BIO
Eric Dymond is an artist who works with many tools and programming languages.
He graduated from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design with a BFA in studio.<br />
He exhibited paintings in Toronto, Detroit, New York, Montreal and London during the 1970's, 1980's and 1990's. The paintings were created with sandblasted sprays employing formal themes from the history of painting (still life's , individual portraits, traditional landscapes) . These series appear minimal with repeating content and are a form of Serialism.
In the early 1990's he began working with digital media, building perl programs with TCL/TK, web sites (see the doorway on Leonardo) and stand-alone applications.
He continues working in all media, rejecting specialization.

oh yeah... you will click on that link.
And you do you know why you will click on that link?
Because you want to see the words and pictures at the othe other end .
oh yeah..., oh yeah...
and you're Steve Read, and you can't hold back. It's crank to you..., isn't it.
These links lying around like hits waiting to happen..., teasing you, enticing you.
you can't take your eyes off it , try turning the monitor off..., you can't do it can you.
hooked on hypertext, gleefully clicking away, hoping for something, anything to relieve your intense mindnumbing boredom
oh yeah, you know , go ahead..., it's waiting for you..., lingering, wanting you, and you needing it.
