FloatingArts. Further Readings
The idea of giving rise to this blog has born in the middle of a workshop, as said in my profile.
But in these last two years I had focused myself in these topics, which is to say the fruition of art or videos on the net, and also experiencing the big content called “New Media Art”, through the use of net sites, YouTube and exhibitions.
Special thanks to Guido Bartorelli, whom I worked with in the exhibition Art//Tube, which was held in Padova in 2010. You can still view it online at this link http://www.youtube.com/user/PadovaArtTube which is an important part of the exhibition itself.
Special thanks to MediaArtTube’s Channel, a channel in YouTube created by researcher and artist Brigitta Zics, which was the theme of my first degree Thesis, and which has been an important point to start my research about the fruition of Art on the Net. http://www.youtube.com/user/MediaArtTube
