Art Work
January 15, 2010 | ByFiled under: Field Notes
In support of Temporary Services’ recent newspaper project Art Work: a national conversation about art, labor and economics, I’ve created the beginnings of an “audio book” version, starting with one of my favorite texts in the publication. I then asked artist Sam Gould to record one of his choosing. You can download them both here. I’ll extend the invitation to anyone who might like to audio record a text from the newspaper, to be added to this post. You can download the newspaper in full here.

The Futurefarmers had a big stack of papers. Not sure if there are any left or not. You might ask them.
Thanks, Joseph for making the audio book happen!

January 17th, 2010 at 2:19 pmYou actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complex and very broad for me. I’m looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it!
