what this working environment should look like. During talks in Public Space With A Roof during February 2006, on this website and in talks and conversations in Berlin we are trying to formulate a conceptual design, which will later on be realized as a groupware solution for free on the web.
The Thinktank aims at the following:
1. Supporting non-commercial initiatives technically and structurally by bringing them in virtual proximity with like-minded initiatives to exchange methods, skills, resources and knowledge, create visibility and connect to an exchange network
2. Offering them autonomously and individually adjustable (virtual) working environments, which pay attention to the character of work or occupation within collaborative (artistic) and voluntary practices. Agreements and authorship in groups, compensation or alternative compensation systems, decision-making, evaluation, conferences, trust and inefficiency are the core-areas in which the Thinktank – collaboratively through its research phase – wants to develop and offer improvements.
3. Making these environments easily usable and accessible for non-computer-skilled people by creating a simple, intuitive and customizable interface, releasing the Thinktank as Open Software, offering Thinktank services such as hosting and group-spaces for free.

Magnetic Memory PAIK
Magnetic Memory:
A Day-Long Video Tribute to Nam June Paik
Saturday, February 25, 2006
10 am - 10 pm
Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI)
535 West 22nd Street, 5th Floor
New York, NY 10011
(212) 337-0680
Please join EAI in a celebration of the videotapes of visionary artist Nam June Paik, who died last month at the age of 73. Over the course of twelve hours, EAI will screen more than 40 of Paik's extraordinary video works, which date from 1965 to 2000.
EAI will open its archives to present a treasure trove of Paik's videos. Works to be screened include his classic television collages, which feature collaborators such as John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Allen Ginsberg, Joseph Beuys and Charlotte Moorman. Highlights will include a rare screening of 9/23/69 (1969), Paik's stunning 80-minute opus of electronic synthesis, as well as his earliest video-film experiments.
Paik's works in performance, electronic music, sculpture and multi-media installation were groundbreaking and influential. His seminal body of videotapes helped to radically redefine the role of moving image media in contemporary art.
Through these remarkable works, Nam June Paik's vision and legacy will continue to resonate throughout contemporary art and culture.
