Thanks Tom, You are absolutely right about the discursive nature of drawing. Though I never used to be so aware of it. Perhaps it is particular to the since-network experience of drawing. It also felt strangely transgressive- both immersive and deeply satisfying. Another friend said that the video reminds her of early VR: )
While I was drawing 'scenes' I kept flipping between memories of standing in front of Caspar David Friederich paintings and being logged into Second Life looking at the back of my avatar's head...looking at a depiction of someone else (or oneself) looking out across a depiction of a scene. Can we see your drawings? : ) Ruth -----Original Message----- From: tom.corby <[email protected]> To: [email protected], NetBehaviour for networked distributed creativity <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [NetBehaviour] some landscapes Date: Mon, 02 May 2011 18:15:58 +0100 Lovely drawings Ruth. I started drawing again last year, it's a wonderful process and inherently discursive as it *forces* you to see the world as a series of relationships. Great stuff.
