It contains Rosalind Krauss's essay (discussed in week 2) "Video: The Aesthetics of Narcissism" as well as several other essays which fuse philosophy, the emergence of new technologies and art. Hopefully some of the essays will make a little more sense as i learn more in the course.
Has anyone else come across any reading material?

In the next few days I will post up a full list of the films we have watched as part of the course along with a bibliography.
In the meantime here are two very useful artist moving image resource sites
www.ubuweb.com
Lots of films/essays/sound art
www.luxonline.org.uk
Artist essays, examples of work, themes etc, at the moment you can watch the full video of Vivienne Dick's Guerillere Talks (1978) and download a 'vodcast' interview with Guy Sherwin
