TELEPORTING AN UNKNOWN STATE Teleporting An Unknown State (1994/96) Eduardo Kac "Teleporting an Unknown State" is a biotelematic interactive installation. In other words: it is a computer-based telecommunications piece in which a biological process is an integral part of the work. The installation creates the experience of the Internet as a life-supporting system. In a very dark room a pedestal with earth serves as a nursery for a single seed. Photo: Gumparnat Pasaganon The installation takes the idea of teleportation of particles (and not of matter) out of its scientific context and transposes it to the domain of social interaction enabled by the Internet. A new sense of community and collective responsibility emerges out of this context without the exchange of a single verbal message. This piece operates a dramatic reversal of the regulated unidirectional model imposed by broadcasting standards and the communications industry. Photo: Anna Maria Chupa The exhibition in New Orleans ended on August 9, 1996.

Amiga Juggler Animation Behold the robot juggling silver spheres. The cover of the May/June 1987 AmigaWorld. Thus begins the article in the May/June 1987 AmigaWorld in which Eric Graham explains how the Juggler was created. The program (with full Intuition interface) promised at the end of the article was Sculpt 3D for the Amiga, released in the fall of 1987. Byte by Byte sold Amiga and then Macintosh and Windows variants of Sculpt for more than a decade. Eric rendered the frames in a raytracer he wrote called ssg, a Sculpt precursor. Eric and his wife Cathryn actively promoted raytracing on the Amiga. Juggler was an astounding demo in its time. In fact, Eric recalled, the Commodore legal department initially thought it was a hoax, and that I'd done the animation on a mainframe. Turner Whitted's 1980 test of raytraced reflection, refraction, and shadow. Tracing rays to create realistic 3D images, the method used to render the Juggler frames, was an idea that had been in the air since the 1960's. From the Author

ALm5wu05reAUn2uokGrI7ja3urhkuc9tu Gy6TW jrJN s40 c 40 Maps They Didn't Teach You In School By the time we graduate high school, we learn that they never taught us the most exciting things there. Sure, you might be able to name the European countries or point New York on the map, but does that give you a real understanding of how the world functions? We have gathered a tremendous and informative selection of infographic maps that they should’ve shown us at school to fill this gap. Every single one of these cool maps reveals different fun and interesting facts, which can actually help you draw some pretty interesting conclusions. What makes infographic world maps so engaging is how easy it becomes to conceive graphically presented information. Without further ado, we invite you to learn things like the most popular sports in different countries, who has the biggest breasts, the red hair map of Europe, the world’s most consumed alcoholic beverages, or which brands dominate in various states of the USA in these funny world maps.

Jodi rend le net crazy | La Gaîté lyrique Jeudi 29 Mai 2014 Depuis 15 ans, le duo de net artistes, Jodi, pique et pointe les nouveautés, les dangers et les potentialités du net avec ses oeuvres déroutantes. Pionniers et perpétuels défricheurs du net, ils sont invités ce soir à la Gaîté lyrique par Marie Lechner dans son cycle "Folklore du web". Joan Heemskerk et Dirk Paesmans = “jo” + “di” = Jodi wwwwwwwww.jodi.org/ En 1995, le collectif pionnier du net.art, s'immisce sur le réseau avec jodi.org, une page web qui a l'air de dysfonctionner, code vert sur fond noir qui clignote. Notre premier contact avec l'intrigante entité s'est fait via mail. Les blogs par exemple sont volontiers décrits comme des outils permettant une démocratisation de la parole. «Le but n'est pas de faire peur aux gens, mais c'est souvent la réaction qu'ils ont lorsqu'ils sont confrontés à des événements inattendus » Jodi GeoGoo
