Interesting point: This is a posting from the Arts Council England "arts news" mailing list. ---------- New on The Hyperliterature Exchange/trAce for February 2005 - Should web art be free or should it be paid for? Many new media writers and artists regard asking for payment as philosophically objectionable and a good way to lose audience numbers. Others believe that it's just as reasonable to ask payment for web art as to ask it for a book or a painting. To read the views of a number of web artists on this subject, visit http://hyperex.co.uk/reviewpayments.php; or to read an article about it, written by Edward Picot for the trAce organistion, visit http://trace.ntu.ac.uk/Opinion/index.cfm?article=129. - Edward Picot personal website - http://edwardpicot.com Thanks Kerrie Davies Creative Media Officer Herbert Media Herbert Art Gallery & Museum Jordan Well Coventry CV1 5QP Tel: 024 7683 3276 Fax: 024 7683 2410 The Herbert: Arts·Media·Museum·History Centre A development in the cultural heart of Coventry -----Original Message----- From: Dominique Fontaine [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: 04 February 2005 14:43 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [NEW-MEDIA-CURATING] Nouvelles de la Fondation Daniel Langlois / News from the Daniel Langlois Foundation [English version below] [Apologies for cross-posting / Veuillez excuser les envois multiples] Le Centre de recherche et de documentation (CR+D) de la fondation Daniel Langlois s'est vu octroyer une importante subvention de recherche par le Conseil de recherches en sciences humaines du Canada (CRSH).
