Monika Fleischmann, Wolfgang Strauss: Performing Data (2011) [English/Polish]:

Performing Data exhibition (April-June 2011) is a review of Fleischmann and Strauss´ body of work from Virtual Reality (Home of the Brain) up to Mixed Reality (Murmuring Fields or Energie-Passagen), from Fluid (Liquid Views) to Rigid (Rigid Waves) up to Floating Interface (Media Flow).

Monika Fleischmann and Wolfgang Strauss from the Fraunhofer IAIS Research Institute show an intersection of the body and immaterial digital data. From Body Space (Virtual Striptease) to Knowledge Space (Semantic Map): Interactivity as an extension of touch is a central strategy of their work – interactivity with its complex relationship to reality, re-presentation and presence.

[Figure 1. Scripted Space] The Scripted Spaces of Urban Ubiquitous Computing: The Experience, Poetics, and Politics of Public Scripted Space by Christian Ulrik Andersen & Søren Pold, Fibreculture Journal #19, 2011: Ubiquity:

The computer is moving out into physical and urban reality. Since Mark Weiser’s call for a ‘computer for the 21st century’ in 1991 a migration from the screen and the desktop towards integrating computers and networks into our surroundings has been a part of contemporary computer science research; for example, in augmented reality, ubiquitous computing (ubicomp), and pervasive computing. A number of technological developments (such as big screens, new smart materials, GPS, RFID tags, and ever faster and cheaper wireless networks) have helped carry the research agendas out into ordinary reality.

Not Here Not There :: Call for Papers - Deadline: January 31, 2012.

Leonardo Electronic Almanac in collaboration with The Samek Art Gallery and with Kasa Gallery announces a special issue titled: Not Here Not There. This issue arises out of the territory between two cultural streams.

In the 1960’s, artist Robert Morris articulated the strategy of representation summarized by ‘site vs. non-site’ whereby certain artworks were simultaneously abstract and representational and could be site-specific without being sited. In the 1990’s net.art re-de-materialized the art object and found new ways to suspend the artwork online, between (web)site and non-site. Continue reading

Amir Baradaran, The BuZZ @ Pulse Miami :: December 1-4, 2011 :: Bryce Wolkowitz Gallery, Booth B-104, The Ice Palace Studios, 1400 N. Miami Avenue, Miami, Florida.

This project represents the newest development of FutARism under the auspices of Augmented Reality (AR). As a minimal still life installation, a faintly historical looking vase accompanied by an antique magnifying glass sit upon a pedestal covered with the artist’s signature markers. Upon closer inspection, one recognizes that the found objects are incomplete: the magnifying glass is missing its lens, and the vase is empty. What are these fragments doing, exalted atop a pedestal?
