Supervisors -

Met with my supervisors yesterday for a review of my Lit Review. It went well and lots of thoughts and ideas came out of it, most importantly NOT taking on to much, in terms of research question. In my mind its whittled down to something like this, SEA art practice involved the viewer as participant/collaborator, as a result the discipline developed a critique of 'publics' as part of its methodology; Social Media makes use of terms to describe and involve it's public - the creativity of the multitude etc - and much critique has been written about the commercial exploitation of this 'public', in defining these two bodies of practice and critique could a set of parameters and insights be generated when thinking about web 3.0 - the semantic web - as a site for cultural activity commensurate with a new media socially engaged art practice NMSEA practice.
