John Wild - Invisible Geographies 50MHz-6000MHz-The Conduit

Invisible Geographies 50MHz-6000MHz
Psychogeographical experiments in Dataspace.

Psychogeography : 'The study of the specific effects of the geographical environment, consciously organized or not, on the emotions and behaviour of individuals'.

Dataspace : 'The Unitary study of data as a geographical environment, which unites the social, the immaterial and the virtual dimensions of the spaces constructed from data with the physical and material infrastructures on which they rest'.

:: Network - 20/11/07 ::

A network is any system of interconnected points / locations, nodes, which become greater, augmented, than when in isolation. While emphasis is most often placed on the nodes, it is the connections / links / lines / flows, the spaces between, the hinterland of the network, and their resulting mesh / matrix, which provides the site, means and context for the networks ability to transfer and transform. Similarly art can be thought of as a space in-between:

"The work of art occupies a pivotal point between two sets of behaviour, the artist's and the spectator's. It is essentially a matrix, the substance between. It exists nether for itself nor by itself." (Ascott, R. 2003, Telematic Embrace)

On November 20th 2007 Open Ear (http://openear.wordpress.com/) hosted an event curated by Garrett Lynch (http://www.asquare.org/) entitled Network presenting performances on this theme.
