Hello Hello.
A few notes on blogs and their possibilities:
Screen Dump was a UK 'film festival' of works lifted from YouTube and other online videoblogs. (I wonder what kind of permissions they got from the makers.)
Here's some language from one of the organizers, posted on an experimental film listserv:
"This was partly driven by the observation that many of the first personal teenage bedroom videos posted on YouTube structurally but presumably unwittingly resemble the kind of videowork previously the domain of film and video artists...also...YouTube as resembling a kind of online open screening, an accessible and 'democratic' screening space. Another intriguing aspect was the possibility of taking the videos from the web browser to being projected 'full size' in a more conventional screening format in a more conventional screening space set up."
