Subject: INVENTORY - HIROSHIMA
During the month of August Inventory
will site a temporary structure within
the grounds of an erstwhile army
clothing factory in Hiroshima, Japan.
One of the few buildings left standing
after the 'Little Boy' detonated above
the city, our intention is to use the
monument as a base from which to
disseminate, exchange and display
information.
We are beginning that process now with
a request for contributions in whatever
form, either electronic or 'hard
copy':
text > images > realaudio files > mp3s
> links > cassette tape > cuttings >
opinion > bile > sentiment >
analysis......
What constitutes an urban Community?
Can a city be considered a place of
continuity? If so, is this continuity
to be found in architecture/artifacts
or people?
What happens when a society reinvents
itself?
What role does technology have in a
city terribly transformed by it?
What is architecture once it has ceased
to be inhabited?
Is the sky above a city part of that
city?
What does the past mean for you?
What does this present moment mean for
you?
Is the notion of progress an important
idea to you - if yes/no - why?
Does the self or others matter most?
yes/no/neither - elaborate.
What meaning and/or value does work
have for you?
Is our society defined by the
monumental or the mundane?
yes/no/neither?
Is a successful society one that
conforms to an overall ideology or
vision?
Is the world a more violent place -
yes/no - why?
Can violence be represented? - Do
current conflicts such as Kosovo have
little meaning in the age of
television? Is there a refusal to take
on this trauma as our own?
Has the age of television in fact
receded? Has anything taken its place
or is broadcasting itself receding?
What is sacred to you? and why?
What are your dreams?
What guides and shapes you - fate or
character? neither? suggest?
What understanding do you have of
death? - what would it mean for you (or
someone close to you) to vanish without
a trace? - does this devalue a human
being in the memory or imagination of
another in the absence of any kind of
memento mori?
Does popular culture offer
opportunities for individual expression
or does it offer a kind of belonging?
What is foreign? - do you have memories
of being an outsider?
Is communication between beings always
and necessarily imperfect and
incomplete?
Do states dream?
To live is to die?
When is annihilation possible? When is
it desirable?
Is narcissism the foundation of
communication?
Does ecstasy exclude method?
What passes through us?
How far are you from the centre of your
home?
Do states dream of an ordered
self-communion that would impinge upon
a body fetishised by technology?
Does anyone give a damn about
identity?
What's inside you? Behind you?
Are we to be eternally embarrassed by
revolution?
Is history always a fiction in a
landscape of constructions?
Why do we name objects as if they were
characters in a script?
Where does the space for improvisation
occur between one and zero?
Fission or fusion? What is between
these processes?
Have you ever worked in a factory or
have been involved as a "moment" in a
mass production process? - describe the
conditions. Are there feelings of
impowerment or loss in such a process?
Is myth an important part of life
today?
Is freedom possible in a planned city
or is freedom possible in an unplanned
city?
Is information a commodity rather than
an animated idea?
Does information have the same status
as knowledge?
What would be the most important
category in understanding life - its
process or substance?
Does photography, and many other
technologies besides, merely encourage
an introjection in the user?
Is nature something that has to be
understood? overcome? tolerated?
Do we project our desires on to
nature?
Describe within daily life, at work,
social gatherings etc., how much of
this existence is supported by ritual
practices and complex, detailed
symbolic systems?
Is humankind only partly rational?
Is the present formed and informed by
the past
If at all, how do you conceptualise the
spiritual - as immanent or
transcendent?
Please send responses to any or all of
the above questions to Inventory at the

bidding over the internet.

Re: participation and cooperation in a network project
We're looking for people interested in participating in the project "my
private home in the global village". This piece of work is to be created
for the exhibition
Convention - < 0-1/ and back again >
Kunsthalle Schirn, Frankfurt, Germany
July 23 through August 8, 1999
Project:
"My Private Home in the Global Village"
by Annette Goedde
in cooperation with Fabian Englaender
For further information please check
http://www.oszilla.de/private-home
Project description:
All participants are asked the question: "What does your ideal home look
like?" They are encouraged to react spontaneously, writing down the
first
ideas that come into their head, trying to express them as clearly as
possible. Accompanying drawings or sketches are welcome.
Send us an e-mail telling us about your ideal home. We'll interpret your
description and make a real-life model based on this information.
This will take place during the exhibition at Kunsthalle Schirn from 23
-
30 July, 1999. Our exhibit will consist of a combined modeling workshop,
computer workplace and presentation space where your idea will be
implemented and shown alongside our models of ideal homes contributed by
other participants. Over time, a "model city" will evolve.
During work on your model, questions may arise. If you are interested in
communicating with us about your idea, this will be possible from 23 -
30
July 1999. A picture of your model will be sent to you as an image file.
You can then suggest improvements which we will try to follow
immediately.
Just put "communication" under your first mail to us to let us know we
can
get in touch with you via e-mail during the above-mentioned period.
Each day, new pictures will be added to the project's website,
documenting
the development of the model city. Each participant will be sent a
picture
of his or her finished model.
If you are interested in this project and wish to participate, we would
greatly appreciate it if you could send us your idea/sketch as soon as
possible. Also, it would be very helpful if you could forward this mail
to
friends or other people you think might be interested.
Yours

Wiretap 5.07: Tekkie Therapy
Date: Sunday 18 July 1999
Time: 14.00 hrs (doors open 13.00 hrs)
Location: V2_, Eendrachtsstr. 10, Rotterdam
Entrance: fl. 7,50
Guests: Erik Hobijn (NL), Henk Oosterling (NL), Erik Davis (US)
Moderator: Alex Adriaansens, V2_
The 1999 Wiretap series focuses on the possibilities of acting, interacting
and intervening in media environments like the Internet and Virtual
Reality. The series investigates the effects of these actions through
digital media on our social and cultural environments. (where we live,
work, learn, communicate and amuse ourselves).
Artists and scientists present projects and concepts about a special theme.
The Wiretap of the 18th of July has the theme 'Tekkie Therapy'
TEKKIE THERAPY
The programme Tekkie Therapy presents radical projects and concepts in
which (media) technologies are used to level emotional blockages, to recall
and work through repressed dreams and fears, and general therapeutical
applications. Tekkie Therapy deals with the physical and psychological
mobilisation of body and soul in the arts, science and techno-utopianism.
Technology and therapy are closely connected. Therapies have always been
specific techniques of care and treatment with or without technical
apparatuses, based on herbs, acupuncture, massages, language, technology
and media in the wider sense of the word. The technological age has not
kept its old utopian promise of an existence in permanent happiness. On the
contrary: every technology that is invented as a remedy appears to be
accompanied by new physiological or psychological problems.
Especially in different psycho-therapies, media and technical apparatuses
are used to stimulate the mind, to re-animate repressed thoughts and to
break through mental blockages. Even in the nineteenth century, psychiatric
patients were reminded of their own past and their 'real' existence by
showing them their own portrait photographs. Another example of a medial
therapy is the test of Rohrschach, where abstract drawings are used as an
inspirational source for free association. Nowadays, we find a growing use
of new technologies, like computergames, Internet and robotics in such
contexts.
Wiretap 5.07 deals with three extreme positions in the domain of Tekkie
Therapies. The artist Erik Hobijn introduces several of his installations,
like his potential 'suicide machine', through which user and audience are
offered a physically and psychologically transgressive experience. The
philosopher Henk Oosterling talks about the
unstable triangle of body, psyche and machine, by way of an analysis of
notions of technology in modern psycho-therapy. Using examples from
Hobijn's work, but also by referencing phenomena like the Tamagotchi,
Oosterling deals with the relationship between, and the psychological
consequences of, medial interactivity and interpassivity. The cultural
critic Erik Davis speaks about the Extropians, an American sect of
techno-utopians who search for a release from all earthly inconveniences by
completely technologising their lives. As special guests we expect a number
of Shadow Buddies, therapeutical dolls with disabilities, protheses, and
beaten faces.
Guests:
Erik Hobijn studied at the Rietveld Akademie and, after a few years in
Berlin, now again works and lives in Amsterdam. His work moves between
performance, theatre, pyro-arts and digital media. He examines the friction
and the cathartic collision of the human body with the machine and natural
materials like metal, water, fire and sound. The art project Delusions of
Self Immolation from 1991 offers a user the opportunity of a journey to the
limits of existence. The Dante Orgel is an installation-performance with 15
flame-throwers for a big audience: a
machine-choreography of light and heat, beauty and destructive energy.
Furthermore, Hobijn is developing concepts for Techno-Parasites, little
machines which tap into big machines and eventually use their energy for
their own disruption and destruction.
Erik Davis is an author, journalist and cultural critic who lives in San
Francisco. He writes for Gnosis, Wired, Details, The Rolling Stone and
especially for The Village Voice. His subjects range from television and
music to philosophy. At the beginning of the nineties he first became
interested in digital technology. He wrote an essay under the title
TechGnosis which later resulted in a book with the same title in which
Davis examines relations between technology, religion and techno-utopianism.
Henk Oosterling is the co-ordinator of the Centre of Philosophy and Art at
the Faculty of Philosophy of the Erasmus University Rotterdam. He did
linguistic didactics and political work with guest workers and immigrant
working youths in the 1970s, and lived in Japan and studied sword-fighting
(kendo) in the 80s. Since 1985 Oosterling has been practising dialectics at
the Faculty of Philosophy of the EUR, then also French theories of
difference and, since 1992, aesthetics, a trajectory that is documented in
three philosophical books about the relationships between philosophy,
politics and art. Together with Siebe Thissen, Oosterling recently
organised a publication and a conference about the French philosopher and
psychiatrist Felix Guattari.
The Wiretap series is supported by the Rotterdam Art Foundation and the
Dutch Ministery of Education, Culture and Science.
V2_Organisation is financially supported by Cultural Affairs of the City of
Rotterdam and the Dutch Ministery of Education, Culture and Science.
