Lovink and Broekman will write the history, along with some others. You can find the historians of media art here: http://www.mediaarthistory.org/

Even in a post-Foucauldian world history remains what is written. best Simon On 11 Sep 2011, at 02:11, Andrej Tisma wrote: > Hi Marc, > >> What I found strange, is that I have met you personally and know that >> the picture painted of you at the time is completely different... > > Yes of course, people had prejudice about me, but I just wanted to discuss > the situation and give my own angle of view.
