These are all the things in Siobhan's archives tagged as "art". If you want to narrow it down, you can use more than one tag, seperating them with a space.
I am, obviously, a fan of user-generated content. The old models of top-down publishing within the creative arts are defunct. Because of sites like Flickr and del.cio.us, the web is bristling with new forms of creativity - communities and identities springing up all over the place, exuding life, spontanaeity and 'art'.

Ever had a thought that seems like a good idea, but you just haven't quite worked out the logistics of it?
A round-up of stuff going on in the artworld - again, something I've been meaning to link to - it's put together by one of my students. I just love how the first article features Lost Vagueness - it's like my little worlds collide...
A few interesting real/virtual crossover art installations/ideas I just wanted to bookmark for myself - [we-make-money-not-art.com]
Full length QuickTime downloadable version of Dali and Buñuel's film, which, IMHO contains the most graphic and disturbing film sequence of all time - (Via Eyebeam reBlog again)
I have issues with computer graphics. Serious issues. Many years ago, I used to get very excited about the developments that were being made in CGI technology ... I remember one particular moment when I was about ten years old, and a friend of mine was telling me how someone had worked out a way to smooth the edges of shapes, by blurring them slightly.
Davis & Davis, The Ralphs (Dad, Mom, Baby, Sis) 1999 - (via we-make-money-not-art.com)
If you're in Leeds tomorrow (Thursday) at midday, some of our students' work will be screened on the big screen in Millennium Square - it'll also be shown interspersed with the normal content for the days following. I'm rather proud of them :)

Wow, I'm absolutely loving these - so much better than the idea I had the other day of taking little groups of pixels from photographs and enlarging them.
"An evening of live cutting-edge digital sound art with internationally-acclaimed sound artist collective goto10." - at the Dukes in Lancaster tonight, from 7.30pm. (Free entry). I should, really, go to this, but I have a feeling it will annoy me
Issue five of the Art Journal what I make - I should have linked to this weeks ago :unsure: I know it's not up everyone's street, but if you look at no other pieces, you HAVE to watch "Peaman". Utter genius :)
Since, you know, there seems to be a bit of discussion about them, I thought I'd just quickly link to a small explanation of what's going on in my stripey pictures.
"Avatar Machine is a system which replicates the aesthetics and visuals of third person gaming, allowing the user to view themselves as a virtual character in real space via a head mounted interface." - I'm fascinated by the identity-implications of self
"Luis Drayton - virtuoso artist, cartoonist and photomonteur combined!" - Luis (of Six Inch Killaz) has been shoving a ton of things online recently, and I keep forgetting to link to it.
When was the last time you did something utterly brilliant?
