Re: Re: Turbulence Commission:
Yes! this is *tremendous.*
< Many of the images are too small and should be
passed over for larger
images. Not sure if the size of the image is
readable so as to pass it over
if too small. Alternatively, the images could be
centered vertically in the
panels.>
agree with Jim -it's oddly disappointing to hit a
patch of semi concealed images in what is such a
rewarding piece, part of whose strength lies in the
*illusion* of intentional narrative -so what looks
like a frame uncompleted, unthought through, brings us
up short...
Still fantastic though!

Re: links
This is an interesting, well expressed and tempting
proposition but *is it true?*
You could mean one of two things, or both -one that
the artist herself maintains her work up there ( and
hence her sticking power and determination, admirable
qualities to be sure, is an index of the ultimate
value of the work, but of course this is subject to
the financial wherewithal - and perhaps also stuff
like state of mental & physical health - to maintain
and publicise a site -certainly an issue in those
parts of the world which are less connected)
Or..if you mean it's to do with whether copies of
artists' works are archived on other sites, then I
think this is a partial indicator, but this is surely
a bit of a beauty contest approach -I'm sure some work
that is feted and celebrated now *will* stand the test
of time but equally much of it will disappear. On the
other hand, I'm absolutely convinced that much work
that is currently ignored and marginal will move
centre stage over time.
I think the uncertainty is inevitable & I personally
welcome it -makes life much more interesting!
