Subject: Big Failures of Identity!
Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2011 21:28:02 -0400 (EDT)
Big Failures of Identity! How many avatars are there? In the image? In the world? How many things are they doing in the world? Avatars drop like rain does from the clouds in the sky. But like virga they disappear before they hit the ground. "The mark of the blank is missing." But what is equivalent here? I think maybe the pixels. But aren't they addressable? Of course they are! The avatars are another thing! Big failures of identity! http://www.alansondheim.org/identities.mp4
