Good Friday
Being new to blogging, I am somewhat at a loss for something to say that could actually have any relevance to the potential reader. As an artist, I am concerned with ideas around authorship and reception. Are they related? Of course they are.
Since the publication of Barth's "Death of the Author" there has never been a time when the concepts put forward in that text are as real as they are in this society of web based publication. Though currently much maligned, Web 2.0 is an excellent example of how content/container are separated from their source in a manner that reflects the reader's contribution to the process of writing/imaging.
I have no idea whether these ideas will figure prominently in this blog, but right at this moment, it is what I am thinking of.
