Dear All

Just in response to posts from Jaromil who said:

<Bronac was there a couple of times, so she might report more reasons
why they are very smart, or more reasons why I'm being a PITA now>

and from Rob who reported that Virtueel Platform had said:

'Virtueel Platform, a Dutch sector-institute aiming to stimulate e-culture, is busy making an overview of all Dutch media labs. We think Bricolabs should be a part of this overview. We would like you to help us sharpen and control the profile we made of you'.

I would propose we respond with the following:

bricolabs is a translocal, intraregional network that regards nationally determined cultural policies for 'new media'as attempts to dominate, rationalise, claim and own practices that exist by nature of being between and outside and beyond such frameworks. Inclusion of a network like bricolabs in a category such as Dutch media labs is futile, incommensurate, without reality and frankly deluded.

Yours sincerely
the bricolabs network
