TASI - Some Places Still Available on Autumn Courses

From: Dave Kilbey <d.kilbey@BRISTOL.AC.UK>

Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2008 09:32:36 +0000

Dear all

Do you need to improve some aspect of your digital imaging skills?  Do you 
need to know more about copyright pertaining to images?  Are you faced with 
the daunting prospect of building an image collection?  If so, TASI (the JISC 
Advisory Service for still images, moving images and sound) has a few places 
left on its autumn/winter training programme.

The training courses TASI offer are consistently rated very highly by course 
attendees both in terms of the content and presentation on the day and for 
longer term usefulness in work related processes.  Previous workshop 
attendees have commented saying:


"I found the TASI course very informative and have
already applied what I learnt to my job, and passed on some of this new 
knowledge to colleagues and students."

Jude Walton (Photography Technician - Truro College)



"I very much enjoyed the course.  It was well structured and the trainers 
were exceptionally helpful.  I have since implemented a lot of their advice in 
my work and hope to attend a follow up course in future."

Iris Millis (Heritage Assistant
Association of Anaesthetists of Great Britain and Ireland)


We currently have some places left on the following courses:

5th November 2008  	Colour Management
7th November 2008 	Building a Departmental Image Collection
14th November 2008 	Optimising your Images using Adobe Photoshop

Press release: [ddaa] 2008 an Norman White!

From: Paul Brown <paul_brown@MAC.COM>

Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2008 12:56:50 +0000







   Preisträger Norman White (2. von r.), Sponsoren und Initiatoren des  
Preises                                                         Norman  
White, Helpless Robot

Norman White, Canada, is the award winner of the d.velop digital art  
award [ddaa] 2008!
award for digital art
The award ceremony took place  at the art fair ART FORUM BERLIN on  
Saturday, November 1, 2008.
The d.velop digital art award [ddaa] is a highly regarded  
international prize that honours the most important artists in the  
area of digital art for their life’s work or for a group of works. In  
2008, the prize was awarded for the third time, this time under the  
patronage of the governing mayor of Berlin, Klaus Wowereit, and in the  
context of the ART FORUM BERLIN.
The prize was created in 2005 by the Digital Art Museum [DAM]. The  
goal was to foster awareness for digital art in general and for the  
innovative and highly accomplished pieces of art produced in this  
area. The first two laureates were Manfred Mohr, Germany, and Vera  
Molnar, France. The prize, endowed with EUR 20,000, is sponsored by  
the d.velop AG and the Hauptpharma AG. The agency komunikation  
lohnzich, Münster, is partner of the prize. In addition, the laureates  
receive an exhibition in the Kunsthalle Bremen with a catalogue.
This year’s laureate is the Canadian Norman White, a pioneer in the  
usage of electronics and robots in art. For decades his machine- and  
robot-creations have been enriching the discourses in the area of “New  
Media”. Through his enthusiasm for experimentation Norman White has  
developed trend-setting works in electronic art. Already at the end of  
the 60s, before the era of computers, Norman White worked with kinetic  
electronics. White views computers as interfaces between man and  
machine, which can be programmed according to the user’s discretion,  
and as universal brains for robots. For him computers are no compliant  
tools that limit creativity, but rather „fun-house mirrors“. He mainly  
presents his works in social spaces where they anonymously confront an  
unprepared public. This strategy is complemented by his untiring  
commitment to “Rawbotics” and to “Sumo Robot Challenges”, which he co- 
founded.
The jury:
Dr. Susanne Jaschko, Managing Curator, Netherlands Media Art  
Institute, Amsterdam, Netherlands
Dr. Barbara Nierhoff-Wielk, Art Historian, Hameln, Germany
Dr. Michael Klein, Director, Institute for New Media, Frankfurt/Main,  
Germany
Prof. Dr. Wulf Herzogenrath, Director, Kunsthalle Bremen, Germany
Wolf Lieser, Director, Digital Art Museum [DAM], Berlin, Germany
The honorific speech was given by Dr. Michael Klein, INM-Institute for  
New Media, Frankfurt a. M.
Concert: Dorit Chrysler, Theremin, New York
Patronage: Klaus Wowereit, Governing Mayor and Senator for Culture,  
Berlin

Digital Art History Databases Online - request for suggestions

From: Paul Hertz <paul-hertz@NORTHWESTERN.EDU>

Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2008 14:50:08 -0600

Hello,

In the wake of the Second Bremen Symposium on Early Digital Art this summer, I've started to put together a list of online resources on new media art history. You can find that preliminary list here:

http://ignotus.com/research/digarthistdb.html

Could I ask this community to cast an eye over it and advise me as to its completeness. I hope to expand the list and add a brief commentary to each entry. Any additional entries you could suggest would be most welcome. 

I'm particularly concentrating on online databases. I am not sure which of the art history database projects are still "alive" and which are completed or dormant. That would be useful to know, but I think I will have to contact the people involved in each project to find out.

many thanks,

-- Paul

 About the Symposium
---------------------------------------------
The symposium celebrates curiosity in creative digital work, bringing together artists, 
designers, computer scientists, developers and academics. All papers have been peer-
reviewed by an international panel.


---------------------------------------------
 What is the point?
---------------------------------------------
The theme is controversial: the event title - 'Completing the Circle' - implies that 
evaluation is often missing from the creative process. But what is the role of evaluation 
in creative practice and how, if at all, is this altered by digital technologies? 

Interactive digital technologies offer an increasing range of opportunities for artists, 
designers and other creative workers to find out how their work is experienced. Some 
creative people are keen to embrace these opportunities, while others consider such 
methods an intrusion. The symposium allows participants to share ideas and expertise 
and tackle some hard questions.

An international programme of speakers present papers which focus on using interactive 
technologies and other novel methods to evaluate the user's or audience's response to 
media including artworks, designs and performance. 

Leaders of the field from around the world will contribute, including Professor Ernest 
Edmonds who directs the Creativity and Cognition Studios at the University of Technology 
in Sydney, and Kristina Hook, professor in human-machine interaction at Stockholm 
University/Royal Institute of Technology. The day of eight papers plus discussion includes 
papers exploring innovative uses of eye-tracking technology; non-verbal elicitation of 
responses to design; changes in the relation between artist, exhibit, gallery and public 
brought about by digital interaction (including a speaker from the Metropolitan Museum of 
Art, New York). Other speakers will interrogate the basic principles in question.

Participants will benefit from new knowledge on techniques of evaluation, important case 
studies, and the practical and conceptual issues to be confronted. 

This event is organised by the Lansdown Centre for Electronic Arts at Middlesex 
University and supported by the BCS Computer Arts Society and the Design Research 
Society.

 The papers are listed here:

I thought CAS/DASH members may be interested in this unique opportunity to support an important part of computer history:

Bletchley Park logo
BUY RARE LIMITED EDITION COMMEMORATIVE PRINTS OF WARTIME BLETCHLEY PARK AND HELP REGENERATE THIS IMPORTANT HERITAGE SITE
We are pleased to announce that you can now buy beautiful limited edition prints of wartime at Bletchley Park signed by five of the original World War 2 Codebreakers.

These attractive framed prints are being issued to commemorate the phenomenal technological achievements of the Codebreakers that both shortened the war by two years and laid the foundations for modern day computing. The proceeds from the sale of these prints will make a direct and vital contribution to the continuing work to restore and regenerate Bletchley Park.

There are a total of nine fine art prints each mounted and framed and delivered to you ready-to-hang and you can choose from three different frame options to suit your own décor.

Some pictures have been exclusively released by GCHQ and previously unavailable to the public; these historic pictures of Bletchley Park's wartime codebreaking work are being reproduced in partnership with CreateOnline, the Bletchley Park based, fine art prints company that looks after the online printing for National Geographic, Punch Magazine Library and many other galleries.

Signed by five of the surviving Codebreakers: John Herivel, Keith Batey, Mavis Batey, Oliver Lawn and Sheila Lawn, the strictly limited edition, framed prints are supplied with a certificate of authenticity from the Bletchley Park Trust and are available on a first-come-first-served basis.
Details of the Signatories

1. John Herivel, Codebreaker, was a mathematician at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, when he was personally recruited by Gordon Welchman for Hut 6 and became responsible for the famous "Herivel Tip".

2. Keith Batey, Senior Codebreaker, was a mathematician from Trinity College, Cambridge, before he was recruited to work for Gordon Welchman in Hut 6.

3. Mavis Batey, Codebreaker, from 1940 to 1945 working for Dilly Knox in Cottage 3, and was a key figure in the codebreaking intelligence which led to the Allied victory at the Battle of Cape Matapan; the biggest naval success since the Battle of Trafalgar.

4. Oliver Lawn, Codebreaker, at Bletchley Park from 1940 until Sept 1945, was a mathematician recruited by Gordon Welchman from Jesus College Cambridge for Hut 6. Oliver worked alongside Alan Turing until Turing moved over from the Army and Air Force Enigma to the Naval Enigma.

5. Sheila Lawn, Codebreaker, was a linguist recruited from Aberdeen University to work on Hand Codes in Block B. Sheila met Oliver, her husband -to-be, Scottish Dancing at Bletchley Park and they married in 1948.

To view all of the prints, their full description and price, click on Prints. Also there are full details of the collection, including prices and the number of prints available of each design, from The Bletchley Park Trust web site at www.bletchleypark.org.uk/shop/index. Orders may be placed with The Bletchley Park Trust from 14th November 2008.

Many thanks for all the suggestions. A revised list is up at http://ignotus.com/research/digarthistdb.html 
. It has strayed a bit from my original intent, research on the early  
decades of digital art. Notably, I have broken out a section on online  
projects, which may eventually find itself a new page. Also, my intent  
is not to be exhaustive--where projects are concerned, that would be  
an enormous task--but to provide a snapshot of how databases are  
emerging as a research tool for early digital art.

saludos,

-- Paul
