Subject: ::fc-announce:: February on -empyre-: Geert Lovink and Trebor Scholz discuss networks, art and collaboration
February on -empyre-:
networks, art & collaboration
With Geert Lovink and Trebor Scholz
collaboration
1. United labour, co-operation; especially in literary, artistic,
or scientific work.
2. specifically Traitorous cooperation with the enemy.
--Oxford English Dictionary, Online Edition
Rarely does a word contain within it such positive and negative
connotations. The history of collaboration reflects this duality.
Wordsworth and Coleridge, Fluxus, Wiki, Blogging, the organization of the
WTO protests, the rise of Nazism in pre-WWII Germany and surrounding
states, and the actions of the recent US-led "coalition" in Iraq
demonstrate positive and negative aspects of collaborative effort.
-empyre-, in cooperation with the conference on networks, art, &
collaboration (http://www.freecooperation.org), welcomes Geert Lovink and
Trebor Scholz, as they discuss the complexity, challenges and rewards of
collaboration both off and on-line.
