we are not
all that stupid and it is some thing we have talked with matmos about
directly and
have thier blessing to use... in fact in thier words they dont have
xclusive rights over the name ... we are not a record label as the vague
terrain label is or a music side project (dont forget I am labelmates with
them on piehead - I am well aware of the name use) ... vagueterrain.net is
a digital arts journal and monthly digital art happening that not only
includes digital audio projects but digital video, digital image based
works, interactive digital art, netart, writtings, ideas and so on...
its a very different entity from that of matmos's vague terrain project...
a very common concept in digital art and digital culture isexaminig the
concepts of owership in the virtual realm. a name is a name I would never
have used the name for a music label fully knowing matmos uses it for that
exact
same thing but for a digital publication thats a different ball of wax...
