The Sunday afternoon free seminar on “Best Practices for Artists”, with presentations by Mark Hellar, Jeffrey Martin and Ethan Bach, was highly informative and led to lively discussions among about 20-25 attendees and the presenters.
Once again, the three ‘experts’ illustrated their talks with Powerpoint presentations that offered examples. These included specific installations and media works at MoMA and SFMoMA, film projections by Paul Sharits, Nam June Paik + Bruce Conner, early Mac Hypercard iconography,
restaging of Lynn Hirschman works, a recap of TechFocus III: Caring for Software-based Art, held last Sept. at the Guggenheim Museum, and an update on the Matters in Media Art initiative.
The highly informed audience asked critical questions and entered into a lively and often very technical discussion. By all accounts, the program was an educational and outreach success.
Most participants walked over to the CURRENTS show at El Museo Cultural afterwards
