Dear Rasa Smite,

I am very interested in learning how I can get started with net.casting.

Since I am an independent artist and do not plan on receiving funding any
time soon, I would like to learn how I can get started with no funds or
institutional support. (one of the reasons why I am drawn to the net is
because I can remain independant yet reach out to others without the
barriers of galleries or publishers.)

So, when I saw these comments on x-change today, I thought it would be a
good time to contact you and see if you could forward this information to
me?

I would like to find out more about the portable audio server and if it is
possible to stream video through it as well.

Can I see this material as well?
& will you be giving a workshop in nyc?


I look forward to your reply and learning more..... !


thanx and all the best,
