Hi, Rachel,

Just want to make sure that this message came through to you via our
CTHOERY Multimedia web mail; I was having some trouble with the system and
would very much appreciate your making sure that the announcement makes its
way onto the Rhizome list.

Best,

Tim

CTHEORY Multimedia announces a new issue of critically important net.art:

Wired Ruins: Digital Terror and Ethnic Paranoia (Issue 3)
URL: http://ctheorymultimedia.cornell.edu

Reacting to the complex horrors of terrorism while resisting the surveillance
regimes of the disciplinary state, "Wired Ruins" invites its users to
intermix critically with net.art projects in three interactive databases:
"Digital Terror: Ghosting 9-11," "Ethnic Paranoia, before and beyond," and
"Rewiring the Ruins." Resisting the repression of the new age of censorship,
"Wired Ruins" presents digital and viral networks of ethnic identities that
emit
faint signals for recognition among the overlapping diffusions of cultural
angst
and digital terror.

Exhibiting artists: YOUNG-HAE CHANG HEAVY INDUSTRIES, Horit Herman-Peled,
Tracey Benson, Jay Murphy & Isabelle Sigal, xiix, Lewis LaCook, Davin
Heckman,Robert Hunter & Guilermo Aritza, Dror Eyal & Stacy Hardy, David
Golumbia, Jason Nelson, Dirk J. Platzek & Han Gene Paik, Tobias van Veen
& Alex Bell, Andrew Hieronymi & Tirdad Zolghadr, Christina McPhee, and
Jason Nelson.
