week 8 - reading post 09


read four pages and respond with a total of three questions.
  netart 2004 - Ping Melody
  netart 2007 - Feraltrade
  netart 2008 - Conch
  netart 2009 - VisitorsStudio
    John Hopkins
  1. Within the Ping Melody post the author mentions a divide between the 'Art World' and 'Net Art', is this because the two should not belong together, or just that the 'Art World' has not yet accepted 'Net Art'?
  2. How did the artist Isabelle Jenniches create 'the Call'? I got lost in the description.
  3. Can someone elaborate on what the statement 'Operational Term is Stimulate' please?

  1. Re#2: Isabelle gathered single webcam images (on a webcam that has zoom & pan capabilities) over many weeks or months and then stitched all the images together into a huge digital image (many gigs in size) -- for gallery exhibitions, she would make very large prints of these -- the level of detail in the images is very high, so that it is quite interesting to look very close at the total mosaic. It doesn't translate so well into a web-based image, but the prints are quite impressive...
