prehysteries of new media Take a More Realistic Approach to Your To-Do List with the 3 + 2 Rule There are SO many grammar and spelling problems in this article, I found it VERY difficult to follow what the author was trying to say. Normally I can look the other way, but when the grammar is so bad it interferes with the message, it needs to be fixed. "Why bother why you will be working the whole day anyway?" * should be: Why bother when you will be working the whole day anyway? "Or sometimes I haven't been switching for a longer time and then I completely loose track about the project and it took me hours to get on the track again." * s/b: Or sometimes I go a long time without switching and then I completely lose track of the project and it takes me hours to get on track again. "Context switching is ridiculously easy because this way you don't switch just very few times per day!" * s/b: Context switching is ridiculously easy because this way you only switch a few times per day! "…considering how easy is to switch between (small number of) projects, just do switch!" #corrections

Voluto e diretto dei docenti Claudio Larcher e Gianpietro Gai, il programma prevedeva lo sviluppo di idee e la successiva realizzazione di prototipi e arredi funzionali destinati agli spazi di un container. Oggetti che sono stati allestiti in un vero e proprio villaggio del ‘temporaneo’, grazie alla collaborazione con l’azienda altoatesina Niederstaetter, che ha fornito una struttura composta da tre moduli abitativi, provvisti di terrazza sul tetto. Le proposte di arredo, che dovevano rispondere a tre precisi ambiti di sviluppo (living, working e fun), avrebbero dovuto adeguarsi alle esigenze multifunzionali di trasformabilità e trasportabilità. PROGETTIBITTA è un set di sgabelli salva-spazio pensati per essere appesi alla parete. Un SÉPARÉ nato dall’unione di una scala con un tappeto.
W E S T E R N D I G I T A L Anthology Film Archives : About - Overview Anthology Film Archives is an international center for the preservation, study, and exhibition of film and video, with a particular focus on independent, experimental, and avant-garde cinema. Founded in 1969 by Jonas Mekas, Jerome Hill, P. Adams Sitney, Peter Kubelka, and Stan Brakhage, Anthology in its original conception was a showcase for the Essential Cinema Repertory collection. An ambitious attempt to define the art of cinema by means of a selection of films which would screen continuously, the Essential Cinema collection was intended to encourage the study of the medium’s masterworks as works of art rather than disposable entertainment, making Anthology the first museum devoted to film as an art form.
Collecting Contemporary Art Means Collecting Digital Art Petra Cortright. RGB,D-LAY, 2011. Webcam video file. Edition of 5. 1 AP. Courtesy of the artist and Steve Turner Contemporary, Los Angeles. Last night, Rhizome was the beneficiary of the Paddles On! At the start of the evening, I hosted a panel discussion titled "Collecting Contemporary Art Means Collecting Digital Art." For the panelists, the title was also provocative for its use of the phrase "digital art." During the panel, Sacks also argued for the alternative term "new media," as this suggests more of a continuum of practices based on artistic experimentation with new tools, encompassing not only digital artists but also electronics tinkerers of the 1970s or biotech artists who work with DNA. At Rhizome, we describe our field as "artistic practices that engage technology." A few hours before the panel, Annie Werner, arts evangelist of Tumblr, published this post:
