[oldboys] letter to the Walker Art Center re Steve Dietz and New Media

[Sarah Cook <sarah.e.cook@sunderland.ac.uk>]

Dear all,

Thanks again for your continued interest in the state of new media art 
programming at the Walker Art Center. As you may be aware, in May I 
posted an open letter to Walker's director Kathy Halbreich concerning 
the dismissal of new media curator Steve Dietz and the Walker's 
decision to cease curating new media art projects. In 7 days it 
acquired 700 signatures. In June we posted the reply we received from 
Kathy Halbreich.  We have now put online a response to this exchange 
from Steve Dietz.

Once again the url is: http://www.mteww.com/walker_letter/index.shtml

I would appreciate it if you could forward this link to anyone you 
think would be interested, and if you are a member of the press that 
you consider investigating and reporting on this story further.

As ever,
Sarah Cook
