Travail 1: Participation à l’appel à projet pour le pavillon EPICENTRE de la biennale The Wrong. A priori à réaliser en HTML CSS Javascript et à mettre en ligne sur Netlify. L’objectif étant aussi, en deça de la question artistique, une mise à niveau / rappel des cours techniques de l’année dernière.

EPICENTRE -> OPEN CALL TO ALL ARTISTS
https://epicentre.thewrong.org/

-> DEADLINE: OCTOBER 7th (extended)

Submit your digital work to join EPICENTRE, the main show of the next edition of The Wrong https://thewrong.org/ which I co-curate together with a talented team of guest curators from around the world.

-> INFO:
EPICENTRE is a group exhibition exclusively shown offline, (via close range wifi) into the visitor’s personal mobile device. All routers hosting the exhibition will be installed at Centre del Carme Cultura Contemporània CCCC (Valencia, Spain), and 20 other locations in Comunitat Valenciana (Spain). EPICENTRE opens on November 1st, 2019 and closes on March 1st, 2020.
EPICENTRE will materialise itself as
– 21 simultaneous offline digital art exhibition hosted in +50 offline routers.
– Website featuring locations, a list of all contents in every location, and news and updates in each of the locations.
– Printed catalogue featuring all participants work, short bios and links. (to be published in November 1st. 2020)

-> WHAT TO SUBMIT
Submit 3-5 digital artworks. These can be images or videos. no need to be unpublished or recent. Send me your best 3-5 works.
EPICENTRE will be broadcasted exclusively via wifi into mobile devices, so the smaller the file, nicer/faster the broadcast.
– images (gif, jpg or png preferred). max file size: 5Mb
– videos, preferably coded in h264 and mp4 format and optimised for mobile screen. max file size: 10Mb

-> HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR WORK
Please send the works as follow:
– Create a folder with your name as name of folder. this folder is to include grant of rights pdf and artworks.
– « grant of rights” signed by artist, with filled-in infos (PDF attached, but artist can also download here https://tinyurl.com/EPICENTRE-grant-of-rights ), so the artist allow us to showcase the artworks within the EPICENTRE exhibition dates and conditions.
– the 3-5 works; artwork file should be named as artistname-piecetitle.jpg (examples: theclash-londoncalling.mp4 , jacksonpollock-onenumber.jpg)
When all ready, you can send me the zip file via wetransfer to join.epicentre@gmail.com , or if zip file is very light weight (under 1Mb), via email to join.epicentre@gmail.com

-> WHAT YOU GET IF YOU ARE SELECTED
Due to the combination of conditions (large amount of artists to be featured vs. very limited budget) we cannot offer a reasonable payment to all selected artists, so instead we have decided to use the budget available to print a super catalogue featuring your work.
In exchange of allowing us to showcase your artwork as part of EPICENTRE, I will send you 1 (one) copy of the catalogue, featuring your art, to your front door, with no cost.

->
You are welcome you to submit your digital artwork to EPICENTRE. I will contact selected artists via email to give you the good news.
Looking forward to your art.
Here we come!

Proposition de participer à cet autre appel à projet pour The Wrong:
MEGALITH | https://megalith.metamerlabs.io/call.

Jeremy Cahill1 octobre 2019
MEGALITH – Open Call
https://megalith.metamerlabs.io/call

OPEN CALL FOR AESTHETIC EXTREMOPHILES
Megafauna
Microbiota
Fancy Flora
Figments and fragments
at the frontiers of culture
– If your art was a wild animal, what would it be?
– If your art had DNA, what would it look like?
– If your art migrated to another world, would it survive?

MEGALITH is an online and offline exhibition of The Wrong biennale, investigating aesthetics of ephemerality and eternity at the top of the world.
It will be hosted at the northernmost human frontier town, in Svalbard.
Accepted submissions will be exhibited on Metamer’s ‘Wrong Router’, a Piratebox device which displays art for anyone nearby via wifi.

Ⅰ. Naïve Shrine
Ancient humans made shrines to encode messages to the gods. These shrines formed part of the shamanic infrastructure that allowed our world to interface with others. Through MEGALITH, we send messages of our own to other worlds, not within the fossilised remains of the past, but as living creatures that will inhabit the ruins of the future.
Participants from around the world will be able to send digital and physical artefacts for shrine-building over the course of the biennale. These vanguard artists of MEGALITH will shape the foundational rituals and mythology of this practice through their seeding of its most basic elements. The naïve shrine will draw ideas and materials from participants to grow continuously.

Ⅱ. Xenogenesis
Our shrine is built to house art that can survive other worlds. Inside it is a terrarium, for art better suited for postworlds and xenoworlds, fashioned as a vessel. The shrine physically converts art into DNA form for long-term placement within the terrarium’s ecosystem.
As the building blocks of all known forms of life, DNA is the most universal information encoding known to humans.
It can easily last tens of thousands of years in poor conditions.
DNA storage maximises the chances of the shrine’s divinations being understandable into the far future, by beings like ourselves and beings too radically different for us to properly conceptualise.
You can send us art to be transported to other worlds for any reason, whether for the purpose of its quarantine, conservation, crossbreeding, exploration, or the general safety of humankind.
With a bit of luck, and the right offerings to the gods, the shrine’s inhabitants will survive through exile, trials, tribulations, fire, brimstone….

Ⅲ. Lacunae
There exists art that can only be expressed in a private language. It preserves feelings, memories, and ideas like ants in amber.
Its audience consists entirely of nonhumans and not yet extant humans, who inhabit worlds unseen and worlds to come.
Such art defies communication now but may someday be decoded. By converting them into DNA format, these living memories can be extended beyond the living.
We encourage you to send us your unique samples of highly specific or untranslatable emotions such as saudade, sehnsucht and mono no aware.

Ⅳ. Memex Legomena
The presence of art not meant for this world implies another world to which it belongs. Since the art is here, it is not in that other world: all art is on a pilgrimage. However, homesteading postworlds and xenoworlds is dangerous, and there is no guarantee of safe arrival.
Nearly all art ever created has become extinct. Most worlds lack art that was meant for them.
We call for art that will populate the worlds to come and the worlds between: art too powerful for this world; art too pure for this world; art without any family or potential mates; art that could act as founders of new populations of art; art for a world without art; Lazarus species for a world which no longer knows the story of Lazarus.

Ⅴ. Submission Info
Send your submissions to megalith@metamerlabs.io along with some info about yourself and the art.
Feel free to use file hosts like https://wetransfer.com.
If you want, you can specify whether you want your work
– preserved for ETERNITY,
– allowed to reach EXTINCTION upon the end of the exhibition,
– OFFERED UP TO THE GODS who will decide its fate.

Ⅵ. Deadline
MEGALITH is open to the public November 2019 to March 2020.
This exhibit is accretional. It will incorporate new material over time.
To appear at the gallery exhibition in Svalbard, please submit by October 15 2019. Otherwise, you may submit any time online or by mail during the biennale.

Pirate box. Projet stoppé. 🙁
Le post sur Reddit expliquant la fin du projet.
PirateBox is a self-contained mobile communication and file sharing device. Inspired by pirate radio and the free culture movement, PirateBox utilizes Free, Libre and Open Source software (FLOSS) to create mobile wireless file sharing networks where users can anonymously chat and share images, video, audio, documents, and other digital content.

Dernier développement pour The Wrong 2019. Post d’installation sur Reddit en décembre 2019.

Projets alternatifs:

  • LibraryBox: LibraryBox is an open source, portable digital file distribution tool based on inexpensive hardware that enables delivery of educational, healthcare, and other vital information to individuals off the grid.
  • Freedombox: FreedomBox is a private server for non-experts: it lets you install and configure server applications with only a few clicks. It runs on cheap hardware of your choice, uses your internet connection and power, and is under your control. Le plus actif en 2019.
  • Freedombone: Freedombone is a home server system which enables you to run your own internet services, individually or as a household. It includes all of the things you’d expect such as email, chat, VoIP, web sites, wikis, blogs, social networks, media hosting and more. You can run Freedombone on an old laptop or single board computer. No ads and no built-in spying.
  • Mazizone: MAZI means “together” in Greek. The Mazi project is developing a toolkit for building local, community wireless networks: MAZI Zones. We call this alternative technology Do-It-Yourself networking. It combines wireless technology, low-cost hardware, and free/libre/open source software (FLOSS) applications. Dernier update en 2019.
