> At the opening reception OBN introduces itself in a performative way. All speakers of the conference as well as other additionally invited CYBERFEMINISTs present their personal approach to CYBERFEMINISM during a poster presentation. 20-30 presenters are standing in front of their individual posters and explain

> 02: CYBERFEMINIST networking - knot working - not working?
> [day, december 14, 2001, friday]
> Due to the underlying dynamics of networks there is a permanent need to clarify the changing organizational structure and the way that individual members see the network and their roles within it. It is important that members express their divergent ideas of structure and networking and develop them into a common structure which only can be the basis for networked action and reality. Using an open format, the past, the present, and the future goals of obn will be discussed, and all kinds ot utopian visions for obn's future will be aired. A next step will be to go beyond our own network, and to look at the condition and the potential of self-organized structures as an alternative to institutional forms within the art system, academia and politics, and discuss their relations and interdependencies.

> 03: function of (start) function of (shut) function of (stop) function of (open) = new border concepts
> [day, december 14 & 15 2001, friday & saturday]
>
> Mathematical functions are the core of algorithms that operate computers. Temporal and spatial borders can be written as interacting functions. Closings and beginnings, endings and openings combine and cross, thus modeling the experiences of borders we enjoy or suffer. Breakthrough, shelter, prison, invasion or escape are not neutral in terms of control. For: who is able to manipulate those functions? They are always political.
> Liberation was another word for a hack in the system's functions in operation, inserting the border of the real into the reality of the operating system. New border concepts perform the relations of power as well as the dynamics of variable temporal and spatial functions.
>
> CYBERFEMINISM is no game without borders, but a playing with borders that takes them seriously, a work at the boundaries of that 'contested zone' in which the so-called real and virtual diverge, and which mines utopias of transgression, understanding them as a potential for transformation. If CYBERFEMINISM is also a utopia, then its utopian designs can be fictions as well as specific political options. In the field of CYBERFEMINISM utopias offer differentiated models for discussion which can invent new forms of communication, open up new articulations of space and time which do not only function in cyberspace, or suggest models based on genetic technologies, operating new life or gender models.
>
> The borders between political utopia, science fiction, and technological innovations have always been fluid - beyond judgment as to value. CYBERFEMINISTs take an inventive, tactical part in furthering a perforation, diffusion, conversion, transgression, subversion etc. of cultural forms with new
> technological possibilities. Some points of critical and creative attitudes towards fluid borders and special concern are:
>
> - - new forms of global control and subversion through the electronic networking technology: how to obtain and secure privacy? how to react to the globalized economy and to the growing influence of global trusts on national governments?
>
> - - realities and utopian fantasies of leaving the limitations and rules of the known world behind, in outer space as in cyberspace
>
> - - manipulations of human consciousness with drugs/ pharmaceutials, psychological control, or media-related brainwashing
>
> - - incorporation of technology into the human body and genetic engineering, how to understand and invert, use and misuse the possibilities?
>
> - - new imaginations of gender with and without medical creations and redefinitions of sexual organs etc.
>
> 04: very TRANSGRESSIVE
> On the last evening of the conference there will be party, including concerts, DJs and VJs -- an evening when everybody will be crossing borders!
>
> The live acts within 'very TRANSGRESSIVE' give an insight into technical, cultural, political and economic inventions of electronic music and sound production. They present working methods, with a special focus on the underrepresentation of women in this field. What does "feminist" mean for a female commitment in electronic music? It is a question of "technique" - a
> possible musical, theoretical and political "technique" in discussion with the level of media technological development.
>
> 05: brunch

> A casual get together to think over the results of the conference, strengthen our bodies for the trip back home with good food, and say good-bye to old and new friends.

> MINICONFERENCE IN WESTERN NEW YORK:
>              Globalization:  The Stakes of Global Studies in the
> twenty-first century
> DATES: FRIDAY AND SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 21-22, 2001
> LOCATION: STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK COLLEGE AT FREDONIA, FREDONIA NY,
> USA.
>
> "Globalization: The Stakes of Global Studies" takes as its point of
> departure the subject of "Global Studies"-a field of intellectual
> inquiry in the university system that ostensibly speaks directly to
> international relations and corporate control in the past and present.
> It is a series of roundtables designed to spark conversations across the
> disciplines about the
> phenomenon of globalization.  The conference is planned in such a way as
> to resist the traditional format of an academic conference.  There will
> only be one roundtable panel per time slot.  Presenters have been asked
> to frame a question, a problem, or an argument briefly, at which time
> the focus will then turn to a dialogue among the presenters, and with
> the audience.  The conference will thus be a two-day long conversation
> on the subject of globalization and global studies.
>
> Roundtable Presenters Include:
>
> ·       Eric Clarke (University of Pittsburgh, advisory editor for
> boundary 2, author of Virtuous Vice: Homoeroticism and the Public
> Sphere).
> ·       Lennard J. Davis (University of Illinois, Chicago, author of
> Enforcing Normalcy: Disability, Deafness, and the Body, coeditor of Left
> Politics and the Literary Profession).
> ·       Richard Eaton (University of Arizona, author of The Rise of
> Islam and the Bengal Frontier, 1204-1760; Islamic History as Global
> History).
> ·       Ranjana Khanna (Duke University, author of Dark Continents:
> Feminism, Psychoanalysis, and the Postcolonial Condition).
> ·       Peter Linebaugh (University of Toledo, author of The Many-Headed
> Hydra).
> ·       Deborah Rosenfelt (University of Maryland, Director of Women's
> Studies, Area, and International Studies Project entitled "Women and
> Gender in an Era of Global Change: Internationalizing and 'Engendering'
> the Curriculum," author of Sex, Class, and Race in Literature and
> Culture).
> ·       William Spanos (Binghamton University, founding editor of
> boundary 2, author of America's Shadow; The Errant Art of Moby-Dick: The
> Canon, the Cold War, and the Struggle for American Studies).
> ·       Rinaldo Walcott (York University, author of Black Like Who?).
>
> Fields of inquiry such as "Global Studies," "Transcultural Studies,"
> "International Studies," and others have come to transform the
> disciplines of Anthropology, Economics, English, Geography, History,
> Political Science, and Sociology, but in a manner different from that of
> "Cultural Studies," or even "Postcolonial Studies."  Though widely
> acknowledged, global studies has not been adequately thought, especially
> in relation to the stakes of intellectual inquiry in the contemporary
> occasion of the economic, political, and cultural circulation of
> knowledge on a planetary level.  One concern of the conference is to
> consider the stakes of developing a global studies curriculum in
> academia, at both the undergraduate and graduate levels-and to hazard
> for question the rationale for any such curriculum.  Participants will
> be concentrating on the relation between epistemology, pedagogy,
> citizenship, and power in a global order.
>
> These are some of the questions that guided us in the planning of the
> conference: What do the different disciplines mean by "Global Studies"?
> What role might a global studies program play?  What would be the
> intellectual responsibility of the University in this new capacity?
> What are the ontological shifts involved in the development of a global
> order, and the consequences of those changes?  How do questions of
> ethnicity, gender, race and class change in relation to a global order?
> What would be the structure of a "global politics of gender," for
> instance?  What are the consequences in shifting concepts such as
> "global sisterhood" and "transnational feminism"?  Moreover, what kind
> of human subjectivity is made available in this order? What are the
> potentials for forming coalitions with labor unions locally and globally
> when it comes to dealing with the effects of globalization?   In the
> wake of organic, national identities and filiations, what is to become
> of "citizenry"? How does the Global change the status of the Local, and
> the nature of "local resistance"? In general, what positions are made
> available for subjects and communities in a global order, and what are
> the potentials for alterity and freedom?
>
> This event is sponsored in part by a grant from the Carnahan-Jackson
> Humanities Fund of the SUNY Fredonia College Foundation.

> The Art Judgement Show is a television talk show that asks the question,
> 'How does one judge art?' Modelling himself on chat-show hosts such as
> Arabella and Oprah, the distinguished art historian and philosopher Boris
> Groys discusses with a group of students whether today, 'art' still has any
> relevance, whether it is significantly different from commercial pursuits
> such as advertising, design and popular music, and what criteria should be
> used in order to evaluate it.
> Although the issues this raises, relating to language, taste, art discourse
> and philosophy, are often relegated to a purely academic field, TV lends
> itself well to such culturally relevant questions. Most initiatives to adapt
> philosophy to the television format, however, end with trivial chats in
> front of an electronic fire. In The Art Judgement Show, Groys follows the
> opposite path, bringing fascinating philosophical conversation in an
> accessible form to the general public ­ just as Socrates found his
> interlocutors in the market square.
>
> Boris Groys is Professor of Aesthetics and Media Theory at the Zentrum für
> Kunst und Medientechnologie (Center for Art and Media) in Karlsruhe and
> since 2000 Rector of the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. He is one of the
> most influential theoreticians in the fields of contemporary art and
> culture. He has published widely on modernism and the avant-garde and is the
> author of many books, including The Total Art of Stalinism (1988), On the
> New: Essay on Cultural Economy (1992), and Logic of the Collection (1997),
> he is a frequent contributor to Parkett, Artforum, Art in America and has
> written on such contemporary artists as Ilya Kabakov, Peter Fischil & David
> Weiss, Douglas Gordon, Rodney Graham, and Richard Prince.

>
> Comrades:
>
> Unlike other groups -- such as the Ruckus Society, the Sierra Club and
> others, especially in the American environmental and anti-globalization
> movements -- the New York SCP will *not* be scaling back its actions
> against surveillance cameras and face recognition software, its vocal
> opposition to the policies of George W Bush, or its very visible public
> (and Internet) presence, in response to the "attack on America" and the
> calls for unity and "war" against terrorism.
>
> At a time like this -- when the FBI's Carnivore sniffer programs are being
> let loose on the Internet without probable cause or proper search warrants,
> when the media and the American government speak of increasing America's
> use of spies and global surveillance, when others are afraid to speak up
> against jingoism, war-mongering and racial/religious hatred -- it is
> encumbent upon us to remain active, even if it is inconvenient or
> "dangerous" to do so.
>
> Our walking tours will go on as scheduled, as will our plans to make use of
> the growing international network of activists that we all have worked so
> hard to create, because what is truly "dangerous" at such a time is to back
> down or soften our demands upon this increasingly totalitarian society.

> Debate at Videobrasil
> September 23
> 2001
> Participants: Gianni Toti, José-Carlos Mariátegui Marcello Tas, Nils Röller
> The debate will be held in English and Spanish.
>
> Towards Cusco
>
> Ideas to realize a center for art, science and media technology in Cusco
>
> Cusco is a symbol for a dream that may become reality. The southamerican
> city stands for ancient media networks and it will become a monitor for
> future media networks. In the debate Jose-Carlos Mariategui will propose his
> initial idea to build a media center in Cusco.
> Gianni Toti will describe new media centres in Europe and explain why he
> thinks electronic castles (as centres for resistance) are fundamental
> Weapons (tools) in today's world, as well as the importance of the creation
> of a media center in Cusco.
> Marcello Tas is asked to remember the historical attempts of Europeans to
> change their point of view by visiting the jungle.
> Nils Röller will outline how we may overcome historical misunderstandings by
> building Cusco.  Cusco may become through internet-technology an human
> interface between ideas from Europe and Southamerica will meet.
