What is going on with Oudeis ?
I thought you want to realize the whole thing next year.
Browsing trhu some mails in the list it looks like you are in the same
dilemma as before the ARS.

>that VISONS are fun to have but that you have no

...
Monika, thats what we promised to you in our sessions.
You will have the same problems if you dont care about the essentials.
Somebody has to bring all the visions down to earth.
>A coming together as Monika put it is nice of course
>but setting something up which will work and which
>will have to work is something completely different.
YES ! YES ! YES !
Are there any plans for next year ?
If not I am afraid it will take the same drive as before...
Or is it going to be a 10 year project now ?
What is the glue of our last net:lab meeting ?

could be completely underwater.
The world is in a radical change since it exists.
Have you ever heard about pangea. All our continents are more
a modern invention of nature...

I did not say that !!!
I sayd telnet sessions and text based adventure games are old concepts.
I have anything against old concepts. In practice it might be useful.
But I feel it annoying if somebody wants to sell me the zeropicture
again and again....
> For me, the technology is one small piece of the puzzle.
Yes the technology is totally unimportant !
Give us a plan of what you want and we can realize it !
Its just design and engineering.
It is not a question of technology.
I dont have anything against lowtek !
For ME the text of Odysseus in a mailinglist is interesting enough.
I dont need the addition of the internethype I dont even need all the
artistic brumborium (maybe monika can translate this...)
Its all a question of the aim.
The problem is I dont see any destination in the whole project.
I am not against lowtek but I hate fake.
I hate all this "postmodern" installations which are trendy because
there is just some link to the internet...
regards, Jonny
