The strange tale of Rhizome and its Arts Council funding "Rhizome's Seven on Seven event took place last weekend at the Barbican in London. Bringing artists and technologists together, it was the first event on British soil for the digital arts organisation and was sponsored by a number of organisations including Wieden + Kennedy.
Why and how Rhizome required Arts Council funding for the event, however, was opened up in a series of supposedly leaked emails, released over the weekend. A Twitter account was set up called @jiggawebz93 by a person who remains anonymous, and the account has since been suspended. The account appears to have been created to leak information about Rhizome's application to Arts Council England (ACE), with the account owner claiming to have hacked into Rhizome's email and web CMS."
