Coming up later this week:

the opening of the 7th HTMlles festival here in Montreal. The theme this year is “peripheries + proximites” though even as someone who was once professionally steeped in postmodern discourse, the description of the theme seems pretty damned opaque to me. In any case it looks like there will be a wonderful mix of performances, installations, and web projects throughout the festival, and it’s well worth a look. HTMlles is a production of Studio XX.

Elections BC has ruled that weblogs are a form of campaign advertising and as such must be registered. I’m sure a lot of people will suggest that the sky is falling, when in fact it’s just another example of an inability to fit new media forms within old frameworks. Certainly everything will eventually shake out as it should – which will mean this silly decision will be reversed.
