Discussions with Pat, Been, Mila and Prune

Media and Arts: how well does the Magazine's comunicate the industry.

M: I like to look at the pictures more than reading

Pr: I guess its good coz you can see about lots of different galleries, and it guess its good to know whats in and whats contemporary.

M: Yeah, I'm not really to sure.

Pr: I mean some of them are really boring and you can get bored really easily from reading them.
Actually i like the stuff thats more about pop culture, to do with music, it interests me more about that than art, coz you get to read about album and then learn about the art aspects around alot of different things. Art magazines are more about sculpture and painting, it would be more cooler if they were all together, you have to go buy a Photography magazine inorder to view Photo.

M: Photo and technology is upgrading everyday

Pr: Paul McNamara is in this magazine.

B: what do you think about art magazines, do they help you?

Pr: i read books coz theres lots of information, and you can get books that are about one artist, and i gues that is good that you can find books like that.

P: theres too many adverts in the magazines.

Pr: Magazines arent really treated like books, it gets wrecked easier.

B: My friend and I confessed about reading Fashion magazines, coz of the visual and its more interesting to look at

Pr: Fashion magazines are lots more better to look at. Art Magazines are soo boring.

B: Musicians have better interviews.
FASHION PHOTOGRAPHY IS SO MUCH BETTER TO LOOK AT!
sick of looking at empty houses and trees

Pr: So much more interesting! OMG YES!
in a fashion shoot
I want really good ppl, and clothes and make up and i want everything

B:theres a story behind Fashion Photography.

P: I dont enjoy reading about art that much, i think its quite over analaysed and its about neutraility and ppl say so much about that i becomes meaningless. theres sooo many ways to read it,

B: Thats the point isnt it,

P: writers writing about art, and knowing how ppl have made, its the discussion about the work is very dry. there are exceptions, like the collage book, goes thru a comprehensive history, its still academic

Pr: *FART*

Pr: Art is snobbery

B: interesting polarity, its like the high art and the water color stuff, its like it sells way more.

Pr: its coz ppl buy the nannery magazines coz its more popular

P: its like youd never go to those exhibition, youd' never know who the artists were.
I like Artworld, its reasonable

Pr: I like the Artworld magazines, i like the ones that have more of a variety

B: I like centrefolds.

P: im going to make the Rayner Brothers a pullout centrefold.

B: Nice bottom.







the discussion turns away from discussing magazines and seems to go to nudity and what not.

M: I cant type as fast as ppl's mouths are going off
it seems to me like theres a never ending discussion about how Magazines function as a communication source within the art industry. I think we'r all going to be like Skynet and the place will be over run by Skynet, so ppl, you are you own worse enemy. technology evolves and so do we. this is John Connor signing off.
