AS THE SIDEWALK BLEEDS

The artists in As the Sidewalk Bleeds offer individual ruminations on the topic of the creative misuse of digital technologies. Gathered here is a cross-section of Canadian artists using everything from computers to televisions and cell phones to websites and palm pilots to flatbed scanners in order to produce their art. These divergent artistic concerns overlap to produce a larger conversation regarding: poetry, love, geopolitics, globalization, and the incorporation of media in the everyday. –J.J. Kegan McFadden
