In Case You Missed It - January 2012

Almost a month in to 2012, and we have had some great articles here at Technology in the Arts. Let’s take a look back at our strong start to the new year as this January comes to a close.

Social media was on the forefront of the minds here, as we covered Pinterest, Percolate, and Instagram but all that social media had us wondering: are you really my friend? We also take our gaming very seriously, and this month the Lourve picked up some cool new toys from Nintendo.

Policy in art dominated the news, and we took a look at SOPA and PIPA  as well as challenges facing public works of art. Of course, none of those cities fell on the list of the top ten most artistic cities in the country – where does your city rank?

All in all, we really enjoyed the beginning of 2012. What was your favorite tech and arts story this month?
