Hi Alan, Entering into education the wrong way round.
I have always researched, studied, made art, written & hacked outside of institutional contexts, until now... I have been offered an MPhil, with a choice to do a PhD after the 2nd year. The programme of study falls under - Film/Television/Media Studies Research. Although many individuals are studying digital, media art within this framework of study. An edited intro... How artists engage in the process of taking control of the medium of technology, and their own creative voice; is complicated and works at many different degrees of self-agency and situation-based needs. The Situationists in their own time had to bring about a completely new way of being in the world. They changed habits and approaches to their own art, introducing new territories of art practice, adapting and moving their attention into the realms of film, book distribution and projects (happening) in everyday culture. In light of Debord's statement "There can be no freely spent time until we possess the modern tools for the construction of everyday life. The use of such tools will mark the leap from a utopian revolutionary art to an experimental revolutionary art. My starting question is - How can art maintain its authenticity in a Neoliberalist world? It's a little bit more complex, but the above give's you some idea :-) wishing you well. marc >Birkbeck? I visited David Bohm there! Wonderful! What are you studying? love Alan On Mon, 11 Oct 2010, marc garrett wrote: > > Hi Netbehaviourists, > > > > From today... > > > > I am a student at Birkbeck University - a whole new experience for me. > > > > It's good to become someone else again ;-) > > > > marc > > _______________________________________________ > > NetBehaviour mailing list > > [email protected] > > http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour > > > > == email archive: http://sondheim.rupamsunyata.org/ webpage http://www.alansondheim.org music archive: http://www.espdisk.com/alansondheim/ == _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
