This is an abridged version of a much longer report submitted to The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation in early 2007. The investigations and conversations with practitioners that form the basis of this report were conducted by David Dower while he was serving as artistic director of Z Space Studio in San Francisco, and were supported with a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
