Through the Fresh Tracks Performance and Residency Program, New York Live Arts provides an opportunity for new artistic voices to gain professional experience and recognition. Each year six early career artists are selected by a panel through a live audition process. Artists selected receive research, development, and performance support.

Fresh Tracks engages artists directly with peers, arts professionals and Live Arts staff in dialogues about their work within the context of the professional contemporary dance and performance field. In the spring, following their initial performances, each member of the group receives a 50-hour creative residency along with introductory level professional development workshops in marketing, fundraising and career development.

Lichtspiel: Opus III (1924) is composed from squares, rectangles and other straight-edged forms animated in overlapping, kinetic compositions. The shapes in this film are not solid colors, but graduated tones, and the development of each sequence is built around asymmetrical compositions that break the frame into harmonious sections. The result is dynamic, active: the moving shapes suggest the rapid movement of machinery, pistons. Then in the middle of the film there is a shift towards a bifurcation of the frame and oscillating patterns that rotate around this central axis, before a return to the asymmetry of the machine-like motions. The compositions employed in this film are unique in the 1920s, resembling the later work of Joseph Albers, or, the more contemporary work of Peter Halley in the 1980s.

Color serves a dramatic purpose in this film. Short sections of red and blue alternate towards the end, creating a contrast, but as in Opus II, the whole frame is tinted, and there is no hand-painting. The alternation of monochromatic, colored compositions at the conclusion enables the end to achieve a dramatic resolution that was missing in his earlier films.

This use of color for emphasis will be repeated in his last abstract film, Lichtspiel: Opus IIII (1925).

Elodia
———

Elodia is the sixth album by German duet Lacrimosa.

Elodia is a concept album and a rock opera, divided into three acts. The first act describes a love that is slowly being overwhelmed; the second act describes the act of separation itself, while the third act begins with a requiem, “Sanctus”, before ending on a note of hope.

Elodia was an important point in the development of Lacrimosa’s music into more classical areas, with the London Symphony Orchestra, the Rosenberg Ensemble and the Hamburg State Opera contributing to the orchestral side. “Sanctus” is a particular example of this, as it is based on the Christian liturgy of the same name, and dominated by the choral vocals of the Rosenberg Ensemble. It is not entirely an orchestral work, as it includes a section of Tilo Wolff’s vocals and a guitar solo; it did, however, pave the way for the track “Kyrie” on Lacrimosa’s eighth album Echos, which was entirely a classical work.

The song “The Turning Point” starts with Anne Nurmi saying a small poem in Finnish. The poem is “Poutaiset pilvet haihtuvat. Katoan nopeasti tuulten mukana, kuin tämä uni, jossa en enää sinua tavoita”, and roughly translates to “The white clouds are fading. I disappear quickly with the winds, as this dream, in which I no longer reach you”.

A number of smaller events, workshops, residencies and exhibitions will prequel the main collaborative lab-phase. It is the fourth edition of an intensive two-week transdisciplinary collaboration amongst international and local artists, hackers, activists, scientists, and designers. HackteriaLab 2014 expands on ideas and methodologies about BioArt, DIY biology, Appropriate Technology, ArtScience and BioHacking, developed during the previous versions of HackteriaLab 2011 – Romainmotier and HackteriaLab 2010 – Dock18/Zürich in Switzerland and HackteriaLab_2013_-_Bangalore in India.
Within the framework of “Hackteria | Open Source Biological Art”, the HackteriaLab immersive format plays a key role in experimentation and the development of new models for knowledge sharing and collaboration building, in the emergent artistic practices related to bio- and nanotechnology and science in general.
HackteriaLab, our version of a production workshop, is a form of cultural intervention, contributing to the development of our contemporary culture and art milieu. It creates a melting pot of the practices of art and science, of culture and environment. It aims to broaden the intercultural knowledge exchange and realizes this know-how through workshops, participatory prototype exhibitions and online wiki-like documentations.
HackteriaLab 2014 invites international artists and scientists to collaborate with local communities, which have been intensively working with specific local social and ecological issues in Yogyakarta.

The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard (DSS) has a large number of requirements pertaining to the development and maintenance of payment applications. The requirements span development, maintenance, support, access controls, auditing & logging, security awareness, assessment, and policies. Not only does this apply to the systems within a cardholder environment but also to supporting applications and your organization’s overall SDLC. Furthermore, these application specific requirements are often overlooked or misunderstood by development and information security departments. Within this presentation, we will review the most relevant PCI requirements that developers and application owners must focus on and how your organization can confidently comply.
