#Welcome to the 4th Quarter – Last Quarter of your #Waterford #Career?

Get out your handbooks!

Experience can act as an object. Art has traditionally been object oriented. But with the emergence of performance, installation, sound- and time-based media, ephemeral experiences and relationships can now be thought of as surrogate objects embodying the art impulse. This is in keeping with the fleeting and disembodied nature of much of what passes for objecthood in the simulated realm of the digital. Objects must be thought of as pulses of energy and patterns, not just solid volumes. 101 Things to Learn in Art School Kit White © 2011 Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Kit White
