CTHEORY Multimedia Launch: Digital Dirt
http://ctheory.concordia.ca/
What's the smell of blood on the digital tracks? What's the sound of
static deep in the wires? What's the color of electronic discharges as
they bond flesh to the machine? What's the speed of the body when it has
been force-fed by high tech? What's the rate of burn of the digital
nerve as it blasts off from the gravity field of the human sensorium?
Digital Dirt is first in a series of multimedia events curated by Arthur
& Marilouise Kroker, editors of the electronic journal CTHEORY.
Digital Dirt brings together electronic artists, new media designers,
hyperdance performers, digital musicians, video makers, robotic
visionaries and fleshmatic theorists from the USA, Canada, Sweden,
Finland, Japan and the U.K.
Digital Dirt is the electronic music of Scanner, Steve Gibson and David
Kristian, and the videos of Lynn Hershman Leeson, Hannu Puttonen, Sasha
Costanza-Chock, Brad Andalman and Lewis Cohen.
Digital Dirt is the TRIAD Hyperdance of Marikki Hakola, and the digital
art of Bjorn Wangen.
Digital Dirt is Mez's Fleshistics, Jason Lewis' Dynamic Poetry and
Eugene Thacker's Bio_informatics.
Digital Dirt will melt the wires, sand the chips, rethink digital. Play
dirt!
