What is important and new about Twitter's First Post Conceptual Performance Art event is the opportunity for immediate and world wide interaction. The event is not as much about the "performance" as the community interaction that surrounds it. I am glad that you mention the "Press release" and cleverly linked to it. Astute of you. The article on the Post Conceptual UnGraven Image Art and Inspiration blog, which you are correct to also see as a press release was Twittered throughout the day and also on Facebook, and was sent in my feeds. This article is at the heart of the performance. This event was a first, and as such an experiment. I began to really use Twitter a little under two weeks ago. At the time of the event I had about 475 followers. Since many were at work or elsewhere, only Twitter would be able to tell us how many actual people who follow my Twits were signed on at the time of the event. I have been signing up to follow people that I am interested in learning about, or meeting, which includes everyone related to fine art. I have commented on your excellent blogs previously, so I am eager to follow you! I hope to continue to add followers and encourage more interaction in relation to the event. I did see many of my followers making comments about art or if they were not artists mirroring ideas from the article. I had a surprising number of private twits and emails both before and after the event from people who wanted to participate or offer encouragement. While I am not sure what the next step will be it will involve more community participation. Twitter is a social media and community. It is about what we can do as a group. As an artist, I see myself in a spiritual or inspirational role, but art is about communication. It is not about me, It is always about us. The event was also about us. The articles, comments on Twitter, and more that happened in people's hearts and minds that we do not have knowledge of as most people do not speak up. For me part of the community event is your blog article. I will be mentioning it on Twitter and in a follow up on the Art & Inspiration blog. Thank you for the article and your participation. More to come. Judy Rey Wasserman on Twitter: http://twitter.com/judyrey Thanks for the mention.I really appreciate it.
