Is anyone going to CBAA conference?

The College Book Arts Association is holding its inaugural conference in January 2009 and I was wondering if anyone from this group is attending? If so would they be able to post something about the conference in their blog section so we could all find out what they think of the event and its proceedings?

book publishers joining the artist book 3.0

there seems to be a few publishers of books about art and craft and a bookshop owner joining this artists book social network. I wonder if they are trying to get free advertising or is it that they just do not understand what an artists' book is?

There have been a couple of discussions about digital artists' books on this site - can anyone recommend any Victorian based digital artist book artists for a possible project? Otherwise some Australian based digital book artists?
