Dear List

I have taken the liberty to forward yet more info (and a call for
contributions) about the series of research projects initiated by the
Vienna-based organisation CONT3XT.NET.

It promises to be a very useful exploration of issues around curating and
the Internet and a very timely one that takes old(er) discussions on
curating/New Media as a starting point to address more current practices
and the emergent discourse around online curating.

The research is organised around themes addressing technological,
institutional, presentation and participatory aspects (see the call
below).

Joasia

[-CC-] "circualting contexts--curating media/net/art"
1 June - 31 October 2007

The curating of Internet-based art on the Internet is a multifaceted
communication-process between Internet-users with all kinds of different
backgrounds regarding the content. Along with the changing conditions of
production and reception of art on the Internet came new possibilities of
curation which deserve study. [-CC-] "circualting contexts--curating
media/net/art" is a series of experimental long-term research projects
hosted by the Vienna-based organisation CONT3XT.NET <http://cont3xt.net/>,
investigating current tendencies in the curation of (New) Media and Internet
Art. For the catalogue which will be presented in October 2007 in Vienna as
well as online, we currently seek contributions to the following
sub-projects.

--------------------------------------------

[-CC-] "curating media/net/art--discussions"
1 June - 31 August 2007

In a first move participants are invited to contribute to the mailinglist
[-CC-] "curating media/net/art--discussions", a slightly moderated
discussion-list which will be run from 1 June to 31 August 2007. During this
period five common topics concerning the curation of (New) Media and
Internet Art will be the starting point for discussions, lead by the
participants. Excerpts of the contributions to the mailinglist will be
published in the catalogue.

1 visualizing work.flows and (filtering-)processes
2 virtual/real representations in real/virtual spaces
3 facing participation / the lack of collaboration
4 web 2.0--curatorial facilities or technical barriers
