En effet, je tiens à rendre hommage à Kaosspat, instigateur de la première heure de ce projet fou que représente Teckyo et qui nous a quitté en Décembre dernier. Pour la première fois depuis presque 20 ans, je ne peux compter sur son aide précieuse. Je suis seule face à cette absence et me revient en mémoire sa bonne humeur, son soutien indéfectible, son humour ainsi que sa folie si particulière. Quand, en 1999, Lucie Association nous a proposé de sortir un fanzine spécialisé en musique électronique, il a, sans hésitation, voulu relever le défi. Il s’est investi sans compter, il a passé un temps précieux au développement du magazine et quand il a fallu faire face à diverses difficultés, il s’est naturellement proposé pour créer le site www.tec- kyo.com. Ceux qui l’ont côtoyé ou croisé en soirées ou en festivals, ont pu mesurer son amour pour la fête et la musique et tous en gardent un souvenir ému. Il aimait à dire : « the show must go on ». Alors continuons à vivre et à profiter pleinement des bons moments que la vie nous offre... Vous trouverez dans cette nouvelle parution, l’interview de Rodrigez Jr que nous suivons depuis le début de son ascension. Citizen Kain et 20syl ont accepté de nous détailler leur projet respectif, étant tous les deux omniprésents dans les soirées et festivals estivaux.

Introduction Recent decades have seen a growth in travel and tourism abroad because of cheap air fares and holiday packages. This has been accompanied by a relaxation of border controls, especially within parts of Europe participating in the Schengen Agreement. As some people may be more inclined to use illicit substances during holiday periods and some may even choose to travel to destinations that are associated with drug use — a phenomenon sometimes referred to as ‘drug tourism’ — this means that from a European drug policy perspective the issue of drug use and travel has become more important. This Thematic paper examines travellers and drug use, with a focus on Europeans travelling within Europe, although some other relevant destinations are also included.

  • Combining Live Coding and Vjing for Live Visual Performance
    CJing: Combining Live Coding and VJing for Live Visual Performance by Jack Voldemars Purvis A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Computer Graphics. Victoria University of Wellington 2019 Abstract Live coding focuses on improvising content by coding in textual inter- faces, but this reliance on low level text editing impairs usability by not al- lowing for high level manipulation of content. VJing focuses on remixing existing content with graphical user interfaces and hardware controllers, but this focus on high level manipulation does not allow for fine-grained control where content can be improvised from scratch or manipulated at a low level. This thesis proposes the code jockey practice (CJing), a new hybrid practice that combines aspects of live coding and VJing practice. In CJing, a performer known as a code jockey (CJ) interacts with code, graphical user interfaces and hardware controllers to create or manipulate real-time visuals. CJing harnesses the strengths of live coding and VJing to enable flexible performances where content can be controlled at both low and high levels. Live coding provides fine-grained control where con- tent can be improvised from scratch or manipulated at a low level while VJing provides high level manipulation where content can be organised, remixed and interacted with. To illustrate CJing, this thesis contributes Visor, a new environment for live visual performance that embodies the practice. Visor's design is based on key ideas of CJing and a study of live coders and VJs in practice.

  • Výroční Zpráva 2018
    Projekt Crossclub byl v roce 2018 podpořen částkou 2 000 000,- od MHMP, 150 000,- od MKČR a 15 000,- od MČP7. CROSSCLUB 2018 Chcete zažít pocit Berlína a nechce se vám jezdit tak daleko? Crossclub v Holešovicích vám to umožní… Klára Nemravová, zpěvačka (zdroj ReFlex) Crossclub je jedinečně koncipované multikulturní centrum, které nabízí skutečnou kříženinu kultur, žánrů a přístupů uprostřed pražských Holešovic. Za svojí jedenáctiletou existenci se nedělitelně zařadil mezi přední pražskou scénu, kde je utvářena velká část alternativní produkce. V současné době je zároveň odbornou i laickou veřejností vnímáno jako spoluurčující v rámci evropského alternativního kulturního dění. Základem dramaturgie je otevřenost různým uměleckým formám – divadlu, hudbě, výtvarnému umění – a jejich vzájemnému propojování. V rámci rozsáhlé mezinárodní spolupráce Crossclub systematicky prezentuje nejnovější trendy v alternativním umění a uvádí na své sceně desítky významných světových umělců, čímž se Crossclub stává důvodem návštěvy metropole i pro stále se zvyšující počet zahraničních turistů, kteří centrum vnímají jako místo reprezentující kreativitu Prahy a České republiky. Neformální prostředí s naprosto unikátním designem obohacuje nabídku společenského a kulturního života v centru Prahy. Program je určený převážně pro mladší a střední generaci, nicméně některé pořady jsou připravované pro děti, mládež, nebo zahraniční návštěvníky Prahy. I díky širokému spektru návštěvníků i různorodé dramaturgii narůstá publicita v domácím tisku, rozhlasu, na webových portálech. Mediální ohlasy zaznamenává multikulturní centrum Cross stále častěji také v zahraničí. Obsah projektu Crossclub 2018 byl souhrnem dílčích dramaturgických bloků, které se vzájemně prolínaly v různých komponovaných a žánrově přesahových projektech mezinárodního významu. Celkem se v Crossu představilo 886 dramaturgických celků, které se konaly na horní stagei, spodní stagei, půdě klubu Cross, kavárně klubu Cross.
