Writing & Machine as Sites
As a creative platform, the computer has mainly been imagined for graphics and animated pictures. The Writing Machine Collective edition 2 (WMC_2) opens up the computer's machine capabilities in operating with words, texts and speech, without forsaking the visual. We discover new ways to write playfully via the computer – typing, striking, extracting, overlaying, swaying, walking, and more. Our collective activity invites visitors to partake in the very playful aspects of new media art.
Virtual Exhibition (CALL FOR SUBMISSION!)
DATE: from 14 Jan 2007 onwards
The WMC_2 is now calling for submission of digital works. The submitted work should be text-oriented, or involve the play with words and text in any digital form. It should also be viewable online. There is no restriction on the software / programming language used.
Every work submitted will enter our “Writing Machine Collective” competition automatically, and be showcased on our virtual exhibition until the announcement of award-winning works early July.
Submission deadline: 31 May 2007

另一種場所:書寫、自我衍生的流程
涉及電腦的創作通常局限於純視覺的一類圖像設計。文字機器創作集(第 2 輯)希望打破這個框框,在不放棄視覺觀感的前提下,以電腦作為創意寫作的工具,令寫作變成一項好玩的集體活動,也說明打破作者與觀者界限、打開作品的參與性,不單是新媒體藝術的創作方法,也是新媒體藝術的政治理想。
