Four nights packed with concerts, live acts, and DJs from all over the world. Four days of lectures, discussions, workshops, installations and performances from (independent) organizations, critical thinkers, activists and artists. Most events take place in venues carved inside the historic Schlossberg – the hill in the center of Graz.
The aim of Elevate 2008 is, together with scientists and activists, to raise awareness of the importance of the commons and to shed light on the social and cultural conflicts in the usage of these goods. This will be the framework for discussions, workshops, films and lectures as well as for the presentation of innovative projects.
Numerous workshops within the framework of the Elevate Lab in Forum Stadtpark offer local artists the chance to get to know the international festival guests. An Audio/Visual performance (DJ Spooky), interventions in public space and light experiments (in cooperation with TU Graz) guarantee a new atmosphere in and around the Schlossberg Graz. Guest curators like DJ Scotch Egg from Japan provide for unforgettable experiences during the nightly music programme.

This compilation presents up-and-coming artists from the surrounding of the Elevate Festival in Graz/Austria. Download it for free here!
What do the privatization of water, the flourishing remix culture, the genetic information of a tropical plant, and open source software development all have in common?
They are all part of the fiercely contested commons; natural, cultural and social resources which we have inherited from the natural world or which have been developed through collective processes. In essence, they form the foundation of our lives.
Commons are the basis for the production of food and pharmaceuticals. They are as important for breathing as they are for social networks. We need them to interact, produce and deliver knowledge, art and culture, to move and to regenerate. There can be no sane society without intact common resources.
participating are:
Farmer and winner of the Right Livelihood Award 2007, Percy Schmeiser (CA); musician, author and multimedia artist, Paul D. Miller a.k.a. DJ Spooky (US); journalist and Science Commons expert, Kaitlin Thaney (US); leader of Creative Commons Brazil, author and professor of law, Ronaldo Lemos (BR); author and Commons expert, David Bollier (US); founder of the Free Knowledge Network, Petra Buhr (DE); Commons activist and blogger Silke Helfrich (DE); Anne Schweigler (DE) from the BUKO campaign against biopiracy; political scientist and economist Massimo De Angelis (UK); Michael Tuck (US) from History Commons; Hans-Jochen Luhmann (DE) from the Institute of climate, environment and energy in Wuppertal; bestselling author and publicist Christian Felber (AT); board of iCommons member and “public project lead” of Creative Commons Netherlands, Paul Keller (NL); Stefan Meretz (DE), who studies the political economy of the free software movement; expert for international political economy and climate change, Achim Brunnengräber (DE); “legal project lead” of Creative Commons Austria, Florian Philapitsch (AT); co-director of the documentary film “Good Copy Bad Copy”, Henrik Moltke (DK); and many more
All events are free of charge!
Artistic and musical innovations as well as the interaction of artists from various parts of the festival are the central themes of the 2008 programme. Numerous workshops within the framework of the Elevate Lab in Forum Stadtpark offer local artists the chance to get to know the international festival guests. An Audio/Visual performance (DJ Spooky), interventions in public space and light experiments (in cooperation with TU Graz) guarantee a new atmosphere in and around the Schlossberg Graz. Guest curators like DJ Scotch Egg from Japan provide for unforgettable experiences during the nightly music programme. Shying away from superlatives, but rather opening the possibility for encounters in the intimate atmosphere of individual club nights, with artists and genres that are largely still unknown in this country. More than a hundred artists from twelve nations, most of who will perform live, cater to stylistic diversity.
Wednesday and Thursday free entrance!

Playgrounds Festival – Audiovisual arts – 30 & 31 oktober @ de NWE Vorst, Tilburg
donderdag 30 oktober:
Le le
playtime: 22:00-23:00
Le Le is het muzikale equivalent van een glas champagne uit een champagneglas. Het verschil met wijn uit een pak uit een plastic bekertje (of rechtstreeks uit het pak), is de afkomst en de samenstelling. Het fundament van deze supergroep bestaat namelijk uit Rimer London (ook bekend als Rimer Magique) die we allemaal kennen van elektro/aandelen- juggernaut Comtron, Piet Parra, de uitvinder van het snavelbekdier en tevens de grondlegger van alle toffe graphics die iedereen ooit ergens gezien heeft (als het niet van hem is heeft iemand het wel van hem gestolen, hè Kanye? Bitch…) en Serge Faberyayo, de woorden-Hans Kazan die we al eerder zijn magie ten toon zagen spreiden bij het fenomeen De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig. Tezamen vormen zij een smeltkroes van genialiteit waar de heilige drie eenheid graag een puntje aan zou willen likken. Nu weet iedereen dat het beter is om het goddelijke niet te benoemen, maar met Le Le komen we toch een heel eind zonder bepaalde kosmische grootheden in het gezicht te fluimen. Verwacht grafisch spektakel. Verwacht klasse in de klasse van prinses Stephanie van Monaco. Verwacht waanzin uit de speakers. Verwacht liefdevolle melodieën, stampende bassen, hele liedjes en verwacht vooral het onverwachte. Le Le is de natte droom van die gast met die baard die Esperanto uit gevonden dacht te hebben. Holla.

vrijdag 31 oktober:
Pivot
Playtime: 21:00-22:00
PIVOT uit de WARP-stal ( Aphex Twin, Jamie Lidell) met vernieuwende soundscapes from Down Under, ondersteund door visuals van: the organisation of imagination
De Volkskrant schreef over Pivot:
“Is het dance of rock, de opvallende semi-elektronische (elektronica, gitaar en drums) muziek van Australiërs Richard en Laurenz Pike en Dave Miller?
Pivot steunt op oude pilaren: jaren tachtig-rock met gitaarsolo’s en uitgerekte synthesizermelodieën vormen met moeilijke ritmes een vernieuwend sferisch geheel. Het schuift van minimaal en gevoelig naar rauw en energierijk.
Niet geniaal, wel veelbelovend. Ook hun label heeft fiducie in ze, gezien de zestien albums waarvoor ze zijn getekend. ”
http://www.pivotpivot.net/
http://www.myspace.com/pivotpivot
Huoratron
Playtime: 22:30-23:30
De betere 8-bit nintendo-trash van de man met de baard uit Finland. (Aku Raski). Uit zijn gemodificeerde Gameboys tovert hij frisse bleeps gevolgd door stampende bassen. Getekend op het New Judas label klinkt het soms als een band van het Ed Banger Label, maar dan zonder kruis maar met baard.
De Visuals worden verzorgd door Eyesupply.
