Gair,

As prompted from:
"...the making sense  not only of the juxtaposition of objects, but 
the other factor which is then added to that from the position of the 
viewer."
"We can escape from the prison of media-specificity...and
...the boundaries of new media curators"

this:
- On juxtaposition - and the boundaries of new media curators-
These boundaries pre-figure in the process of individuation, the ergonomics,
the modes and platforms of reception of "new media or digital art". 
The restricted - restrictive points of views -one angle at a time are 
collected and bounded as intertextual and hybrid,  Locked within 
chronological (time-based) collage or juxtaposition I would argue 
that these new media art-reconfigurations  reiterate and perpetuate 
hierarchies (boundaries). Irony always luring.

Relational aesthetics point to social interstices - as you suggest 
"the individual viewer/experiencers'relation to the demotic, to 
slang, to minority knowledges becomes a live factor in the reception 
and the unknowability of result in the artists mind".
Could social interstices as such be habit forming or potentially 
recuperated and commodified to be  "theoretically correct"?
