As a Born-Again Visual Artist, I was destined, by birth, to have one foot set into two different generations of art history. One side of me was raised on the Analogue milk tit, and the other side followed – learning to breath under the surface of a digital buzz of bits, gigs, and ram dimms… The key to surviving in both worlds, for me, has been a story as much about observation, as it has been over implementation. My experience in the music recording business, with Russell Berger, in the mid to late 1970’s, perhaps was my most essential primer. The digital convergence arrived at our recording console as a forewarning to me, personally – that my analogue explorations, in the image capture realm – in which I was also exercising, would come to meet an eventual digital intervention as well – a decade later. That sagacious voyage was one I was prepared for – as I knew my journey through the world of image capture would grow to become a continually amending sojourn. And so it has. Accordingly, in this moment, I slow, and take in a greater apprehension of it all, and what my pliability to the nature of my perceptions has made of me – a maker of Digital Artifacts. – Brad Michael Moore 5/29/2008
