invitation to participate: your favorite four letter words

Hey Rhizomers,

I'd like to ask you to contribute/participate in my latest
collaborative-participative-what-the-hell-is-it-ART-THANG. (FYI, I have
included my bio at the end of this email.)

It's SO EASY: send me a list of your favorite four letter words (as many or
as few as you want). Yeah, and remember, four letter doesn't have to mean
f*ck, sh*t, d*mn, although those certainly are glorious four letter words.
Hand, post, June, list, dive, chow, Oslo, poke are all perfectly reasonable
four letter words as well.

The words will be used in a video installation planned for a
music/video/art/dance-like-crazy-people event at the Hollywood Athletic Club
in Los Angeles for May 17. The words will be placed in a database, and
reconfigured in odd random pairings based on an algorithm, along with odd
random pairings of video footage.

Thanks, and send those words in to [email protected]! I need a lot of
them…

BIO: <warning: art jargon ahead>
D. Jean Hester is a media artist living in Los Angeles, California, whose
work combines programming, databases, film and video to create interactive
pieces for both physical installations and online platforms. Hester wishes
to involve users as active, thinking, engaged participant-collaborators in
the creation of art. Her work explores the nature of interactivity and
audience/user participation, and what happens when a work is no longer a
stand-alone authored environment with a tightly controlled author-defined
outcome, but when the users themselves are contributing/collaborating
through the use of interactivity (be it physical real-world performative
actions or interaction with a database or some other program). In this
scenario the artist's intention is only part of the puzzle

"Eryk" is my favorite four letter word.
