In May 2004 Susanne Jaschko gave a lecture on ‘The Art of Hacking – or: Communication Guerrilla as Artistic Practice with New Media’ and a presentation of selected video art pieces of last year’s transmediale festival during which they discussed both the aesthetics and exhibition formats of the works
Introduction
In 1998 a 21 year old guy named ïto messed up the world of marketing by inventing a very unconventional marketing campaign for a Macintosh computer: the so called “hack- Mac”. This design for a computer cited a military look with camouflage pattern and a solid-defensive casing, thus looking like both a fancy accessoire and a possible weapon. Consequently, the campaign was made up with the obvious slogan “think weapon” in the original Apple Macintosh-fond and the apple motive in slightly darkened colours. Read the rest of this entry »

Presentation of the awards, February 10th, 8.30 pm
The award ceremony of this year’s transmediale.01 for the categories Video, Interactive and Artistic Software took place on Saturday evening. Together with all the shortlisted artists, artist’s groups and numerous international guests, the State Minister for Culture and Media Prof. Julian Nida-Rümelin awaited the announcement of the prizewinners. In his introduction, Nida-Rümelin pointed out the necessity to consider and foster media art as an integral part and critical mirror of the information society.
The prize in the category Artistic Software, a prize which was awarded at the transmediale for the first time at an international festival, was split between Adrian Ward/Signwave (UK) for his program „Auto-Illustrator“ [www.signwave.co.uk] and Netochka Nezvanova for her very idiosyncratic internet browser „Nebula.M81 – Autonomous“ [www.eusocial.com]. The prize in the category Interactive went to Herwig Weiser and Albert Bleckmann (D) for their installation „zgodlocator“ [phosphen.org/zgodlocator]. The prize in the category Video was split as well between Istvan Kantor (CDN) for „BROADCAST“ and Sylvie Laliberté (CDN) for „L’Outil n’est pas toujours un marteau“. Read the rest of this entry »

Transmediale.01, Internacional media art festival
DIY (do it yourself)
Berlín
La Transmediale, como una pequeña gota cargada de nuevas tecnologías, cayó encima del Podewil, centro de cultura contemporánea de Berlín. En comparación con años anteriores, la Transmediale.01 dejó sorprendidos a muchos de sus habituales espectadores. Este año algo había cambiado.
Normalmente se desarrollaba en días paralelos al Berlín Film Festivale (Berlinale), ya que surgió como parte de éste aunque desde su primera versión se independizó. Muchos de los berlineses identifican la Transmediale con una desenfrenada proyección de vídeos, ya que en versiones anteriores las proyecciones se desarrollaban durante los diez días que duraba el festival, sin pausa alguna desde el mediodía a entrada ya la noche.

Arte y Activismo en la Red:
propuestas artísticas para una renovación de las prácticas sociales
El mundo de la Informática y de las Telecomunicaciones mueve la Bolsa, la economía y las finanzas, pero también el Arte y la Cultura. Para algunos artistas la Red representa un nuevo espacio de libertad de expresión ycomunicación horizontal y participativa. Para otros, es el brazo ejecutivo del nuevo poder totalitario de las economías emergentes.
