Re: Re: Re: Preserving Work That Falls Outside the Norm - NYTIMES


I'm not sure if we should be too hasty in stopping a net art work in its
tracks - what about giving the artist a voice in this, privately or
openly - and negotiating something...

something decent could come out of this - if he's not a real spammer
then their is a connected context - although I have been wrong before...

>Mindaugas Gapsevicius (mi_ga) was born in 1974 in Lithuania, he lives and works in Lubeck, Germany and Vilnius, Lithuania.
>Having studied visual arts in Academy of Arts in Vilnius and in Muthesius-Hochschule in Kiel, he works as a network administrator at ISNM, International School of New Media, in Lubeck. In addition he is working as a guest lecturer at University of Arts in Berlin.
>Mindaugas Gapsevicius is one of the initiators of o-o institutio media which was established in 1998 and a co-author of net.art project asco-o. As an artist, he uses to be more often anonymous as real. He likes to play. Acording to him, the play is the core of his works, the reaction to the surroundings and the action of his vision.
