Shock art turns on the Tate

'I'd rather go to Alton Towers than Tate Modern,' says rebel artist Chapman

David Smith, arts and media correspondent

They have turned shock and awe into an art form and set the agenda for the
tumult over the Turner Prize. Now the Chapman brothers have broken another
taboo by biting the hand that feeds them.

Jake Chapman, half of the pair dubbed 'the Brothers Grim', has unleashed
an excoriating attack on the Tate Modern and Saatchi galleries, accusing
them of threatening the future of art by bowing to the lowest common
denominator.

He called the Tate a 'monument to absolute cultural saturation' and said
he would rather take a ride at Alton Towers than look at some of its
contents. Charles Saatchi's gallery was 'simply an expression of one man's
ownership'.

Chapman attacked his fellow 'Young British Artists', saying they were part
of a growing cult of celebrity, and claimed some now use art as 'a symptom

No Web Art in the Whitney Biennial?

not that 'web art is not communicating to curators' but that curators (Iles,
Singer, Momin) are not communicating to netart.

supporting netart' policy matter.

'Memex' by Mark Lafia

'Vannevar Bush was never directly involved with the creation or development
of the Internet. He died before the creation of the World Wide Web. Yet many
consider Bush to be the Godfather of our wired age often making reference to
his 1945 essay, "As We May Think." In his article, Bush described a
theoretical machine he called a "memex," which was to enhance human memory
by allowing the user to store and retrieve documents linked by associations.
This associative linking was very similar to what is known today as
hypertext. Indeed, Ted Nelson who later did pioneering work with hypertext
credited Bush as his main influence (Zachary, 399). Others, such as J.C.R.
Licklider and Douglas Englebart have also paid homage to Bush.'
