Currently reading "New Philosophy for New Media” by Mark Hansen. Any thoughts on the topic of present state of new media? Arts relationship to "smart devices"? I just downloaded a torrent of books on new media / tech society / iOS programming, and am rekindling an old interest for inspiration. Looking for non-Western thought, and in general to collect more sources / resources / ideas on new media art practices. Also, looking for folks who are interested in online based video-digital-art exchange / collaboration / remix projects, to well . . make something maybe for show or just creativity for the sake of it, the learning, the connection, the fun.
