performance

Performance art is art in which the actions of an individual or a group at a particular place and time constitute the work. Performance art is a term usually reserved to refer to a kind of usually avant-garde or conceptual art which grew out of the visual arts. The term live art is a synonym referring to the same field of practices.

Pushing the boundary limits and continuously researching on new possible means of expression is a strong signifier of this field of art. Performance art remains a constant way to rebel against establishment and institutionalization. 

Performance art has evolved in various strands. Recent interesting developments include so-called networked performance and distributed performance tactics. Authors of such works emphasize the use of social media technologies and independent media channels for content distribution, incorporating internet technologies into their work.

  Battle: Windows 8 Developer Preview vs. Android 3.2 Honeycomb
  Here we are back with another test boot video of Windows 8. In this video, you'll see Android 3.2 Honeycomb installed on the new ASUS Transformer with Dock attached against the Windows 8 Developer Preview installed on the Dell Inspiron Mini 1012. The ASUS Transformer has 1GB RAM installed, with the 1GHz NVIDIA Tegra 2 dual-core processor. The Dell Mini 1012 has similar specs with 1GB RAM also, and a 1.6GHz Intel Atom processor. Both machines are fresh installs, and no settings added other than a user account and Wi-Fi 802.11 connection enabled. It is somewhat impressive to see that the Windows 8 machine comes very close to booting alongside Android 3.2 Honeycomb, as it's really loading 2 separate interfaces while Android is loading one. have a look at the video below and be the judge. Is Windows on the right track with Windows 8 metro style interface paired with the tradition OS desktop?
