[Xchange] Remix 8.2 and feature on Acoustic Space Lab
REMIX: generate / regenerate / transform
http://www.horizonzero.ca
Welcome to Remix 8.2 and the new, redesigned HorizonZero portal. Our gateway
is easier to access, simpler to navigate, and includes several important
additions. HorizonZero Issues 1-8, and our roundup of news and digital
culture events can now be accessed from our front page. All issues can be
viewed in fully enhanced Flash, or as quick-loading, printer friendly text
versions. And we are proud to launch ZeroHorizon, our new interactive
gallery, built on a growing database of interactive objects including
images, photos, toys, games, video, and audio. We invite you to visit this
brand new play space!
New contributions to Remix 8.2 this month include a rolling wave of hip hop
turntablism featuring Wayde Compton and Jason De Couto; a VJ montage by
Montréal's K-Project; cold war remixes from the Acoustic Space Lab;
Aboriginal hip-hop by War Party with commentary from Shane Breaker;
horizontal photography by M.N. Hutchinson, and scratch video from VJ Pillow.
Plus, essays by Étienne Côté-Paluck, Anne-Marie Boisvert, Bernard Schütze,
Ian Samuels, and Sylvie Parent offer an intelligent cut-up of remix
culture - from the Quebec scene, to commentary on the aesthetics of sampling,
to remixes from outer space.
There's also an opportunity to take part in the mix: With the Remixtifier,
developed by HorizonZero's own Jeff Dawson and Myron Campbell, each visitor
to the site will be able to break apart, collage, and reconstruct a
personalized front page for the Remix issue.
And the mix is moving forward! 8.2.1 features new art by Mitchell Akiyama
and David Clark, and a slice of remix philosophy from übersampler Paul
Miller aka DJ Spooky. Meanwhile, the original Remix feast - all of the
audio, articles, graphics, and clips from Remix 8.1 - are still available
for sampling.
Join the loop - check out Remix 8.2.
