"Graph Theory seeks to connect composition, listening, and concert performance by coupling an acoustic work for solo violin or solo cello to an interactive web site. On the web site, users navigate among sixty-one short, looping musical fragments to create their own unique path through the composition.
The navigation choices which users make affect future concert performances of the work. Before each performance, the soloist prints out a new copy of the score from the web site. That score presents her with a fixed path through the piece; the order of the fragments is influenced by the decisions that recent web site visitors have made.
Graph Theory is a 2005 commission of the New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc., (aka Ether Ore) for its Turbulence web site. It was made possible with funding from the Greenwall Foundation. It was created in collaboration with designer Patricia Reed and violinist Maja Cerar."

I/O Brush is a new drawing tool to explore colors, textures, and movements found in everyday materials by "picking up" and drawing with them. I/O Brush looks like a regular physical paintbrush but has a small video camera with lights and touch sensors embedded inside. Outside of the drawing canvas, the brush can pick up color, texture, and movement of a brushed surface. On the canvas, artists can draw with the special "ink" they just picked up from their immediate environment.

VisualComplexity.com intends to be a unified resource space for anyone interested in the visualization of complex networks. The project main goal is to leverage a critical understanding of different visualization methods, across a series of disciplines, as diverse as Biology, Social Networks or the World Wide Web. I truly hope this space can inspire, motivate and enlighten any person doing research on this fiel
"Functional visualizations are more than innovative statistical analyses and computational algorithms. They must make sense to the user and require a visual language system that uses colour, shape, line, hierarchy and composition to communicate clearly and appropriately, much like the alphabetic and character-based languages used worldwide between humans."

The reality we perceive is not a flow of flat images as a digital camera or video camera would output, but consciousness "of things." This project attempts to represent that consciousness.

rand()% is an automated net radio station streaming real-time generative music. All audio is generated by algorithmic software applications and programs written by sound artists and programmers.
In partnership with The Media Centre rand()% has commissioned several new generative audio works. The idea was to commission new works specific to rand()% which explore randmoness and generative music composition.
The first commission is from Alku and comes in the form of several works tying together their Formatissimo series and culminating in their installation e+ included in our rand()%lab exhibition.
The second commissioned piece is by Dextro. This includes several modified pieces from the recently released Dextro: A / Turux - b CDRom and a new automatic work entitled m000.dxr

Si vous êtes autour de Londres la semaine prochaine... "Haque Design + Research: project participation ============================================== a collaboration with Professor Chris French, Goldsmiths College, funded by a Wellcome Trust, SciArt award. Dear All We are about to enter the testing phase of a project to synthesise the experience of a "haunted" space. We are now looking for people interested in participating in the experiment at a venue in North London. ------------ By appointment only Dates: Weekdays, August 29 to mid-September (may be extended). Place: 1 minute walk from Finsbury Park tube station, London N4 Time: Any time between 10am and 6pm. ------------ As a participant you would be asked individually to spend up to one hour in the specially constructed chamber. Participation may involve periods of exposure to infrasound and/or magnetic fields. You may experience mildly unusual sensations and will be asked to keep a record of these. "Infrasound" is sound at frequencies below approx. 20Hz, which is generally too low for humans to perceive as sound. The magnetic fields will be generated by electromagnetic coils and will be similar to those generated naturally by the Earth. The levels used in the experiment will be at or below levels detected in the natural environment. These too will generally not be perceptible on a conscious level and are well under ICNIRP guidelines for health and safety. In some cases, participants will be exposed to neither phenomena, though these participants will not be informed of this until the end of the experiment. In these cases, participants will be given an opportunity to experience the space with all phenomena active, though the results will not be included in the dataset. If you are interested in participating please let me know by emailing with: ------------ Your name: Your availability: Day / Date / Time Any family history of epilepsy?: ------------ I will respond to confirm or suggest an alternative date/time and will include full address and directions for the experiment site. If you choose to participate, please be aware that you may withdraw from the study at any time and for any reason without being required to provide an explanation. Data will be held securely and in the strictest of confidence. In the final report the results will be presented in such a way that the individual identity of all participants will remain strictly anonymous. Thank you! Usman Haque"

The Japan Media Arts Festival defines new modes of expression, showcases artists who have produced works of outstanding brilliance, and introduces the creative process that goes into such works to a wider audience. Now the entry for the 9th edition of this festival has been opened.
The number of entries continues to rise on an annual basis, with last year's festival featuring 1,498 works of art. In addition, the exhibition of prize-winning works attracted 44,000 visitors in 2004, just another sign that this festival is growing into one of the top events devoted to media arts in Japan. This year, to introduce new Japanese talent and culture to overseas, the prize winning works will be shown at several international media art festivals such as Siggraph (US), File (Brazil), Ars Electronica (Austria) and Sicaf (Korea).
The deadline is on 20th of October.

Chris Cunningham will play a special Audio Visual set using his own music and film work, including bits of 'Rubber Johhny', 'Flex' and other pieces chopped up in the mix. Aphex Twin will play a laptop set alongside, his first Euro show of 2005. This is the first time these two video and sonic collaborators have come together for a festival performance!

C'est vrai que le terme «audio-visuel» peut sembler un peu poussiéreux en cette ère multimédiatique, cinéma-maison, P2P, X-Box, iPod, haute-vitesse et tout le truc. «Audio-visuel», ça fait local beige d'école secondaire avec une vieille télé couleur branchée à un magnétoscope VHS servant à diffuser des documentaires sur la bataille des plaines d'Abraham.
Comptez sur le festival Elektra pour remettre ça au goût du jour: du 10 au 15 mai prochains, les organisateurs de ce sixième festival promettent aux Montréalais «la fine pointe de la création audiovisuelle et technologique».
Car l'un ne va pas sans l'autre, et sur le plan technologique, l'organisation d'Elektra a déniché les plus fins bricoleurs d'expériences sensorielles pour nous en mettre plein les yeux et les oreilles. La programmation du festival - qui aura lieu pour la première fois au printemps - s'articule autour de quatre axes: les installations, les conférences, les performances musicales et visuelles et, pour la première fois, un volet portant sur le design. Plus précisément, sur le design animé. «Par opposition au design graphique statique, parlons de design en mouvement», tente d'expliquer Alain Thibault, directeur d'Elektra. De design tel qu'on le conçoit sur le Web, à travers la vitre d'un écran d'ordinateur. D'organisation et d'animation d'un espace virtuel. De ces petits détails, par exemple, qui, sans se faire remarquer, rendent plus agréable l'expérience de navigation d'un internaute.
