website with ian bogost as editor. about games, but with a different perspective. connects games with political etc. agendas. there are games that are purely invented for subversive purposes. check out the post under robotrons without the guns. it leads to more sites like Retro Remakes where they come up with new variations of old games with political slant.

Works and Exhibitions of Paul De Marinis
[http://www.well.com/~demarini/exhibitions.htm]
Remember the artpiece 'Raindance' by Paul De Marinis that Lonce showed us in lecture? (The one where the audience interacts with the artpiece by moving the umbrella.) It is a very interesting artpiece and after seeing his other artpieces, you will realise that Paul has his own unique way in bringing the notion of interactivity into his works. Have a look and perhaps you will be able to find from this website a few interesting artpieces to be included in your curation.

The Living Image
[http://www.24hourmuseum.org.uk/exh_gfx_en/ART21889.html]
The Living Image was an exhibition of a piece of large scare 'technoetic art'. Roma Patel, Graham Nicholls and Trudi Entwhistle, two artists and a theatre designer came together to create a virtual world over a space of 2 kilometers at the Dana Centre. It would be a Virtual Reality world of familiar spaces in London but the artists understand that such an exhibition makes people notice things about places that they never would otherwise. One of the marketing taglines of this exhibition was "Ready to experience a multi-sensory psychogeography?" and is indeed apt in describing what this exhibition aims to achieve.

Curator 2.0
[http://shanebrennan.net/climate/curatorial-essay/]
Brennan Shane in this essay argues for using New Media to curate New Media. Unlike traditional physical exhibition venues, weblogs offer unlimited space and an interactive platform for the curation of new media artwork. Weblogs are also not limited to geographical location, hence offering practically unlimited reach. Like Web 2.0, curating with new media allows content to be broken down and sent across networks. Curator 2.0 offers a space that is open for the exchange of ideas, collaborative creation and the accumlation of collective wisdom - something very much like this Wiki you are reading.

[http://www.scotthobbs.co.uk/] Scott Hobbs and the Attigo TT.
Scott Hobbs is a UK based engineer who worked on the Attigo TT while he was still doing his 4th year at Dundee University. What compelled me to pick his work is that he brought about a new meaning to turntablism (a form of DJ-ing) in the sense that the old turntables (even on modern contemporary ones) has to have a platter and a 'needle' at the very least and in order to play the music, one would need records. Over the years, cds and mp3s came into play but they still had the same concept of the DJ having to use audio cues while looking at a rotating platter with the record on it. The Attigo TT revolutionized this notion by adding a touchscreen to the turntable and instead of just having audio cues, the DJ now can have a visual cue as well. Although it is still in its developmental stages, the Attigo TT has received a lot of attention especially from the DJ Community. I do understand that most of us don't actually know how the 'old' turntables and this 'new' turntables work so I've placed 2 videos showing how both of them work.

She is a producer of creative machines & machines that independently make art when cross-pollinated with human interaction. Her works are designed to heighten people’s awareness of the social space they share – as well as the uniqueness of their moment within it. Her installations may sense levels of activity, the scale of space, and/or the movement of people and in return, they provide a visual record of life in that space. Raaf's interest is in defining new ways in which generative and responsive environments might provide useful or poignant information to a community. Raaf’s website includes many images, videos and descriptions of her electronic and installation projects as well as useful links to other new media websites such as Rhizome and newmediaFix.

Into the Pixel
Into the Pixel is an art competition and exhibition that brings together fine arts experts as well as experts from the interactive entertainment media industry to explore and celebrate the art of the video game. It also serves as an appreciation and recognition of artists responsible for the beautiful visuals we see in video games today. It is in its fifth year running already. The art works are created using game software most gamers would be familiar with, like Guild Wars and Half-Life. The website has a good archive with plenty of pictures, though it lacks proper text description of the art works. The commentaries by Jurors of the competition who choose the winners make up for it, as you will get their insight of what they think of the exhibition and the art form itself. So you get a pretty good idea of what's in a curator's head, as most of these Jurors are professional curators in museums. Some of them are also virgins of gaming, and thus some commented on their first time experience with gaming as an art form. Not to mention, the advocacy of video games as an art form, which for me personally is pleasing as I've long been a fan of video games and strongly believe in its aesthetic value. For non-gamers, this is a chance to peek of what you've been missing out.

"Using the formal language of the computer program or game to create systems which interrogate seemingly mundane experiences such as writing email, using search engines, playing video games, or saving data to the hard drive, Flanagan reworks these activities to blur the line between the social uses of technology, and what these activities tell us about the technology user themselves."

Machinima Filmfest 2008
[http://festival.machinima.org/]
Machinima is a digital film production technique involving the use of computer-generated imagery (CGI) to create narrative works. Unlike animated films such as Finding Nemo or Wall-E that are developed using professional animation, modelling and production processing, Machinima works are fondly characterized by the employment of interactive 3D game engines such as those used in popular multiplayer role-playing games like World of Warcaft or first-person shooters such as Half-Life and Halo. By basing narrative works on the products of these gaming engines, Machinima artists propogate the notion of putting game tools into ends, expressions and alternate contexts outside the original intention of the game developers.
The Machinima Filmfest is an annual artistic showcase featuring award-winning international Machinima works. Spanning a total of 15 award categories, this year's Machinima Filmfest is held in New York where its parent orgnizaion, the Academy of Machinima Arts and Sciences, is based in. One can find links to the works of award winners and award nominees on the Machinima Filmfest website.

Neosurrealism
[http://neosurrealism.artdigitaldesign.com/]
Neosurrealism is a combined imagery of fantastical visions and perceptions in fine art painting, digital art graphic, and photography. In the mid 1980s, modern computer technologies brought tons of additional depicting power to contemporary artists. The arrival of desktop publishing and the introduction of software applications introduced a generation of artists to computer image manipulation and 3D image creation that had previously been unachievable. Neosurrealism is a philosophical, conceptual, artistic movement that acts as a revival of surrealist thought in relation to the new culture of the Internet.

About Curation
Basically, the author of this article tries to explore the issues and problems of trying to curate a new media artwork. Some of these issues include the honouring of the artistic concepts that the artists hope to exhibit, and also the issues art museum management. The author, Beth Granter, attempts to achieve her aim of examining these issues by using 3 case studies, namely 'Desert Rain' by Blast Theory, 'Desktop Subversibles' by Jonah Brucker-Cohen, and the 'Uncomfortable Proximity' by Harwood @ Mongrel. The author also hopes to achieve a better and deeper understanding of the new media art specific curatorial processes and practices through the critical analysis of the 3 artworks. I feel that this website will be helpful to the students for the final project because we can gain a better understanding of how curatorial work is actually being done and what are some of the issues involved in curating a piece of work. Furthermore, we can also, through the website, gain a better idea of how to interpret the curation of an artwork not just from one, but many other aspects as well.
