Art, Power, and Communication

(Some simple thoughts without any wish to make them more profound)

I intentionally wrote this paper directly in English which I am not good
in and I know that what I am going to say may sound rather declarative,
generalised and clumsy. But the only alternative ...

I applaud the concept of investigating youth culture through how it

Thoughts on ISEA

Some Further thoughts on Electronic Art…in relation to ISEA/DEAF

At ISEA/DEAF so much focus was placed on 'interaction' that many notions
like content, aesthetics etc… ran secondary to the nature of this
interaction… A lot of work looked at interaction in different ways,
beyond the keyboard and mouse ...

the Liberation of NameSpace

Stalinistic limitations on the possibilities of network names are a
legacy of the cold war mentality which exists in the current "domain"
name system (DNS) of the internet.

The "organizational" nature of net names reflect the bureaucratic,
militaristic mindset of the centralized agency, InterNIC, now operating
as a private, highly ...

Festival Art: Fujihata at ISEA and Mikami at DEAF

In a fitful exhibition of virtual domains at ISEA 96, of all the worlds
on show, I would want to live in Masaki Fujihata's *Beyond Pages*. It is
not its evocation of childish wonder, nor the classicism of its decorous
symmetry, but that in Fujihata's installation delight, formal perfection

Response to Roger Malina on ISEA96

I'd like to add something to Roger Malina's comments on ISEA 96
Rotterdam.

Yes, electronic art … always an awkward term, but at least it allows a
good breadth, and a certain amount of chaos. Somehow or other the ISEA
conferences steer the discussion forward.

My worry goes the other ...
