Bringing together artists, programmers and theorists, these interdisciplinary panels will look at how surveillance and data-mining technologies shape and influence our lives and the consequences they have on our civil liberties. We are living in a time of unprecedented surveillance, but unlike the ominous spectre of Orwell’s Big Brother, where power is clearly defined and always palpable, today’s methods of information gathering are much more subtle and woven into the fabric of our everyday life. Through the use of seemingly innocuous algorithms Amazon tells us which books we might like, Google tracks our queries to perfect more accurate results, and Last.fm connects us to people with similar music tastes. Immersed in social media, we commit to legally binding contracts by agreeing to ‘terms of use’.

This network proposes an alternative to the flatness of common online social networks. It is a medium that works outside the business of profile pictures, status updates and “Like”-buttons. People can connect by leaving anonymous voice messages in public space and listen to what has been previously recorded. A sticker showing a unique number serves as the link between a location and a voicemail box. When calling, a person has access to all previously left messages, and can record their own voice message.

We will build design prototypes and document design fiction related to future “diet-tribes” and “food-cults” that use emergent technologies for novel dining and social practices related to food. Secret Cooks Dinner Sous Vide Dinner in Singapore In this workshop we would like to rethink the relation between food and technology and experiment with future metabolic exchanges that are biological, technological and political at the same time. From global supply chains to bodily metabolic exchanges eating involves political, technological, biological but also social acts that cut across various scales and form complex systems of relations and interdependencies. American fast food soliloquies, communal and family organized meals, the street-food culture of Singaporean “hawker” stalls, European restaurant enclaves for small elites and community pubs represent the complex relation between technological, political and economic systems involved in eating.

Labster project aims at creating an online, interactive map, in order to offer personal narratives related to the worldwide Art and Technology DIY culture. In the first phase of the project, narrative texts are collected without a standard data input process to catch site of a wide range of terms, notions, definitions of lab’s practices, ecosystems and lab-life. Initiated by Attila Nemes (researcher and curator, Budapest HU) & Catherine Lenoble (cultural producer and writer, Nantes FR), Labster project proposes an ethnographic approach. Through holding workshops and helping people to write their stories, we hope that these personal narratives could build a valuable knowledge database.

Association ressource et pépinière de projets innovants, PiNG conseille, accompagne et impulse des initiatives qui permettent d’identifier, d’expérimenter et d’évaluer les usages sociaux et culturels du multimédia. Le projet associatif se décline autour de cinq pôles de compétences : Accompagnement, Pédagogie, Expérimentation, Médiation, Territoires & Réseaux. A travers ses activités, PiNG valorise la dimension culturelle des pratiques numériques, à la fois comme outils d’accès à la culture et aux savoirs, outils d’expression et de création, outils de mutualisation et de coopération.suivi: Zones of Contact and Fields of Consistency in Electronic Literature
This panel will explore the relationship between criticism and creative practice in electronic literature. Participants will discuss the potentials of and limits to literary criticism in the realm of digital poetics and narrative. This panel will explore the relationship between criticism and creative practice in electronic literature. This discussion will discuss the potentials of and limits to literary criticism in the realm of digital poetics and narrative.Born Digital by Stephanie Strickland
E-poetry relies on code for its creation, preservation, and display: there is no way to experience a work of e-literature unless a computer is running it—reading it and perhaps also generating it. This “rule” is important for what it rules out: e-books, digitized versions of print works, and other word-processed documents, on- or offscreen. Today all communication is computer-mediated, except for face-to-face encounters and handwritten, typewritten, or letterpress sheets. Print books are made from digital files, as are newspapers and films. Print is but one form of digital output. What is meant by e-literature, by works called born-digital, is that computation is required at every stage of their life.The program for the ELMCIP Seminar on Digital Poetics and the Present is now available. The seminar will take place on December 9th and 10th in Amsterdam, Holland at the University of Amsterdam. Readings and performances will be given in the evening at the political and cultural center De Balie (Friday) and the Perdu Theater (Saturday).

The evolution of media art has a long history and now a new technological variety has appeared. However, this art cannot be fully understood without its history; "depth of field" analyses of images can play an important role in facilitating our political and aesthetic analysis of the present. The video documentation of Oliver Grau's keynote speech Media Art Explores Image Histories: New Tools For Our Field at ISEA2011 is available online in five parts.
