Facebook Kullanıcı Emeği Canlandırmaları, New York, 2009

Facebook User Labor Enactments is a new live performance by Ursula Endlicher which uses ULML code (=User Labor Markup Language) as choreography. In the performance on November 13, five performers and the audience will together shape the course of the show.

Using Burak Arikan’s newly developed ULML-based software application which collects user activity on Facebook, the performance will combine this online information as well as audience submitted ideas right on stage. The public is invited to add movement directions to a database which will be used by the dancers during the show. The audience can also try out their own movements of the ULML language!

Facebook User Labor Enactments is a collaborative event breaking down boundaries between user and consumer, performer and audience, and is driven by a continuous exchange between Web and body.

STK Ağ Haritalama Atölyesi, Paris

Bu haftasonu Paris’de Fransa’dan ve Türkiye’den 30 Sivil Toplum Kuruluşu (STK) ile Ağ Haritalama Atölyesi yapıyoruz. İstanbul Bilgi Üniversitesi’nin düzenlediği Sivil Toplum Atölyeleri serisinin ilki Mayıs 2009′da İstanbul’da yapılmıştı. Bu çalışmada ağlı yapıların analizi üzerine bir ders verilmişti ve STKlardan gelen temsilciler kendi alanlarından –göç, insan hakları, ayrımcılık gibi konularda– ağ haritaları çıkartarak kağıt üzerinde diyagramlar oluşturmuşlardı. İstanbul Atölyesi sonrası bu haritalar detaylandırıldı ve 19-20 Eylül Paris’de tartışılmak üzere bilgisayarda ağ haritaları oluşturuldu.

Meta-Control, TimeWarp 2009

Two years ago at TimeWarp we performed the Meta-Control set for the first time. Since then it’s been developed further, practiced more, and forked to various versions. Today we will perform these fresh Meta-Control pieces at TimeWarp 09 on a bright LCD screen setup.

Also as part of the TimeWarp Festival we participated in the panel Forum Kreative Stadt where we discussed how Ali Demirel and I did long-distance collaboration while building the Meta-Control set. It was moderated by Bernd Fesel. Other participants included Gerfried Stocker of Ars Electronica, Kai Beiderwellen, Jochen Hörisch, Monika Fleischmann, and Wolfgang Strauss.

Photographs from last night’s image check at the venue.
