Bits, bytes and the rhetoric of practice:new media artist statements 2007
Full text linkThe intent of Bits, Bytes and the Rhetoric of Practice: New Media Artist Statements, 2007, was to get a sense of what is happening in New Media from the ground level - from the artists who are creating it. This edition is a snapshot of New Media now, and rather than depicting a streamlined, neatly categorized sample of genres, it magnifies the rich diversity that is New Media practice today.The intermingling of practices from both new and traditionally established art media is apparent, as is cross-fertilization with other disciplines. The ongoing relationship with the all-pervasive media information barrage embeds New Media within the culture at large that it both belongs to and simultaneously serves to critique.Many of the participants' chosen keywords, ideas and practices intersect in ways that demonstrate the protean dynamic of Intermedia, revealing interrelationships between different media practices and ideas that combine or converge to create new forms. This self-reflexive process within new media culture results in a state of flux that allows for continual rejuvenation, so that New Media remains always relevant, surprising and ground-breaking.This is the most international edition of media-N to date. We received submissions from all over North and Central America as well as from Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia. Thank you to everyone who contributed

No full textFurry Story is an anarchic 3D cgi tale of Fredglob the foulmouthed goblin and his wacky human and goblin friends, and is produced by The Brothers Dimm, Magic Stone Productions, and the BBC Northern Ireland. Jason Robertson created Furry Story in the eighties as a children’s tale, but late developed the script for a more adult audience. “Aiming the animation at the adult market means we get away with a lot of humour that would be edited out in kids programming.” says Robertson. The animation has been described as “ET from Hell” and “Shrek meets Southpark”. The story tells of a little girl, Janey, and her escape from feuding parents, and her adventures with her not-so-imaginary goblin friend Fredglob
