Move from Vienna to Berlin: Feb/March 2002.

I continue to work on o0oo respectively the first o0oo long film production 'Kartonage' as well as other artistic projects in Berlin – as well as the experimental studies of Digital Arts/Media Design (Peter Weibel, Thomas Fuerstner, Karel Dudesek) through a scholarship from the University of Arts (UdK/HdK) Berlin (Visual Communication, Joachim Sauter).

Presumed length of stay: 3 years.

Diverse project/workshop/work relationships in Vienna remain in tact ...

Starting immediately all five video clips from the completed project "Freeze" (1999) can be also watched on PalmOS PDAs!

The clips can be downloaded in three appropriate Palm versions (grey/color/clié).
To play the clips, the free gMovie Player 2.0 (or higher) is required.

The Lauda Air Inflight Magazine up writes about me in their current issue under the title "einfach flashig" [edition topic: "cool"]. The small portrait names Ger Ger aka Gerhard Schwoiger in conclusion as "one of the most direct artists" ...

Freeze Soundproject on the LAB-AC.AT compilation and in MUMOK.

The Freeze Soundproject - which arose as part of the commerce vs. art project "Freeze" in the last year - can now be found on the first LAB-AC.AT audio compilation 01.

Exhibition
It can also be (seen)/heard at the exhibition MOVING OUT from June 29 to July 8, 2001: at the Museum moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien, MuseumsQuartier.

Sponsoring: video streaming and wireless broadband for the o0oo film production.

The sponsoring will be overtaken from culture.vbs i.e. Silver Server.

The meaning for o0oo: live streams from the film location and interaction through o0oo.net to the set will be possible! Wireless connections for sets in Vienna, real video server (unlimited bandwidth!), public downloads of set recordings also available on demand ...

Annotation
Silver Server already supports the project Netdump. Many thanks for the friendly collaboration.

Amendment April 2005
The o0oo film production was in the meantime given the name Kartonage. o0oo.net will be integrated into the platform v-a-m-p.com. The name o0oo and the URL remain in existence solely for the developing technical system.

Due to the change of the concept of Kartonage, the Silver Server sponsoring for the streaming has not yet been used.
