INSTITUTIONS, AUTONOMY, ALTERNATIVE(S)

9:30-10:15 Overview presentation of funding institutions and alternatives
Nina Czegledy, Eric Kluitenberg

10:15-14:30 Scales: Big institutions > > > newly established spaces
Moderators: Joanne Richardson & Maria Riskova

Is big bad, and small beautiful? An "institution," true to its etymological significance, is an act of founding, which can also be an act of self-founding. Are institutions necessarily bureaucratic bodies? When does an institution become a bureaucracy-does it have to do with the size of its organization, the duration of its existence?

17:00-21:00 Models: "Occupation," sponsorship, self-sustainability
Moderators: Zeljko Blace & Micz Flor

MONDAY, Sept 10

COMMUNITIES, SOCIAL SPACE, TERRITORY

9:30-14:30 Service > Content > Community
Moderators: Zeljko Blace & Armin Medosch

What service do servers provide--does the service create a content, does content automatically create a community? What is the content of listservs--the act of communication itself? How do alternative broadcasting systems create new public spheres? How "global" are virtual communities? Are they self-sufficient without the periodic organization of meetspaces?

1. Presentations/discussions:
Walter van der Crujisen, Desk.org (NL), Ricardo Dominguez, Thing (US), Alex Galloway, Rhizome (US), Heath Bunting, Irational (UK), Hans Bernhard, Silver Server (AT), Spela Kucan, Ljudmila (SI), Balazs Beothy

Moderators: Eric Kluitenberg & Joanne Richardson

The re-emergence of boundaries. Do regional networks transcend isolation or reaffirm it in a regional context? Independent spaces founded as/with specific projects for minorities...

(Presentations: Heath Bunting, Kristian Lukic, Balazs Beothy, Simon Worthington, Micz Flor, Patrice Riemens, Eric Kluitenberg)

Production
Does net space represent a transformation of commodity logic and its inherent separation between production, distribution, and consumption? How does the influence of sponsorship affect the mode of production of digital media? What is the value of collaboration and the possible convergences between art, activism, education, technology?

Distribution
Is net distribution a way of bypassing intermediaries? How do venues and spaces influence the content and presentation of net projects? Is the internet a communication medium rather than a venue?

Consumption
In what ways has the net transformed the relations of ownership and copyright. Copyleft and open source as new paradigms of a gift economy?

Form/Function/Technology
(Zoran Pantelic, Christoph Kummerer, Marek Tuszynski TBC)

Database
(Manu Luksch, Tomax Kaulmann & Frank Kunkel, …)

Has the dominance of the database model produced a new ontology, a paradigm shift replacing the old narrative perceptual apparatus that was a legacy of film? Convergences of film and database, models of digital archives, database driven servers …

Pixel Publishing
(Slavo Krekovic, 3/4 review (SK), Lina Dzuverovic Russel, Mute/Metamute (UK), Ranka Mullerova, Umelec (CZ), Armin Medosch, Telepolis (DE))

How do web magazines reproduce and/or transcend the form and uni-directionality of print media? In the convergence between internet and print media what new models can be produced that are specific to the (so-called) open, decentralized nature of net.space?
