Hello All,
I’ve just returned from a week at the Venice Bienalle, great time, mega bushels of art, and sweet fanny adams by way of a net connection.
Just before I went Ursula and I had a couple of good skype conversations, still a long way to go but it seems like some form of consensus might [...]
Hello to all,
I am back…to the global village.
Thanks for all your posts, and thanks Ben for sharing your thoughts!
Ben, I’d like to respond to your questions:
The “mechanics” questions: Will we make something, and how? Plus how to approach it, which parameters to give it…And last, the question of ”collaborating on something that has a [...]
I have only just seen Heather’s post on the LED photo that I put up on Flickr. Thanks for that Heather- you’re so right and I love the idea of the opera piece. I made a film in ‘98 when I first moved to Germany and didn’t speak a word of the [...]
Just another very quick couple of ideas:
I was thinking in bed last night about global meltdown horoscopes:
Libra: As Saturn moves into Aquarius your house may be in danger of reposession. Do not book any foreign holidays in the next two months.
Also more thoughts about slogans and subverting them:
Ask not what you can [...]
Narinda and I decided to email each other 5 + ideas for work. We’ve been talking about financial meltdown- is the entire world coming undone? Here’s what I came up with… early ideas so be nice
1) The first idea is in response to one of your idea’s which may very reasonably be considered [...]
Hello to you all,
I’ve just been playing catch up on the blog, and thoughts and and and… I feel kind of overwhelmed by how much thinking has been going on whilst I have been indisposed. There have been so many fantastic thoughts, many of which I agree with, especially the debates regarding virtual identity/privacy/addiction/validation and [...]
Well, it’s been quite a week, with regrets and confessions received from contributors from all the over the world. I’ve laughed, I’ve cried, I’ve cried with laughter and generally felt like it’s good to know that I’m not alone in worrying about the things I didn’t say/should have said/wish I’d never said and just [...]
Thanks for your counter-rant Narinda. I think I needed a good slap around the face to calm my virtual hysteria. I do agree with your points and I vacillate wildly between loving the digital contact that I have with friends and feeling overwhelmed by it too.
One problem is my hiiiiiiiiiighly addictive personality: when [...]
Hi all…thanks Jessica and Narinda for your last posts - very thought provoking stuff, which i look forward disussing, brainstorming, or simply reacting to in adequate depth – soon. I have been working on the preparation for my next performance, a new part of the Website Impersonation Series — the impersonation of “www.live.com” – which I [...]
Oh God, after reading the articles Narinda sent I feel that I may never use the internet again! I knew it already but it’s one of those things that you consistently push under the carpet and hope it will just go away if you don’t look at it for long enough (rather like my ironing [...]
