Notability

[edit]

I would argue that Stratten is notable for "Time Sculpture" but for little else. Neither his album nor his film project appear to have caught the same media attention as his initial commercial. As such, this page should probably be converted to a redirect to Time Sculpture under the guidance of WP:BLP1E. I ask @Adamcohen88: to weigh in on the issue as the article's primary author, as well as any other editors who wish to comment. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 18:32, 15 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The following is copied from my user talk page so that the discussion on Stratten's notability may be held in a single accessible location.

Time Sculpture could be seen as Mitch Stratten's most notable work in terms of commercial projects, although his album Nodern Loves You and the film OCP are still notable works because:

– the album Nodern Loves You was released on a serious record label with a long standing reputation (Sub Rosa) and received positive reviews and airplay from reliable sources as quoted on the Sub Rosa website [1]. I also found an archive audio recording of the BBC 3 Radio show Mixing It where Robert Sandall talks about the confidence and intensity of the album [2] and an article from Dazed and Confused magazine writing about the "viral" aspect of the promo video [3].

– the video art project OCP was released on the leading online video art platform Sedition where it is curated together with many of the most high profile names in the art world [4]. OCP received a special feature article in the Arts and Culture section of Dazed magazine on the accomplishments in making the film, where it also shows a behind the scenes video [5] and NTS radio spoke highly of the film on their "Synth Hero Show" [6]. In addition OCP was also shown as part of at least three (that I can find) established curated institutional arts programs: "Transparency, Fluidity and Mediation" at The ASAB Faculty of Arts in Bogotá [7], “Cinedans, Performative Film" at EYE Filmmuseum in Amsterdam [8] and "DANCE@30FPS" at The Wexner Center for the Arts in Columbus [9] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adamcohen88 (talkcontribs) 23:20, 15 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
