Other current projects events/exhibitions related to Furtherfield.

HTTP presents Eating Canvas by UK digital artist Jess Loseby. A new 
media installation of digital paintings on a range of canvas: fabric, 
screen, paper and televisions. This warm and evocative cyber-domestic 
work is a convergence of personal and political aesthetics that is 
reflective and declares a conscious subjectivity. Loseby's 
internationally recognised net artworks always demonstrate a keen 
alertness to her's and her viewers' positioning in physical, virtual and 
political space.

criticism and archiving of adventurous net art, networked media, artwork 
for public viewing, experience and interaction.

Furtherfield creates imaginative strategies that actively communicate 
ideas and issues in a range of digital & terrestrial media contexts; 
featuring works online and organising global, contributory projects,
