mmm mmm. As an artist working in video, this may be tasty just for me, but I thought this was a good place to share. AU's Center for Social Media breaks down fair use into a mash up all its own. Go here for the written guide in simple people words.

Another way to add images

Here is a slideshow I created at Slide.com (www.slide.com). There are many different templates available, and it is free.

Try embedding images on your blogs.
Here is a slideshow of work by Odilon Redon that I created on the free site Slideroll (www.slideroll.com)

Video

Here's how to share videos from Youtube:

To embed a video from YouTube, just copy the code from the "Embed" box on the video's YouTube page. You can find the "Embed" box in the "About This Video" box when you're watching the video. You can also get the code from the "Embed HTML" box on the "Edit Video" page if the video belongs to your YouTube account.

To embed a YouTube video within a blog post, first click "Edit HTML" from within the post editor. Next, paste the video's code into the body of your post. That's it!

Here is an example of Ryan Trecartin's feature length film "I-BE Area"

Skote-more narrative video

I write because you may be interested in these folks - Skote

They were part of a collective exhibition at the gallery I work at, the DC Arts Center, and they were kind enough to offer us a gallery talk. They immerse non-artists-actual onlookers-in the whole experience, which could take a lifetime and a day to dicuss the reprocussions of.

Fascinating Video Artist

Lately I've been interested in the work of a video artist named Ryan Trecartin. There's an article about him and a new generation of video artists experimenting with semi-narrative formats in The New York Times online. The article is "Video Art Thinks Big: That’s Showbiz" by Holland Cotter.
