the story of Narcissus: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissus_%28mythology%29]
Qs:
- what features of video define an 'aesthetics of narcissism'?
- how does narcissism arise from and reflect our current cultural condition?
- what are the differences between 'reflectiveness' and 'reflexiveness' (or the 'self-reflective'), in reference to modern art (i.e. Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns) and the video artists mentioned?
- must a 'medium' be material?
