Dear friends (current and future),
I am doing some pre-exhibition research around artists currently working
with virtual reality and would be really interested to see what crumb list
members thought were key works, texts are in the field? Obviously this is a
potentially huge field, the limits of which can be divided and sub-divided
according to many different criteria - technologies, moments in time,
ideas.
I would love to hear your thoughts. Is VR simply too big a subject to
explore in this way?
The only thing I can offer in response is to post about the final
exhibition and also to include a credit line in the show that references
the fact that research was gathered the crumb network.
Please feel free to email me directly . . . though I ask this in the spirit
of open research . . .
Thank you in advance!
Laura Sillars
