Artists for Artists Network inspired by the World Economic Crisis aiming to counter negative developments in Art and Society.

The Myth of the starving Artist

Starvation, unfortunately, didn't improve art. It only hindered it. A man's soul was rooted in his stomach. A man could write much better after eating a steak and drinking a pint of whiskey... The myth of the starving artist was a hoax.

- Charles Bukowski, Factotum.

This network is in affiliation with Planet ArtVLOG 's Naked Artist Virtual Magazine and 'REMIXed', a new POWERPAINTER Studio project.

    As moderator of MOWA's forum i invite artists to come and join in.. MOWA is totally renewed, but i feel kinda lonely on the forum, the only thing i can do is communicate with myself, and that's kind of silly...

    My continuous struggle to get my life organized: waking up takes a lot
of time, and ADHD doesn't help in that case, many things get wrong or
don't get off the ground because i lack concentration and resources to
do things properly. I need to get focused, so first thing i need to do
is swallow my Ritalins, to be able to move along: these i call my
morning rituals. My brains don't function properly and i have memory
loss all the time. Therefor i need a lot of tricks to memorize the strategy of the coming day.

Part of the morning ritual is to go to see if my GOOGLE calendar has
send me some notifications... I need many alarms not to forget what is
important and my depressions, moodswings are also not very helpfull as
it comes to getting into action. Nowadays my health situation is not
too good, i feel kind of burnt out, i lack energy and get very easily
overimpulsed and that is a huge handicap in my social life, a
hermits life, and cope with that by keeping myself busy with way too
man...

Planet ArtVLOG Webcasting Station (PAWS)

INTRODUCTION TO PAWS / Dit is PAWS (introductie)

The Unusual Stuff...


Introductie
Na een fikse periode een-persoons denktanken, non-stop Drupal CMS installeren, bouwen, het zoeken en vinden van geschikte modules, het vinden van geschikte templates en weer configureren, eindeloos blok instellingen veranderen, testen, modules afstellen en weer testen, is het eindelijk zover: het high tech webcasting station werkt naar behoren, is monkey-proof, goed navigeerbaar en heeft een prettige uitstraliing op de koop toe. De site is Google Apps based, dat wil zeggen: hij maakt gebruik van Google Groups, Google Analitics, Google Adsense, Site Optimization, Google authenticatie en staat bovendien via een zelfgemaakte applicatie in direkte verbinding met Facebook. (miljoenen gebruikers wereldwijd!). Geregistreerde gebruikers die ook een Facebook account hebben, kunnen hun PAWS account naadloos op desbetreffens  platform aansluiten, data uitwisselen.. Bovendien geeft een met Facebook gesynchroniseerd account meer privileges op de site. Wat dat inhoud zult u wel merken nadat U uw nieuwe inschrijving hebt voltooid en op de profiel-pagina de Facebook permissies heeft ingeschakeld...Boven alles: dit projekt is mogelijk gemaakt dankzij ZAPstream TV (http://zapstream.nl) en Vectrus Internet Solutions (http://www.vectrus.nl/), onze 'streaming hosts'. zij ontwikkelden het allerbelangrijkste gereedschap: de broadcasting tools, die wij gebruiken omm onze content te streamen. Dankzij hun inzet en toewijding kon dit projekt van start gaan...Aangezien het 'webcasten' nieuw is voor mij, zal ik de komende tijd veel energie steken in het ontwikkelen van deze nieuwe manier om de Beeldende Kunst te promoten en het creatieve proces zichtbaar te maken voor het grote publiek. Galeries hebben drempels, studios zijn prive en uitsluitend op afspraak te bezoeken, de artiest leidt doorgaans een verborgen bestaan en de link tussen zijn leven en werk is moeilijk zichtbaar. In dit geval echter is die drempel afwezig, tenzij je het verplicht registreren op de site als een drempel ervaart. Registreer hier gratis en voor niks: http://webtv.artvlog.net/user/registerNa registratie zijn de kanalen pas zichtbaar voor u en kan u ook reageren en commentariseren op hetgeen u zult aantreffen...Een ander fenomeen is het feit dat ik er veel plezier aan beleef en er een hoop expressie in kwijt kan. Je kunt me in alle staten aantreffen, niks menselijks is mij vreemd.. Uiteraard bescherm ik de privacy wanneer mij en mijn bezoek dat uitkomt.  Ik hoop dat u , zoals ik, er een hoop plezier aan beleeft en regelmatig een kijkje komt nemen in mijn keuken.Vriendelijke groeten, Marcus van Soest

Canceled due to technical unFNURK: Experimental Webcast by PAWSER, the sites developer..

The webcast, Experimental Webcast by PAWSER, the sites developer, was canceled:
weak planning, space and technical unFNURK made it impossible to do the webcasting thing at that point in time..
I therefor  apologize to anybody who came to watch this event.. I certainly hope you will come back to give it anther try..
As for the fact THAT THIS STATION IS STILL NOT FULLY OPERATIONAL AND STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION, and webcasting is new to me, and therefore totally experimental! I certainly need more time to grow in this (new) form of art, and be able to come up with some amazing content.. Know that it takes an awfull lot of time, solving technical problems, a huge load of one-man thinktanking and testing the machinery, before this webcasting station is ready for the first official show. I still have to get used to sceduling: planning ahead has never been my strongest point, so here it also get's quite experimental to me...It wouldn't be an experiment if there was no chance of things getting wrong or out of hand...
sincerely,
Marcus van Soest for Planet ArtVLOG The Hague (PATH)

Why did I create this site? some history about my web movements.

Dear Visitors,

It's been around one year ago since i blogged for the last time.
I ran various sites which were hosted on a friends account:
artvlog.net, squarewheelers.com, powerpainter.org.

I lost some of these domains due to the financial crisis i entered
after i had a burn-out in 2007. 2006 had been a way too hectic year:
i had two expos in New York at Monkdogz Urban Art, had a drug issue,
my girlfriend left me, my dog was killed, i was almost killed at 6-6… Continue
