Multimedia Art Exhibition: Submission Deadline May 3, 2004

DIGITAL BOUNDARIES: Multiculturalism, Identity, and Awareness

Curatorial Committee Mark Tribe, Director of Art & Technology, Columbia University School of the Arts Christina Yang, Curator of Visual Art and New Media, The Kitchen Pamela Jennings, Alejandro Jaimes

"Digital Boundaries: Multiculturalism, Identity, and Awareness". We seek art works that, using multimedia, explore issues of cultural identity,cultural awareness, and the boundaries created or enforced through the use of multimedia technology. The emphasis for the exhibition is on interactive art works that realize powerful artistic concepts using multimedia content
and technologies.

At no time in history has technology had the prospect of making a stronger cross-border impact on culture. Technology can be used to create or reinforce boundaries (being fingerprinted and photographed at an airport-- a multimedia experience), as well as to dissolve them (we are bombarded by images and sounds from all over the world). Many of us are being empowered with the ability to easily create digital content, document and share our own experiences and those of others, challenging the roles of art (passive vs. interactive) and revolutionizing the way we see and hear the world. At the same time, only a small percentage of people have access to technology(boundaries of the haves and the have-nots).

Multimedia content and technology are of special consideration because they appeal directly to our senses, elevating the age old dilemma of the distinction between reality and representations of reality. Does this new proliferation and imbalance of multimedia technology help reinforce
boundaries and cultural differences? Does it contribute to define cultural identity in a new age in which everyone talks about multiculturalism? Does it raise cultural awareness or simply numb our senses making us take deep cultural differences for granted because what we "see" or "hear" is
commonplace in this "new" multicultural world? Does it create new boundaries in art or help unify multiple art forms? How can art, in its many roles, make use of the same technology that raises these issues to address them?

For this exhibition, we seek multimedia artworks that challenge the participants to consider these questions through the innovative use of new multimedia technologies and the combination of multiple media (photography, video, sound, etc.). All formats are welcome (narrative, performance, interaction, immersion, etc.).

Camping Excitement

Well, if you read my journal you would know that I missed the big camping trip for a last minute job. Luckily, Southern Yankee [inlink]userName=southernyankee&blogID=4,[/inlink], was able to take a million pictures and post them. Check out the Southern Yankee journal [inlink]userName=southernyankee&blogID=4,[/inlink] to see the pics. There are a lot of them and by the titles name, I think there may be more.

Listening to the Radio

WHyd oesn't anyone listen to the radio. ANy feedback is appreciated. By the way I am playing the 50s propaganda playlist again. It is really funny. You should tune in if you get the chance. Simply click on the Elmwood Online Radio under the userPic and open it in your favorite streaming audio player (e.g. iTunes, winamp, etc.) If you don't have a player that is capable I suggest you use iTunes. It is free and its really a good player/music organizer. You can download it here

Journal Statistcs

If you click on this or on the Check Journal Status link in the side bar, you will be presented with data about you how many times your individual journal has been looked at since Dec 23rd. It is amazing how many time they get looked at. It is only counted when someone selects your name formt he drop down menu form. So these are not random viewings, they are directed viewings of you journal. Just thought some of you might not have realized that.

Hey Elmwood,
Hey. I was just doing a google search to see if any new things have popped up about us, and it brought me to elmwoodstrip.com. Thanks for playing our stuff! Hopefully we'll make it back to Buffalo soon... Keep in touch! Bryn www.modelsons.com

I was just checking our place on google by searching under "elwmood strip" and we finally come up on top. This is a long way from page 6. If you know of anyone who has web space and would like to link to us, please ask them. The more incomming links, the better.

This is timed great with my plans to redo the site in the next couple weeks in coordination with advertising it publically and adding new features. Does anyone have any requests? Email us at the elmwood journal by clicking on the email link under the elmwood userPic.
