EDITORIAL
Wim van der Plas
With the preparations for ISEA 95 in Montreal, Canada being well under
way, and those for ISEA 96 (Rotterdam, Holland) starting up, the ISEA
Board recently took a decision on the location for ISEA 97, the 8th
International Symposium on Electronic Art. It was the most difficult
decision the ISEA Board ever had to take, because both remaining
candidates seemed excellent. After voting, the Board decided for Chicago,
USA, instead of Nagoya, Japan. We like to congratulate the School of the
Art Institute of Chicago and thank ARTEC for their proposal. We hope ARTEC or
another Japanese candidate will apply again, for one of the next symposia.
Paul Brown wrote a review of ISEA94 for the Australian magazine Eyeline
(#26, 1994). With their kind permission we reprint it in this issue of the
Newsletter.
An update of the geographical distribution of ISEA membership shows that
some small parts of the world are still missing (where is China, where is
Africa, where is Russia?). Who can help us out?

ISEA 94
Paul Brown
This Review first appeared in Eyeline Magazine, number 26, Summer 1994.
It's the Fifth International Symposium on Electronic Art - ISEA 94, and
another year has passed. Last year was Minneapolis in November, snow on the
ground and sub-zero temperatures. This year it's Helsinki in late summer and
idyllic evenings where the sun begins to set at 7:00pm and is still busy
painting the sky with crimson and vermilion three hours later. I miss the
long evenings of northern Europe and it feels good to be back.
I'm sitting on the terrace of the Marina Hotel drinking expensive beer with
Margaret Turner from QUT, Brian Langer from the Australian Video Festival and
the English artist, Sue Gollifer. Sue distinguished herself earlier in the
day during her presentation to the symposium by apologising for being
British, in recognition of the preponderance of Australians at ISEA.
Australia is a vast continent with a small and distributed population and
communication technologies have a well established cultural footprint. The
Queensland And Northern Territories Air Service was the worlds first
commercial airline. Fax machines gained ubiquity here long before they hit
Europe and have only recently caught on in the USA. So it's not surprising
that Australian artists have established pioneering reputations for their
work in art and technology. Or that they have a major presence at
international events like ISEA.
The symposium began in Utrecht in 1988 and continued at Groningen (90),
Sydney (92) and Minneapolis (93). It's the creative peoples own show and has
grown to become one of the most significant art and technology events in the
annual calendar.
ISEA 94 had problems. The Baltic artship M/S Stubnitz didn't arrive which
robbed the symposium of their main social meeting place as well as a
performance and gallery space. And the Portacabins intended for many of the
interactive pieces were unsuitable and had to be abandoned. In consequence
the main show, at the Museum of Contemporary Art, was cramped and several
pieces found themselves alongside unsuitable neighbours. Nevertheless the
organisers pulled together an exciting and full program and the ISEA
Navigator, which listed the weeks many events, consisted of eleven pages of
small print.
It included a music program held principally at the Sibelius-Academy in a
wonderful electronic concert space, a Soiree of Electronic Verse by the
Living Poets Society at the Restaurant at the Cable Factory. Live broadcasts
on both TV and radio and a festival of ambient and techno music. Computer
games at the CompuCafe and global InterNet access via the Multimedia
Backbone (Mbone) and World-Wide-Web (WWW).
The ISEA 94 juried film show included two exquisite French works: Ils sonst
tous la! (Les Quarxs) by Maurice Benayoun and Tableau D'Amour by Beriou as
well as two Australian pieces: Peter Callas' Ernst Will's Picture Book and
Nano in News SOS by Troy Innocent and Elena Popa. Later in the week the
retrospective show of films by Larry Cuba was presented by the artist himself
much to the surprise of the audience who were expecting only a short movie
show. Larry gave a fascinating account of what it was like to make computer
animations before the term existed (and before any suitable equipment was
available). His final attempt to mould the technology which, by his own
account ... "burned him out" ... was Calculated Movements (1985). It remains
one of the few masterpieces of this new genre and I was amused, after the
performance, to hear a young "computer artist" dismiss Larry's work as ...
"boring old wireframe stuff". Art and technology must be maturing (either
that or the pioneers are growing old)!
The old warehouse building beside the grandeur of the Marina Hotel was, by
contrast, the kind of stark and functional arched brick building typical of
northern docks. It housed a mixed show of Russian work together with what
was, for me, the focal point of the ISEA 94 Art Show. The Audio Pendulums by
Christian Moller is a three metre working model of an interactive sound
installation intended for Helsinki's Lasipalatsi (Glass Palace). The
proposal includes seven 11 metre long blue poles suspended 5 metres apart in
front of the building and able to sway in the wind. A video camera transmits
their moves to a computer system that transforms the movement into deep and
sonorous sounds. The model was an excellent piece in its own right and
illustrated a concept capable of becoming a major work.
At the Museum of Contemporary Art in rather cramped conditions the pieces
competed for attention. Paul De Marinis' work The Edison Effect mixed
primitive with high technology. Simple mechanical assemblies used lasers to
"read" the audio tracks from holograms of a 78 rpm recording of "The Beer
Barrel Polka". The artist comments: "Once I realised that only light
reflections were needed to make the recorded grooves audible, it became
apparent that a hologram (the memory of light reflecting from a surface)
would suffice to play music."
Several artists showed interactive multimedia pieces. They included George
Legrady's autobiographical reexamination An Anecdotal Archive from the Cold
War and Troy Innocent's fantastic interpretation of cyberculture - IDEA>ON!.
Another Australian at the show was Brad Miller with his interactive CD-ROM A
Digital Rhizome. The snapshot I missed was transgenderist Sandy Stone in
heated discussion with Stelarc beside a plexiglass dome housing his Stomach
Sculpture.
Adelaide-based VNS Matrix exhibited their All New Gen as part of a larger
installation. Their work provocatively pitches women into the technology
arena and was in sharp contrast to the discursive approach of Christine
Tamblyn who also explored the response of women to a patriarchal technology
in her CD-ROM She Loves It, She Loves It Not: Women and Technology.
In Paul Sermon's Telematic Vision two identical lounges, one at the Museum
and another in the Marina Hotel cafe had video cameras trained on them and
both images were then composited together on large video screens which faced
the sitters. The simplicity of the idea belies its power. It was
fascinating to see people seated next to virtual but "live" companions from
across the city and learning how to accommodate and communicate with them.
Kids played pillow fights and adults dropped inhibitions and made overt
sexual contact with complete strangers.
This is only a brief summary of a complex event and interested readers may

9 - 11 November, 1995, Bologna, Italy
The Colloquium on Musical Informatics is an international biennial meeting of
researchers in computer applications in music, organised by the Italian
Association of Musical Informatics and by local partners. Previous editions
(held in Pisa, Milano, Padova, Pisa, Ancona, Napoli, Roma, Cagliari, Genova,
Milano) showed an increasing interest in this area, has proved by the number
and quality of scientific contributions and the appearance of computer
music systems providing tools for new aesthetic solutions. Two special topic
of this 11th edition are concerned with the analysis of electroacoustic music
and the historical role of the radio in the development of the
electroacoustic music.
Contributions to the Colloquium can be of the following kinds: scientific
papers, posters, demonstrations, compositions.
Proceedings of the Colloquium will be published.
SCIENTIFIC SESSIONS ISSUES
Computer Assisted Composition, Algorithmic Composition, Music Theory & Formal
Tools, Artificial Intelligence & Music, Computer Assisted Musicology, Music

-Concerts
-The annual general meeting of the Italian Association of Musical Informatics
-On the occasion of the Celebrazioni Marconiane and of the internet project
of the Bologna City Council a project for a collective composition over the
internet network will be launched. It should be a sort of colletive collage
with subsequent processings, and the interface will clearly be differentiated
according to the kind of computer linking. During the Colloquium of Musical
Informatics a sound installation with the result of the project will be
presented. Those interested in the project can contact the Organizing
committee.
