[Dancecult-l] secrecy, disappearance & invisibility

[ripley]

Hiya

This sounds fascinating, and also like some geographers might be interested
or helpful. It reminds me of (UC Berkeley Geography Grad Student) Trevor
Paglen's work on mapping invisible sites/geography of invisible places..
http://www.paglen.com

and also reminds me of the least popular thing I said to a room full of
museum donors and art collectors concerned with copyright law - that maybe
some artists ought not to be seen by the law, let alone be protected by it.

sorry I have nothing more substantive but I look foward to seeing more!

peace
