Hi Thomas
our discussion may seem redundant at times of depressing world
political events. However, let me nevertheless explain a bit where I
am coming from. You insinuate that I just wrote this posting to
'advertise' my book, not taking into consideration that I may have
other motivations as well
dear Thomas,
I really hate to say this, because I really respect your work, you are
a very good researcher but this piece once more perpetuates the myth
of a purely Western computer art and cybernetics. A few years ago this
might have been an oversight, one could have said there was not enough

Hi Patrice and all,
I happen to live in Austria and I would warn against false

it is indeed perplexing that Bishop manages to write a pretty good book

digital art or whatever you call it. I do not concur however, that this

Hi Frank
sure, there is a diversity of opinion in any self-respecting newspaper. But
that does not change the fact that FAZ editors are conducting a kind of
campaign against the 'free' culture of the internet. I would certainly not
consider Google to be 'good'. I am observing, rather neutrally, th

my reply was in no way meant to be a "critique" of the whole project as
John Hopkins wrongly insinuated. It is just a critique of the title

it seems to me that the kind of outrage purportedly shown by German
