post-disciplinary / post production
Nicolas Bourriaud and Karen Moss
"It is also interesting how few of the artists in this exhibition are involved with technology. While their work may somehow comment on the technological, they are not much involved with technology, which is refreshing.
NB: They just use it.
KM: They use it, but they're not commenting on it."
possible thread to post disc.
also, same article for a relation to history:
"NB: I think the most important thing is you don't have to be intimidated by knowledge and by history. Most people's relation to history can be summed up by this image of somebody trying to walk into a room with a lot of porcelain and fragile things and not wanting to break any of them. It's super-precious and it has to be kept exactly like it is. I think all these artists do exactly the opposite. Which is they don't care about any historical object, they just use it and try to understand what's in it. And these are two different ways of seeing history – first as a commodified history, doing nothing to change it - or revisiting it all the time and feeling totally free."
