The Performer and the Mediated Image
Workshop in Performance & Media Art
The Amsterdam-Maastricht Summer University in collaboration with the
Netherlands Media Art Institute, Montevideo/Time Based Arts
30 July - 4 August 2001, Amsterdam
Introduction
In recent years, increasing attention has been given to cross-over art
forms where the blurring of boundaries between theatre, music, dance,
painting, film etc have allowed new hybrids to emerge in the performing
arts. In one aspect this is not strictly 'new'; the Italian Futurists
were busy making sound machines in performance at the beginning of the
20th century, and artists such as the American Laurie Anderson have long
been experimenting with live-action, video, music and sound interactive
instruments in live performance; hence the term 'multimedia'. But
contemporary arts practice is constantly expanding the use of technology
and mediated image-making in performance, often resulting in a
fascinating melting pot of interfaces, virtualities, physical techniques
and applications, not to mention time/space or theory/practice
explorations.
Visual artists have also long been playing with form and content, and
with methods of presentation. At one end of the spectrum artists such as
Nam June Paik and Bruce Nauman have been making video and installation
art since the 1960s. Towards the end of the last century a new
generation came of age; artists working with the internet, email,
virtual reality, robotics, digital media. This we have come to refer to
as 'Media Art'.
Contemporary theatre and performance-makers are still grappling with the
same original basic premise as their professional fore-fathers; a
fundamentally theatrical concept of live spectacle with audience as
witness. A story or stories will be told (but it may be non-linear);
there will be a beginning, middle, and end (but possibly not in that
order); the form will include a rise to a climax, and a resolve or
conclusion (and most likely more than once); but above all, a suspension
of disbelief is guaranteed. The form of the spectacle may be virtual, it
may be recorded on CD-rom, it may be relayed by live web-cam over the
internet; it may be an ensemble piece happening simultaneously across
the world with each member of the ensemble performing in a different
city, to a culturally different live audience; it may be a personal
virtual experience in the head of one single audience member at a time;
or it may simply require one character to be represented by a TV monitor
or video projection screen.
Course Description
This workshop aims to examine practically and theoretically the advances
and emerging challenges to classical representation, and to look at how
new technologies are radically altering the perception of performance
and visual arts for contemporary audiences;
- - What constitutes a mediated image
- - Which forms of mediation might be appropriate to a live setting
- - What are the consequences of working with these images in direct
relation to the
'unmediated' body of the performer (does theatre/performance lose its
character?)
- - What happens to the relationship between the 'mediated performer' and
the audience
(when it's live but not present, or recorded)
- - How/what can we learn from past practice?
- - How can artists practically work with and utilise new media?
Alongside practical sessions, in which creative ideas and projects will
be devised by the participants and developed over the period of the
course, the work will be contextualised by critical and theoretical
discussions of existing concepts and contemporary practice. These will
be in the form of seminars, debates and practical examples, given by
experts and artists in the specific discipline. Topics include; video
art as fine art practice; technology & performance; "electric
scenography"; interactive performance & time-based media; installation &
site-specific performance; CD-rom / web & internet arts projects;
interactive music and sound.
Participant Profile
Performing Arts practitioners, video artists, media artists &
postgraduate students. Artists from any discipline who wish to expand
and complement their own practice via hands-on experience in
collaborative work of this nature.

Subject: Series of critical lectures: The Living Network
L.S.,
there is a new series of lectures about the inhomogeneity
and lack of inclusiveness of the internetcommunity. The
series starts on 30th of may in The Hague in the Koninklijke
Bibliotheek, no entry fee but a clear mind. The subtitle of
the series is: Outsiders, outlaws, outcasts and others,
which pretty much outlines what the intention is.
The first date will feature four speakers:
Paul de Greef (TUE/IPO), Tom Kok (ex-chair D66/internet
entrepreneur), Eric Velleman (Bartimeus, society for blind
and visually impaired) and Albert Benschop (University
of Amsterdam).
You are all cordially invited to suggest new speakers
and ideas for the future. We don't mind looking outside
of Europe for good ideas and speakers (but we're very
much interested in local speakers too ..)

OUTLINE:
Outsiders, outlaws, outcasts and others
The internet is a gathering place of individuals. That means
that it brings people together in ways that were unthinkable
until recently, but also that a large group of people is
excluded in a structural manner. On the one hand it is a
collaborative project the likes of which the world hasn't seen,
on the other hand it is an economic and technical filter that
will enlarge the differences with another, less fortunate part
of the world. The dichotomy between have's and have-not's
is now more objectivly measurable than ever: it's either on
line or off line. This binary society will be facing new
challenges: who belongs to the internet community,
how wide is the digital gap and who is to remain on
the other side? And how do we call that latter group?
Just as in the rest of the physical world that the internet
is a part of, it is not homogeneous for sure: it is an
undefinable blend of enthousiasts, greedmongers,
idealists, naieve, parasites, victims and aggressors.
What are the edges of the internet community, what
are the rotten parts? Where will we find the balance
between freedom and control, and at what moment
will the blunt overpowering of unwanted use of the
internet cross certain ethical and moral boundaries?

NEW! METROPOLIS M ENGLISH EDITION!
Metropolis M is widely considered the most influential contemporary art
periodical in Holland and Belgium. Artists, critics, thinkers and doers
from the Netherlands and abroad contribute to every issue, making
Metropolis M into a benchmark of the current artistic discourse. The
content may speculate about the future or may pause to deliberate ongoing
phenomena - Above all Metropolis M strives to be on the spot wherever new
meanings are emerging in today's art. We decided it was time to acquaint
the professional field outside the Dutch-language area with this
provocatively designed laboratory of contemporary art practice and
reflection. That is why we have produced a complimentary special English
edition. The special issue contains an extensive interview with Harald
Szeemann, director of the 49th Venice Biennale and a discussion on the
position of contemporary Dutch art abroad. It includes contributions by
Bartomeu Marí, director of the renowned Witte de With Art Centre in
Rotterdam, Rein Wolfs, director of the Migros Museum in Zurich, and
others. The issue also presents essays on the work of Liza May Post, the
internationally active young artists L.A. Raeven, and the promising young
designer/DJ goodwill. A section of the issue focuses on underground art,
art that shuns the official institutions and beats its own path through
the art world.

Forward:
Head of Digital Programmes, Tate
Following the launch in 2000 of Tate Modern and the re- launch of
tate.org.uk – which now receives an avarage of 800,000 hits a day – we have
established this new post to lead Tates’s ambition in the field of new
digital media. Through the organisation of Tate’s digital assets and the
creation of digital content, the aim is to increase public enjoyment of
British modern and contemporary art.
Reporting to the Director of National and International Programmes, the new
Head will lead a small team to research, test and implement new content
options and business driven opportunities. The team is involved in
specialist work including web editorial, web-casting, copyright and content
management. The team’s work is enabled through close co-operation with
Tate’s information systems Department, and by linking to Tate curators and
education staff, and to all divisions and departments across the Tate
organisation. The head will represent Tate within the wider digital world,
nationally an internationally and will look to create further strategic
links and partnerships.
The post requires an understanding of current developments in the
management and distribution of digital content, up-to-date knowledge of all
relevant software systems, budget management skills, together with a least
five years experience in a management position. A keen interest in art and
the particular ways in which museums and artist are using digital media
will be a distinct advantage. More than anything the new Head must have a
clear perspective on the likely opportunities for digital content and
digital learning over the next five years.
The position is being advertised in The Guardian on 21st May 2001.
Closing date: Tuesday 15th June 2001

Subject: INVENTORY: EVACUATE LONDON!
EVACUATE LONDON! Administer a colonic
irrigation to a city stuffed with miserable, gutless, label-adopting
slaves. Down with the ever so jaded, abstracted/distracted, neo-pop
conceit. Thinking is fashioning, not fashion. Ideas have a life-force
that cannot be reduced to empty pattern or banal presentations of
pretension. For this city belongs to us. It seethes with our energy and
ideas. And if we cannot tear it down - then we can build over it,
between and around it. Eroding its outline, fraying its contours,
pulling apart everything that gives this anthill the precious meaning
that is coveted by a spineless minority desperate to hang on to some
semblance of a trendy lifestyle.
Amongst this environment of asphalt and aphasia Inventory rears its
head once more. A unique, thoroughly independent and free-thinking
publication.. This issue, our eleventh, contains essays on autonomous
architecture, money, regimes of value, the gentrification of Berlin,
the history of curry, and much more. It is a journal that is not
constrained by subject matter or or by the sterile conventions of
publishing. Simultaneously intimate and expansive, Inventory engages
with its subject matter in a fiercely sociological manner, acting upon
this environment in the hope of changing the condition of being here.
