The ARPANET Dialogues Vol.III 
--------------------------------------------
 The third installment of the ongoing online archive project  The ARPANET Dialogues is now online. This is installment is the transcription for an ARPANET conversation that took place in March 1976 between between four figures from the 1970s-era art community: German 
artist, educator and activist, Joseph Beuys; Chilean-born multimedia 
artist and filmmaker, Juan Downey; Rosalind Krauss, art critic and 
co-founder of the new journal October; and the world-renown British sculptor, Henry Moore.

About the ARPANET Dialogues:

In the period between 1975 and 1979, the Agency convened a rare series
 of conversations between an eccentric cast of characters representing a
 wide range of perspectives within the contemporary social, political 
and cultural milieu. The ARPANET Dialogues is a
 serial document which archives these conversations. Even more unusual 
perhaps was the specific circumstances of the conversation: taking 
advantage of recent developments in telecommunications technology, the 
conversation was conducted via an instant messaging application 
networked by computers plugged into ARPANET, the United States 
Department of Defense’s experimental computer network. All participants 
in the conversation were given special access to terminals connected to 
ARPANET, many of them located in US military installations or 
DOD-sponsored research institutions around the world. Excerpts from each
 session will be published as they become available. The ARPANET Dialogues is an ongoing research project by Bassam El Baroni, Jeremy Beaudry and Nav Haq.
