Today I need to finish my article on electronic art in public spaces. I’m procrastinating like mad, so this post is going to be my personal motivator, like I did when I was trying to finish my PhD before last Christmas. The article’s only supposed to be 2000 words long, and it’s an introduction to a booklet presenting twenty electronic artworks in public spaces in Norway, from imported international classics to sound installations to art on state websites. I need to:

• Write brief descriptions of other, non-Norwegian works (e.g. Lozano-Hemmer).
• Paragraph introducing electronic art in general.
• Public art, electronic public art.
• Paragraph on interactivity, follow me, stamping
• Paragraph discussing potential for publically funded art in public digital spaces (like Tegnemaskin 1-12).
• Go to the hospital and experience Adsonore.
• Check dogeared pages in Digital Art for more examples.
• Discuss relationships between works presented. Sound, concept, object.
• Go for a run. Bonus: thought about article!
• Non-related but necessary: Attend meeting, pick up my daughter from school, shopping, dinner, buy sweets in case kids come for Halloween (not a tradition here but they must have been watching television or something because it’s starting), daughter’s friend staying the night, kids in bed, lights out. Then work more.
• Work out how it all fits together. Sequence.
• Write introductory paragraph.
• Proofread.
