EDITORIAL
"THE GEOCITIES OF THINGS"
The “Post Digital ramblings” by Russell Davies at the Strp festival were very inspiring to me. “We can make our own stuff. We can express ourselves. We can build what my friend Andy Huntington calls “The Geocities of Things”. We can add life and connectivity to the things ...

More than 15 years after the beginnings of net art, the Internet has become the most ubiquitous participative global media of the 21st century; a huge territory between normalisation, commerce, hope and utopia. Is the Internet a disenchanted space for artists and creative people or is there a future for online arts and critical creative actions? If so, what are their possible forms and directions?
This is what WJ-Spots Brussels proposes to investigate by gathering an international...
@rt outsiders is a manifestation dedicated to new contemporary art forms.
From November 23rd to December 11th, in European Photography House in Paris, you will see artworks of Kitsou Dubois and Monsieur Moo. On November 23rd, Anne-Marie Morice presents OpenSky by Kazuhiko Hachiya (in partnership with Synesthésie).
@rt outsiders also edit an interactive catalog with artworks of Annie Abrahams, Beatriz da Costa, Nicolas Frespech, Antti Laitinen, Albertine Meunier and Servovalve.

Nicolas Frespech’s experiment is a brave one; how many of us would ask our friends, our families or our peers to define us by both our qualities and our faults? To know in one word, the thing that is good and the thing that is bad about our own personalities? This is what he has asked of those who know him well, and from it, created an overview of his potential candidature. Is he suitable? That is for you to decide, but think also of the answers we would receive if we were to ask the same qu...

STRP festival is devoted to bring together music and artistic and technological practices. It drew more than 30,000 visitors to its many concerts, performances, exhibitions, conferences and workshops in November 2010. As for the rather strange name for the event, it relates to the industrial site of Eindhoven that used to house the Philips brand before it revolutionised the cultural industry with its inventions.
From November 18th to 27th, program is intensive. Performances (Daan Roosegaa...

Juha Huuskonen founded Pixelache in Helsinki in 2002. Since then, a truly international network has emerged around it. The curator, Mathieu Marguerin along with Kevin Bartoli, one of the members of the RYbN group, have prepared the French version, Mal au Pixel, which will take place in Paris next June. But lets first return to the latest edition of the Finnish festival, which was held primarily on the Suomenlinna Islands in March 2011.

"touching" each other through the ocean thanks to a specific interface
conceived at the University of Technology of Compiègne in France, and
questioning intimacy, body, time and space.

/ Who are you? Can you tell us in a few words what you have been doing these last few years?
Above all I’m a programmer and an engineer, having become an artist only of late. As a teenager in the 70’s, I taught myself how to program. As a student, I studied science in great depth, which led to me graduating as an engineer from Telecom Paris, and I put that training to use in the R&D departments of a number of different companies, including Act Informatique (Act Computer Science) in P...

We are all (more or less) intelligent objects. We are already immersed in the Internet of Things (IoT) without even knowing it : microchipped pets, trackable consumer products, biometric passports and geolocation tools all point to a world where real and virtual are already intricately intertwined. Some 35 billion intelligent objects already surround us, for better or for worse.

Stored Alive! is an interactive tutorial program that
lets you explore the ways in which temperature and relative humidity
affect the objects in your collection. It's based on environmental
analysis done with IPI's Climate Notebook
software, which, in turn, is built upon data from IPI's extensive
research into the relationship between storage conditions and the decay
of organic materials.

Panoramas, which took place on October 2nd and 3rd near Bordeaux, is the visible part of an ambitious project led by the GPV, Media-Cités and Le Bruit du Frigo. The purpose of the biennial is to reveal the Park « des coteaux » and create offbeat uses of this territory, both on tangible and digital plans. In this
perspective, the guest artists were commissioned to create works that
come within the geographical and social problematics of this unknown
and stigmatized place on the right b...

Who are you? Can you tell us in a few words what
you have been doing these last few years?
It’s difficult to predict what Internet will become. Most of the predictions have proven false, perhaps because the time frame they’re based on have been rendered obsolete by the net.
On the other hand we can think of the Internet not as a technology which is made up of a set of tools and defined by its performance, but a paradigm that ha...
