Thu Jul 11 14:02:33 CEST 2002
The Live Chat event at Incubation is organised in collaboration with ISEA
(Inter-Society for the Electronic Arts; http://www.isea.qc.ca/), fine Art
forum (http://www.fineartforum.org/) and the Electronic Literature
Organization (http://www.eliterature.org/).
Chaired online by Deena Larsen, invited guests include Linda Carroli and
Alan Sondheim as well as Mez. A bit different from the usual chats, this
will be chaired by Helen Whitehead at Incubation in front of a live
audience of Incubation delegates who will contribute via a live discussion
which will be transmitted via a typist into LinguaMOO.
Communicate and hobnob with your creative counterparts as part of a series
of online meetings at real life conferences to help bring members of the
creative electronic community together. We will talk about important
points in the conference and foster relationships between online writers
and artists with questions such as:
**How can we use the online environment to further collaborations between
artists and writers?
**How do the online environment and other new media tools modify the
relationship between writing, language, imagery, culture, and ethnicity?
**How has online communication and coordination changed art and writing?
**How are lines between art and literature blurring?
**What new ways are we using to communicate with art and writing?

Guest biographies
Linda Carroli has written non-fiction as a journalist, essayist and
critical writer. She is Australian Editor of fineArt forum
[http://www.fineartforum.org], a science, art and technology electronic
magazine. Linda has written several hypertexts both independently and
collaboratively including the award winning *Water writes always in Plural

presented as part of the ELO's State of the Arts Conference 2002, the
Inkubation Salon 2000 in conjunction with the trAce conference, Incubation
in 2000 and MAAP99. She is currently developing a new work, racconto.
"Mez does for code poetry as jodi and Vuk Cosic have done for ASCII Art:
Turning a great, but naively executed concept into something brilliant,
paving the ground for a whole generation of digital artists." (Florian
Cramer). The impact of her unique code/net.wurks [constructed via her
pioneering net.language "mezangelle"] has been equated with the work of
Shakespeare, James Joyce, Emily Dickinson, and Larry Wall. Mez has
exhibited extensively since the early 90's [eg Wollongong World Women
Online 1995, CTHEORY's Digital Dirt, Prague's Goethe Institute, Digitarts
'96, ISEA_97 Chicago, ARS Electronica_97, The Metropolitan Museum Tokyo,
SIGGRAPH_99&00, d>Art 00&01, and in _Under_Score_ @ The Brooklyn Academy
of Music 01]. Mez is also a networked jillaroo, an online journalist and
co-moderator of the _arc.hive_ experimental mailing list. Her awards
include the 2001 VIF Prize by the Humboldt-Universitat, the JavaMuseum
Artist Of The Year 2001, and the 2002 Newcastle New Media Poetry Prize.
She was also a finalist for both the 2001 Electronic Literature
Organization's Fiction Award and the 2002 READ_ME Artistic Software Award
(honorary mention).
