Mediamatic Magazine (1985-2000) & Mediamatic Off-Line (2000-2007)

Mediamatic was established in 1985 as a meeting place for television- and videoartists and theorists. A year later Mediamatic Magazine was born: an internationally published quarterly about art and new media. It quickly acquired a legendary status among new media lovers around the world. From 1993 on Mediamatic was present on the internet and every Mediamatic Magazine was supplemented with a cd-rom.

In 2000 Mediamatic continued its publications under the title Mediamatic Off-Line. Mediamatic Off-Line was an irregularly appearing series, always connected to an autonomous artistic project that was presented on the accompanying cd-rom or dvd. Mediamatic published some now (in)famous cd-roms created by Gerald van der Kaap, JoDi, Doors of Perception and Florian Thalhofer. The last edition of Mediamatic Offline appeared in 2007.

The Foundation for the Advancement of Illegal Knowledge (ADILKNO): The Media Archive. World Edition (1992/1998)

Dense, rigorous essays concerned not with the secret intentions lurking behind information transmission, but on the parallel worlds created through these transmissions. Media see the world as raw material for their own project, and as they are forced to constant development, the media text can never produce a final understanding. In these essays, ADILKNO looks for models of thought and magic words that will help the media text spell itself out to the point of exhaustion.

Many pieces in the “Media Archive” were originally written for the Dutch media art magazine “Mediamatic” and the Belgian film magazine “Andere Sinema” (Other Cinema).

Originally published as: Stichting ter Bevordering van de Illegale Wetenschap. “BILWET Media-Archief.” Amsterdam: Ravijn, 1992 and Agentur Bilwet “Medien-Archiv”, Mannheim: Bollmann, 1993.
Translated from the Dutch by Laura Martz, Washington, D.C., and Sakhra -l’Assal/Ziekend Zoeltjes Produkties, Amsterdam, 1997
