Dislocate is a project which examines the relationship between art, technology and locality.
Designed to facilitate international dialogue between artists, researchers and the public, Dislocate encourages exchange and reflection upon our experiences and perceptions of the interplay between these elements.
Dislocate questions our notions of place and location in the face of perpetual motion through multifaceted environments. The velocity of this passage is accelerated through new technologies, but as a result how does this impact upon our encounter with place and our attempt to communicate this to elsewhere?
Through an exhibition, symposium and workshop series Dislocate will examine this encounter and communication, taking a journey through surrounding spaces and exploring our transient connections.
Excelled through so many spaces with such momentum, mobility brings freedoms but also responsibilities. While in this state of passage how do we decide which spaces to engage with and what is our dialogue with them?
Dislocate offers the space to investigate the creative and social potential of new media to engage us with our direct locality and to ask what is the importance of where we are now?

"Trebuchet MS"">Cellsbutton is a way of
introducing a new concept and perspective on art and technology to the
cultural framework of Indonesia. The festival intends to relate this to
both national and international developments within the field of media
arts. In HONF perspective, (digital) technologies offer a lot of
creative possibilities, in daily life as well as in art and cultural
practices. So far, extensive investigations of this potential of
technology within Indonesia – and the Yogyakarta context – have been
few. Therefore, the objective of the Cellsbutton is to establish
connections and interactions between communities, creators and artist
with interest in media art.

Del 18 al 21 de setembre amb l'Associació Cultural OKNO organitzem el
Festival SURPAS -Cultura lliure i popular- a PORTBOU. Aniré informant
de com avança aquest quixotada entranyable. De moment, el programa és
molt bo. Penjaré la informació en breu pels amics que passeu per aquí.

En aquesta época que ens ha tocat viure, on la llibertat a les xarxes es possa cada vegada més en entredit, i organitzacions  com la SGAE i les seves variants, no paren d´ intentar bloquejar webs i servers, m´han sobtat especialment les declaracions que ha fet Sir Tim Berners-Lee, creador del World Wide Web, on demanar a governs i demes artefactes de control que deixin als internautes tranquils en un dels pocs espais de llibertat que encara ens resten.

Declaracions del calibre de : la importancia de que Internet sea "neutra" radica en que "es una infraestructura fundamental para la libertad y la democracia" o el "riesgo" de que tanto "los gobiernos como las grandes empresas"
intenten controlar la tecnología de la red de redes "siempre existe",
por lo que ha incidido en que la sociedad debe defender una Red
"neutra".
