- W281844807 abstract "National Alliance for Media Arts and Culture Conference Boston August 26-29, 2009 Stand close to the wall of eight images. See eight head shots of Albert Einstein. Walk back 15 paces. Albert transforms into Madonna and Harry Potter. A visual inversion from physics to popular culture, Eight Einsteins; Hybrid Illusions by Aude Oliva, Antonio Torralba, and Amanda O'Keefe was an installation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Museum. The National Alliance for Media Arts and Culture (NAMAG) conference, with the theme of Common Wealth, opened with a reception at this location in which conferees migrated among installations, probing interfaces between new technologies, the body, perception, and data flows. Eight Einsteins stands as a digital trompe l' ocil: it superimposes two images, one at a low spatial frequency and the other at a high spatial frequency. Depending on where you stand, you'll see either Einstein or Madonna--interpretation resides as a function of viewing distance. Einstein inverts into Madonna as distance between the viewer and image increases. The installation becomes a structural metaphor for the entire conference, a system of superimpositions of different spatialities and altitudes of our complex, endlessly inverting, public media ecology. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Similarly, you might, have seen something different depending on where you stood at. the NAMAC conference. The same contrasting perspectives apply to the dichotomy between telecommunications public policy and creative arts. Social media marketing or questions of real, live audiences. Grant funding or business models. Digital possibility or digital divide. The euphoria of the Democratic administration or the uncertainties of the recession. User-generated content or business models for institutional survival. The provocative conference evoked Eight Einsteins by offering a wide range of panels on current telecommunications policy initiatives, social media, and new artistic practices. These panels were jammed, overflowing with conferees Twittering comments and rapidly scribbling notes. However, a smaller spatial configuration also emerged: open space sessions. The NAMAC conference might be the first public media conference to employ this process of like-minded people sitting in a circle, unpacking a topic of mutual, pressing concern through focused conversation. Each session became a brainstorming strategy growing out of the open source community. These pulsed with urgency and newfound community around unresolved issues such as digital exhibition, disabilities, building audiences for events, boards, film festivals, youth media, volunteers, art house challenges, and gaming. The panels and plenarics jumpstarted conferees into battling for net neutrality, broadband access, low-power radio, proactive boards, software development, arts stimulus packages, digital arts, and strategic visioning. Joaquin Alvarado of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting observed that hip-hop has spurred innovations in mobile, social networking, and remix technologies. Harold Feld of Public Knowledge, a Washington, D.C.-based public interest group concerned with citizens' rights in digital culture, pointed out that the United States is the only industrialized country lacking a national broad hand plan. …" @default.
