Diploma / Project / Part 1
First part of my diploma project, questionning navigation.
The main question was : How to bring contemporary art criticism
from magazines to Internet ? (by producing something else
than an agenda or an exhibitions review/advertising site)
The idea of the project was to lean on Internet tools and opportunities
in order to give access to a degree of thinking and knowledge which is,
like contemporary art is, always in progress and arguable.
I worked with art critics and curators on imaginating what the
editorial policy of a contemporary art magazine on the web would be.
We came up with the following idea : three months issues, dealing
with a specific theme according to the News (art or sociological
or political news...).
For every issue, people from the art world or people asked to participate
would use those three months to write and add articles / videos /
sound-files and so build up a whole content about the theme :
in progress, dialectical, multiple, etc.
