STREAM at ICE: Free Performance and Demonstration Thursday, June 24, 6pm, at ICE Athens is home to a new arts organization called STREAM (The Studio for Research in Art and Music). Founded by composer Eric Marty, STREAM is dedicated to innovation in art and music. STREAM brings innovative arts to the public through performances, exhibitions and workshops. To inaugurate its first season, STREAM will present a free public performance and demonstration of interactive audio technology on June 24 at 6pm at ICE. The event is an excellent opportunity to get to know STREAM and ICE and their activities. Composer and STREAM founder Eric Marty will perform and demonstrate "Max/MSP," a software environment for interactive audio and multimedia. Marty's music is heard in Canada, France and the US, and has won awards from the CBC, ASCAP and the Canada Council. The event is free and open to the public.

[A note from Mark Callahan] The ICE web site has settled into a new shape after several months of development. The site is now completely driven by PHP scripting, created for ICE by Lamar Dodd School of Art web developer Joe Willey. The result is a site that needs no special requirements to view, and can be edited with little effort. In the past few weeks I have transfered data from the previous version of the site and added several new sections. The creation of the Forum section was informed by the desire expressed to me by many ICE people, to have an online network for potential collaborators to share their interests. Hopefully the expanded site will become a valuable resource and reflect the diverse activities of this community of artists and scholars. I welcome your feedback and suggestions for improvement, <[log in to unmask]>
