GRAPHIC ARTISTS . SCI . MUSIC NEWS . CALLS FOR PARTICIPATION . CALENDAR -------------------------------------------------------------------------- EDITORIAL Dirk Boon We wish to welcome Fernando Araujo as our new correspondent from Colombia. Fernando will also cover the neighbouring countries of Venezuela, Ecuador and Peru. Members who can now be reached via e-mail, but who are still receiving the ISEA newsletter by snail-mail, are kindly requested to send their e-mail address to the ISEA secretariat (ISEA@SARA.NL). Since ISEA is still not a very rich organization, and wants to reach as many members (and potential members) as possible (with or without e-mail), we prefer to send the newsletter by the less expensive e-mail route. Although the Inter-Society at the moment has several hundred members in 26 countries, in large regions such as Africa, China, and Russia we have no members at all. In India we only have one member. We think it is important to have contacts in these countries/regions, and to benefit from their cultures. If anybody can help us with this, please contact ISEA. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- COLOMBIA AND THE ELECTRONIC ARTS Fernando Araujo It was more than ten years ago when I first heard the word "Installation" referred to art. The "Installation" was held at the Universidad Nacional in Bogota,Colombia. TEREBRA : As you entered the room (Around 50 sq. meter) you founded three old B&W TVs and some speakers around them.The pictures on the screen showed different views at different times of the surgical procedure known as BRAIN Trepanation.On the audio soundtrack you could heard the sound of the electrical machine used and also the charac- teristic brain bone crushing sound. At the main entrance of the room there were some quotes from an important psychologist related to the link between time perception & events. The objective of the artist was "to made all who enter this room to live "una experiencia de tiempo vacio" (an empty-time experience)". Unfor- tunately I don't remember the name of the artist but one thing to mention is the fact that this installation were attracting Psychologists, Medicine students and ... Engineers !, creating for the first time a true link between Science & Art. It was something real advanced for that time and still it's one of the better installations that we have had here. Since that time an emerging culture for electronic art is developing slowly. Every two years is held here the Salon Nacional de Artistas :it should be the main event but it's really limited for lack of technological capabili- ties and more than that by lack of publicly available information. Art Galleries here are still very classic-oriented and many of their directors think that TVs, Computers & Audio have nothing common to Art. This situa- tion will be changing slowly thanks to some events that I will mention below. Government support -which is limited- is entirely devoted to Classic Opera. As many of you already know,situation in the developing countries is really hard in all aspects and specially for funding. Regarding events in Colombia of interest for ISEA members I will name two: The first is the Festival Internacional de Musica Contemporanea, an idea developed by Cecilia Casas, a classical pianist who also has performed live, some compositions of George Crumb during his visit some years ago. This festival has had three editions with important guests from Finland (Hakilla-Kartunnen), Germany, France (Saariaho), USA & Switzerland, and also the work of some colombian electronic music composers. The festival is funded by Patronato Colombiano de Artes y Ciencias and some private companies. Next edition will be on April-May 1995. Calls for participation will be sent to ISEA as soon as they are available. The second is the Muestra Internacional de Cine y Video sponsored by TPB. This event presents the work of amateur cinematographers and accepts works in all formats (8 mm, VHS, Beta and even 16 mm & Super 8 movies). Next edition will be held on September. More information will be available in the next month. In a next report you will find more information on the events mentioned, and descriptions of the work of some contemporary dance groups. Also a complete synthesis on the past three Festivals of Contemporary Music, which are without doubt the main event for Electronic Arts in Colombia. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- GRAPHIC ARTISTS Dear Sir, Have just heard about your organization through a listing on a computer service called America Online. I am the ethics Chair for The SPGA chapter of the Graphic Artist Guild (chapter located in Seattle, WA, USA) Society of Professional Graphic Artists Statement of Purpose The Society of Professional Graphic Artists exists to promote the general business welfare of its members; to exchange views technical and business matters; to evaluate the standards and working conditions of professional graphic artists; to support the SPGA Code of Ethics and Fair Practices; and to meet regularly for the improvement of business relations of its members. SPGA is concerned with professional business practices only. Members consult on bookkeeping, taxes, billing, estimating and collection procedu- res, ownership, copyright and pricing guidelines. And members "Show and Price" their work at monthly meetings. SPGA does not pass judgment on the cleverness or competence of members work. SPGA believes the best judge o artwork is in the competitive market- place. SPGA members, while often competitors, know that good business practice is good business for all. Members, therefore, are eager to share their experiences and that is what sets SPGA apart from all other organizations and why members support ht ideas and ideals of the Society of Professional Graphic Artists. (This is a main excerpt from the original statement of purpose announced in Seattle over 38 years ago. Recently, the SPGA became a chapter of the Graphic Artists guild, who while not as old as the SPGA has gained higher acceptance and legal muscle on a national level. Where before the SPGA was strictly limited to freelance Graphic Designers and Illustrators, it is now open to agencies, photographers and almost anybody in the graphic artist market.) ********* Why I have contacted you********* Graphic Artist suffer from the public's general ignorance of their profes- sion. The average person has only the mildest guess as to the nature of the type of work a graphic artist does. Almost all the work is copy right related. Since most copyrights are only respected when they recog- nized, ignorance of copyright is the largest enemy of graphic artists. Work (art/design) of artisans are constantly being stolen and misused. Over the years with the help of legal institutions and Graphic related organizations (Such as the Graphic Artist Guild) the public has become more away of the copyright issue as it pertains to artisans. The rapidly growing accessibility to the internet and new technology opens up a very large and very dangerous area to artisans. The ease to which a work can be stolen and misused over and over again is mind numbing. Given that there are others, writers in particular, who also recognize this threat to their incomes, action is no doubt being taken. This action I am sure will become the most well enforce (as far as enforceability goes) and the most widely accepted standard practice to gain recognition in the internet. My request of you is to provide us (graphic artists in our area) with information on the rule structuring (both legal and otherwise) that might be being organized for the Internet and for the electronic Media area as a whole. We are seeking speakers who can enlighten us on what is being done currently, and who might be able to direct our efforts where they would be the most effective. Our meetings are the last weekend of each month. We are building a panel for our June meeting and have hopes of having speakers for a cross sampling of electronic Media present. Can you provide us with anybody? Unfortunatly, we will need somebody local as we have not the funds to fly anybody in. Which leads to my next set of questions: Have you made contact with anybody at the national office of the Graphic Artist Guild? Do you have any members who are local to the area of Seat- tle, WA or thereabouts? Do you have any members in the general American West Coast? Your reply is greatly appreciated, I look forward to knowing more about your group. Sincerely, Mark Monlux MMonlux@aol.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCULPTURE CITY INTERNATIONAL Menno Rubbens Fourth message, 14 april 1994 Summary previous SCI messages: In September 1994 the foundation ATTILA (based in Rotterdam, The Nether- lands) is organizing an international electronic NetWorkshop. The idea is to send and receive 3D-models for SCULPTURE-BUILDINGS. Buildings which are sculptures, and sculptures actually being buildings. Buildings are regarded as sculptures to work and to live in. The main topic of the manifestation will be the relationship between Architecture, Art and Electronic media. With the increasing influence of electronic media on our physical world, the way we experience our physical environment changes. The tendency of communication spaces becoming more and more a-topic will be of great influence on the design of architectural-, sculptural- and cyber- netic-space. The dissolving sensorial boundaries between electronic and physical space will be explored during the manifestation by connecting cyber-spatial-design to physical interfaces, such as milling-machines and VR-installations. Additional Information: 1- The ATTILA foundation has now its own account on The WELL. Please send all questions to: attila@well.sf.ca.us 2- With the assistance of the 'CAD-Training center' of the T.U. Delft the ATTILA foundation has set up an FTP site to make the exchange of files easier. (for info, email: attila@well.sf.ca.us) During the last months we got a possitive reaction on our initiative from you. We would like to know if you are still interested in par- ticipating in the NetWorkshop. If you and/or your organisation would like to participate in the exchange of ideas and models during the SCULPTURE CITY INTERNATIONAL NetWorkshop in september 1994 please send mail to : attila@well.sf.ca.us containing name, email address, organisation, country, and a short note why you would like to participate, and if you will participate as an individual or with a group. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- MUSIC (Source Music Research Digest) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYSTEMATISCHE MUSIKWISSENSCHAFT, SYSTEMATIC MUSICOLOGY - MUSICOLOGIE SYSTEMATIQUE Zeitschrift fuer musikalische Grundlagenforschung, Journal for Fundamental Music Research Journal pour la Recherche Fondamentale de la Musique 1993, Number 1 Volume 1 & Volume 2 1) READERS INFORMATION The 1st number (1993-1/1) of the Journal: Systematic Musicology - Question and Answers, includes on 100 pages results connected with the evaluation of the present state of systematic musicological research in different countries.

It witnessed the early evolutions of graphics technology from vector to raster graphics, then to voxel machines, which combine support for curves, surfaces, and volume data, and finally to multi-media systems, which combine graphics and video. The hardware spectrum has expanded towards new technologies and is heavily exploiting a variety of multi-processor architectures. Yet, despites an explosion of innovations, the challenges imposed by the graphics complexity of industrial models or the performance requirements of virtual reality offer tremendous opportunities for further research. Contributions are invited in all aspects of computer graphics hardware and architectures. Topics include: - Graphics hardware accelerators - Silicon compilers for graphics hardware - Graphics hardware simulators - Performance measurement - Hardware support for meshing and triangulation algorithms - Pixel operations and deep frame buffer techniques - Rasterizer performance and accuracy - Multi-processor architectures for graphics - Shared and distributed memory models - Load balancing in graphics systems - Expansion and acceleration of shading models - Space, screen, and model partitioning - Photorealism support - Hardware assist for animation - Hardware support for texture mapping techniques - Hardware support for image composition and volume rendering techniques - Video support and multimedia - Hardware support for level of detail techniques - Hardware support for trimmed surfaces - Hardware support for virtual reality - Hardware support for voxel and octree rendering - Hardware support for direct rendering of CSG and other CAD represen tations - Architectures for voxel graphics Authors are requested to send four copies of the full paper (up to 20 pages) to Wolfgang Strasser or, for North American authors, to Jarek Rossignac. Papers will be reviewed for the workshop. The accepted papers will be printed before the workshop as an EG Technical report. Best papers of the workshop will be considered for a special issue of the ACM Transac- tions on Graphics devoted to Graphics Hardware. To improve typographic quality, authors are encouraged to use the workshop Latex style available from the chairmen. The workshop will take place at SINTEF in Oslo. The fee for participants will be of 100SF for EG members and 200SF for non-members and includes proceedings of the workshop, lunches, and coffee breaks.
