Hi Marc, To be honest, I think 4 co-curators is enough to be dealing with let alone the amount of 11-12, you mention. And there may even be more this time round. Sounds scary to me, I think you've got a tough job on there. I mean, what if you get some lame idiot trying to ruin everything from a less interesting art group, who's jealous of how dynamically networked everything is?
Sorry for asking questions all of the time, I just find what is happening with this project so fascinating. all the best, Stuart. >------- Original Message Follows ------- >From: "marc garrett" <[email protected]> >To: <[email protected]> >Subject: Re: [NetBehaviour] DIWO: Co-Curation event 12-3pm Friday > 27th November 2009 >Date: Sat, 21 Nov 2009 12:57:52 +0000 > >Hi Stuart, > >The other thing to remember, is that many are already making a >curatorial decision when taking part, in choosing their on work... > >wishing you well. > >marc >> Hi Ruth & other DIWO/Netbehavourists/Dark Mountain explorers... >> >> This all sonds excellent.
