New thinking in old ways

New thinking in old ways sounds like a bit of an oxymoron which it is, its a bit like seeing the old world with new eyes. I came across a 2003 white paper from ArtsLab titled Truth, Beauty, Freedom, and Money: Technology-Based Art and the Dynamics of Sustainability which discusses even five years ago how technology-based art was becoming increasingly of interest to both the art and the technology communities, as well as to the public at large. The white paper discusses the support opportunities that existed for tech-based art, such as commercializing invention and tapping a new generation of collectors, patrons and sponsors based on observations about the art and technology landscape and opportunities for future support.

I'm not that narcissistic to think that I'm the only one thinking about these issues and I'm happy to find that established foundations and people have been looking for ways to integrate the two.
