. . . . . . . . . . . . .<BR><BR>"... I've certainly seen the failure of street
protests against the Iraq war <BR>in the past five years in the U.S. Marches and
protests were not being <BR>covered in the mass media, so people lost interest
in coming out. The last <BR>protest I went to in about 2007 was dismal and
pathetic. I made a work <BR>subsequently called AntiWar404 that features
hundreds of abstracts lifted <BR>from pro-peace and anti-war websites that have
disappeared in the past five <BR>years.What I've learned from following the
online aspects of the anti-war <BR>movement is that there are moments when
people will move out of their <BR>ideological comfort zone to endorse
resistance, and when that moment passes, <BR>it's much more difficult to build a
movement. Unfortunately at present it <BR>seems that this arc of enthusiasm is
governed largely by the corporate mass <BR>media coverage of current events. But
to the extent that social media, <BR>independent media and other cooperative
initiatives can be used to catalyze <BR>social actions, there is some potential
to bypass the futility of the <BR>spectacular idiocy that prevails
today"...<BR><BR>Andy Deck, from "Andy Deck and the Net art: the licence to be
an artist" by <BR>Marco Mancuso<BR><BR>. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
