Addictive TV - warren suicide

Addictive TV -

ADDICTIVE TV live at SIGGRAPH, Boston, USA
> 2nd + 3rd August 2006
Boston Exhibition & Conference Centre
Boston, MA
An estimated 25,000 interactive technology and CGI professionals from every continent descend on Boston next week to attend SIGGRAPH 2006, the industry's most respected technical and creative event. The five days includes art exhibitions, talks from the likes of George Lucas and ILM, screenings, performances and product fairs. Siggraph is open to the public.
After the recent success of performing their live cinema project The Eye of the Pilot at the San Francisco International Film Festival, Addictive TV will perform the show twice at Siggraph - on both the 2nd and 3rd August - in the specially built Art Gallery Performance Theater at the event.
"Melding elements of graphic design with a sound designer's sensibility
and a taste for eye-catching celluloid booty, these mixmasters and
musicians create something otherworldly and all-encompassing
from behind their Kraftwerk-style wall of synth-and-video-modules."

COLLECTIVE SURVEILLANCE PLAY

COLLECTIVE SURVEILLANCE PLAY

Will Pappenheimer (Digital Art Dept, Pace University, New York)

Network performance, especially conducted through technologies such as the web camera, suggests from the onset, a reversed emphasis on the subject. Conversely, if viewers or online participants are able to affect the performance, the resulting composition can be understood as collective. In a recent paper entitled, “The Plays and Arts of Surveillance: Studying Surveillance as Entertainment1,” written for surveillance-and-society.org, authors, Anders Albrechtslund and Linsey Dubbeld explore the alterior potential of surveillance in playful, humorous, pleasurable and even caring practices. Adopting sinister social (and now socio-technological) interactions for pleasure, play, mimicry, and diversion is indeed a subversive tradition within the arts and culture at large.


This paper will explore avenues within the arts, particularly the technologically based arts, which further subvert this territory. I will look specifically at projects that confound one-way directives, suggest alternate motives for viewing, and collapse the concept of Panopticism by providing the subject with evidence of the presence of the hidden virtual viewer or controlling network (however distant and disembodied). Questioning traditional oppositions of virtual and corporeal, empiricism and representation, “embodiment” can take on more pluralistic or holistic dimensions. What might constitute avenues of caring and community within a surveillance apparatus and its artistic counterparts? The presentation will focus on network/collective artworks attached to, reaching towards, or in conjunction with performance/installation, engaging overlapping technological, virtual and public space in testing this trajectory.

Claudia Dias



Il corpo di Claudia Dias è un corpo oggetto che esce fuori dal quadro, fuori dalla scena, abbozzando un disincanto che contiene l’incanto della pulsazione di una vita. Questo è il corpo che si disfa dei rifiuti urbani per creare la carta del suo mondo affettivo.
(Cláudia Galhos, Revue Título Provisório, Avril 2005)

Claudia Dias conduce lo spettatore nei luoghi della memoria e della geografia quotidiana di Lisbona, la sua città, attraverso ricordi personali e collettivi, che ha raccolto misurandosi, per la prima volta, con la scrittura.
