Talk:Radio art

I've eliminated this

In the perspective to online broadcasting,"computers replace artists in the execution of performance of the work.”

I think this isn't correct. Online broadcasting can be considered broadcasting in a different medium. How can the computer replace the artist just because we are changing media? Is the hertzian transmitter replacing the artist? If it is alleged that the computer is generating content who did program the computer? Who set the piece in motion. Has written it is implied that, in the context, we can all go home and let computers do the art thing. Ricardo Reis 07:32, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Response to edit of:

In the perspective to online broadcasting,"computers replace artists in the execution of performance of the work.” [1]

This example could have used more description - using a project as an example. Computers can be the medium and not the performer, unless intended by the artist. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Th0pen (talk • contribs) 17:23, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

I edited the following section: Radio Art Experiments and Project Examples 1. Added Jacques Foschia's and Tetsuo Kogawa's full names to the text 2. Deleted the Esther Venrooy part, as neither the text for her, nor her website makes any reference to radio art. 3. Deleted the link to Free Radio Linux which was dead. Changed the text to past tense as the project finished in 2004.

I think the overall entry needs tidying up and includes a lot of unclear quotes and text. Th0pen brings up an interesting question of the connection between radio art and new media art. I hope that more contributors will bring in their knowledge on this issue and on radio art in general. Knut Aufermann (talk) 19:17, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Re: turning this page into a linkfarm: 1. The link to Jacques Foschia and Tetsuo Kogawa's "Transversal Performance" does not provide any information on their "Transversal Performance", it links to okno.be. The reference to "Transversal Performance" is fine but the link needs to go. 2. Cafe Sonore deserves a mention, possibly in an overview of radio art on various national broadcasters. In this sense it is as important as Kunstradio and Atelier de création radiophonique. 3. My change to http://live.radioartemobile.it was simply to bring the formatting in line with the other two entries. I would, however, debate the importance of live.radioartemobile.it.

General comment on links on this page: radio art is such a minuscule genre of sound art and has a relatively low profile that broadcasters and other media which help to illustrate what radio art is deserve a mention. --Annee zero (talk) 12:44, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
