Program of the day: http://variable.constantvzw.org/

Last November, I went to Paris, with Femke Snelting for Constant, to interview Evan Roth about his Graffiti Markup Language (GML). It's an open format, based on XML, to describe graffiti movements. Based on this "simple" gesture of setting up a standard, possibilities are endless: unique graffiti's are now reproducible; what could be a digital graffiti, what are its aesthetics, its stakes?

Here are 3 projects I found the most interesting:

• The Eyewriter was created for Tempt1, a famous graffiti writer, publisher and activist, now paralized, for him to be able to make graffiti again.
• The Printball inkjet printing by Benjamin Gaulon.
• Obama writes for you

Obama says Hello World"

Repost from the lab2lab website

This expression of concern will be sent to the members of the European Parliament and members of the national parliaments of the signatories.

The initiative to write this expression of concern was taken by the members of the following organisations: Medialab-Prado (Madrid), Kitchen Budapest (Budapest), Constant (Brussels) and PING (Nantes). These European medialabs collaborate in LABtoLAB, a two year programme of collective reflection on informal learning. LABtoLAB is supported through the European Commission’s Lifelong Learning Programme Grundtvig.

The LABtoLAB network aims to create a platform for:

• Sharing experiences and ways of doing, by studying specific cases,
• Exploring the role of the lab in offering spaces for collaborative learning and knowledge exchange,
• Examining the possibilities of life-long learning in the context of the lab.

The project builds on our belief in:

• Open sharing of knowledge,
• The use of Free Software tools,
• The freedom of participation in the organization of culture and society.

The Directorate-General for Trade of the European Commission defines Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) in these terms: The EU's objective with ACTA partners is to have a new plurilateral treaty improving global standards for the enforcement of IPR, to more effectively combat trade in counterfeit and pirated goods.

We have sent you this statement because we have become convinced that the measures evoked by the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement will make our work harder, less efficient and sometimes even impossible. As our practice is funded and supported by the European Commission, and by many major cultural organisations in member states[*], we believe that it would be counterproductive if the EU adopts laws which have a direct negative impact on the same activities they validate through their support.

In this document we try to explain aspects of our work and the negative impact that the adoption of the ACTA would have on it. We hope you find enough reasons for not supporting the ratification of the treaty.

Not so much time to blog since workshop at Royal College of Art with OSP (collaborative layout design, revival of Gill Sans to celebrate Eric Gill falling into the public domain hole), and 2 weeks of workshop with OSP in Vietnam (Saigon and Cấn Thơ).

Better is to talk about these live on Saturday during our atelier's Open Day. We are doing a print party along other performances and exhibitions by our studiomates: Maya Dalinsky, Mathias Koole, Dorothé Depeauw, Lot Jansen, Tine Ringelé, Peter Cserba.
