Super happy to see Rob's Balloon Dog getting seen as part of this exhibition

Annie...
Well perhaps Format (technical) stands for Form (artistic)
I'm not sure I could (or would want to) find and define a "female" format but
v. disheartened by what is either an unfortunate oversight or just a pure evil
exclusion of work by women.
There are many many many examples - these are just a tiny sliver of women who
could have contributed a format to the project. I hesitate to make a list
because of all the brilliant things that will then be excluded but just to show
that this isn't just hot air.
De Geuzen (Renee Turner, Riek Sijbring and Femke Snelting)- Female Icons and
Anxiety Monitor
Mary Flanagan - many many many, including Domestic - personal history told
around the flaming walls of a gamespace
Helen Varley Jamieson and Paula Crutchlow - Make-Shift - participatory
(audiences of two physical spaces) linked by artists' dramaturgy
Upstage - Avatar Body Collision - cyberformance software platform and
performance programme
Annie Abrahams - The Big Kiss, Huit Clos, Angry Women +many many- networked
performance
Liz Sterry - Kay's Blog, real-world reconstruction of social life online
Ele Carpenter - Embroidered Digital Commons - stitching together of Craft and
Code cultures of knowledge sharing and politics.
Alison Craighead
Amy Alexander
Kate Armstrong
Kate Rich
Francesca fa Rimini
Coco Fusco
Natalie Jeremijenko
Laurie Anderson
Mez Breeze
Kelli Dipple
Nina Pope and Karen Guthrie

of course I am glad, happy for Rob to be in this show
I posted because I was thinking, am thinking about gender and power,
influence, attention, - feel quit confused about it, but noticed form@t didn't
include "female" formats and made me think about if these exist
yes they must, they do
Can we find good examples?
And why they are omitted?
does form@t mean control?
is the show a formalistic exposure?
I know that the initiator of the online art presentations in Jeu de Paume
is a women - she invited Christophe Bruno - an artist I know and appreciate -
she is having a lot of difficulties defending online art.
Does the institution need a strong male presence to "try to be convincing"?
Is it a sign of times not changing? Are we still at the Three Guineas time
of Virginia Woolf

Annie
Can we find good examples of fem@le Form@ts?

Some are in the "Magic Ring" project, although none are mentioned on the
front page, no. :-/
