To me, the list of contributors seems to be the weirdest part of it all. Meant in no offense to the people on the list (who include good friends, acquaintances, professors, contacts through festival work, and programmers of my work), I can only ask the question: Really?
This is exactly the sort of canonization that drives me crazy. Then again, what do I expect from an NYC poll?
Jeeze, now I feel like a bitter old man.

PS I encourage everyone on here to check out the work of Richard Myers, Dana Krumins, Michael Henderson, and countless others who seem lost to our small, but important sliver of the cultural spectrum.

The (hand-selected) list of the 46 contributors is at the bottom of the page. Would be interesting to see what an open Frameworks poll yielded (although certainly now that History Has Been Written, the results might now follow this list more than they would've otherwise).
