[[http://www.remotelounge.com/art/ar_curators.html:Remote Lounge]] **Abstract** How does the malleable nature of new media affect the curatorial practice? Is curation assimilating the position of the producer, distributor, historian, and artist? How do these actions of production mimic the entertainment structures in relation to artistic practice and distribution? The Post Media Network project is an action which demonstrates the continuous evolution of the uses of and term 'media'. The physical and virtual network thus presents perspective and action as content to distribute as a fluid medium comforming naturally to varied platforms and locations. </div>
