Short history of the LIX
The LIX Index was originally
commissioned by Film and Video Umbrella for its Slipstream project http://www.slipstream.uk.net/ and
explored in this document www.lucykimbell.com/LIX.pdf.
Some of the ideas were developed further in a research project called
Personal Indices funded by the Arts Council of Englandís New Media
Projects Fund (2001); in a research commission called the LIX-E/MiCCI at
The Media Centre, Huddersfield, for the Digital Research Unit (2001-2);
and through a research project entitled ëArt Economiesí awarded to artist
group Soda funded by London Arts (1998). |
