Hi all
The internet has been instrumental for musicians/artists
trying to make a living, for those without recording contracts/commissions or
for those who want to stay independent. The same applies to other art areas.
Like anything web driven, its out there, all you have to do
is look for it.
Unsigned bands/singers/composers
Podcasting
Painters
Theatre Groups
All of these take advantage of a wider audience than ever
before available. We as web-developers/designers are there to help them. If you
are passionate about any of these things.... get involved! The extent of this
goes far beyond a couple of mediocre films. Look at the seed changes in culture
in web enabled countries, you'll find plenty of evidence that the web has
changed a great deal about the way we live our lives.
As far as books go, do an Amazon search for Matt Beaumont,
he's right there on the button ('E: a novel', the E before Christmas).
Its a good discussion point, but not for this list perhaps.
All the best
Peter Goddard

Subject: [WSG] A web culture
Why there is not any movie, song or books (novels) that deal about web? I mean, it's an instrument that have changed our live (and it will change it again). It seams like art isn't interested in.
Why? Why do not exist a web culture?
