The passengers for this voyage will come together from all parts of the world - a joining of creative minds, hands-on experiences, and experimentation. This congress will be a unique Japanese experience, revealing both traditional Japanese aesthetics as well as values deeply rooted in Asian cultures. It will foster a cross-fertilization of ideas and stimulating exchange. Nagoya, Japan. Web: http://www.icograda.org/web/icoevent/nagoya.shtml. The British Council's International Networking Events: Design Education The purpose of this event is to explore and share innovative and best practice in design education at further, higher and postgraduate level. The programme will be based on a very successful event on the same topic run by the British council in London March 1998. The programme will be delivered through a series of presentations, panel discussions and visits. The visit programmes will include some of London=92s most significant design schools, other institutions involved in design education and at least one design consultancy. For more information on this conference visit http://www.dxnet.net/square/press/index.html International Conference of Territorial Development Cite des Sciences et de I=92industrie de la Vilette-Paris Globalization has given rise to a new relationship to territory for both people and firms. It calls for analysis on the creation of more attractive territories and is leading public authorities, both central and local, to examine their responsibility in matters of solidarity. As a consequence, all countries are experimenting with policies that try to reconcile market driven competition and safeguarding of principles and national cohesion. The themes selected for 2002 will highlight the involvement of public and private players in territorial dynamics from three distinct standpoints; local clusters, territorial restructuring and environmental issues.

There will be ten artists or artist groups, each exhibiting on scales larger than theirsolo exhibitions that took placein the P3 art and environment gallery. <Participating Artists> Cai Guo Qiang, Kim Sooja, Tadashi Kawamata, Casagrande & Rintala, Ingo Gunther, Winter & Hoerbelt, Shigeaki Iwai, Yoko Ono, Cine Nomad, Masato Nakamura, and others. <Exhibition Period> July 13, 2002 - September 23, 2002 <Exhibition Contents> Artists who have visited Tokachi to learn the characteristics of the place will create site-oriented installations. Many exhibition planshave already been proposed, including works that are interactive, refreshing, comforting, kitschy, and many others that all have high merit. The main part of the exhibition will take place in a forty-three hectare racehorse track. There will be many exhibitions in the stables along the sides of the track. The audience can walk through the individual exhibition spaces and relax in the cafe, which itself is a work of art. They can bask in the rest spaces underneath trees, looking up at the sky. We plan to create a comfortable site where visitors can enjoy the day, just like being out on a picnic. Ban-ei horse racing in Obihiro usually takes place in the winter, but there may be a special "Demeter Championship". Don't miss it! For more details, please visit http://www.demeter.jp/ ***** II.2 Bodylogo Dani=EBlle Kwaaitaal Niels 'Shoe' Meulman Text by Douglas Rushkoff May 11 - June 15, 2002 The work of Dani=EBlle Kwaaitaal and Niels Meulman and is central to the exhibition bodylogo. Collectively these artists concern themselves with the links between commerce and the visual arts. An important focus in the exhibition is the malleability of identity. In this, the body and the logo are seen as personifications of identity. Even as identity is subject to change, the exhibition creates a field of tension where boundaries can be stretched and new visions arise. Kwaaitaal and Meulman will be showing both old and new work in the exhibition, supplemented with texts by Rushkoff. In addition, new work will be presented which arises from the trio's collaboration. Opening hours gallery: Tuesday - Saturday 1:00 - 6:00 pm More information: http://www.montevideo.nl/www/english/current.htm ***** II.3. COLLECTED VISIONS http://cvisions.cat.nyu.edu questioning how photographs shape our memories Link directly to the CV gallery @ http://cvisions.cat.nyu.edu/gallery where two exhibitions are on view: Exhibition 14 is a bilingual collection of stories from a workshop I led last summer at a conference in Mexico on Memory, Atrocity, and Resistance. Exhibition 15 contains 30 submissions submitted from throughout the world during 2001. The searchable archive now contains over 2,500 family photographs donated by hundreds of people. 200 + stories conveying the psychological, emotional, funny, and often disturbing nature of photographs are posted throughout the site. Tools are given to submit your photos and/or stories. If you haven't visited Collected Visions in awhile, many new images and stories have been posted. If you have never explored the site, I invite you to discover the many images that have already been contributed, and read the stories they inspire. Please visit often, contribute, and let me know what you think.

The research project must focus on one of the Foundation's collections; a profile of the Foundation's collections is available at the following URL: http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/CRD/index.html Twice a year, the CR+D will welcome a researcher for three to six months. The researchers will be given access to computer and audiovisual equipment, the Foundation's database and its documentary collections. Their research findings will be published on the Foundation's Web site. For more details on this initiative, consult the program of grants for researcher in residence in the Funding Programs section of the Foundation's Web site: http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/programmes/bourses.html The deadline for applying is *August 31, 2002*. If you don't have Internet access, or if you have any questions about how to submit a project to the Foundation, please contact the program officer Jacques Perron. http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/CRD/index.html http://www.fondation-langlois.org/e/programmes/bourses.html ***** IV.5 Reviewing slides for inclusion in a presentation at the National Gallery, London.

It is some of the effects of media communications technologies on knowledge, both its form and content, that we would like to explore in this =91e-issue=92 of Culture Machine. The example Derrida gives in Archive Fever concerns psychoanalysis (although he also refers to literature, philosophy and love letters in a related passage in The Post Card), but contributions might examine the effects of different electronic technologies on a variety of fields - cultural studies, gender studies, politics, history, science, law, medicine, biology, anthropology, art history - as well as on ideas of the book, the letter, the university, the library, the art gallery and the museum, as well as, of course, the archive. Do telephones, the cinema, radios, portable tape recorders, CDs, VCRs, DVDs, cell phones, computers, printers, faxes, televisions, teleconferences, communications satellites, the Internet, the World Wide Web, hyper-text, e-mail, the e-book, Bluetooth et al produce possibilities for prosthetically =91improving=92 the performance of our current disciplinary fields and forms of knowledge (in terms of the amount of material that can be stored, the speed of production, the ease of information retrieval, the range of distribution, reductions in reproduction, distribution and staffing of posts)? Or does our present =91discourse network=92, to borrow Friedrich Kittler=92s term, contain the potential to bring such fields and forms to an end? What happens to teaching, writing and research when the academic gift economy - recognised through peer-to-peer computing (P2P), open source, freeware or shareware - is taken as a model for the communication, publication and exchange of ideas? Or when, as has already been the case with some contributions to Culture Machine http://culturemachine.tees.ac.uk/Cmach/Backissues/j001/Test/index.htm http://culturemachine.tees.ac.uk/Articles/art_kolb/Introduction_143.htm http://culturemachine.tees.ac.uk/art.harn.htm) digital publications stop trying to merely transfer print aesthetics into an electronic form and start producing texts which are 'born digital': texts which are not restricted to the book or essay format but which, as Lev Manovitch maintains, take the database as the 'new symbolic form of [the] computer age', and consequently 'do not tell stories=85 don't have beginning or end; in fact=85 don't have any development, thematically, formally or otherwise which would organise their elements into a sequence'; or are produced as 'codework', in which the technical and cultural practices of electronic writing are combined. Contributions that take advantage of and explore the effects of electronic media technologies in their form, as well as content, are of course welcomed. So, too, are those which experiment with the way in which electronic media technologies may place the very legitimacy of certain forms of knowledge in question. Deadline for submissions: October 2002. Contact: Gary Hall School of Arts Middlesex University White Hart Lane London N17 8HR UK E-mail: g.hall@mdx.ac.uk gary.hall@connectfree.co.uk Contributing to Culture Machine Culture Machine publishes new work from both established figures and up-and-coming writers. It is interactive, fully refereed, and has an International Advisory Board which includes Robert Bernasconi, Lawrence Grossberg, Peggy Kamuf, Alphonso Lingis, Meaghan Morris, Paul Patton, Avital Ronell and Nicholas Royle. Culture Machine welcomes material from Britain, Australia and the United States, and is particularly interested in acquiring contributions from those working outside the usual Anglo/Australian/American nexus that currently seems to dominate so much of Cultural Studies. Appropriate unsolicited articles of any length from academics, post-graduates and non-academics will all be accepted for publication, as will contributions which respond to or seek to engage with work previously published in Culture Machine. So-called =91inter-active=92 texts are also welcomed, as are any forms of contribution that take advantage of and explore the uses and limitations of digital technology. Culture Machine publishes one edition of the journal each year, with Culture Machine 5 appearing at the beginning of 2003. All contributions to the journal are refereed anonymously. Authors should follow the Culture Machine Style Manual in preparing their articles (http://culturemachine.tees.ac.uk).
