art. some interesting thoughts on the matter are being raised.
vlogging as art is a subject i have been hashing around for a while on
my blog and in discussions with video artists.
a good point was raised about what happens when the vlog post is
viewed in a different context, ie: a show at an art gallery. does the
video need to be seen in the context for which it was made in order
for it to maintain it's "vloginess"? i think, perhaps, it does.
i,too, enjoy the intimate size of the viewing window and the
one-to-one feeling vlogs inspire. while many people may be viewing the
same vlogs as i am, i am able to have a direct, one-to-one
relationship with the video maker. i am able to respond to the video
with a video of my own and link to the original piece. i am part of a
dialogue. i retain my individuality in a way that a television
audience does not.
i wonder, as the structure of video on the internet continues to
expand, if the tv model will become more prevelant and makers will
scrap the blog model and use feedreaders and directories as a sole
means of distributing their video. is it still a vlog if there is no
link to a "home"? will the nature of vlogging change from
intercommunication to spectatorship? when broadcasting networks make
their own online video shows, will they be vlogs or will they be tv on
the internet and does it matter?
