When all three are completed, it will be made into a 90 minute feature film. Episode 1: Hyung (Big Brother) – Action: The Brotherhood - Two main Characters Tae and Ed-K meet to form a brotherhood, which is put to the test by harsh elements of K-Town. Episode 2: Eur-ri (Honor) – Drama: The Trials and Tribulations of Tae and Ed-K's brotherhood. Episode 3: Sa-rang (Love) – Love Story: The Fulfillment of a Promise – Power and Money is not all for a man. The ultimate gift is Love. Purpose: We want to share with the world the unique 1.5-generation (immigrated to America before the age of 10) Korean American's struggle in dealing with the bi-cultural dilemma and their fight to maintain their cultural heritage in this multiethnic City of Angels. Furthermore, we want to represent the power and creativity of the 1.5-generation Korean Americans who are interested in expressing our perspective to the world through the medium of Film. We are involved in all aspect of making this Film, from pre-production, production, post-production, and music scoring, to distribution. Theme: “Not Koreans, Not Americans, we are the K-Town Cowboyz.” Korean Americans in Korea-town, Los Angeles, have their own style, culture, and flair, unique to themselves. It is this life style, which will be portrayed through the on-the-edge, hardcore, street character of Ed-K and contrasted by the strong, grounded, traditional character of Tae. It is the story of their relationship as they face the harsh realities and disappointments of living in K-Town. Casting: We are currently looking for males and females between the ages of 18 and 30, who are interested in being involved with this project. For any of the following positions: Female Lead, stunts, martial artists, male and female actors, production assistants, extras ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 5 Jun 2001 17:00:38 +0200 From: redaktion@netzspannung.org Subject: netzspannung.org/journal/issue0 (english - deutsch) // die Netzspannung steigt Welcome to the first edition of netzspannung.org/ journal, the magazine for media production and inter-media research. netzspannung.org/journal is an editorial module of the netzspannung.org Internet platform, which goes online in September 2001. netzspannung.org is a project by MARS - Exploratory Media Lab (GMD) and was initiated by Monika Fleischmann and Wolfgang Strauss. netzspannung.org/journal projects a map of media activity. Different formats for print and online are created from a collection of texts and images which evolve gradually to a digital knowledge landscape. Telematically collaborative workspaces offer new opportunities but also create new areas of conflict in using electronic space. In this edition, we reflect on conditions for collaborative workspaces and touch on related areas relevant to the set-up of netzspannung.org. The contributions are grouped into the following clusters: medialaboratories, awareness, online archives, copyright and intellectual property, distributed systems, experimental media spaces, and cultural exchange in the network.

Projects of Critical Participation and Social Interaction in the Public Spac= e. IDENSITY becomes the thematic axis of a programme that gathers=20 projects, promotes participation and proposes debates in the field of=20 creation linked to the public space. Community space, interaction, identity, communication, confrontation,=20 participation and conflict are elements that, connected to social and=20 cultural factors, which are characteristic of the place, become=20 active instruments to project and actively participate in the public=20 space. These activities are developed between two urban areas with different=20 characteristics: a population of three thousand inhabitants in an=20 industrial and rural context, namely Calaf, and another of three=20 million inhabitants in an urban context with more complex=20 characteristics, that is, Barcelona. Taking these two specific contexts a field for projects to happen is=20 proposed and open to experimentation. It is also addressed to=20 creators who develop their work by means of representation or action=20 in urban contexts, working directly in the field of the human=20 interaction which is normally found to the public space. The working=20 process is stressed through the project, participation and debate. IDENTITAT DENSITAT LLOC COMUNITAT IDENTIDAD DENSIDAD LUGAR COMUNIDAD IDENTITY DENSITY SITE COMMUNITY Antecedents of the Project IDENSITY.CALAF/BARCELONA 01-02. IDENSITY.CALAF/BARCELONA 01-02 maintains the sense and the spirit of=20 Calaf Public Art 1999-2000, gathering a number of people involved in=20 creative practices related to the public space, either through=20 activities of participation and theorisation, or through an open and=20 critical debate. In this new stage of the project the aim is to reaffirm the goals met=20 in the former convocation and start a renewal in order to widen its=20 own horizon. This renewal implies the consolidation of the theoretic=20 potential generated in all the activities, the expansion of the=20 connection with other cities that organise activities in the field of=20 creation and contemporary art, and also establishing ties with=20 education and teaching: artists' collectives, schedules, schools and=20 faculties, either of art, architecture or design. IDENSITY. CALAF/BARCELONA 01-02 is a project that has a=20 multidisciplinary character focused on new areas of activity in the=20 public space. It is based on open working processes, participation,=20 questioning and debate. The different interrelated stages that=20 constitute this programme are: - -Public call of projects from other contexts (2001). - -Carrying out the projects in the contexts of Calaf and Barcelona (2001). - -Exhibition of the work in progress (2001-2002). - -Debates. (2002) - -Publication.(2002) Activities Promoted by IDENSITAT.CALAF/BARCELONA 01-02. Public Call to Artists Who Relate their Activity to the Public Space This is a public and open call addressed to artists who have made=20 projects and developed activities or performed in different=20 contextual areas of the public space. Working processes which are=20 open and applied to other social and cultural areas will also be=20 considered. Stressing the Working Process and Investigation A selection committee chooses the artists who will participate and=20 who will carry out a stay in Calaf and Barcelona with the aim of=20 making a project related to both specific contexts. In this sense,=20 the people or the working teams who would like to participate in this=20 programme must explain which are the basic lines of activity=20 developed in both contexts. Giving Support to the Production of Contemporary Creation. Three of the proposed projects will be selected and funded so they=20 can be carried out. There is a period of approximately a year to make=20 the proposal. These projects will be publicly presented in the year=20 2002, together with a programme of debates. Stimulating Debate and Communication A series of artists and theorists, who develop their work in a=20 hybrid area, are invited to expose their positions and ideas in order=20 to establish a theoretical point of discussion. Enacting a Divulgating and Pedagogical Function An itinerant exhibition and a publication comprising the projects=20 developed are the elements that makethe explanation of this programme=20 in other places possible. Other parallel activities can be developed=20 by means of itinerancy. Terms of the Call. The participation in IDENSITY. CALAF / BARCELONA 01-02 is open and it=20 has a multidisciplinary character. It is addressed to artists who=20 work in the field of public space. It is possible to participate with=20 finished works or with projects. These must have focused their=20 investigation on specific contexts and must formulate proposals of=20 critical participation and social interaction in the public space. In order to make the work comprehensible it is necessary to attach=20 all the information that is deemed suitable, as well as the=20 references to the context. It is mandatory to outline the guidelines which the project will be=20 based upon, just in case it is selected. To elaborate them the=20 following instructions must be taken into account: - - The proposals must follow the general guidelines detailed in this=20 set of terms. - - The projects may refer to specific aspects of Calaf and Barcelona,=20 and to common or contrasting elements of both places. - - In Calaf a workshop that involves a sector of its population=20 (associations, groups, collectives, students, among others) must be=20 held, in such a way that the social fabric of the town is involved in=20 the working process. The final project will be written out after a stay in both places. The selection committee of this call will be constituted by: Manuel Delgado: Anthropologist and professor of urban anthropology in=20 the University of Barcelona. Nuria Enguita: Exhibition manager in the Antoni T=E0pies Foundation of Barce= lona. Antoni Muntadas: Artist. Ramon Parramon: Artist, professor and director of IDENSITY. CALAF /=20 BARCELONA 01-02. Realisation of the Projects in the Context of Calaf and Barcelona. Seven authors (or working teams) will be selected among all those who=20 have presented a work in order to develop a specific project in the=20 context of Calaf and Barcelona. The seven chosen artists or teams=20 will be able to realise their proposal in the period comprised=20 between the 3rd and the 16th of September 2001. The stay will be=20 split in two weeks, one spent in Calaf and another in Barcelona. This stay may be considered as a field work that will last fifteen=20 days, so that during this period the participants can concentrate all=20 their efforts in the making of their own projects. Therefore, there=20 will be the possibility to work on ideas related to the specific=20 contexts of Calaf and Barcelona. Afterwards, three out of these seven=20 projects will be selected for a later materialisation, construction=20 and realisation of the workshop. In Calaf, the Town Council will facilitate the basic materials and=20 the required information for these three selected participants to=20 elaborate their own specific projects. In Barcelona, the Centre of=20 Contemporary Culture of Barcelona and Hangar will allow access to a=20 working place and to some of their facilities: computers, video=20 edition and working areas, among others. In Barcelona, the working area does not need to be restricted to a=20 specific zone, although the selection of areas where agglutinative=20 processes of the urban fabric take place will be considered. There=20 will be free access to the Documentation Centre of the Centre of=20 Contemporary Culture of Barcelona, so that any information needed=20 while outlining the project may be obtained. =46ood and lodging expenses for the three final participants will be=20 covered by the organisation. They will also have access to a working=20 place, to basic equipment and to any required information needed to=20 write out the project. If a collective presents the project, the organisation will cover the=20 food and lodging costs of only two members of the group. Exhibition of the Process Apart from this stay in Calaf and Barcelona (September 2001),=20 simultaneously, some activities will be realised centred in allowing=20 communication between participants and groups who take part in and=20 develop the social processes affecting the city itself. Through this=20 mechanism, the formal device that becomes the exhibition will be=20 constructed. This exhibition will be itinerant throughout the year=20 2002. The exhibition of all this process will have a documentary and an=20 audio-visual character (slides, photographs, videos, CD-ROM, etc). Production Three out of the seven specific projects realised in the context of=20 Calaf and Barcelona will be selected and publicly presented=20 afterwards by mid 2002. These projects will be funded with 5000 euros each as payment for=20 wages and material expenses. The selected projects will appear in different forms: an exhibition,=20 a publication in paper and an electronic one in the IDENSITY website.=20 The exhibition will be held in Barcelona, Calaf and Madrid. It will=20 also be part of the Itinerant Exhibition Programme of the Artistic=20 Diffusion Bureau belonging to the Cultural Area of the Diputaci=F3 of=20 Barcelona.

CALL FOR PROJECTS The annual Medi@terra Festival is changing form. Under the title De-Globalizing / Re-Globalizing, the Festival is travelling from the South to the North in the form of a microMuseum. Medi@terra, having developed an intense activity around the questions posed by digital culture, has been included among the events which are organised on the opportunity of the Olympic Games of 2004 in Athens. Its inclusion in the Cultural Olympiad for the years 2001 - 2004 has recently been announced. Medi@terra supports and puts into practice the view of a continuously evolving festival, both in terms of its form and ideas. As such, it invites all those with an interest in research and experimentation around the new conditions that are now being shaped to take part in its new effort: a moving Festival that will start off from Greece, travel through the Balkans and end up in Germany. This movement will be made through a microMuseum: a small, adaptable structure which, making use of new technology, can contain a large number of works of art, views, proposals and presentations, as well as systems and friendly areas for communication and meetings. The works that will travel with the microMuseum are ones which experiment with the new platforms for the production and exhibition of the modern art work through different creative media. The microMuseum is based on the logic of the kiosk that one finds mainly in Greece (peripteron), with a reference at the same time to the concept of the 'small museum,' an idea which began in the 16th century and continues among today's artists. In each host city, the events of Medi@terra will be set up within and around the microMuseum: CD-ROM art, net art, computer art, digital photography, interactive objects and "hand luggage-sized" installations, sound environments and electronic music, screenings, an archive with printed matter, texts in digital form, audio-visual propositions and presentations as well as cultural events organised by the artists and art centres of each city. A debate on the subject of the other side of globalisation will round off the activities of the Festival. An art centre in each city-stop will undertake the setting up and realisation of the microMuseum in collaboration with its various associates, and will participate as a co-organiser in the preparations and making of decisions. In addition, each centre will be able to take part in Medi@terra's journey as a member of the "Observing Cities' Net" via the Internet. Through the Internet it will be possible to follow the path of the microMuseum and participate in its events from a distance, from every point on the globe. The "Observing Cities' Net" is initiated by the network of centres which co-organise the festival, while all the members of the network can observe, guide, disseminate information and participate with work and activities in the unfolding events of the journey. The microMuseum will start from the city of Lavrion, famous from the antiquity for its silver-mines that have supported the Hellenic Democracy of the Golden Age, whilst in the 19th century the first industrial unit was created there. Today, this unit has been turned into a technological park and the Municipality is participating in a programme for the "smart city." Medi@terra will continue its journey through the cities of Sofia & Plovdiv (Bulgaria), Maribor (Slovenia), ending up at the International Book Fair in Frankfurt where the honoured country this year is Greece. Here, the microMuseum will present, along with all the things experienced on the journey, material with information (videos, photographs, texts, etc.) which artists will have produced throughout the duration of the journey.

For more information please visit http://mitpress.mit.edu/promotions/books/BARJHS01 The MIT Guide to Teaching Web Site Design Edward Barrett, Deborah A. Levinson, and Suzana Lisanti Most books on Web design focus on the appearance of the finished product and pay little attention to the ideas and processes involved in intelligent interactive design. This book is based on the premise that the principles that have defined good communication design in the past apply equally well to the Web. The basic process is one of defining the purpose, audience, and style appropriate to one's objectives. Another premise is that effective Web site design is an inherently collaborative process requiring not only technical skills but more traditional written and oral communication skills. Hence, this book stresses a social, process-oriented approach both to design and to classroom instruction. The book covers all aspects of teaching Web design, from optimal class size and classroom configuration to peer review of completed projects. It is written in an accessible style and uses many examples from the Web design course taught by the authors at MIT. Edward Barrett is Senior Lecturer in the Program in Writing and Humanistic Studies; Deborah A. Levinson is Electronic Publishing Consultant, Web Communication Services; and Suzana Lisanti is Director, Web Publishing Services, all at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. 6 x 9, 123 pp., 36 illus., cloth ISBN 0-262-02500-0 Technical Communication, Multimedia, and Information Systems series - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jud Wolfskill 617.253.2079 phone Associate Publicist 617.253.1709 fax MIT Press wolfskil@mit.edu 5 Cambridge Center http://mitpress.mit.edu Fourth Floor Cambridge, MA 02142 ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 06 Jun 2001 12:07:33 -0500 From: computer fine arts <doron@computerfinearts.com> Subject: Apparatus for browser&monitor june 5, 2001 . http://www.computerfinearts.com/contort/ . quicktime streaming, fast connection recommended . ------------------------------ Date: 6 Jun 2001 17:30:19 -0700 From: www@trashconnection.com Subject: THE GREAT VIRTUAL SKYSCRAPER PROJECT SUBMIT YOUR VIRTUAL SPACE NOW!

The exhibition focuses on one area in the Sunset/Sunrise called Silicon Canyon, which is a graveyard for old hardware and software from the silicon based computer chips era. In the Love Letter 87/9.3 the traveler wrote about Silicon Canyon: "And if I wasn't sure I was alive, I would surely think I was in heaven." World of Awe is an ongoing cross-media project since 1995. A fantastical environment that magnifies the formation of a personal world-view. Its landscape is the Sunset/Sunrise, a desert terrain trapped in the mind frame between night and day. Through this landscape, roams a traveler in search of a lost treasure, http://www.worldofawe.net.

Engine 27 173 Franklin St. (btw. Greenwich and Hudson) Admission is free. Michele Thursz introduces: Post Media is a presentation exploring the use of various media and issues pertaining to a collective of "new media" artists. This presentation focuses on the artist as the medium and references the inner process of the project juxtaposed the outer projection of technology as a heroic medium. In refocusing on the Artist and the integral use of appropriation, Post Media demonstrates the exchange of global and theoretical histories and the broadening of the vocabulary of the artist, and of the artist's and viewer's perception of time, identity, and space. // Presenters // *8 bit construction Perry Mahone aka Cory Arcangel, Rick Stryker aka Paul Davis, Dyawn Delario aka Joseph Bonn http://beigerecords.com/ *Natoarts Frank Ruy,and Miska Draskocy http://www.natoarts.com/ *World of Awe Yael Kanarek, , Luis Perez http://www.worldofawe.net *DJ Spooky Paul D.

KUNST > ARCHITEKTUR > DESIGN > IDENTITÄTSPOLITIK Herausgegeben von Beatrice von Bismarck, Diethelm Stoller, Astrid Wege, Ulf Wuggenig Die Publikation erscheint in einer deutschen und einer englischen Version 144 Seiten s/w und Farbe Richter Verlag Düsseldorf 2001 ISBN 3-933807-39-5 Branding the Campus is an extraordinary record of an equally extraordinary art project by Christian Philipp Müller, and a valuable critical primer on the history, aesthetics, and politics of university campus design. Through a collaborative investigation involving students at University of Lüenberg, the artist unpacks the complex philosophical and architectural heritage of the campus form and outlines the profound social, economic, and political pressures confronting its identity today. This is a must-have book for anyone interested in the best of contemporary project-based art - smart and beautiful. As such, others in the fields of architecture, urban studies, cultural studies, and critical theory will all benefit from the book's insights. --Miwon Kwon Assistant Professor of Art History University of California Los Angeles Christian Philipp Müllers exemplary project for the campus of the university in Lüneburg happens at a moment where we see an increasing urgency and necessity to think about non brand oriented exchange and interconnectedness .As Indian economist Amaryta Sen points out there is a necessity for "emipiral connections that link freedom of different kind," a mutually beneficial exchange is what is to be triggered. Mueller's project shows a necessity for collaboration between different models which enhances differences and allows disparated conditions to emerge through exposure and protection. Müller opposes multitude versus the homogenization of universitarian branding. The way how he succeeds in constructing new temporalities is evoking Toni Negri's and Michael Hardt's brilliant interpretation of globalization where multitude "designates new spaces as its journyes establish new residencies. Autonomous movement is what defines the place proper to multitude."--Hans Ulrich Obrist, Kurator am Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris und Chefredakteur von Point d'Ironie. ________________ Kunstraum der Universität Lüneburg Künstlerisch-wissenschaftliche Projektleitung: Beatrice von Bismarck, Diethelm Stoller, Ulf Wuggenig Postanschrift: Kunstraum der Universität Lüneburg Projektbüro D-21332 Lüneburg Phon: +49.4131.78-1210 Phax: +49.4131.78-1246 Web: http://kunstraum.uni-lueneburg.de ------------------------------ # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: majordomo@bbs.thing.net and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@bbs.thing.net
