SYDNEY ARTIST FEATURE
______________________________________
:: :: :: :: Winner :: :: :: ::
Winner is Sydney’s own psychotic supergroup covers band. Your favourite pop hits as you’ve never heard them before. Get down to such classics as Bohemian Rhapsody and Tainted Love as performed by a demented Eno-era Roxy Music featuring Sweden, Swerve and Adrian (Spastic Howitzer) Bertram.
______________________________________
:: :: :: :: Peter Newman :: :: :: ::
Peter Newman is an emerging artist based in Sydney who primarily produces time-based works for both installation and performance. His practice is concerned with intuitively drawing from both digital technologies and organic artmaking methodologies in aspiring towards a seamless fluidity of process, ultimately offering an abstract cinema for the ears and eyes. He is driven by a need to explore the complex nature of time and its perception, and to produce work which exists firmly within it, devoid of an abstract critical distance. Newman has performed or exhibited around Australia in varying capacities at the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Canberra Contemporary Art Space, the Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts, the Australian Centre for the Moving Image, the 2004 and 2006 Sydney Big Day Out music festival, and numerous artist-run spaces such as First Draft and Phatspace. Several of his sound and video works travelled to South Korea last year to be part of the Seoul Fringe Festival and Gwangju Biennale.

EXTREME SOUNDS ARTIST FEATURE
______________________________________
:: :: :: :: Runzelstirn and Gurgelstøck :: :: :: ::
Performing at Liquid Architecture 8 in Sydney and Melbourne.
RUNZELSTIRN & GURGLESTOCK is the work of long-running avant-garde
visionary Rudolf Eb.er. Originally emerging from the Swiss
Schlimpfluch group, along with folk such as Joke Lanz (aka Sudden
Infant), RUNZELSTIRN has built quite a reputation for severe
recordings and unpredictable live shows. His is the noise of
spluttering soundscapes, hyperventilating, blood curdling screaming,
gagging, dogs barking, punches, vomiting, whistles, laughs, creaks,
pops and squeals that emerge through the oddly-timed silences. All
this delivered via intense, audience frightening ?aktion? performances
that will undoubtedly shock. See Rudolf?s amazing, disturbing
paintings at his website.

_______________________
:: :: :: :: Dave Phillips :: :: :: ::
Performing at Liquid Architecture 8 in Sydney and Melbourne.
Dave Phillips has been a member of Schimpfluch Gruppe, Fear Of God,
Ohne and Dead Peni. In his solo work he blends together field
recording, real noise, insect recordings, cracked electro acoustic
sound and voice to create extreme computer music, crafting cartoonish
sketches with organic and synthesized sounds, cut and placed in
(seemingly) free-form arrangements. Expect shocking performances
designed to unsettle, disturb and make your skin crawl.

Dave and Rudolf will be performing at Tongue and Groove in Brisbane on

Performing at Liquid Architecture 8 in Melbourne
For a decade Sydney based Lucas Abela (aka Justice Yeldham and the
Dynamic Ribbon Device) has travelled the globe grinding his face into
a sheet of amplified plate glass. As he screams and hyperventilates
onto it and then pulls and squeezes at the sheet, the noise generated
wildly varies and wavers as it is run through some pedals and
processing that results in an orgy of speaker rattling noise. Expect
nausea, saliva, blood, fresh wounds and sickly sounds.

Performing at Liquid Architecture 8 in Sydney
Natasha is a Melbourne musician who combines contrabass and garklein
recorders with electronics to create works which constantly shift
between dialectic extremes; those of frequency, the digital and the
bodily and the processed and the instrumental. Appearances in 2006
ranged from the Festival Musiques Innovatrices (France to the Skopje
Summer Festival (Macedonia) and the OFF Film Festival (Brisbane).

Through the magic of mirrors, multiple projectors and highly ingenious

accompanied by a live soundtrack of tape fragments and ancient
synthesiser sounds. These three collaborators, Jérôme Noetinger,
Christophe Auger and Xavier Quérel, have worked together for ten
years, and have succeeded in pushing the boundaries of film and
soundtrack into the realm of live performance.

SEMINAR
Digital Democracy Unpacked: A Critical Mapping of Five Ideal Typical Discourses
Dr Lincoln Dahlberg, School of Journalism and Communications
The University of Queensland
When: 1 June, 5-6.30pm
Where: UTS Broadway, Building 3, Level 2 (Room 210)
Digital democracy has become an increasingly popular topic among
academics, political commentators, and policy makers: there is much
talk about the potential of the Internet and other digital media
enhancing democracy. There has also been plenty of action, with
governments, civic organizations, universities and activists,
investigating this potential and supporting digital democracy
initiatives. All this commentary, research, policy making, and project
work draws on a diversity of understandings of digital democracy.
However, there is a lack of resources that clearly outline and examine
this diversity. This paper undertakes an ideal-typical reading and
critical evaluation of five digital democracy discourses and their
variations, with the aim of bringing attention to the range of
possibilities for democracy supported by digital media, and the
advantages and disadvantages of these different possibilities.
Lincoln is a post-doctoral research fellow in the School of Journalism
and Communication at The University of Queensland. He is co-editor of
the journal New Zealand Sociology and of the collection Radical
Democracy and the Internet (Palgrave, June 2007). Lincoln’s current
research involves a critical investigation of the practices and
meanings surrounding Internet use, with particular focus on the
extension of democratic cultures. He can be contacted at:

I was walking back to work from Chinatown after lunch this arvo when a woman came up to me and said that her car was out of petrol and that she didn’t have any money on her. She said she was up here from Melbourne to do a flight attendants course. There was something about the way she kept apologizing that got my sympathy. I gave her $60 which she promised she’d return to me at work tomorrow. Do you reckon she will? We’ll see…
