We tend to regard our own memories as private representations of our
living experiences. In turn, we say that we "share" such representations
with others. It seems no accident that our language for describing the
workings of human memory bears close similarity ...

Kinograffiti continued: the analog and the digital

FROM TECH90s (http://www.tech90s.net)

If today we find this sense of digital media in any way familiar, not to
mention appealing, it is perhaps because we have come to regard its
artifacts as ephemeral and consistent with a sense of passing time, a
momentariness to which we ...

Kinograffiti: intro

FROM TECH90s (http://www.tech90s.net)

In my work I am concerned with a number of issues arising around two
ideals: the analog and the digital. Though these modes today are
considered technically and somehow sensorially different, I doubt the

raw kid vid

Here's food for thought worth seeing.

An excellent Boston area video artist, Roberto Arevalo, does award
winning raw video with urban youth. The work has been shown
