The World in 24 Hours
RAPPORTO (Quelle: Archiv Robert Adrian X)
Vienna, December 9, 1982
It is now just over 2 months since "THE WORLD IN 24 HOURS" project took place and this report completes, finally, the documentation. The enclosed material, including copies of telefax pages, photos of SSTV images, descriptions and photos of the activities in Linz during the project, and a nearly complete copy of "ARS CONFERENCE" on the I.P.Sharp network, is a selection from all the material we received during the 24 hours. We also have over 2 hours of U-Mativ Video tape which will be edited to about 20 minutes. Dubs of this tape are available to anyone interested for the cost of tape and dubbing time.
The strain of 24 hours of non-stop activity on people and equipment is obvious in the uneven quality (and quantity) of the enclosed material ... some things didn't get recorded or photographed ... the sound recording equipment broke down ... the person with the camera went home to bed, with the camera! ... we ran out of video tape in the middle of the night when everything was locked ... one telephone died and another got very neurotic in the early morning ... we all forgot and lost things, including telephone numbers.
But on the whole it was a successfull experiment. We learned a lot ... for one thing, we learned that most things, including people are not designed for non-stop, 24 hour, activity. But we also learned that such a project is possible and that the next one will be even better given the experience we now have.
There are, of course, many things we would do differently if we had to do it all again but three things stand out: 1. More time for preparation. We had 9 months but it needed at least a year. 2. Better audio recording equipment. The ORF (Austrian Radio/TV) supplied excellent sound equipment but the wrong tape deck. We should have paid a lot more attention on this point. 3. More telephones. We had 3 lines but needed 5. For a total telecommunications experience you need all the media working at once ... plus a communication line for emergencies. Telecommunications, by artists or anybody, only gets really exciting when carried out on a global scale. But the price of global scale telecommunications projects is all the pain and problems of language and cultural differences, time zones, networking and night-working. On balance I think it is worth it ... looking through the material we received one can feel a new kind of art developing, a new medium. Its a very exciting feeling.
Lets do it again soon!

telephone concert: 15 aprile 1983. -- Artpool, Budapest / Blix, Vienna / Aufbau-abbau, Berlino
La musica giocata nel telefono è MUSICA del TELEFONO perché, non importa come è ricca e meravigliosa la musica quando entra nel telefono, quando emerge cento, mille, dieci mila chilometri lontano sarà suono del telefono. La banda stretta delle frequenze disponibili nel telefono (basso costo e disponibilità universale) significa che tutto ciò che entra nel telefono esce come suono del telefono. In un concerto di MUSICA del TELEFONO lo strumento è il telefono in se.
LA MUSICA del TELEFONO era un tentativo di utilizzare il telefono (come il mezzo di comunicazioni elettronico universalmente disponibile) per generare uno spazio comune per gli artisti attraverso le barriere ideologiche che hanno diviso allora Europa centrale - fra Vienna "occidentale", Berlino divisa e Budapest "orientale". Al ÖKS a Vienna, Artpool a Budapest ed Aufbau/Abbau a Berlino, il telefono è stato collegato semplicemente ad un amplificatore in modo che le prestazioni di musica e del suono degli artisti potessero essere giocate l'un l'altro per una paio d’ore. Il budget del telefono è stato fornito dal ÖKS a Vienna così Berlino e Budapest sono state chiamate da Vienna e ogni performance è durata circa 20 minuti. Il suono è stato ricevuto a Vienna ed trasmesso su una seconda linea per il terzo partner. Le performance di Vienna sono state effettuate su 2 linee direttamente alle altre 2 posizioni.
La parte finale del concerto era una 3-way jam session come una specie di conferenza telefonica improvvisata messa insieme da Karl Kubacek a Vienna.

BUDAPEST letter from art pool by julia galántai
Dear Bob,
Here you have the photos of the telephone concert. They were made by J. Vetö, T. Nemesi and G. Galántai - they don't remember who made which one.
Some information about Hungary's programme: On the telephone concert at the Artpool Studio / Julia and Gyorgy Galántai / there were about 40-50 artists present, among them Miklös Erdély and his INDIGO Art Group; János Vetö and Laszlo Kiss from the Trabant Group; Sandor Czakö from the VHK / Rasende Leichenbeschauer / group etc.
One part of the 1 hour programme had been previously recorded on tape / as a concert with several groups and all the instruments couldn't be done at our 3rd floor studio. This was the following:
- Artpool's steps - Bizottsag / the committee group /: nothing is happening to me, darling. - Mihaly VIG: The coward soviet man doesn't speak about politics. - Vetö-Zuzu: music for the opening of the exhibition "New flags, new winds" - Europa Kiado / Europe to rent or Europe Publishing House /: The empire hits back / or ripostes --- titel of an american film, I don't know the English original. - Jurij Kozmos: Tango - VHK - Peter Mery: Erzsike / little Elisabeth - Trabant: In ballet shoes and in disguise -Mortar and pail
Between the recorded pieces the INDIGO Group made some minutes of live concert using hammers, bars, boards, a pair of scales etc. and the public accompanied them singing. On the 30 minutes common concert with Berlin everyone participated using "instruments" found in our studio. Technically we arranged so that we could speak and send music and receive music at the same time. We used a tape recorder, a mixer, an amplifier, a microphone and 3 loudspeakers. For a good quality sending we isolated the telephone's microphone and one loudspeaker-which emitted only what we were sending-in this way we also avoided the reverberations. In the main hall, where the public was, from one loudspeaker one could listen to what you were sending, from the other we could hear what we were saying. During the concert here, everyone was very enthusiast and I think it was in fact an event or a happening as all the public participated, it really was a common concert-not like in Vienna or in Berlin where there were groups and there was an audience-here people felt to belong to an universal culture where one could communicate with the help of art or music. It was a very nice utopistic feeling.
Maybe the photos are not the best, but we didn't think on the photos. I was a "technician" and Gyuri forgot totally about the photos. That's why there ist no photo on which you could see the space, or alle the people present here.-But as you know it was decided in the last moment that the concert will be held in our studio. ..
Hope to meet you too some day in Budapest,
with our best wishes
Julia Galántai, Artpool, Budapest.

report from aufbau-abbau by rainald schumacher
I dont believe that anybody really knew what was happening or what could actually be done. So we just tried to make the technology work and get a good line so that we could receive as much as possible, the musicians played their music and the audience received its entertainment, and we were all very excited and courious to know what we would be hearing from Vienna and Budapest. But somehow, in all the confusion, we simply overlooked the telephone, because the telephone doesn't transmit the things we had to "say" the way we said them, we should have talked in a different way--more telephone--link or whatever you call it. Perhaps we should have not only spoken differently but have had something different to say. But it seems to be a long way from the use of accessible systems by artists to the mediation of artistic ideas or content through the formal structure of such systems.
That is why we are looking forward to the next time.
