E-haze

I am still hungover from The Great Internet Sleepover, an event I participated in a week ago. There was a bounty of net surfing and informal screwing around.

Fellow Double Happiness crew-dawg Bennett, Marisa Olson, Tom Moody and Michael Bell-Smith participated in an ever-enlarging panel discussion. The panel was trying to situate "net surfing" in the context of an art movement, although some of the more interesting comments came from Charles, who thinks that net surfing as an artistic practice is a fad. Borna thinks that the panel itself was too formal. I am undecided.
I did like that the discussion was overshadowed by the cacophonous audiovisual overstimulation that kept on spinnin' in the rest of the room.

Bennett and I did a superimposition / projector jam with iChat AV that I liked.

There was amazing music throughout the night, with some excellent MIDI's, several people DJing, and amazingly beautiful music courtesy of Mario Paint really early in the morning. I am glad that someone had the foresight to throw down Crank Dat. I also really liked Lidl, which was Charles' selection I think.
