In an era of privacy paranoia, government spying on its own citizens, identity theft as a familiar problem, the idea behind Life Sharing may be more radical today.
Was this such a naive time? Maybe less titillating, Life Sharing creators Eva and Franco Mattes went far beyond the voyeuristic camera eye view into student Jennifer Ringely who launched JenniCam in 1996, posting regular still images every 3 seconds to the web, stopping in 2003.
Revisiting the early net art… where are they now? This is what I hope to do here.
35 web art sites from the 1990s and early 2000s- HTML, perl, flash, shockwave, wired plants, linux radio… from 0100101110101101.org to Jodi to RSG to Torolab, I will explore each site, or what remains of it, in a new post.
This summer I enjoyed the growth and harvesting of sunflower seeds, and special ones at that- they came from an internet friend in Canada!

Jim Groom’s explorations for The Internet Course he is co-teaching with Paul Bond and Paul’s post on Gopher got me sroting the neurons and combing through the archives of my early 1990s days as an Instructional Technologist at the Maricopa Community College. Actually I started as a “Programmer Analyst / Instructional Systems”. I found on […]
DISCLAIMER: This is likely in bad taste and not nearly as funny (or at all) as I thought. I have and continue to commit a few of the sins I lampoon (the campfire photo is usually on slide 1). The real point is to wonder why so few people talk about storytelling in a presentation […]
I’m no David Kernohan but share a little thing I use probably way to much for blues riffs. It’s basically the one from Steppenwolf’s The Pusher It’d probably still not easy to see the fingers in the video, but I have someone who can show you better. If you have not seen Soundslice, you gotta […]
