_____________________________________________________________ artnetwebINDEX 1.6 Monday, October 14, 1996 A biweekly newsletter about artnetweb http://artnetweb.com anw@interport.net This newsletter is available on our website: http://artnetweb.com/newsletter/ _____________________________________________________________ Greetings from artnetweb: We've been busy the past few weeks, which is why this edition of the newsletter is a little late getting out. We'd like to say we were out partying but the truth is we've been working on a number of projects that are about to see the light of day (or, rather, light of screen) and we'll tell you more about them in upcoming newsletters. One project we're involved in is the creation of "The Foundation for Digital Culture" or "DigiCult" for short. It started informally at the recent CyberSoho when participants met to talk about how independent arts-based Internet content developers can become more visible and economically viable. The first formal meeting was held this month at Postmasters Gallery where it was decided to create a group Web site and investigate alternative business models. We'll let you know the URL for the Web site as soon as it's available and keep you up-to-date with DigiCult. In the meantime, if you're an independent developer you might want to check out this online forum sponsored by WP-Studio and @NY to discuss the issues involved: http://www.totalny.com/cybersocket/voxpop/borthwick/1096.html As always we invite your comments and suggestions. Our general email address is: anw@interport.net Best regards, Remo Campopiano | remo@artnetweb.com Robbin Murphy | murph@artnetweb.com _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________ For up-to-date listings of art funding check out The Art DEADLINES List http://rtuh.com/adl _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________ ________________ AROUND artnetweb ________________ VRML SIG SIG member Robert Michael Smith will give a presentation on VRML Sculptures at SCAN '96 at the Franklin Institute Science Museum, Philadelphia, Pa, November 1-3.
