Blogging (and vlogging and booing and tweeting and podcasting and google wave and everything else going on in the 'blogosphere'/social web) is a still a relatively new, developing and experimental way to share messages and build relationships. As such, there's not a lot of condensed information about arts and social media - or web 2.0, as it's called. (Web 3.0 is about to break out, according to geekexperts!).
Yet blogging lends itself to documenting an arts project really well. Why? Well, not least because it is fast, democratic and visual. We'll have more thoughts on this at the end of the project and will highlight a way for you to get hold of our *free* review on this blog.
For now, here's what we found elsewhere on arts and social media. If you know of any other great resources, feel free to flag them up in the combox.
Trebor Scholz is a writer, social activist and educator, based in New York. In 2004 he founded the Institute for Distributed Creativity. He has a presentation on arts and social media (no sound) over at slideshare.
Vimeo (video sharing site) has this example of an Atlanta Celebrates Photography video/press release presentation about a new art installation project.
Mashable has a feature on 'How Community Arts Organisations Are Using Social Media'.
Twitter flagged up Rohn Jay Miller who writes a blog called take 5, comments on arts and social media (US), has art galleries as clients (including social media-friendly ones) and is putting together a longer resource of articles with arts and social media links.
Beth Kantor, digital consultant to non-profits, has a youtube presentation on 'Using Social Media for Good Causes.' (Interesting if you have a spare moment with a cup of tea!)
