Free103point9 and Transmission Arts.
-------------------------------------------------->
Since its emergence as a microcasting artist collective in 1997,
free103point9 has consistently pursued the legitimization and promotion
of transmission arts. Today, the clandestine collective is a non-profit
arts organization whose many ventures are: Project space -a gallery in
Brooklyn, New York-, Wavefarm -a research centre currently under
construction-, a radio lab, an on-line radio and a distribution label.
Aware of the need of defining transmission arts, free103point9 has
painstakingly theorized and documented the history and forms of
transmission art: radio and video art, performance, installation, light
sculptures. Textbooks and a growing on-line archive of transmission
artworks are two ways in which free103point9 consolidates the notion of
transmission arts.

Chris Ashley - Look, See.
-------------------------------------------------->
Every day since 2002 Chris Ashley has created an abstract coloured
drawing in hand-coded HTML tables and posted it to his weblog “Look,
See”. The structured format of a weblog frames these small but often
complex works perfectly. Weblogs are an informal medium and personal
weblogs often have the quality of a diary or consisting of a
confessional nature. This is a deflating context for art, one that in
Chris's case allows some of the aesthetic content of high and late
modernism to be rehabilitated without bathos. What was once meant to be
universal is made personal, not with the knowingness of Neo Geo but with
a remixer's virtuosity and enthusiasm.

Flick Harrison's Interactive Cinema: Marie Tyrell.
-------------------------------------------------->
The film “Marie Tyrell” came to my attention when I was asked to
moderate the Cinematic Salon, a monthly informal community event in
Vancouver, hosted by Cineworks, a non-profit artist-run cinema centre.
The Cinematic Salon is meant to, “provide an opportunity for dialogue
around film artistry, in which guest artists show and discuss their
work, encourage other filmmakers at all stages of their careers, as well
as for individuals simply interested in film, meet, discuss and learn
from each other’s experiences in film making.” This particular event was
called “Flick Harrison: Film Interactive” due to its interactive
features as a means to demystify or interrogate the narrative, politics
and production of the film.

Unlearning Paris Hilton [vs: Reconstructing (Gender) Isabella].
On Abe Linkoln's video on 'isabelle-dinoire'.
[[Mez]] Explores Abe Linkoln's video on Isabelle Dinoire, the first
person to undergo a partial face transplant, after her dog mauled her in
May 2005. Ideologically + representationally Paris Hilton has a
surprising amount in common with her [_House of] Wax_work_drenched
performance in the movie of the same name. In _House of Wax_ she
portrays a pe[tulant]rpetual bottle_x.tension_teen_sex.shell_blonde
intent on conveying some teen_tidbit 2 her jock _clichéd_b/friend.
