Found Meaning in Found Footage
Hanna Maria Anttila
Pekka Sassi is interested in the media culture of our time. He collects all
kinds of images and sounds, works both with found footage and self-shot
material. “ While filming, I intend to produce as little material as

quickly to create vividness and spontaneity which otherwise would be lost
while adjusting the camera and fiddling about with lights.
Collecting media art in Finland – two
cases
Minna Kontkanen

baby. This is how the life cycle is naturalized to us. Even as a child, I
remember arguing about it...
Two cats of Kilkenny
Kari Yli-Annala:

Each thought there was one cat too many
So they fought and they fit

Art in data terminal equipment
Eeva Pirkkala
The features of mobiles and PDA devices have diversified in the last five
years and also 3G phones are rapidly becoming common. The favourable
features of 3G include, among others, fast data transfer, roughly estimated
over 1 Mbit/s, and the ability to transfer both sounds and other data...
