Le mardi, 30 mai 2006, Upgrade Montreal sera l'hote de la premiere rencontre
nord-americaine de la liste de diffusion internationale <nettime>.

La Rencontre inaugura aussi l'edition 2006 du festival des arts numeriques
de Mutek.

Nettime.org est depuis longtemps le point focal du indymedia mondial, du
net-art, des medias tactiques et des arts technologiques. Depuis 1994, sa
liste de diffusion, ses discussions enligne et hors ligne, ses publications
et ses rencontres ont galvanise une quantite de reseaux transnationaux de
meme que leurs praticiens, developpant ainsi une expression de cette culture
sous le nom de "net.criticism." En 2006, Nettime celebre son 11e
anniversaire, fort d'une decennie de publications, d'interventions et de
debats. __Cela etant dit, quel est le role continu et l'impact de Nettime de
nos jours_?

Etant un noeud d'Upgrade International, un reseau grassroots d'art
technologique en expansion, la Rencontre posera une serie de questions a
l'egard du futur de Nettime: quels en sont les nouveaux participants, et
quelles sont les nouvelles directions prises par les medias tactiques?

Membres du public, artistes, theoriciens, auteurs, codeurs, et curieux de
tous genres sont les bienvenu(e)s a cette serie de presentations et de
panels qui seront suivis dAune soiree de musique et de performance dediees a
Nettime, ses membres, ses oeuvres, ses passes et ses futurs. Des membres
internationaux de Nettime seront de la partie, ainsi que des moderateurs de
liste. Nettime est une liste ouverte et cet evenement est ouvert au public!

On Tuesday, May 30th 2006 the Upgrade Montreal will bring together the first
North American gathering of the global mailing list, <nettime>.

The Gathering will also launch the 2006 edition of the Mutek festival of
digital culture.

Nettime.org has long been the focal point of global indymedia, net-art,
tactical media and the technology arts. Since 1994 its mailing lists, online
and offline discussions, publications and gatherings have galvanized a
flurry of global networks and their practitioners, developing an expression
of Net culture known as "net.criticism." In 2006, Nettime celebrates its
11th birthday against the backdrop of over a decade of publications,
interventions and debates. __But what is the continuing role and impact of
Nettime today_?

As a node in the expanding, grassroots technology arts network Upgrade
International, this Gathering poses a series of questions to the future of
Nettime: _who are the new practitioners & what are the new directions in
tactical media_?

Members of the public, artists, theorists, writers, codemonkeys and the
curious are welcome to attend a series of talks and panels followed by an
evening of music and performance devoted to Nettime, its members, it works,
its pasts and its futures. International members of Nettime will be in
attendance including list moderators. Nettime is an open list and this event
is open to all of the public!
