Media Art History offers a basis for attempting an evolutionary history of the audiovisual media, from the Laterna Magica to the Panorama, Phantasmagoria, Film, and the Virtual Art of recent decades. This panel tries to clarify, if and how varieties of Media Art have been splitting up during the last decades. It examines also how far back Media Art reaches as a historical category within the history of Art, Science and Technology. This session will offer a first overview about the visible influence of media art on all fields of art.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><em>Speakers:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">Gunalan_Nadarajan :\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Gunalan_Nadarajan.pdf\">Islamic Automation: A Reading of al-Jazari\u00b4s <em>The Book Of Knowledge Of Ingenious Mechanical Devices <\/em>(1206)<\/a> <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">OLIVER GRAU: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/grau_abstract.htm\">REMEMBER THE PHANTASMAGORIA!<br \/>\nVirtual Art of the 19th century and its future<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/grau_abstract.htm\"><\/a><\/span>MARIO CARPO: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/Mario_Carpo.pdf\">The Demise of the Identicals Architectural Standardization in the Age of Digital Reproducibility<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"color: #009900; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">11:05am -11:20am<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><br \/>\n<strong>Coffee break<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"color: #009900; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">Plenary (11:20am &#8211; 1:10pm, Max Bell Aud.)<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"color: #009900; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\">London 6:20pm, Moscow 9:20pm, (fri)Tokyo 2:20<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><strong>Session II: Methodologies (Chairs: Mark Hansen and Erkki Huhtamo)<\/strong><br \/>\nThis session tries to give a critical overview of which methods art history has been using during the past to approach media art.

How do we reconcile a top-down, functional view of cognition with a view of human beings as elements of a culturally shaped biological world? Current scientific investigations into autopoiesis, emotion, symbolization, mind-body relations, consciousness, &#8220;mental representations&#8221;, visual and perceptual systems \u2026open up fresh ways of not only figuring the self but of approaching historical as well as elusive electronic media &#8211;again or anew&#8211;from the deeper vantage of an embodied and distributed brain.

It is a &#8220;refreshed&#8221; look at how traditional forms of new media work such as interactive install-ations, interfaces, software, responsive performances, immersive spaces, and the world wide web have been explored through BNMI&#8217;s programming in terms of broader questions of economics, politics, social rela-tions, public space, memory, leisure, contemporary art, and what it means to be human as we increasingly become machine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><span style=\"color: #009900; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">Plenary (8:45am &#8211; 10:45am, Max Bell Aud.)<span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><br \/>\nLondon 3:45pm, Moscow 6:45pm, Tokyo 11:45pm<\/span><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><strong>Session VI: Collecting, Preserving and Archiving the Media Arts<br \/>\n(Chair: Steve Dietz) <\/strong><br \/>\nCollections grow because of different influences such as art dealers, the art<br \/>\nmarket, curators and currents in the international contemporary art scene.<br \/>\nWhat are the conditions necessary for a wider consideration of media art<br \/>\nworks and of new media in these collections?<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><em>Speakers:<\/em><\/span>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/paul_bio.html\">CHRISTIANE PAUL:<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/paul_abstract.html\">The Myth of Immateriality &#8211; Presenting &amp; Preserving New Media <\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/weibel_bio.htm\">PETER WEIBEL:<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/weibel_abstract.htm\">The Migration and Preservation of Media <\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/ippolito_bio.htm\">JON IPPOLITO:<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/ippolito_abstract.html\">Creative Networks: Frictionless or Regulated?<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"color: #009900; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">10:45am -11:00am<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><br \/>\n<strong>Coffee break <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"color: #009900; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">CONCURRENT SESSION 1 (11am -1:00pm, Max Bell Aud.)<\/span> <span style=\"color: #009900; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><br \/>\nLondon 6pm, Moscow 9pm, (sat)Tokyo 2am<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><strong>Session VII: Database\/New Scientific Tools<br \/>\n(Chairs: Rudolf Frieling and Oliver Grau)<\/strong><br \/>\nAccessing and browsing the immense amount of data produced by individuals, institutions, and archives has become a key question to our information society.

The distinction between artist and recipient has also become blurred. Most recently, the digitalization of our society has sped up this process enormously. In principle, more and more artworks are no longer bound to a specific place and can be further developed relatively freely. The cut-and-paste principle has become an essential characteristic of contemporary culture production. The spread of access to the computer and the internet gives more people the possibility to participate in this production. The panel examines concrete forms, as for example computer games, determining the cultural context and what consequences they could have for the understanding of art in the 21st century.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><em>Speakers:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/kusahara_bio.html\">MACHIKO KUSAHARA:<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/kusahara_abstract.html\">Technology as Art: &#8216;Device Art&#8217; as a New Japanese Paradigm<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/lange_bio.htm\">ANDREAS LANGE:<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/lange_abstract.htm\">Archiving of Computer Games<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/keifer-boyd_bio.htm\">KAREN KEIFER-BOYD:<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/keifer-boyd_abstract.htm\">Computer Games: Art in the 21st Century<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/crockett_bio.htm\">TOBEY CROCKETT: <\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/crockett_abstract.htm\">An Aesthetics of Play &#8211; or, How to Appreciate Interactive Fun<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/tribe_bio.htm\">MARK TRIBE:<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediaarthistory.org\/refresh\/Biographies\/tribe_abstract.htm\">Open Source Culture<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"color: #009900; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">1:00pm &#8211; 2:00pm<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><br \/>\n<strong>Lunch break<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #009900;\">Poster Session<\/span><\/strong><\/span><span style=\"color: #009900; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"> (2:00pm &#8211; 4:00pm)<\/span> <span style=\"color: #009900; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><br \/>\nLondon 9pm, Moscow 12am, (sat)Tokyo 5am<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;\">Experts of the field will be invited to present their research visually.

Through these sessions we hope to construct the histories, influences and parallels to new media art and even the definitions of what constitutes new media from varied cultural perspectives. For example, how what are the impacts of narrative structures from Aboriginal and other oral cultures on the analysis and practice of new media? How do notions of identity shift across cultures historically, how are these embedded and transformed by new media practice? What philosophical perspectives can ground our understandings of new media aesthetics?

London 4:20pm, Moscow 7:20pm, Tokyo 12:20am Session I: MediaArtHistories: Times &amp; Landscapes 1 (Chairs: Oliver Grau and Gunalan Nadarajan ) After photography, film, video, and the little known media art history of the 1960s-80s, today media artists are active in a wide range of digital areas (including interactive, genetic, telematic and nanoart). Media Art History offers a basis for attempting an evolutionary history of the audiovisual media, from the Laterna Magica to the Panorama, Phantasmagoria, Film, and the Virtual Art of recent decades. This panel tries to clarify, if and how varieties of Media Art have been splitting up during the last decades. It examines also how far back Media Art reaches as a historical category within the history of Art, Science and Technology. This session will offer a first overview about the visible influence of media art on all fields of art.

How do we reconcile a top-down, functional view of cognition with a view of human beings as elements of a culturally shaped biological world? Current scientific investigations into autopoiesis, emotion, symbolization, mind-body relations, consciousness, &#8220;mental representations&#8221;, visual and perceptual systems \u2026open up fresh ways of not only figuring the self but of approaching historical as well as elusive electronic media &#8211;again or anew&#8211;from the deeper vantage of an embodied and distributed brain. Papers that struggle concretely to relate and integrate aspects of the brain basis of cognition with any number of pattern-making media are solicited to stimulate debate.

Do artists still contribute anything &#8220;new&#8221; to those fields of research &#8211; and did they ever in history? Which inventions changed the arts as well as technology and the media? These questions will be discussed in a frame from the 19th century until today, special foci of interest are: &#8211; modernism and the birth of media technology 1840 &#8211; 1880 &#8211; the utopia of merging art and technology in the 1920s and 1960s &#8211; the crisis of the &#8220;new&#8221; vs. digital media art innovations since the 1980s Speakers: DIETER DANIELS: Art as Research \/ Artists as Inventors CHRIS MEIGH-ANDREWS: Richard Monkhouse &amp; Peter Donebauer, and Development of the EMS Spectron and the Videokalos Image Processor FRED TURNER: Where Cybernetics Met The Counterculture: The Us Company SIMON PENNY: Bridging Two Cultures: Towards an Interdisciplinary History of the Artist-Inventor and the Machine Artwork CORNELIUS BORCK: Going Beyond the Body&#8217;s Limits: Raoul Hausmann&#8217;s Art of Prosthetic Perception CONCURRENT SESSION 2 (4:25pm-6:25pm, Max Bell Aud.) London 11:25pm, (fri)Moscow 2:25, (fri)Tokyo 7amSession V: MediaArtHistories: Times and Landscapes 2 (Chairs: Edward Shanken and Charlie Gere) Although there has been important scholar-ship on intersections between art and tech-nology, there is no comprehensive techno-logical history of art (as there are feminist and Marxist histories of art, for example.) Canonical histories of art fail to sufficiently address the inter-relatedness of develop-ments in science, technology, and art. What similarities and differences, continuities and discontinuities, can be mapped onto artistic uses of technology and the role of artists in shaping technology throughout the history of art? This panel seeks to take account of extant literature on this history in order to establish foundations for further research and to gain perspective on its place with respect to larger historiographical concerns.
