The Printed Issue

[Space] Welcome to Mediamatic's The Printed Issue. The printed version of this issue was published in October 1999. You can find it at better bookshops worldwide or order directly.

WILLEM VELTHOVEN
Editorial
Since the appearance of issue ZERO in 1985, Mediamatic has stubbornly resisted the disappearance of the book. We have made ever more beautiful, thick and expensive issues.

LUNDSTROM
The craft of architecture has good reason to feel at home on the Web, and if you weren't aware of this yet, then the Californian practice of Lundstrom Associates will show you.

ARIE ALTENA
The browser is dead
The myth of the graphical browser is that it can be used universally. This browser and no other brings the Web home to you as it's meant to be.
ARIE ALTENA (book review)
MORETTI
Atlas of the European Novel 1800-1900
Anyone who's read a lot of novels has doubtlessly pondered the idea of mapping out what happens in these novels: Bloom's ramblings through Dublin, or Julien Sorel's journey through France.
MIKLÓS BEYER
Space Inhaler
He enters a world where his senses of self, otherness, and reality are blurred by the contemplation of internal, ineffable spectacles. He recounts his trip.
OMAR MUÑOZ (book review)
WATSON
Art, Class and Cleavage
Is it an act of foolishness to call for a resurrection of radical Marxist thought in the face of the overwhelming rise of liberalism under the sign of postmodernism?

Edge your Way through Orbital Debris!
Welcome, we have come here to take a closer look at the Earth's immediate surroundings. As you may know, a lot of exciting things have been going on lately in Earth orbit.
JAMIE KING (web review)
UNFAMILIAR-
ART

Some of My Favourite Web Sites are Art describes itself as 'a survey of internet art'. It's a project which employs the spatial metaphor of a notional gallery space to organise a set of hyperlinks to Net-based artworks.
PAUL GROOT (book review)
NIO
You have the right to
remain silent

In retrospect, postmodernism was first and foremost a regressive movement. The discovery that modernism, with its voracious ambition, had literally usurped all the open space available...
NINA POPE (web review)
ATLAS MAGAZINE
In the preamble to Atlas 6, the editors talk of the lure of dynamic html that bought them back to their screens after a summer vacation away. In turn, dynamic html, java, roll-overs, midi, and all manner of other modern Web 'bells and whistles' draw the audience back to this site as well.
OMAR MUÑOZ (book review)
DAVIS
Technosis: Myth, Magic and Mysticism in the Age of Infromation
False gods born from oceans of silicon, whispering cabalistic secrets while battling ancient and not-so-ancient philosophers bleeding demented words of light...
PAUL GROOT
Re-Arch Style figure nr.9

JORINDE SEIJDEL
Theatre and
Emotion in the
Supermarket

In the 1970s, when people still cherished the nineteenth-century illusion of the arts being superior to the obscene economic reality, the supermarket was a popular metaphor for Western consumer culture.
NOORTJE MARRES
Information.
Macht.
Krieg

At 10:00 on Tuesday, Sept. 8, 1998, military experts, media theorists, net activists, scientists and journalists enter a room in the Brucknerhaus in Linz. Ars Electronica, the annual festival for Art, Technology and Society, has invited them to take positions for the next two days on the battlefield of the information war.
PAUL DERKSEN
Forsythe's Image Breaking
Forsythe, William (1949)<9> Became in 1984 artistic director/house choreographer for the Ballett der Städtischen Bühnen >Frankfurt, as the company was then known. Has remained involved with the company ever since, and is artistic manager today.

Some Excursions into Sonic Fiction
A two-step with Kodwo Eshun
PIA KOLWE
Space
The current overuse of the word 'interactivity' indicates both a confusion about its meaning and a desire to exploit the specific capacities of digital media.
PAUL GROOT
All those senselessly
lovely clickable buttons

It's evidently the lot of every new medium: the grabbing desire with which technological opportunity is seized. Hollywood made itself master of the film, Hitler of the radio, advertising took over TV, Microsoft took the Net.
ARIE ALTENA &
GEERT-JAN STRENGHOLT

The Browser is dead
Long live the Stalker

Webstalker is a metabrowser developed in 1995 by i/o/d, a group of English net artists and theorists consisting of Matthew Fuller, Simon Pope and Colin Green.
DIEGO MARANI
Europanto
Diego Marani regularly publishes articles in Europanto. Is this a new artificial language, an alternative to Esperanto? Or could it be the language of the future?

OMAR MUÑOZ (book review)
PEARSON
Germinal Life. The Difference and Repetition of Deleuze
The philosophy of Gilles Deleuze is of the 'end of the line' type. It is the philosophy one inevitably arrives at after the pleasure in pounding away with postmodernism's vandalistic tendencies turns to boredom.
WILLEM VAN WEELDEN (cd-rom review)
MARKER
Immemory One
To each his Madeleine is the slogan with which the aging French filmmaker Chris Marker presents his cd-rom Immemory One
ARJEN MULDER
Trancemedia:
From Simulation to Emulation

Buying an Opel Kadet and converting it into a Saab, a Mini Cooper, an Alfa Romeo Guiletta Sprint Veloce, a daf truck, a city bus, a Smart and a Trabant, but also into a child's scooter, a tricycle, a Solex, a Harley Davidson, a moped and a mountain bike.
OMAR MUÑOZ
Now that our Youth
has been Emulated...

The best starting point from which to understand the impact of emulation is a standard thought experiment: step into the time machine and zap to the year 1983, preferably in the neighbourhood of an arcade where you - in your 1983 version - are throwing your pocket money into all sorts of video games.
Mediamatic Magazine Online was also made possible by the financial support of the Dutch Ministry of Culture.
