John Klima was one of the more interesting media artists I have read about. It was cool that he thought about alternatives to the way that windows organizes and access files and folders. I too, have tried to imagine alternatives. His Glassbead creation, could probably be applied to an operating system. I imagine the membrane being the main harddrive and as programs are launched and files are accessed, new stems and pistils pop out.
The overall idea of collaboration with out being there live reminds me of the Telegarden. The group The Postal Service creates their music this way. They record vocals and instruments seperately, and then mail the parts of the music to the respective members, so the next part can be done. They don't actually appear in a studio together. This is also where they got their name from because they rely on the U.S. postal service for their band to run.
