I was invited to partecipate to the Computer Art Conference in Mexico with ‘The Ball in the Hole‘. Since i could not go there, i proposed a remote interaction, something like a ogg/theora stream and live interview. Though in South America people like Umberto Eco, Semiotics, Orkut, Second Life…

Have you ever seen the Electromagnetic field?
The electromagnetic field is a physical field produced by electrically charged objects. It affects the behaviour of charged objects in the vicinity of the field.

I am currently the official blogger of Transmediale08, festival of art and digital culture in Berlin. I will be writing here during next week. Refresh for updates!
Vortex in a cloud
Video Vortex is over and i did not have time to add information on this blog.
Fortunately other people made a systematic documentation of the event, so i drop here this link from the ‘master of media’ for those interested, though i did not read it yet.
I guess i will post my opinion and a cloud of links, then go back to something else…
Video Vortex
Video Vortex is the new conference organised by ‘Institute for Network Cultures’ in Amsterdam.

HELLO HACKABILITY
Piksel is an international event for artists and developers working with open source audiovisual software, hardware & art.
FORTH TV
I had fun spending the weekend hacking with nice people and friends.
Forth TV is an experimental idea developed by Tom Schouten. The game is building a circuit with a pic chip (or similar) to draw on a television monitor typing commands on a terminal. The programming language is FORTH. The project is part of Brood, forth development system for microcontrollers.
The chain is computer -> usb -> serial -> pic chip -> video cable -> tv.
Fortunately there is someone thinking of serious stuff to do with all these televisions around us.
