BIO
Lewis LaCook makes things. He is a programmer/poet. He likes unstable objects. He doesn't eat enough. Send him all your money.
Re: [webartery] Re: RHIZOME_RAW: door: 1 minute QuickTime video
yes! it's EXACTLY like composing a poem---the compressed language of poetry translates well into the brevity of netcinema--
i'm really enjoying putting these short videos together--i find myself less-attached to what was at one time a dogmatic and almost evangelical belief in non-linear, reactive media...i still believe quite strongly in reactive artforms, and continue to work in that direction, but i'm also finding these short, linear video works refreshing...
it could also be that, writing code for a living now, i want to do something different when i PLAY...lol
in any case, thanks for the kind words...one of the reasons i started working in these short forms was your work, and some of the work i've seen on DVblog and other vlogs (i'm a huge fan of Fast Moving Animals and of David Elliott)...

Of course I love the poems pretty much unreservedly &
I can't help but feel there's a transposition of
*that* sensibility across into this new strand of
image work here.
I look forward to lots more..

The Opening-up of lewislacook,org
For years now, I've maintained a personal website that served more as an archive for my work than anything else.
While such repositories are useful,they can get dusty, and they don't often utilize the community-building power of Internet technology. The net should be a place where nodes intersect and collide, not a dead museum or drab resume. ight?
Thus, I'm opening up lewislacook.org to the community--for collaboration, announcments, discussion, personal blogging, even collaborative text creation...Mostly, I'd love to see here discussions and meetings on net.art, algorithmic art, netcinema and the like. But I also hope to see pure code-talk as well--specifically the usage of Open Source technologies.

Mary murmurs through threads
Does love forgive your abyss? Living next to bending smoke flecked with muscle with tissue upon rasped voices savage and just woke up, Mary's first morning Marlboro hangs acrid in the hot pinched air of our little yellow bedroom, now brown with syntax. When the kids are off to school and the house contracts to you again, and your work, you sit down in this struggle with light every morning brings, and you read Knuth's Art of Computer Programming, and all that math you don't know(product of Lorain City Schools). But motherfucker, don't you understand that's no excuse? It's a warm dark winter again, and love is angled around you, splitting off in serial streams

Children learning to be socially competent, gaining positive values, increasing self-esteem, and having what it can to help and has decided to give away a non-commercial email sending service without cost to charities and nonprofits in need," Mary murmurs through threads.
