I'll be moderating the yasmin list this week,
I am aware that this is one on the most busy months in the arts, so I encourage you to send announcements of the events you are taking part of or comments of those you are attending,
I've just came back from Arco fair in Madrid, I was glad to see some works of the art/science area in the fair environment. Fantastic to hear that the mexican artist Marcela Armas received the Beep Prize with a wonderful piece named Maquina Stella, you can read the article about the prize in Roberta Bosco&Stefano Caldana's new blog (in Spanish):

It was also a great opportunity for me to exhibit and work with the artists awarded in VIDA 13.2, 2011 edition of the Art and Artificial Life International Awards. The three main prizes and an honorary mention were shown at Fundacion Telefonica stand: Naked on Pluto by Marloes de Valk, Aymeric Mansoux and Dave Griffiths, Ocular Revision by Paul Vabouse, Protei by Cesar Harada and all the team of protei developers, and Transducers by Verena Friedrich.
To finish, I would like to invite you to the event "Our Life Online" which will take place next Friday 24th of February at CCCBLab. This is the first collaboration of VIDA with them and an opportunity for the audience to participate in the workshop with Aymeric Mansoux during the morning. Later in the evening we will continue the discussion with a presentation of Jussi Parikka and a debate with Aymeric Mansoux, Pau Waelder and myself is collaborating. Join us if you are around!
