An Xiao started blogging for a new column, Art 2.1: Creating on the Social Web, for the Art:21 blog.
Social technologies have been around for decades, but mainstream use of social media platforms has grown exponentially only over recent years. This column explores uses of social media platforms relevant to the arts community: by artists, art-based organizations, and the general audience. Leading off the column is a post from New York-based artist, An Xiao.
