Brian Myles : Le jazz façon techno

"À ceux qui soulignent que les musiques électroniques ne sauraient être représentées dans un Festival de jazz, il répond du tac au tac: «Sortez de l'âge des ténèbres. Le futur est à nos portes. L'an 2000, c'est dans... cinq mois. Nous devons nous ouvrir les yeux, l'esprit. Le scratch, c'est de l'improvisation.» "

Jon Katz on "Geek Unions"

"Aaron says he was watching the movie "Dune" one light last week 'It occurred to me that what is true of my school is also true of other organizations, from small businesses to the federal government. Just like the Freemen in the movie stopped the universe by stopping the export of Spice, if computer geeks stopped working en masse, the whole country, and even the world, would grind to a halt.' " Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely, even if your name is Aaron.

Jeff Howe : Artistic License, Creating a Space for Net-art

"[He] likens the obstacles net-art faces in finding a museum audience to those faced by artists exploring issues of cultural diversity 20 years ago. 'It's outside [some curators'] value structure, so they don't have the impetus to take it seriously. I don't know what it's going to take for [Net-based artists] to overcome the barriers we face.' "
