January/February Issue of Furthertxt
++++++++++++++++++++
In the new issue of Furthertxt:
Caroline Koebel is serving up a doggie dinner
Christian Nold is serving notice to those who wont listen
Nick Lambert is serving a sample of early computer art history
and Barley is serving a reminder that the changes we wait for might have even weightier implications.........
Is it possible to change the art historical recipe, or are we doomed to eternal over consumption?
Writers Featured:
Caroline Koebel endeavours through a range of activities to complicate commodity culture and hopefully shrug off its chilling effects. 'Dead Dogs, Live Presidents, Interferences' reacts to various communication and information bodies as if together they form a mass congestion that asks to be first observed, then reordered, and finally re-released so that each of the initial bodies can flow simultaneously alongside of and away from the others.
Christian Nold is an artist, activist and designer of tools for social change. Having published a book for Book Works about technologies of political control, he is now studying at the Royal College of Art. His work is focused on developing new tangible and conceptual tools that allow groups to create their own representations.
Dr Nick Lambert works at the CACHe Project, Birkbeck College, studying the origins of British Computer Art. This article looks at Computer Art's status as an artform, its origins and some unexplored facets of its history.
Barley is a writer and generally overdramatic-type. This poem was written when the writer went though a period of life change and was then given a new watch as a reward for academic achievement...and suddenly the world seemed a very different place when measured with this new time.
Please also peruse our back issues which feature written work by:
Patrick Lichty, The Critical Art Ensemble, Saul Albert, Marc Garrett, Lewis La Cook, Ryan Griffis, Millie Niss, Peter Yeoh, Gayle Wald, Bruce Eves...and more!
