Hi John,

I'm a TV producer researching a proposed programme about the impact of the
Internet on culture.

I guess novels written on/for the net are one outcome but otherwise all my
searches turn up pre-existing art being written about on the net, bought and
sold on the net etc. Has anyone done any work on the way the internet has
actually impacted on Art (with specific examples of literary/fine art works
which owe something to the net - whether or not they were created on/for it?
(As Mike Figgis' movie Timecode reflects on digital technologies...)

This is for a proposed series about the impact of other 'technologies' on
the history of high culture - photography on painting, sound recording on
music, and then the internet on culture.

Any ideas, book suggestions etc gratefully received. Probably won't get
commissioned these days anyway as there's no gardening/cooking/millions to
be won. I am the weakest link. Goodbye.

Thanks,


Paul Kerr
