Hi all,

just wanted to add to this debrief thread a little by contrasting 4 impressions of the event. ...

Hi all, Its great to read these reflections. For me Electrosmog was always
going to be about the disconnections and disjunctions, as much as it
was about connectivity. In Dunedin we had a 'concrete' presence for the Festival with the
arrival of the Teletrust dataveil (after some really convoluted
customs wrangling that I won't go into... but that epitomized a number
of things about art, access, assumptions, centers and peripheries).
The link up with Mart in Amsterdam to organize the technical test of
the veil was a fabulous hour or two of proper networked distributed
festival experience. Despite this, it was hard to describe the veil
and the festival to the Dunedin audiences without being met with "is
that part of the fringe festival?" A festival with a centre which is off site (but not necessarily off- centered) was always going to be a hard sell. ...

Hi Zita!

backyard dancers had a soundtrack (text2speech piece) made by Becca based on the videos that have been sent in as contributions. It was the link to all performers movement and offered a score to follow. ...

Thanks for those reflections Suzon!

• for the links - I believe that the dance piece was supposed to be
  silent (Becca?), though I didn't realise that beforehand to make it
  clear on the guff about it...

That's a great point - they spent a lot of time wanting to marvel over
the MIT funded facilities at Distancelab while being really unable to
cope with the glitches and 'imperfections' that come with genuinely
experimenting with network possibilities and location over a great
distance and time difference! ...

Hi Zita and all ADA-ists!

Thanks for this opportunity to participate/collaborate to Electrosmog. For backyard dancers, the recording of AUT stream had no sound http://suzonfuks.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/03... ...

This came round this morning but I I doubt if it is true

Google hasn't quit Australia and they have real censorship over there

Dear ADA

So the Electrosmog festival is over.... I'm really happy with all of
the projects and events we organised here, and then I have
reservations about the broader festival, and especially our interface
with it. I should probably work through those more coherently before
trying to say them out loud in public, but these are my initial
thoughts anyway... ...
