Replic**t currently a resident on furtherstudio)

http://www.furtherfield.org/furtherstudio/

FurtherStudio is an exploratory, set up to create online, real-time, net
art residencies with net-based artists. Each residency lasts for 3
months, during which time the artists need not leave their studio or
home environments, as the FurtherStudio web facility offers a public
window on the artist's PC desktop as they work.

The curatorial theme of 'appropriation and ownership of ideas, services,
products and images' is explored with the artist through a programme of
open studio events and discussions between artists, net art critics and
anyone interested in exploring creativity on the Internet..Visitors can
further experiment with the curatorial theme in the Visitors' Studio,
uploading, mixing and exhibiting their own works.
