Levitated | the Exploration of Computation A huge timesaver: extremely usefull collection of opensource Flash Objects by the amazing Jared Tarbell. The code is pure and robust OOP, so very nice to ‘deconstruct’…

… A note on Sondheim (fading, exploding, fading)… One of the more ambitious stuff going on here is the attempt to formulate answers to analyses like the one from Alan Sondheim below (see http://www.anu.edu.au/english/internet_txt/net4.txt for the complete source text). ‘Answers’ is a bad word, however, it’s more a matter of writing into this kind of […]

“In any net content, but most explicit and visible in commercial content, there’s a strict division between the data and the representation, the business logic and the representational logic.

E-paper displays gaining acceptance – Hardware – www.itnews.com.au E-paper displays gaining acceptance – Hardware – www.itnews.com.au An eager wish for this kinda technology to break through.

… “Le livre unique, l’oeuvre totale, toutes les combinaisons possibles à l’intérieur du livre, le livre-arbre, le livre-cosmos, tous ces ressassement chers aux avant-gardes, qui coupent le livre de ses relations avec le dehors, sont encore pires que le chant du signifiant” Deleuze & Guattari, Mille plateaux,p.159 When Deleuze and Guattari wrote this, there was […]

… If the quality of net art is to be measured by the number of pop-up windows one produces, i will score very badly indeed. Why do all these artists use a pop up window? To liberate their art from the burden of browsers. To make it ‘autonomous’ on the screen. Do they succeed by […]

… SEARCHING = BUILDING = WRITING;no difference whatsoever. No hay caminos, hay que caminar. …

…Somebody (or some automated process – it’s hard to distiguish in mails these days) send me a mail to invite me to enter the NKdeE in the NET VISION category of the Prix ARS Electronica 2005, which i did of course because the i don’t mind getting prices at all and who knows i might […]

Sprachgitter: Here’s part of another grid to put down on your visions. Or think of it as a fluid that you add to a digestive organ system to make the way it works visible on screen. The time was now. We lived in a world of objects. Objects with properties and relations to each other […]

not much of a question is it. i’ve started building the game mode of the NKdeE yesterday. there’s no way out of it, no matter how much you think things through: any cultural interface that has any meaning will somehow resemble Simms, tombraider and the like. no use in waiting for the next step, either […]

Je zoekt in vliezen, op het lillen van een tong(of waar je van de puntje puntje puntjesuitschuift in een oordeelsvorm) een parallellenoodbezweerder (nood, nood, nood), die met de moed en wanhoop der waanzinnigenin de ongekuiste hoekjes van de kamersdie je platwoont spiegelschilfers los wil weken, vuurbouwen, zee stoken en goud brouwen. Een wonderlijke wens, ik […]

Een boom in dit huis, uit de vloer vorkt een stam, de daksponten kraken. Je wordt het salon uitgesleurd, men duwt je het bad in, een gezichtsloze vrouw haalt in een oogwenk met een glasscherf van je beide armen de slagaders open. Een gordijn van blauwgrijze lianen wordt over je hoofd getrokken. De scene verwildert. […]
