Stasisfield founder john kannenberg presents signed limited edition archival prints of selected images from his ongoing explorations of digital image composition. Painstakingly crafted, these images are derived from conventional drawings on paper and digital photography that is digitally manipulated using some of the same principles john applies to the sonic material in his music: repetition, reduction, phasing, fading and reverberation.

I am a big fan of the art of Tony Scott. For the first time I read the term Glitch Art at his great webpage beflix.com. After that visit I started to looking on the web for other stuff like his. Here are links to artists I like, not all of them are necesarely glitch, some of them are maybe called minimal or abstract. I don't like creating categories, so let's just say it's stuff I like.
Measures how a society ranks on a spectrum stretching from democracy to despotism. Explains how societies and nations can be measured by the degree that power is concentrated and respect for the individual is restricted. Where does your community, state and nation stand on these scales?

new sounds from the musically and internationally displaced "The Festival will be, for the fifth time, a forum and arena for musicians, composers and performers who consciously stand outside any definable category or scene. Their "stylistic exile" corresponds to a quasi nomadic lifestyle that constantly serves to re-define artistic creativity.
The music may refer to western classical or non-european traditions, to jazz, noise, ambient rock or to pop orientated music, be it composed or improvised, acoustic or electronic."
Taken from the homepage of the refering homepage. Didn't listen to the offered MP3s yet, don't know most of the artists, but I defenetly will listen to those tracks/songs.
The navigation oh the webpage is very bad, for the mp3s you have to go to the sub-pages for each year and the go to the artist pages.
„They have the all the trappings of an electronica outfit—the name, the album title (Rec.Extern), the lineage (previous releases on Mego and Rhiz), the black Powerbook, and the Vienna address. But Radian is two-thirds of a jazz band—with members on drums and upright bass alongside synthesizer and laptop. That makes Thrill Jockey a fitting home, where labelmates Tortoise and Chicago Underground also work the tension between the crackle and the hum." David Krasnow, Village Voice, 2002
Zeena Parkins sits firm as a multi-instrumentalist, composer, improviser, well-known as a pioneer of the electric harp, she has also extended the language of the acoustic harp with the inventive use of unusual playing techniques, preparations, and layers of digital and analog processing.
Ikue Mori has long been a stalwart of the New York improvisation via the post punk set. Her work has seen her evolve from drums to drum machine to laptop - how about that? Super. As a result the language she presents is as diverse as the wide range of people she has played with. Taken from Mego.at
Now, these two swinging cats have hooked up too create a delicate blend of organic acoustic and digital sources.
I knew that Blixa Bargeld did read from the catolog of Hornbach, a german home improvement retailer, but didn't know the readings, made to lure the german youth into the shops, are availible to download! More info, german
One of new wave's most innovative and (for a time) successful bands, Devo was also perhaps one of its most misunderstood. Formed in Akron, OH, in 1972 by Kent State art students Jerry Casale and Mark Mothersbaugh, Devo took its name from their concept of "de-evolution" -- the idea that instead of evolving, mankind has actually regressed, as evidenced by the dysfunction and herd mentality of American society.

Like posted before, I am a big fan of EC Brown's MP3 link archive. I'd like to be notified everytime his webpage is updated, but he doesn't offer a service like that.
If you are using the superior browser Firefox, then you are lucky, because firefox can keep track of updates made to webpages and notify you, if updates are made.
To do like so, (1.) bookmark the specific webpage, right click on it and choose PROPERTIES (2.) Select SCHEDULE and choose a time. During this time firefox will check the selected page for updates. The time span should be a span while you are usually online (of course) (3.) Select NOTIFY and choose the notification method, I am using "display an alert", which will open a little window showing something like " webpage xyz.com has ben updated, would you like to go there?"
