thanks a lot for your reply. what i was trying to do is not to open a new space for discussion in the work, but the opposite via a newsfeed. the element of an rss - feed is a strange thing: to me a net is a way of communicating in several ways, but an rss - feed is simply an old fashioned medium for communication in one direction - i as the producer deliver content to you as the consumer. it's like a kind of tv, nothing more. there is no possibility to comment the feed content on the page, so there can't be any discussion. but my point is not to critisize feeds or similar systems. it's more the attempt to deliver thoughts on communication in a medium that - to some extend - prevents communication (presumed communication is understood as an interactive process). imho one can see such processes in different areas in daily life.
- is it going to be a "work"?
i guess so, yes. i would say it is a work, now. to cite bourriaud: "[...] art's function consists in appropriating perceptual and behavioural habits brought on by the technical-industrial complex to turn them into life possibilities [...]" (bourriaud, nicolas: relational aesthetics. les presses du réel 2002, p.69). that is what i'm trying to do here. carlos On 10/06/07, b xperimënts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
hi katastrofsky, i have questions: (let's see if i'm able to write them in english properly) - why have you decided to open a new "space" for discussion? - is it going to be a "work"? - are you going to keep the hierarchy of you writing and people commenting? - what is going to be the methodology, the path, the way? --- and i have a comment: as a journalist, i have to know about a certain matter now . google gives me the tool to open the brownser and have all about that certain matter, several .xml. but... i can't do anything with all the information about that certain thing if i don't read about all matters... example... just few days ago, eta, the vasque country army, gave up the peace break in spain. that morning i knew everything about the subject i am working in, but i did not read digital newspapers, and this new made lots of changes... my english is not as good as to explain how that break is going to affect the matter i'm in. it's so funny... or so odd... as a journalist or writer or worker in a company communication department, i have to manage information really quick, and i'm just overwhelmed. ... i think that i'm near to a point in which i know the variables of the information formula. i must get near it, or i'll become crazy: what's on in the un, what is that bush-man doing, what is in the index of spanish digital newspapers, and what is on in my subject. i feel that now that i'm not working in what could be named as my "art work", i'm in the middle of a game. and as i am in a company communication department, i am part of the game, too... because i am going to move information... web 2.0 new devices will be needed... a new way of thinking... or not thinking at all: pure zen.
