thanks ruth; i can imagine that fiery forge - a place that is perhaps painful but also necessary & for sure will lead to positive things. i would love to hear more about it over the coming months, i am definitely interested in, "invested" in, concerned about, the ongoing evolution of the fabulous beast that is furtherfield in all its many incantations. its value to me is immesurable!

Hiya,

It's really great to hear from you all about this. THANK YOU!

Helen and Edward - your specific feedback concerning the missing "get involved" is helpful/spot on. We /ARE/ on it - it just make take a while to get it right.

Some explanation...
We have been in the fiery forge of organisational development for the last 18 months - to work out whether and how to continue, and to what end:) We have been working with lots of different kinds of people - all of whom have different perspectives on the value and viability of Furtherfield. It's almost impossible to share this process with you properly on Netbehaviour- although it would be supercool if we could. We may be able to say more about this over the next few months if people are interested. Or else just cry out when things feel wrong - or right :)

Hiya,

With all the other things going on at Furtherfield & in our own lives, it's pretty amazing we got this far ;-)

However, yes - of course. We begin shaping things up as we go along. Currently one of the massive issues is transferring all the archives over to the new server. Which is going to take while because it involves manual work and not just batch processing.

wishing you well

marc

I've got to say my first reaction was much like Helen's. 'How do you find your way from here to the NetBehaviour site?' was the first thing that came into my head. 'How do you get involved?' was the second. But like Helen, I expect that all this is coming; and in the meantime, it does look great. I expect it's much more mobile-friendly than the old site, too. It certainly seems to resize very nicely if you drag the screen smaller.

you have defnitely succeeded in making the gallery, lab & debate programmes more accessible. i confess that i was a little bit shocked by the absence of so much from the old site. i miss the explicit invitation to get involved, the invitation to comment on articles, i miss the visibility of the extended community (blog, profiles, calendar), i miss rosalind, i miss the search function ...

maybe all or some of this is coming? (i see that there are "coming soon" placeholders for visitorsstudio & furthernoise).

i'm quite happy to be told to be patient ;) i'm happy to know the old site is still accessible at least for now (migration will indeed be a tedious job ...) & i'm also happy to be reminded that websites are - like performance - ephemeral & transient & mutating spaces ...

Thanks everyone for the positive vibes about the site : )

Our intention is to make our gallery, lab and debate programmes more accessible to people who are not already in the know. But it is a real work in progress.

The old site is still at archive.furtherfield.org
We are slowly slowly migrating content.
It's a bit of a question really - however to manage it all!
We may see if we can get it properly archived.

Shout out to Kate Lomax (for the build and design) and Lauren Angelov Cummings (for content migration)

Warmly
Ruth
