commodify dot org is a collaborative weblog for young, emerging artists trying to make a name for themselves on the net and otherwise. i urge you to check it out and send in your own stuff for inclusion. they're thinking of shutting down!

recently, the site's spotlight's been turned on Fred Tomaselli. "Tomaselli's work is tremendously complex, with patterns repeating and interacting on structural and thematic levels. He uses photo-collage, painting and traditional collage techniques to beautiful and disturbing effect."
