So on the one hand I really believe that the act of documenting your life in public, like many are doing, is art in the way that Warhol's soup cans or Picasso's found object sculptures are art. On the other hand, since it's impossible to miss these videoblogs, I'll assume you're not talking about them in this context. So, here are more places to look that haven't been mentioned in this thread. I set up a second videoblog just for what I call "videoblog R&D" <URL: http://graymattergravy.com > I also think a lot of posts on my main videoblog fall into the artistic/performative category. At least that's the way I think of them. Here are a couple - there are lots more: <URL: http://michaelverdi.com/index.php/2005/03/30/videoblogging-week- day-4-untitled/ > <URL: http://michaelverdi.com/index.php/2005/07/20/the-yang-of- vlogging/ >
I think most of Ryanne's videoblog falls into the "life as art" category but she also has many posts that could be termed artistic/ performative or experimental. <URL: http://ryanedit.blogspot.com > Also I'd say pretty much everything on these sites fit: <URL: http://29fragiledays.blogspot.com > <URL: http://fastmovinganimals.blogspot.com/ > <URL: http://gnitseretni.blogspot.com/ > <URL: http://www.alexandersvideos.com/ > <URL: http://nordark.blogs.com/nordark/ > <URL: http://mariopaint.blogspot.com/ > <URL: http://www.nearlyenough.com/ > <URL: http://bottomunion.com/blog/ > <URL: http://www.human-dog.com/lab/ > These are sites that are different from the examples above but I, at least, think of them as art: http://www.dltq.org/ http://fauxpress.blogspot.com/ http://schlomolog.blogspot.com/ http://drinkingwithbob.blogspot.com/ http://www.momentshowing.net/ Damn! That's a hell of a list.
