It's interesting how this article on O'Reillynet by Linux programming author Andy Oram
http://www.openp2p.com/pub/a/p2p/2002/03/08/media.html evokes the themes of Fluxus and the radical art of the 60's... Make sure you read the second page... "One of my favorite exhibits at the New York Museum of Modern Art (MOMA), when I would visit it as a child, was an abstract, smoky, shifting-color film that changed without interruption all through the day. etc.." Actually, what he envisions sounds a lot like mail art and the Eternal Network... cheers, George
