I have been to a shop to buy some coffee beans and while riding my bike, I thought : wasn't I a bit nasty to furtherfield/netbehaviour? When back I found some reactions that reassured me, but I had been thinking that somehow I was a bit sour on furtherfield/netbehaviour and I asked myself why, what would you like to be different, to change? A small idea popped up : I miss the connexion between furtherfield live in the park (where I imagine a lot of the work is happening) and furtherfield online - especially netbehaviour. Of course there are the announcements, info on the works showed of people I know online, but I miss thoughts by these actual artists who showed, worked with the real place on what is going on, on how the relation is constructed, of what their work does when place in a gallery place. I miss personal stories on this on netbehaviour.
