It seems to me that the "Avante Garde" today is too
preoccupied with positioning itself. We have a
medium, in the internet, that is to me beyond my
wildest dream as a means of expression. Do we really
need to jocky for position in information culture.
In seeking a position are we not simply trying to
justify ourselves...and I ask the question
"Do we need to justify our existance?"
My belief is NO. Leave it to the historians to
create definitons. It is far more important
for us to create...
