TOD N#9 Geert Lovink, My First Recession by Institute of Network

My First Recession starts after the party is over. This study maps the tran- sition of critical Internetculture from the mid to late 1990s Internet craze to the dotcom crash, the subsequent meltdownof global financial markets and 9/11. In his discussion of the dotcom boom-and-bust cycle, GeertLovink lays out the challenges faced by critical Internet culture today. In a series of case studies,Lovink meticulously describes the ambivalent attitude that artists and activists take as they veerback and forth between euphoria and skepticism. As a part of this process, Lovink examines theinternal dynamics of virtual communities through an analysis of the use of moderation and “collaborativefiltering” on mailing lists and weblogs. He also confronts the practical and theoreticalproblems that appear as artists join the growing number of new-media education programs.
