INTERNET WEEK NEW YORK IWNY HQ at the Metropolitan Pavilion Opening Monday May 20, 2013, 8:00 AM On View May 20, 2013 - May 23, 2013 www.internetweekny.com


We believe that New York City is where technology and business and culture meet. This year will begin to explore how technology has disrupted and revolutionized every section of business from food to fashion to healthcare to education.

IWNY, taking place this year from May 20-27 2013, was launched in 2008 in cooperation with the New York City Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment. It is a week-long festival celebrating Internet business and culture and will attract more than 45,000 Internet professionals, working across all sectors, attending 250+ events produced by IWNY and 150+ citywide event partners. (This year citywide is extending a little further—out to the Hamptons for events there over Memorial Day weekend.) The central hub of the festival is the IWNY HQ at the Metropolitan Pavilion (125 W 18th Street - map). The HQ will bring together 10,000 attendees for four days of celebrity keynotes and lively panel discussions on two live-streamed stages, workshops and tutorials in the official IWNY classroom, dozens of interactive displays, a screening room (new for this year!), media center, a café and a lounge.

Planned content tracks in the HQ will be dedicated to fashion & beauty in tech, music tech, sports & fitness in tech, food tech, and women in tech. We will also continue our mainstay focus on advertising, media, and marketing. There will be deeper dive, co-located conferences on areas such as healthcare & technology. We will also be incubating new topic areas such as how digital is impacting law, real estate, and finance. Beyond that, the overarching themes of IWNY 2013 will be digital education, bridging the digital divide, and empowering small businesses to get online.

HUBERT SAUPER: DARWIN'S NIGHTMARE EXPO 1: NEW YORK MoMA PS1 Screening Monday May 20, 2013, 4:00 PM www.momaps1.org


Darwin’s Nightmare (2004) by Hubert Sauper, video, 107 min, Austria/Belgium/France

“Feeling more like sci-fi/horror than documentary, Darwin’s Nightmare is the stranger-than-fiction tale of two relentless killing machines: the Nile Perch which, over the course of a few decades, ate through everything that used to live in Tanzania’s Lake Victoria; and the foreign capitalists who introduced that non-native fish in order to sell it to European consumers. Losing out to both of these were the local Tanzanians who once lived off the lake’s bounty, and now, literally, are left with bones and rotting carcasses. When things take an even stranger turn, thanks to an astounding third-act revelation, the relentlessness becomes a cautionary tale it may not be too late to heed.” – International Film Circuit

An Evening with J. P. Sniadecki MoMA Screening Monday May 20, 2013, 7:00 PM www.moma.org


North American premiere

Includes the following film:
Yumen
2013. China/USA. Directed by Huang Xiang, Xu Ruotao, J. P. Sniadecki. This highly experimental twist on the ethnographic documentary visits the town of Yumen, in China’s northwest Gansu province, a once-thriving, oil-rich community in the 1980s that has been left depleted and derelict. Strikingly shot on film, Yumen tells the story of this ghost town through a series of wandering characters and inventive vignettes in which even the spirit of Bruce Springsteen is summoned to comment on a world in ruins. A collaboration between Chinese and American filmmakers, Yumen pushes the boundaries of the documentary aesthetic in depicting China’s past and present. Courtesy of the filmmakers. 65 min.

SENSATIONS Doron Sadja Roulette Performance Monday May 20, 2013, 8:00 PM www.roulette.org


Doron Sadja’s body of work spans everything from immersive multichannel sound pieces to pelvis thrusting performances, feces filled speaker installations, and stroboscopic smoke, mirror, laser, and projection shows. Equal parts disgust and empathy, organic and synthetic, D. Sadja’s work excites the psyche with extremes to create hyper-emotive sonic architecture. Tonight, Sadja presents the world premiere of SENSATIONS, a multichannel work developed specifically to engage the unique architectural space and lighting system of Roulette's Art Deco concert hall: combining lush romantic synthesizers, dense noise, binaural frequencies, and high-intensity lights in an onslaught of highly-controlled chaos.

WARNING: SENSATIONS contains stroboscopic lights.

"Doron Sadja gives life to music which is difficult, powerful, intense and delicate – all at the same time." Touching Extremes

D. Sadja has published music on 12k, ATAK, and Shinkoyo records, and has performed/shown video and installation work at PS1 MoMA, Fragmental Museum, Miami MOCA, D’amelio Terras Gallery, Cleveland Museum of Art, Issue Project Room, and Roulette amongst others. Sadja co-founded Shinkoyo Records and the West Nile experimental performance space in Brooklyn (RIP), and has curated various new music/sound festivals around NYC.
Check out our interview with the artist on our blog.
