Pocket cinema: Reactive Books by John Maeda

September 17, 2010

You know, my digital dad is media artist and designer John Maeda… of course, he doesn’t know that I even exist… I mean, he has lotsa digital kids scattered  around the cyberspace…

Oh, how I like his work, because his books are like the Tao Te Ching for us, digital natives trying to find a glimpse of nature in rows and rows of pixels…

Interview with Ivana Jozic, part 1: Opening the channels of expressiveness…

Back in May this year, performer Ivana Jozic led a workshop titled Imagination / Transformation at the Tala Dance Centre in Zagreb. Ivana graciously found some time to give me an interview about her career and artwork. This talk was also possible thanks to choreographer and one of the founders of  Tala Dance Centre – Tamara Curic.

July 26, 2010

Judy Chicago is shown as pioneer in many senses, resolving the stereotypes of female art, textile art, community art…., assaulting century-long models of aesthetics, patriarchal society and men-assigned monumentality.
