Hi Dave, It was a really stimulating event. Apologies for the lack of webstream. But we expect to have videos of the presentations and discussions archived online for viewing in the next couple of weeks.
There are more planned. Also there is a strong crossover of themes and approaches with the research network that Tom Corby has been running at Westminster for the last year or so. He has worked with Arts Catalyst and they have an event/exhibition next Saturday also well worth checking out. http://www.artscatalyst.org/projects/detail/data_landscapes/ : ) Ruth -----Original Message----- From: dave miller <[email protected]> Reply-to: NetBehaviour for networked distributed creativity <[email protected]> To: NetBehaviour for networked distributed creativity <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [NetBehaviour] Internet Interventions: Imperica magazine interviews Ruth Catlow of Furtherfield.
