Heiko, apologies for my facetiousness last night...I like this online arts publication because of the variety of content in the articles and the diverse geographies from whence they come. While media can hardly be called unbiased, this journal provides a good overview of what's going on as well as information on a variety of topics, all art related without the distraction of pretty pictures, and a scarcity of "artspeak." I also like the format, one can scroll down and read what one wants, or delve into the full issue. Best, PK

"New technology, art and ritual made possible the transformation to anatomically modern humanity. The requirement for these technological and behavioural "tools" seems to have been driven by a cold, dry period some 340,000 years ago that led to expansionof the Kalahari Desert, which in turn broke up the forest land of southern Africa, causing big habitat changes and adaptive challenges for early human populations." Wonder what anatomical changes our new technology is presurring our genes to make . . . and art as a "behavioural tool", now I have to worry about what art's doing to my genes? . . . What a great ideology for a new art movement. Genetically friendly art. I like it. Advertising is not genetically friendly! I'm suing. I went to one of those caves in France, not Lascaux (spelling?) the most famous one, it was off limits, but another one nearby. It's so amazing to wander through this chilled dark cave and see the paintings flickering on the walls. Feels like walking through the species' unconscious. I also liked the aritcle on DuChamp . . . his lack of emotion has always bothered me. He's been the pea under my mattress . . . BP

Patricia, I did take a look, and the thing on the 400,000-yr-old pigment finds was great. The range of color, that it was apparently used as body paint, the fact that painting predates the physical evolution of the species--all very interesting! Now I want pictures of the various colors-yellow, light red, dark red, pink, purple, black. Stylin! AK

The worth is in the content and needs no explanation. Check it out. You've got to get out of that magicword mindthink, Heiko, (YOU are the magician, ; ) and on to the yellow brick road. Peformance: double click link above with mouse, repeating seven times, "I am the magician." read what you wish, if not enough magic does happen to pique your interest , "close your eyes, make a wish, hit delete."
