Research-material for a new mail-interview arrived in the P.O. Box. 

New tools: Our new digital camera has a movable display and is photographed by the webcam on my laptop. Camera's taking photos of cameras. I am just holding it. 

Fascinating new techniques.

The new laptop I have now is really a communication-machine. A build in camera, wireless access to the Internet through broadband, and that with the knowledge how to deal with the required software. It means that anything can be online instantly wherever I am. Fascinating. If others have access to these tools, the communication-process has become an instant process over long distances.

New update at Fluxus Heidelberg Center Site.

On the site www.fluxusheidelberg.org I just published the newest collage that Litsa Spathi made. Go to the section "Fluxus Journal" that is online there. Actually it arrived from Heidelberg itself where Litsa is giving some workshops in Acryl Painting.

Qute new. My new laptop has a build-in web-cam and camera. Just took this photo. The Jazz-Festival is now taking place in breda. Will ge there this afternoon. Talking about new techniques; instant photos can be published now with this new tool I have. If someone sends me mail-art, I can personaly show that it arrived! 

Found this Collage while goijng through my old stuff. Actually a cut-up old floppy disk. In the year 1995 I still used Diskettes. How the times are changing. 

Repeating or something new

When you read the previous entry you might realize that I am now thinking of new ways to communicate. The Blogs aren't really interactive. The blogs I really like are the interactive once. Where more than one person place there entries. But still, it is not really interactive. After Text came the visuals. After the Pictures come the videos.

To be prepared I needed some new tools. I am now experimenting with it. You might find out soon enough what way things are going.

Weblogs

The weblogs are now everywhere. It also means that the 'public' is almost as large as the 'writers'. Somehow it then seems that everybody is writing and publishing things, but nobody has time to read the stuff others produce.

In the future a balance will come for sure. I must confess that I stopped reading those other blogs for a while as well. I'll see how this develops.
