CURRENT PROJECTS
ISEA Digital Archive
Project
ISEA is collaborating with
organisations in the field of electronic art to develop an archiving structure.
Together with the Balie, who organized the festival Next5Minutes, we are building
a simple ontology to structure the archiving of both ISEA and Next5Minutes as
an event. Next 5 Minutes - the International Festival for Tactical Media took
place four times in Amsterdam between 1993 and 2003. As a media event Next5Minutes
brings a very interesting aspect of media activism to the fore that is very
different than ISEA's more academic and interdisciplinary take on digital media.
We would like to ensure the specificity of both events while at the same time
enabling interoperability to become a possibility. For this we are also working
with other organizations such as V2_, Montevideo and the Daniel Langlois Foundation,
who already have extensive experience in archiving media art. Through collaborating
in this way, we hope to stimulate more dialogue between organizations to take
concepts of electronic art, media events and media theory further by connecting
and comparing different projects.
ISEA Approval to Publish Material - If you were a participant of one of the
ISEA symposia - for example you published an article in the proceedings or your
work was shown at one of the exhibitions, we would like to ask for your cooperation
and approval to publish any material you included in one (or more) of the ISEA
symposia. We feel confident that the ISEA community supports this project: even
so, we are obliged to inform you. If we do not receive a message to the contrary
before September, we take it you support the project and permit the publishing
of your work.
The launch of the archive is planned for August 2007. Before that we will participate
in workshops and events that deal with online archiving, community presence
and thesaurus building: for instance at V2_'s festival - DEAF in April 2007.
I will also be at ISEA2006 for questions or for any retrieval of archive material.
So, if you have any questions or perhaps you have some dusty VHS tapes concerning
ISEA in your loft, please do not hesitate to contact me!
