hi karen/nina i just want to make it clear that in no way am i seeking to vilify individual artists for trying to earn a living, opportunities for which are rare enough - i asked because there seemed to be no mention of artists on the 'game on' website i personally wouldn't have anything to do with these events for reasons i have already outlined in full - nothing to do with populist approaches, but everything to do with product placement and art/artists used as tools of legitimisation peace mark ------------------------------------------------- a m b i t : networking media arts in scotland post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] archive: http://www.mediascot.org/ambit info: send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and write "info ambit" in the message body -------------------------------------------------
