I should just make mention here that Canadian Club, the Persona Volare exhibition at Rodman Hall in St. Catharine',s is f***ing great. If you are looking for a field trip, go there and see it. I wrote a little bit about their last exhibition here. I enjoyed all three of their shows, but in the past have felt that the artists were really disaparate and I couldn't see much reason, other than convenience and social fun -- which are fine reasons -- for all these works to be shown together. This time, however, the show is really coherent! Maybe some cross-talk has been developing over the years. Not only that, but everyone's work is cranked up a notch, really, really good stuff. Of course I am always thrilled to see the lovely and brilliaint art of the lovely and brilliant Lorna Mills. Other highlights for me were Rebecca Diederichs' big digital banners that hit a fine juicey balance between abstraction, typography and narrative; John Dickson's foggy sci-fi cardboard city that was spooky cool in affect (apparently where there's smoke there's not always fire); Chantal Rousseau's totally freaking awesome little black and white animations about strange birds; and Michael Davey's wonky snow cones on the shoe tips video. I liked all the other works too by Lyla Rye, Lisa Neighbour, Brian Hobbs, Carlo Cesta, Kate Wilson, Johannes Zits, and Reid Diamond.

How does mickey mouse's carnium [sic] look like [sic]? Find out at Google Video. I came across this one by searching for "video art". At the moment there are about 52 entries that fit the bill. "Cat" brings up 677. It's only early days.

I like the recent Wired article listing who's afraid of Google and why. Me, I'm about 50% afraid and 50% curious. Which pretty much sums up how I feel about the future too.
