I met her like ten years ago when I leading training workshops for arts educators, artists, and arts organizations throughout New York State on how to use the Internet. Susan was doing these amazing collaborative, user-generated content projects over the Internet. I was teaching Web1.0

Venue as content platform instead of content provider: the museum becomes a stage on which professionals and amateurs can curate, interpret, and remix artifacts and information. We invited local artists and community groups to perform. We make room for interns and artists and people who walk in the door with crazy ideas.

My first online community builder/facilitator job was with Arts Wire, an online network for artists, that used a unix-based, text-based online discussion software. Arts Wire, a project of NYFA, was originally intended to be a place for artists from all over the country to meet, exchange ideas, and talk about their work via the Internet.

A large number of the collaborative projects of which I'm aware (in which staff partner with community members to co-develop exhibits or programs) are initiated with teens. Teens more commonly use the Web to stay in touch with their pre-existing social groups than to join new communities based on content affinities or interests.

Our job was to provide a structured environment in which to develop ideas and the expertise to build the best of them. Contests are good for raising awareness and focusing behavior, but not good for building sustainable communities or work in a flexible environment. Trust is essential, especially in a changing environment.

They have a magazine called Race, Poverty and Environment Magazin e. The other one I'd say is, I'm a big believer in collaboration, and the future of journalism is collaboration. I often say that, "Collaboration is queen." If life is a chessboard, content is still king. I mean, they're stark contrasts.

And while there's lots of good stuff in these sections (including an introduction for me to some wild net artists ), it's the last chunk that interests me most, where Karen explores the question of how and where Internet art should be exhibited. But other times, it's not clear where the content belongs. Citizen science programs.

It is an exhibit of user-generated content? In the other case, the institution was unwilling to engage in the conversational environment and ended up isolated, fueling the fire. When those spaces are factored in, there are more than 250 works by female artists on view now. Is this a research project? Is it a conversation?

This week marks one month of live activity for the Tech Virtual Museum Workshop , a collaborative, online platform for exhibit development. But museum folks, no matter how much we want to collaborate, don't move quickly. I went into this project skeptical about the use of Second Life as a collaborative design platform.

Hackerspaces are about people, not content Hackerspaces are hybrid private clubs/public educational spaces. There are maker spaces popping up for all kinds of artists, crafters, and independent entrepeneurs who want a shared space to congregate, share ideas, and work on projects. This isn't just a geek thing.

I think about how hesitant I was to become an artist, because I didn't see role models, and even to this day how hard it is for me sometimes to find peers who are women of color, because of how systematically they are pushed out. I'm an artist and an institution builder. The kind of art I do is art that gets engaged into the public.

So, if you have to leave early, you just want to review the content later on, share with a friend or a colleague, don’t worry, we will get all that good stuff in your hands later on today.

As we've grown up with it, and we've been doing it since about 1998, it has suddenly become the sort of thing that everybody is talking about now, is how do you do online advertising content that is entertaining and engaging. We've been friends since we were seven, so we already had a very long collaborative history.
