Dear List,
I'm away again next week, and just a reminder that George Khut posted a very interesting query about collecting a while ago which got rather submerged by PhD excitement - if anyone has advice for him, please do get in touch.
Again on collecting, news of an event in the UK in October which has elements concerning collecting new media art:
==
The Digital Aesthetic Conference Oct 5th and Saturday Oct 6th will be held at the University of Central Lancashire and will be jointly chaired by Sean Cubitt<http://digitalaesthetic.org.uk/participant/sean-cubitt/>, Professor of Film and Television Studies, Goldsmith’s College, London and Dr Sarah Cook<http://digitalaesthetic.org.uk/participant/sarah-cook/> of CRUMB (Curatorial Research for Upstart Media Bliss), University of Sunderland.
The Digital Aesthetic website is now up and running at: http://digitalaesthetic.org.uk/
Please feel free to forward it on to your associates and contacts. Information on how to book conference tickets is online - an early bird price is available for purchases up until 9th September so do encourage interested contacts to book as soon as possible.
You can follow the project on Twitter at: @digi_aesthetic3

Yours,
Beryl
