agit trains

richard - Apr 5, 2007 I’m not exploring the notion of art so much as that of the documenting of ordinary live by ordinary people. I didn’t mention Engel because I don’t know much about his work and theories yet. Is it Art if it’s banal? If everyone but the filmmaker falls asleep when watching the film, isn’t it just glorified vacation pictures? You forgot Engel in the US.

How many of you have a digital photo camera and how many of you have uploaded pictures you’ve taken to the web? How many of you have browsed through thousand of stranger’s photographs? I was in a lecture a few days ago and we were discussing jennycam and how it was something new, something that would lead to BigBrother. Apparently she was creating something new, something that had never thought of before.
