[iDC] media curating as montage - folk tale samizdat, etc

[Barbara Lattanzi]

Hi Chris.

I think that Paul's response was great.  Plus new work to think 
about/look for.  It also helped me remember a piece that I love of Keith 
Obadike's that would be a helpful addition for one of the lists I had 
started ("Flesh Work").

I thought I would add the "Folk Tale Samizdat" list too at this point, 
(in addition to the "Flesh Work" list) although it could use more titles.

The "historical" lists and the ones started by me currently, are meant 
to play out a different logic of curating than the YouTube playlist, the 
auteur retrospective, or the redundant thematic collection.

I had invited people to add titles or concepts of their own.  Paul was 
the only person to take the idea seriously.

Barbara
