  Location One | Alexei Shulgin 386 DX WIMP   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Shulgin’s Cyberpunk “band”, 386 DX, consists of an archaic computer that plays MIDI tunes with speech-synthesis “vocals” accompanied by Shulgin who “operates” the machine through a computer keyboard slung over his shoulder with a guitar strap.
Shulgin has played concert halls, clubs and every kind of venue throughout Europe and America, most notably through a chain-link fence from the American side of the US/Mexican border at Las Playas de Tijuana while his computerized counterpart was free to perform on the Mexican side of the border.
Alexei Shulgin is a Moscow-based artist, musician, curator, activist and professor.

 Net.art - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The members are usually referenced as Vuk Ćosić, Jodi.org, Alexei Shulgin, Olia Lialina, Heath Bunting.
This group was united as a parody of avantgarde movements by writers such as Josephine Bosma and Hand Dieter Huber but their individual works have little in common.
The birth of net.art as a geographically and historically defined movement is usually related to the creation of the Electronic Photogallery [4] by Alexei Shulgin in 1994, which evolved into the Moscow wwwartcentre [5], as initiated by Alexei Shulgin, Tania Detkina, Alexander Nikolaev and Rachel Baker.

Alexei Shulgin and his 386 DX Cyberpunk band will perform at the US/Mexican border on Saturday December 18, 1999 at 6:00 PM.
Shulgin will perform on the manicured lawn of Border Fields State Park, in the company of the uniformed gun-slinging men and women of the US Border Patrol, who will likely be patrolling the area for illegal Mexican immigrants.
Since borders have become more permeable for products and less passable for people, Shulgin's computer is allowed to travel freely between Mexico and the USA without a visa, but Shulgin must remain behind the chain-link fence that separates his hosting country, the land of equal opportunity, from Mexico.

 NOEMA > ARTS
Shulgin's mild ironic criticism of the technology hype of the mid-nineties is present in all his work and one could say it typifies it.
The way Alexei Shulgin always balanced his criticism of art and media with creating art works within the new media is quite astounding and pleasurable to observe.
Alexei Shulgin not only includes these redundant technologies, but with 386 DX he manages to show us the redundancy of our own pop culture by covering 30 years of pop music and make the result sound like all songs were created at the same time: just now.

Shulgin doesn't have an army of Macs to back up his unique sound, which combines MIDI audio streams and lyrics delivered via a warbly text-to-speech application.
Shulgin's stage moniker, "386 DX," is drawn from the PC, which he's been using in live performances since 1998.
Shulgin isn't the only vintage techno act to hit the scene in recent years.

 V2_: Web site offers artists "democratic forum"
The harmonic melange is an appropriate backdrop for pioneering Russian computer artist, Alexei Shulgin, whose dissonant views and eclectic wit often catch his listeners off guard.
Although Shulgin is the first to admit that art"s position on the Web is ambiguous at best, he is sure of one thing: "The Internet is the most democratic forum artists have ever had.
During one of Shulgin"s recent digital meanderings, he found the winner for this year"s "Most Subtle Play with Sexual Symbolism" award, which was an American Web site about the Korean War that includes pictures of large bombers with risque mascot maidens painted across the airplanes" noses.

In October, Shulgin launched Desktop Is, a Web-based art exhibition that prompts reconsideration of the visual importance of the desktop interface.
Shulgin, 34, is an artist and curator in Moscow, where he maintains the Easylife Web site.
Surprisingly, none of Shulgin's contributors to date has used an art masterpiece as the basis of a desktop, perhaps an indirect acknowledgment that the interface has limited aesthetic potential.

That this doesn't need to be so, and that even computers with limited storage capacity can still take on a function in society, is illustrated by Alexei Shulgin's outdated 386, now serving as a street musician.
The ironic comment delivered by Shulgin and his singing computer is well within the context of the performances by the 386 DX rockband, with which he "toured" Europe in 1998 and performed on nearly 60 occasions.
This one-man-onecomputer- show was based on a similar idea as his current installation: Shulgin presented himself as a performer carrying a keyboard, - and by simply hitting a key elicited the text-to-speech singing, accompanied by very simple music and a few Seventies-style visual effects.

 |||| AN INTERVIEW WITH ALEXEI SHULGIN ||||
As you see the design is completely arbitrary because that was the period when I changed completely from exhibiting art photography to exhibiting 'non-art' sites, with no relation to arty handiwork.
The hardest was when I told myself "Alexei no more Internet conferences, go get a job." RB I looked for a job in order to get enough time to make projects for myself.
But, Alexei, if you speak of a disregard for the broad public and say you are doing art for yourself, wouldn't you accept that as making art for an 'ideal' public, for a public which would appreciate you if they would only make the effort?

 Lev Manovich | Essays : On Totalitarian Interactivity
http://www.rhizome.com) Alexei Shulgin writes: "Looking at very popular media art form such as "interactive installation" I always wonder how people (viewers) are exited about this new way of manipulation on them.
So, emergence of media art is characterised by transition from representation to manipulation." Alexei Shulgin is right in analyzing the phenomenon of interactive art and media as a shift from representation to manipulation.
Yes, interactive computer installations indeed represent an advanced form of audience manipulation, where the subject is put within a structure very similar to an experimental setup of a psychological laboratory or a high-tech torture chamber of CIA or KGB, the kind we saw frequently in spy films of the Cold War era.

The virtual and the erotic, the commercial and the organic, the Grapevine and the Interface bound together by an artistic vision - that is the task that Shulgin confronted himself with and succeeded triumphantly in.
