Over the last few years, The Great Leap, has become a popular metaphor
to describe the fast-paced modernization process in China. However, in
spite of the turbulent economic growth some domains of Chinese society
have changed very little during the past two decades. Many Chinese have
seen their private freedoms increase significantly. But, critics would
argue that the official policies of =91opening up=92 have neither =
changed
the political system nor the state control of public media. Others
claim that new social spaces have emerged for citizens to voice their
opinion and take action. The use of bottom-up media such as the web,
e-mail and sms have enabled people to self-organize creating a new form
of middle landscape, somewhere between the official media landscape,
and the private sphere. Minor reform rather than total revolution marks
the cautious pace of such development.
Nowhere has this middle landscape become more clear than in the new
forms of media culture that have also exploded in China over the last
few years. Weblogs, bulletinboards, peer-to-peer distribution and
chatrooms have made the traditional sharp division between public and
private lives problematic. While most of the over 100 million Chinese
citizens currently online are using electronic networked media for mere
entertainment, many employ a number of tactics to find or distribute
information outside the official media system. In this middle
landscape, or third places, news ways of constructing identities are
emerging. And while the line between political public sphere and
commercial arena for entertainment is also becoming blurry, new
landscapes for discussion are opened up. Is this the beginning of a
true civil society in China, emerging from these new middle grounds?
Isaac Mao (co-founder Social Brain Foundation, Shanghai) is one of
China=92s earliest and most prolific media activists using blogs as a
grassroots voice-enabling technology and emergent democracy tool. He
divides his time between research, leading the

***Call for Book Contributions and Project Presentations***
SPACE TIME PLAY
Games, Architecture, and Urbanism.
ABOUT SPACE TIME PLAY
What is computer and video game space =96 and: is there an architectural
history of
game space-time? How do architectures, city spaces, and landscapes
change when
they are transformed into physical game boards, or when they become an
extension
of a desktop computer game? How can architects and urban designers
apply games
and game technologies as tools for drafting and planning?
Across 500 pages, the edited book publication Space Time Play will
investigate these
questions by compiling designs, best practice examples, as well as
essays,
interviews, succinct statements, and game space analyses.
The editors have already confirmed contributions to Space Time Play by
internationally renowned theoreticians and practitioners, including:
Gerhard M.
Buurman, Kees Christiaanse, Drew Davidson, Alberto Iacovoni, Jesper
Juul, Heather
Kelley, Neil Leach, Lev Manovich, Jesse Schell, Mark Wigley, and Eric
Zimmerman.
Space Time Play will not only feature these authors, but also aspiring
players from
the fields of architecture, urbanism, game design, game studies, and
the arts. These
researchers and artists will present their thoughts, games, and/or
theme related
works and designs.
The editors are looking for contributions to Space Time Play in the
form of essays,
project descriptions, and statements. We would like to ask potential
contributors to
consider the following questions, which are shaping the three main
sections of Space
Time Play. Please note the submission requirements and procedure in the
bottom of
this call.
1. THE ARCHITECTURE OF COMPUTER AND VIDEO GAMES
A Brief Space Time History of Interactive Entertainment.
Theory:
-In which ways are computer and video games constructed spatially and
architecturally?
-Which games are milestones concerning their spatial quality, and why?
-Which methods of architectural history and theory could be used to
evaluate
the spatial development and spatial quality of computer and video games?
-What is the relationship of game space and game time?
-What kind of experience or method in the field of game design could be
applied to the development and evaluation of architecture and urban
design?
-Which architectural projects should be considered milestones of a new
playful
architecture, and why?
-Which physical architectures have been influenced by computer or video
games?
-In how far do innovations of "real" architecture influence game
architecture,
and vice versa?
-What can architects and level designers learn from one another?
-What kinds of interfaces exist between game design and architectural
design?
Projects:
-You use your game experience to design spaces in the "real" world?
-You are a game designer and your games have been influenced by specific
architectural objects or urban situations in the real world?
We are looking forward to presenting your projects (realized or design
stage,
commercial or artistic).
2. PERVASIVE GAMES
Computerizing Dwellings, Cities, and Landscapes for Play Experiences
The city has always been offering spaces for games and play, for
example stadiums,
coliseums, theaters, playgrounds, or street grid labyrinths. In recent
years, computer
games have progressed beyond the computer desktop and have acquired a
new play
dimension by using areas such as cities, buildings, or parks as playing
fields.
Theory:
-How do mobile games (as well as augmented, hybrid, and mixed reality
play
scenarios) modify the perception and usage of physical space? Whi

both rooted in the geography of Delhi and the nomadism of the web.
They are also the co-founders of the Sarai New Media Lab which serves
as their studio, hosts workshops, and maintains www.sarai.net, an
extensive web site containing essays, discussion groups, and
interactive projects investigating the role of media in our

a project by NOMAD

curated by Basak Senova
31 March 2006 > 2 April 2006

FORUM STADTPARK
Stadtpark 1, A - 8010 Graz
http://www.forumstadtpark.at
The project series, under.ctrl, intends to define the interfaces of
contro
l
mechanisms which systematically compose our lives. Interfaces themselves
have become the locus of control by being more effective than their
underlying mechanisms, yet more invisible and subtle in normalizing such
mechanisms which they veil. They operate in various layers of our daily
perception and realization through the re-designing of life styles;
procedures of auto-control; re-perception of histories; generating modes
fo
r
social psychology; constructing communication channels; and particularly
through technological embodiment. The significant influence of these
interfaces, along with the direction and intensity of implicit and
explicit
acceptance and rejection modes, are being detected and questioned
through
subversive activities and reactions in different forms of expressions by
artistic practices. The project follows an empirical method through
various
researches carried out by different artistic practices focusing on
various
kinds of interfaces of control mechanisms operating in the social,
political, economic, cultural, geo-political, and psychological layers
of
our daily lives. In the same line of thought, this project is also an
attempt to detect tactics and rejection mechanisms along with the off
the
record strategies against the pressures and conditions of these
mechanisms
.
under.ctrl graz launch: interfaces of control mechanisms, which is
planne
d
as an event in process with various performance formats, will put
forward
observations on the various aspects of the mechanisms that control our
lives, in connection with their designed interfaces. Throughout these 3
days, Forum Stadtpark will host sound performances, installations and
screenings of works and documentaries (in a definite time frame with a
controlled and composite schedule) along with a panel that will be
publicized after the event. Therefore, it will operate as a platform of
discussion on how these interfaces are shaped and alter our lives in
different local contexts. loosing.ctrl (Turkish-Israeli project) -as one
of
the sub channels of the series- will also be presented with a screening
programme. under.ctrl graz launch will bring a specific emphasis to the
local context through the works of Austrian artists and a local activist
group.
