Hello All, I just emailed "Folly" in Lancaster to find out how they're getting on, and I got this response (below).
Folly has been a key beacon of challenging, high quality, participatory, digital arts in the North West and it's a tragedy that it has had to close. In a way, though, the thing that disturbs me most about this closure is the quietness of Folly's disintegration. Take a look at their web page. Watch out (fellow digital arts activists) for the way that pillars of participatory digital arts culture like "Folly" collapse quietly, while new, often paper-thin initiatives are shouted from the rooftops. Best Regards, James ===== folly is now closed and all staff have now left the organisation. I am monitoring this e-mail occasionally and will deal with urgent / important correspondence relating to folly's wind down and closure. Please remove all folly.co.uk e-mails from you contacts and cease any newsletter postings to folly.co.uk. Many thanks Taylor Nuttall previously CEO folly.co.uk www.folly.co.uk e: [email protected] m: 07932692336 registered charity, 328232. vat 817711627 _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
