HI BEN. INTERNET-SURFING, DISH-WASHING DOMESTIC ACTIVITY HAS NO BORDERS... SOME MAY NOT AGREE THOUGH. HOW ABOUT AN OPEN DISCUSSION ON INTERNET ADDICTION AND THE PRESERVATION OF FAMILY LIFE-AS-WE-KNOW-IT. REAL LIFE HUMAN INTERACTION, TALK, CARE, DEPTH OF EXPRESSION... SIMPLICITY OF THOUGHT... DON'T GET ME WRONG (NOT THAT IT WOULD MATTER SO MUCH) , I LIKE THE WEB, BUT ALL GOOD THINGS HAVE A POTENTIAL DOWNSIDE (TRUISM). DESIRE TO TALK ?

i'm not sure i understand you correctly, however, i don't believe the web to be an answer to domestic issues, if that's what you mean. at this point i'm exploring it as a tool, a means for collaboration and distribution. more as a way to make an offer available to those on the web, to see if they are interested in participation in something a bit unusual, something which some- how documents our necessary lives of maintenance, and whether or not that can be thought of as art.
