Researching


Hi Amanda
I assume you've trawled through the archives of the front page of Rhizome itself? Lots of good video stuff.

There's also DVblog :

http://www.dvblog.org

where we post an art video (or something of interest to those involved with art video) every weekday...

There's an uneven but stimulating book from 2007 about YouTube ( downloadable as a pdf) here:

http://networkcultures.org/wpmu/portal/publications/inc-readers/videovortex/

also worth looking over at PAM:

best wishes

Millie Niss (1973 - 2009)


I can't believe she's gone.
And I can't believe I'll never receive another stern, funny,
clever, closely argued and kind e mail from her.

She was utterly unique and an example, both artistic and moral.

We posted a tribute to her on DVblog on Tuesday:

http://dvblog.org/?p=5022

which has a link to a wonderful video she and her mother, Martha Deed,
made last year, which really gives you a feel for her humour, warmth and courage.

Courage clearly runs in the family for Martha is continuing to update the blog they worked on together:

Of course it doesn't make easy reading at the moment but it is, as it has been since its inception,
a profound antidote to the glib, the cynical and the superficial in our lives.
