Jakeelliott votes to KEEP Listservosphere on Wikipedia
Jakeelliott votes to KEEP Listservosphere on Wikipedia:
"# Keep the guide states that coining neologisms is not allowed, but this neologism was coined on june 18, 2005 as is recorded in the -empyre- archives as linked above by the author. therefore it is not being coined here but rather being recorded & explained here. it will be verifiable by context as soon as google catches up with -empyre-'s archives.--Jakeelliott 19:48, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)"
very cool. the pt about FreshMintCoinAge occurring on -empyre- rather than Wikipedia should help the case for KEEPing Listservosphere on Wikipedia.

MBM!
i just grabbed tix 2 MBM aka Meat Beat Manifesto @ the Metro CHI IL .US for the (only) show on WED 2005.06.22 @ 9 PM.
IF you are into realtime audio-video work pforms, origins + dev of electro, idm + gabba [+/or] the influences of contemporary free jazz [experimentation/improvisation] on digital musics, THEN this show is a MUST!
4 reels to reels.
"Bionic Dolphin" @ WIRED NextFest
i am psyched 2 see the Bionic Dolphin (which isn't technically either Bionic or a Dolphin) @ WIRED NextFest. the SunTimes reports:
"Bionic dolphin -- This personal watercraft, with driver inside, can submerge, leap and perform barrel rolls. It will perform in the Chicago River at the Michigan Avenue bridge at 9 a.m. next Thursday."
so i guess i will have to be on the Mich Ave Bridge @ 9 AM on 2005.06.23 to see the "Bionic Dolphin" swim...
i <3 timeTravel @ WIRED NextFest
i just registered for + got confirmation on my entry to the free edu day (FRI 2005.06.23) @ WIRED Magazines NextFest @ Navy Pier, Festival Hall A, CHI IL .US warez WIRED says they "look forward to showing you the future". i <3 timeTravel.
if you are an edu'r or a student, you can also reg for the free edu day (FRI 2005.06.23) @ http://www.nextfest.net/ a rather ack'y designed www site heavy on the Flash based GUI + navi circa 2002. the future is so 2002... :)

Rosalind -> Listservosphere
i just posted Listservosphere to furtherfield.org's Rosalind, an upstart new media art lexicon. Listservosphere is immediately [available/active/added] {in|to} Rosalind + is wonderfully nestled between ListAngst ++ loiber. i <3 Rosalind!
Urban Dictionary -> Listservosphere
earlier today i created the following entry on Urban Dictionary for Listservosphere:
"listservosphere
The collective listserv, listserve or list community.
The listservosphere gained considerable attention during the last Presidential Campaign
Source: jonCates, Jun 19, 2005"
the entry has been "Confirmed" + "will be reviewed"...
my VOTE to KEEP Listservosphere on Wikipedia
in order to respond to sum (possible) Wikipedia reasons for dlt'n Listservosphere (?) i posted the following VOTE to KEEP Listservosphere to the Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion/Listservosphere:
so far the votes are 3 to 1 in favor of dlt'n w/my 1 vote for KEEP'n Listservosphere. the voting process lasts 5 days + as Wikipedia says: Wikipedia_is_not_a_democracy. the discursive action + exchange is more heavily weighted than the actual voting, so if you have an opin, QWERTY up.
sum (possible) Wikipedia reasons for dlt'n Listservosphere (?)
after posting to MySpace about voting to KEEP Listservosphere, i remembered a section from the Wikipedia:Guide_to_Votes_for_deletion that might apply. the Wikipedia:Guide_to_Votes_for_deletion states:
"Another tactic is to enlist the aid of friends and colleagues outside of Wikipedia that have a vested interest in the article to come to Wikipedia and vote (such as posting in a web discussion forum a call for other forum members to "come and help keep our discussion forum in Wikipedia"). Tell-tale signs of these tactics are that a contributor's account was created after discussion began, that a contributor has few edits (or has only ever edited the article being discussed and the discussion page itself), or that a contributor's only other edits have been vandalism."
afterall, Listservosphere is a neologism ++ probably can't be verified. these factors may constitute grounds for dlt'n the entry anyways...

webcam art, newMedia sculpt, casemod2001 or hardwarehybrid2001...?
Q: is it webcam art, newMedia sculpture, casemod2001 or hardwarehybrid2001?
A: aweSum!
this aweSum [hack/mod/merge/hybrid] of HAL 9000 ++ Logitech QuickCam Orbit webcam from Ethan & Sarah's home > Other >The Birth Of The Hal Webcam strikes me as a perhect match for a newMedia project on distributed consciousness or a web-based performative remix of 2001 or streaming lullabies from criminally insane AI systems.

@ the Share, Share Widely conference in NYC NY .US on 2005.05.06, McKenzie Wark positioned Karl Marx as a blogger during his [presentation/discussion] w/Stanley Aronowitz:
i <3 these kinds of statements b/c they are literal attempts @ prehystoricizing new media while i remain skeptical about potential truth values (aka accuracy) or the mirad ways they support strains of western {philosphic|ideological} [+/or] patriarchal tendencies + narratives.
kraftwerking
yes, kraftwerk plays CHI IL .US tonite + i am looking _very_ fwd. apparently they will be playing laptops + not the model shown above. still, i will keep my digits crossed for classic systems + maybe even robots, i.e.
rather than vectors, i.e.
digits crossed: 0 X 1.
