Hi Ana,

I think you are right - however, there are more contextual questions that Paul asks which kind of hint towards a more institutional & colonial aspect of what is going on.

My judegment is still out on this & I'm wondering who the hacker was & what his or her motive was?

wishing you well.

I dont understand the discussion, digital art and technologies are breaking boundaries and showing they can make bridges and innovative networks. Why should not Rhizome be able to apply for EU-support? I am against all support based on national or regional bases.

    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."

    Here is the link to the rest of the article on the matter.
