notablog notablog is an experiment online publishing, and a portal to digital writing and media commentary http://www.runran.net/blog/blog.html the thundering snow white van and notablog the red tent and thundering white

You can see the nose of the Thundering Snow White Van behind the red tent. The machine is long of tooth, a 1981 one ton extended van, once owned by the City of Calgary. The gas tank is held by two of three straps, the third strap is rusted and snapped. Who knows what's holding the rear springs together? Or the brake lines? Some things survive long past their time. The Thundering Snow White Van is one of them. So is this website, but I'll get to that further on down the line.

The remix has kept me busy of late. All work has suffered, including writing an interview article about new media for a good friend - sorry Milsey, it's like writing about writing.

My first real sense that things had changed drastically at home wasn't the gleeming new buildings, or the advertisement offering $14hr to work at Chicken on the Way, or the price of beer - instead, it was while listening to the CKUA radion station that I suffered the deepest culture shock.

Robert Coover once wrote, The constant threat of hypermedia: to suck the substance out of a work of lettered art, reduce it to surface spectacle. What do you feel about the constant suspicion that hypertext and New Media art are somehow superficial?
