The smoke is churning out of the virtual offices/studios/labs of [PAM] as we gear up for two simultaneous shows December 7 to 10th 2006 in Miami florida as we take on both Art|BAsel & Scope at the same time *.

As we build new jitter patches, tweaks the data bases, load the [PAM] installation with new video's, there are 200 or so new ones ***, edit the "best-of/demo reel" for Art|Basel **, and code the mobi site...we just want to send out a reminder of events your fellow [PAM] members are involved in and that are happening right now.

We're super happy to see C-TRL Labs get a feature on The Apple Pro web site and even more happy to see they were cool enough to have the article link to back to [PAM]. Thanks Nika and Devan!

Although C-TRL Lab have been a part of the project for a while and live here in NYC we didn't actually meet in person until we ran into them at the Name Festival in Lille France. Experiences like that remind us of the potential of social networks such as [PAM]. We encourage all of our members to link up, network, and contact each other because its surprising what happens there after.

Speaking of the power of social networks - G.H. Hovagimyan will be interviewing/performing with Christina McPhee in what can best be called an Artist Talk at Sara Tecchia Roma New York on November 16th @ 6:30 . We're encouraging everyone to drop what they're doing and attend the event. Both artists are engaged in important dialogues and art practices and their talk/performance should not be missed. Hence the reason why we are announcing this show for a second time. Besides, Sara Tecchia is very cool and her gallery and the surrounding galleries on the same floor of said building are exhibiting some really great work right now. Again, don't miss it, [PAM] will be there so stop by and to meet up with us.

Lastly, send us your announcements and we will do our best to send it out to the group in a timely fashion. You are also welcome to post it in our blog section in . Your [PAM] account allows such things, so please use it. Hint: these controls are on you "user menu" after you log in.

Best Regards,
[PAM] - Chris, Aaron, Raphaele, & Lee

*** new members since August 2006 we'll be contacting you shortly for hi-res versions of your videos.
** Art|Basel selections will be contacted individually.
* There's still time to get in both of these show - upload - or have artists you know join !

OPENING TONIGHT !

Hackworth Ashley: Celebrity Fantasy - 6 -8PM

Ongoing November 1st to the 15th, 2006

Broadway Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of Hackworth Ashley's debut NYC exhibit, curated by Steven Psyllos the exhibition will feature Ashley's controversial "Celebrity Fantasy" series of paintings, as well his video work, photography, music, sculpture and collage. ADHD is the first inkling of the human mind adjusting to the current oversaturation of stimuli in the modern world. The brain is mutating to become equipped to cope and I think the condition should be cultivated, not medicated. "This series of images is a representation of a transformational stage in the things that I make. I spent a long time working on my "Celebrity Fantasy" series but am now exploring a way to envelope everything I do: Music, moving image and still-image making. I'm constantly switching between mediums and am trying to master the art of multi-tasking by harnessing the powers of ADHD. This is a showcase of the different narrative paths that I could take. Being bombarded everyday with a multitude of images, sounds and sensations only makes me want to produce a multitude of images, sounds and sensations." Hackworth Ashley

JUST OPENED, ONGOING, EVERYWHERE, PERPETUAL !?!

Ryan Seslow: The Activation Portals-3 Simultaneous Installations

Apparently there are 3 exhibitions all happening at once. How do we describe this ? It's overwhelming and everywhere. We're sorry to have not gotten this announcement out sooner but we we're really confused.

More interesting is Ryan's "the-rms-movement" which in his own words is described as "the conscious ongoing NOW moment of oneness. Through the thoughts of implied intention,visualization, and the consistant rising of vibration,...as a physical consciousness, the-rms-movement is a multidisciplinary universal awareness co-creating life through the understanding of "We become what we think ". The physical experience is finite, provoking simultaneous aspects of one's self to examine the potentialities of tangible materials in relationship to its surroundings and desires. The ongoing movement serves as a portal to activate and expand the creative potential of every human being it encounters"Here are the exhibition venues:

QCC Art Gallery • CUNY
222-05 56th Avenue
Bayside, NY 11364

Iona College
715 North Avenue

EXCERPTS FROM C-TRL LABS PROFILE ON APPLE - PRO

“We’re keeping one foot in the commercial world and one in the fine art world — we want to go down both roads.”-- Nika Offenbeck.

It goes without saying that the Apple Pro Profile is more-or-less a plug for Apple products but that's not to say the profile should not be read. In fact, there are a lot of juicy nuggets of both tech info dispensed by Devan Simunovich as well as an invauable dialog about approaches to aesthetics and art practice that are described by Nika Offenbac.

Here are some memorable quotes from Nika Offenbac:

About the Microvert series of Animations:

-- “The idea comes from the William Gibson book ‘Pattern Recognition,’ in which a series of single frames, which viewers assume are part of a larger film, are released on the Internet. We’re releasing these tiny films on the Internet so that, over time, people can piece them together and interpret the narrative.”-

- “We’re creating these pieces in no particular order. They’re glimpses of action in moments of time. We don’t have a scripted narrative structure laid out in the usual way, with a plot path that goes from conflict to resolution. Instead, the narrative is associative — the way our minds work. Our films present you with these disparate images and your mind draws together a story based on your own experiences.”

On the Topic of Art and Technology:

-- “In our fast, high-tech world, we tend to deal with representations of things more frequently than we deal with the actual thing. So we like to pull that into question. My own idea of a ‘natural environment’ is a city — like many people, I’m more comfortable on concrete than in the middle of a desert. So this fabricated world has become our natural world. And many of our pieces deal with that.”

ARTIST TALK: Thursday, November 16, 6:30 pm

"Trauma, Performance and Documentary: Christina McPhee in
conversation with G. H. Hovagimyan"

Multimedia artist Christina McPhee talks with G.H. Hovagimyan on performance, site, and ‘bare life’ in new media documentary. Now on view, McPhee’s "La Conchita mon amour" is a study of debris flow and its aftermath, in photography, audio-video installation, drawing and interactive net. G. H. Hovagimyan's video performances update the punk rant aesthetic into live and networked media.
