Alan Sondheim
Providence, RI
Alan Sondheim is a new media artist, musician, writer, and performer concerned with issues of virtuality, and the stake that the real world has in the virtual. His writing is known for its "somatic grit" and skeletal codes that partially appear within and determine the surface; the textual body and body of text are deeply entangled. He has been producing his "Internet Text," a daily meditation on virtuality, for twenty-seven years. His work can be found at http://www.alansondheim.org/ and YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/user/asondheim/videos .
