I am currently studying art history and curatorial practice in Chicago, with focus the various artistic practices which implement, translate and or construct of digital archives. This symposium would be an invaluable resource in my ongoing research, would I be allowed to attend even though I am not participating?

Warmth,
Pat Elifritz

Comment on Featuring: The Whale Hunt by M.E. Luka

The information Jonathan Harris provides about the structure of, and motivation for, the project – are as intriguing as the compelling visuals of the project. As author of the observed actions of preparing for the hunt through to preparing the whale for consumption, the most fulsome narrative obviously follows Jonathan. I’m interested that he also provides shorter intersecting pathways through his narrative via other ‘eyes’/photos, though they don’t have the resolved thread of his own. The ability of the viewer/user to manage the pacing and combination of elements makes this a more successful exploration than could be achieved through a straightforward documentary presentation.

Harris emphasizes the apolitical nature of his work, and I am curious to look at this in the context of the (equally apolitical?) Inuit-authored point of view about bowhead whales, and preservation attempts, for example, as documented at Isuma TV – http://www.isuma.tv/hi/en/isuma-news/inuit-celebrate-anniversary-bowhead-sanctuary-agreement

This documentary is a visual feast, with strong design components, and a sympathetic, personal, voyeuristic-style experience at its core. Looking forward to the next interactive documentary towards which you will draw our attention.

L’oeuvre de Jonathan Harris est vraiment intéressante! La narrativité semble ici pouvoir se déployer, du moins potentiellement, suivant divers modes résultant de l’interaction des spectateurs avec les unités créatives de bases. Cette relation à l’oeuvre repose sur la condition de l’altérer, dans le sens d’y laisser sa marque, afin que l’histoire nous soit racontée. Les frontières entre spectateur et auteur sont brouillées, se confondent…

Je pense que les travaux de Jean-Paul Fourmentraux pourraient vous intéresser (comme : http://www.evene.fr/livres/livre/jean-paul-fourmentraux-art-et-internet-17616.php).

CinerG me semble un projet très riche! Je suivrai son évolution avec intérêt!
