le frontiere dell'interazione
L'avventura delle Frontiere dell'Interazione ? cominciata con l'interrogarsi sulla User Experience, e quest'anno prova a fare un passo ulteriore. Le finestre delle GUI tradizionali si arricchiscono di rappresentazioni simboliche simul-umane (avatar), si dotano di input device e sensori capaci di collezionare informazioni emotivamente connotate, ed infine escono dagli schermi e camminano su ruote e gambe robot.Cosa mi farete vedere? Alle Frontiere dell'Interazione 2006 si potranno dunque vedere progetti e prototipi di sistemi capaci di "percepire" lo stato emotivo di un utente e comprendere se e' in difficolta' nell'uso dell'interfaccia. Come anche si vedranno interfacce che sono in grado di connotare il proprio output con emotivita' differenti a seconda dell'interlocutore e del contesto. Tutto questo, per consentire alle macchine di essere piu' emotivamente accettabili dagli umani. ...o quando cominceranno a camminare per casa potrebbero essere guai

Memento
Memento is an interactive video installation made by Ulrike Gollner and Jeldrik Schmuch during the INTERACIVOS workshop at Medialab Madrid.
Each person who visits the installation leaves a small part of itself to let future visitors be aware of his/her appearance.Memento will steal your shadow! While interacting with memento, sound is played and manipulated to the shape of your shadow. Meanwhile you see your shape among all the former visitors walking through the room. Time is no longer existant.

Title and Abstract of the talk:
"Hackmeeting and Hacklabs: technopolitics and reality hacking in south-european autonomous networks"
For the last 6 years a number of autonomous collectives called HackLabs (hacker or hacktivist laboratories) have been created at different squat social centers and other self-managed spaces around europe. The network of hacklabs has now more than 40 nodes (most of them located in Spain and Italy) dedicated to build-up community based free-software and open access spaces for skill sharing and collective intelligence, technopolitic experimentation and direct action on several digital struggles (cybercontrol, digital rights, intelectual property, etc.). HackLabs were born as a result of Hackmeetings: underground self-organized hacktivist meetings where grassroot activist and geek culture meet to discuss, exchange and coordinate different knowledge, resources and initiatives around technologies and politics. The talk will focus on a set of trajectories within the hacklabs and hackmeeting networks: the experience of Metabolik (one of the first hacklabs in europe), the distributed and self-managed organization of spanish and european hackmeetings and the recent direct action campaing against intellectual property (CompartirEsBueno.Net). Emphasys will be made on philosophical background, discussion on technopolitical tactics and opportunities for coordination.

About the INFRASTRUCTURE SERIES:
AREA's ongoing and irregular "Infrastructure" series, which will continue with meetings, screenings, shows, dinners, writings, readings over the next year. "Infrastructure" seeks to find concrete methods (developing spaces, producing magazines, journals, websites, events, attachment to funds, etc.) that can encourage the production and distribution of resistant forms of meaning.
As we engage in the project of broadly imagining alternative forms of social organization that would be more free, more fun, more pleasurable, more effective, more radical, and more ethical - the central questions come down to the "Infrastructure" As we try to build support networks, cooperatives, mutual aid relationships and institutions to imagine an existance beyond the rent gap, beyond the non-profit (NGO) industrial-complex and beyond the academy - we must imagine another Infrastructure!

ABOUT criticalartware:
criticalartware is an [application/platform/concern] compiled at the turn of the twenty first century to address hyperthreaded hystories of new media, [software-as-art/art-as-software] and [connections/ ruptures/dislocations] between early moments of {conceptualcode}- based art forms such as artware and Video Art. By drawing [parallels/ paths] between the [concepts/discourses] of these early moments, criticalartware hopes to critically question and [re]connect the current context to its rightful unruley past: a multitude of [personal/subjective] hyperthreaded [her/hi/hy]stories.
