I gave a talk at the University of Central England in Birmingham in October of 2004. I blogged about it back then, and you can read the archived post here, if you wish! Back in that old blog post I promised to share details of the book that was to result from these seminars that were being held at UCE in collaboration with Vivid. It’s late 2006 already, but I do keep my word!, so here is the link to the Central Books ordering website, if you would like a copy of “Hothaus Papers: Perspectives and Paradigms in Media Arts” for yourself! It’s a very nice book, with great essays by Simon Yuill, Sarah Cook, Anthony Auerbach, Caitlin Jones, Drew Hemment, and many more.
I’ve also recently released two more reviews on Rhizome News: Practicing Everyday Life, about the recent Conflux festival in Brooklyn, and The Art of Networks, about Jonah Brucker-Cohen’s recent solo exhibition at Oboro in Montreal.
