Hi Daniel,

This reply is a bit late, but there are Rhizomers and net.artists out west. The Art, Technology, and Culture series at Berkedley that Rachel refers to is at:
http://ieor.berkeley.edu/~goldberg/lecs

You also might want to check out the NetWork and packet series that I curate at New Langton Arts in SF, at http://www.newlangtonarts.org

…and of course other myriad projects out here, for instance, this one endeavoring to preserve digital art that, coincidentally, partners with Rhizome and others in NYC, at http://www.bampfa.berkeley.edu/ciao/avant_garde.html

Good to meet you, welcome.
