PILOT is a project that takes the manifesto as a context in contemporary art, and tries to think about the history of the form up to now, and the possibilities for the form into the future. It retroactively proposes the manifesto as a medium within art practice, in the same way that painting is a medium, or sculpture. The manifesto medium has the innate capacity to displace the binary between the political and the aesthetic, which has plagued many conversations around art since the ideology of “art for art’s sake” evolved in the 19th century. </div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(35, 30, 32); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; color: #231e20; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 19px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Where most modern mediums, like photography, film, and the Internet, were inaugurated through technological breakthroughs, the manifesto arose in response to the emergence of the “bourgeois public sphere” with the liberal democracies of the 18th century. This was a system of looking at the world in which a culture of polite and rational conversation was presented as the correct posture for public interaction. It proposed itself to be universal, to represent the needs of all the people, but it was –and still is, in its neo-liberal incarnation–a zone which operated to erase and exclude narratives and histories that did not cohere to its tidy and convenient assumptions about itself. Janet Lyon, in her book <i>Manifestoes: Provocations of the Modern </i>(1999), argues that the manifesto has operated to exceed the terms of this universalism, to call it to account for the promises it makes, but does not keep. And so the manifesto exceeds the rational sphere of consensual public discourse –it demands access to the conversation, even an <i>end </i>to the conversation; it demands regard for new formal approaches; demands complexity, even when it is <i>coded </i>as simplistic. </div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(35, 30, 32); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; color: #231e20; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 19px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
Under 20th century modernism, mediums competed for relevancy. There was a self-reflexive search for the inherent characteristics of each medium, on the basis that these characteristics could allow the individual medium to function on its own terms. This approach became fetishized into a productive, then deadening, formalism. And so, in the Sixties we had the “dematerialization” of the art object, the beginnings of the post-medium condition, of a hybridity in art practice that has continued to this day. And yet, when we encounter works of art, ephemeral or object-based, we often understand them in relation to the more staid medium-tradition from which we decide, or know, them to be derived. With this in mind, it is possible to look at many aspects of contemporary art practice as an example of the manifesto medium in an “expanded field”. The manifesto may now be a “distributed attitude”, a floating archetype or impulse that realizes itself in multiple contexts such as the theory essay, the exhibition, the performance, or even the syllabus. We might even propose this depressingly general rule for establishing the “manifesto-status” of a discourse, idea or thing: in the expanded field of the contemporary manifesto, some- thing <i>is </i>a manifesto if someone somewhere <i>says </i>it is a manifesto. </div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(35, 30, 32); -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; color: #231e20; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 19px; margin-bottom: 12px;">
When there are breaks in hegemonic orders, as during the rapid modernization of <i>fin de siècle </i>Europe, the uproar of the French Revolution, the Civil Rights era within the U.S., or indeed, as PILOT will explore, NOW...there are <i>manifesto-moments </i>where diverse groups and contexts struggle for agency and control of the emerging sphere. The fact that manifestos are frequently reactive, or proactively constituted to fight for control of an emerging set of relations, means they happen in competition. <span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">The more manifestos there are that make an overarching claim for a group or context, the more atomization there is, as agents work to produce ever more refined self-identifications. Perhaps the promise of a </span><i style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">manifesto moment </i><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">is that it is about relations; it is about mapping the divergent eruptions of a new social order before it has condensed itself again into a set of </span><i style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">prima facie </i><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">transparent doctrines and ideologies. It is a </span><i style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">relativist </i><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">time because all the spheres, and spaces, and specific institutional and identity sedimentations are rocked and blown open. There is a battle for narrative control by not yet discernible forces. In this regard, any attempt to understand something about a historical period that does not proceed through a methodological relativism, (offered, in this proposal, via a horizontal tracing of the manifesto off a vertical axes </span><i style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">determined </i><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;">by the manifesto), is missing out on something. It fails to see the connections across a culture, and remains within the endless refraction of one frame.</span><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: initial;"> </span></div>

PILOT takes the intimacy of the free-form radio format, and a set of artists and individuals with interesting and developed positions, and looks at some of the ideas that are outlined above. It also goes back to some primary texts, and sees in them a quality that can inform the present. Across the virtual ether will stream this signal made up of voice and sound... searching, ever on, for the receptive ear into which it can be jammed. </div>

Hi,<br />
<br />
OK, just did some spring cleaning on this site, a number of the audio links were down and so I've uploaded to SoundCloud. You can link to the playlist <a href="https://soundcloud.com/bartholomew-ryan-1/sets/pilot-the-manifesto-in-the">here</a>.<br />
<br />
I recorded PILOT back in 2009 because I was hoping to find a way to consider aesthetics and politics in a single space, and because things seemed to be changing and there was the idea that there might be some good from the financial crisis. I created a manifesto (click for PDF above), and three radio programs which were broadcast live.<br />
<br />
Recently I've been struck by the prevalence of manifesto thinking almost everywhere I look, hopefully these programs will help unpack something about this impulse.<br />
<br />
Cheers,<br />
Bartholomew<br />

I can't really speak, and therefore can't really present.

The third program will run on May 19th. Tonight I will play full documentation from the<a href="http://welcometopilot.blogspot.com/2009/03/manifesto.html"> MANIFESTO</a>! reading that took place in Bard College on April 13, 2009. There is a lot in there, and hopefully some of you will enjoy it. I will podcast it like the other shows. OK, best of luck, and if you can't listen tonight, be sure to tune in next week. <div><br /></div><div>b</div>PILOT, Spring 2009http://www.blogger.com/profile/06384937984652453232noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7710955783871409339.post-91819835708904194862009-04-30T22:58:00.000-04:002009-04-30T23:11:29.760-04:00Hot<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK1MucsoAg6bzItyoasu2mP3mqlDW-vKGyLDQAjpUA64Rp-3J5RPuQA0UJdhWjevSaxnk56do2xc9zsttuHnwOBqYtwl89IaGGgfbTAgkYx7IA8yZGYQSNXJ_fTC4SqB7TSB_rSYicuSoy/s1600-h/HXEmpiphany.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK1MucsoAg6bzItyoasu2mP3mqlDW-vKGyLDQAjpUA64Rp-3J5RPuQA0UJdhWjevSaxnk56do2xc9zsttuHnwOBqYtwl89IaGGgfbTAgkYx7IA8yZGYQSNXJ_fTC4SqB7TSB_rSYicuSoy/s400/HXEmpiphany.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330687678877873954" /></a>PILOT, Spring 2009http://www.blogger.com/profile/06384937984652453232noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7710955783871409339.post-54426694773118660702009-04-29T21:39:00.013-04:002009-05-21T13:49:29.314-04:00To listen or subscribe to PILOT<span style="font-weight:bold;">To subscribe to weekly podcast or listen to a program:</span><br /><br />Click on the small orange feed symbol at top right of the blog.

The idea was not to create a comprehensive rendition of the manifesto-cannon, but to allow different texts to exist in conversation that alluded to aspects of the overall manifesto-context in an interesting way. This list could be replaced with 30 other lists equally valid and interesting, though, of course, necessarily differant in the effect of their affect and political/aesthetic prescriptions. If there are any questions about the selections, or the reasons for the selections –not all of which were an endorsement of the given position proposed– email welcometopilot@gmail.org. We did not have time to get to all the texts, some of which will be a part of PILOT, so this does not seem so bad. Where I decided to cut one, I have linked to another version of the manifesto online. Audio from the event will be updated periodically.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"> </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"> </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"> </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"><br /></p><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:16.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"><br /></p> <!--EndFragment--> <p></p> <!--EndFragment--> <p></p></span></span>PILOT, Spring 2009http://www.blogger.com/profile/06384937984652453232noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7710955783871409339.post-55935618587869341552009-04-12T23:42:00.000-04:002009-04-17T20:36:44.050-04:00Ephemera...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyAeMnD-XYAk0Lz0Qtyg0RMcI5h5jnsIXEwTzGAl3wdNRwvRHiH1jADn0-0yCcTUiboT9w9uQS4Zc47JWQlv2amrDnL7yqm3EJosbd_sn7KvKqtotMINILU1FYeWGEaN8DVzZQ-s9sXLtI/s1600-h/MANIFESTOPERFORMANCE_04.13.09.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 309px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyAeMnD-XYAk0Lz0Qtyg0RMcI5h5jnsIXEwTzGAl3wdNRwvRHiH1jADn0-0yCcTUiboT9w9uQS4Zc47JWQlv2amrDnL7yqm3EJosbd_sn7KvKqtotMINILU1FYeWGEaN8DVzZQ-s9sXLtI/s400/MANIFESTOPERFORMANCE_04.13.09.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5325501824628454274" /></a>PILOT, Spring 2009http://www.blogger.com/profile/06384937984652453232noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7710955783871409339.post-82210620464782772582009-03-30T01:58:00.006-04:002009-03-31T01:45:03.741-04:00Mierle Laderman Ukeles<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMfoZczk5ByooVIxfMgcdob5mCZujk0kvf4eZsSt6AnahzeG4Zg2GqV_9SvWfTPKg1CgsxD6mu1-21-H_Be09B1uzM-FwnOAZoOiV3o3ggjBRUa06qVLIXGmhMbslBjVv6m1jfIySTWGt8/s1600-h/socialmirror.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMfoZczk5ByooVIxfMgcdob5mCZujk0kvf4eZsSt6AnahzeG4Zg2GqV_9SvWfTPKg1CgsxD6mu1-21-H_Be09B1uzM-FwnOAZoOiV3o3ggjBRUa06qVLIXGmhMbslBjVv6m1jfIySTWGt8/s320/socialmirror.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318858358163893282" /></a><br />A published <a href="http://www.artinamericamagazine.com/news-opinion/conversations/2009-03-20/draft-mierle-interview/">extract</a> of longer audio interview with the artist Mierle Laderman Ukeles.
