On Collaboration, the Arts, Technology and Democracy

September 29, 2004 in Main Page | No comments

I’m off in a couple of hours to a four-day conference at the Banff New Media Institute, where I will be a panel member on Saturday. Seems like a great opportunity to meet some interesting people, and perhaps throw another stone into the ever-rippling pond of ideas, links and connections made possible by the Internet and the blogosphere.

Thanks to the Happy Tutor for helping cast a first stone, with his blog post titled “For the Banff Conference - A Bridge to some Online Conversations about Democracy, Giving, and Technology”

Thanks also to Tom Matrullo for his blog post that helps us begin to link our notions of a commons (pristine, middle-of-New-England-town-empty-spaces) to another view of the commons as lively, vibrant public renderings (zocalo) of an imperfect past and present shared by all for the ongoing construction of public memory.
