A very good time-line drawn here --it made me choke on my coffee though.

It's also a decent reminder of how fond Mew Media Art is of time- 
lines in general and it prompted me to think of a low-fi selection  
made a few months back called, 'Broken Histories':

http://www.low-fi.org.uk/?session=lowfi_list&lid=17

And just for the sake of discussion, the flip side to Andreas' series  
of sign posts is of course, that anything can be re-interpreted and  
re-visited in relation to New Media.  We could add topiary to the  
list if we wanted to (some relation to rapid prototyping perhaps ;)  
or food hygiene, or dry stone walling or...

best wishes,

Jon
