Deck has made art software since 1990, initially using it to produce short films. Since 1994, he has worked with the Web using the sites artcontext.com and andyland.net. An avid critic of corporate culture and militarism, Deck's hybrid news-art projects have addressed a variety of issues that are regularly misrepresented in the mass media. In the interest of preserving this available alternative media, and sensing the drift of the Internet toward a marketing and entertainment medium, he has allied himself with open source software developers, optimizing his work for use with the Linux operating system, and publishing source code for much of his software. His works have been exhibited at: Art on the Net (Machida City Museum, Tokyo), Net_Condition (ZKM, Karlsruhe, Germany), War Bulletin Board (Postmaster's Gallery, NYC), Graffic Jam (Thing.net, NYC) 1998 Prix Ars Electronica (Linz, Austria), Mac Classics (Postmaster's Gallery, NYC). Andy studied for a Post-diplôme, at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs, Paris; and received his MFA in Computer Art at School of Visual Arts, NYC. He has taught at the Universidad Internacional Menéndez Pelayo, Sarah Lawrence College, and New York University. Currently he teaches at the School of Visual Arts.

He is Senior Editor of The Thing (bbs.thing.net). A former member of Critical Art Ensemble (1987 to 1994 - developers of the theory of Electronic Civil Disobedience in the late 80's). Currently a Fake_Fakeshop Worker (www.fakeshop.com), a hybrid performance group, presented at the Whitney Biennial 2000. Ricardo has collaborated on a number of international net_art projects: with Francesca da Rimini on Dollspace (www.thing.net/~dollyoko), the Aphanisis Project with Diane Ludin. Artificial_Geographic with Fakeshop at Next5Minutes, and distributedhuman.net a recombinant project with net.artist Zhang Ga. He also presented EDT's SWARM action at Ars Electronica's InfoWar Festival in 1998 (Linz, Austria). His first digital zapatismo project was in 1996 - 97, a three month RealVideo/Audio network project: The Zapatista/Port Action at (MIT). His essays have appeared at Ctheory (www.ctheory.org) and recently an article in "Corpus Delecti: Performance Art of the Americas," (Routledge, 2000), edited by Coco Fusco. He Edited EDT's forthcoming book Hacktivism: network_art_activism, (Autonomedia Press, 2001). For more info: www.thing.net/~rdom JON IPPOLITO: is part of the artistic team of Blais/Frank/Ippolito (formerly Cohen/Frank/Ippolito), and is Assistant Curator of Media Arts at the Guggenheim Museum, New York. While most other collaborative teams present their work as a "unified front," Joline Blais, Keith Frank, and Jon Ippolito create installations, books, and Web projects that emphasize physical, verbal, or mental struggles among the three participants. They have exhibited their work at galleries such as Sandra Gering and Storefront for Art + Architecture in New York as well as in a variety of online contexts such as the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. In 1996 they received a DNP Achievement Award for their work Agree to Disagree Online, developed with the assistance of Joline Blais. 1997 they received a Louis Comfort Tiffany Prize for their body of work. In 1993 Jon curated Virtual Reality: An Emerging Medium. Since then, as Assistant Curator of Media Arts at the Guggenheim, Ippolito has curated and coordinated exhibitions that explore

FLUXLIST: CAROLEE SCHNEEMANN - MORE WRONG THINGS
CAROLEE SCHNEEMANN MORE WRONG THINGS 18 Jan - 10 Feb 2001 White Box Gallery 525 West 26th Street New York NY 10001 (212) 714-2347 More Wrong Things is a site specific multi-channel video installation. The installation activates the entire gallery space with fourteen video monitors suspended from the ceiling within an extended tangle of wires, cables and cords. Video loops seen on the monitors sequence a compendium of Wrong Things; juxtaposing Schneemann's visual archives of personal and public disasters. These elements are composed in relation to the beams, conduits and pipes which define the distinctive architectural aspects of White Box Gallery. More Wrong Things offers a counter-position to current trends of costly fabrication and refined presentation. A wall of recent Iris prints further integrates sources of more wrong things. The opening is January 18th from 6-8 PM

A `round-the-clock posting of sequenced hypermodern imagery from Brad Brace. The hypermodern minimizes the familiar, the known, the recognizable; it suspends identity, relations and history. This discourse, far from determining the locus in which it speaks, is avoiding the ground on which it could find support. It is trying to operate a decentering that leaves no privilege to any center. The 12-hour ISBN JPEG Project - began December 30, 1994 Pointless Hypermodern Imagery... posted/mailed every 12 hours... a spectral, trajective alignment for the 00`s! A continuum of minimalist masks in the face of catastrophe; conjuring up transformative metaphors for the everyday... A poetic reversibility of exclusive events... A post-rhetorical, continuous, apparently random sequence of imagery... genuine gritty, greyscale... corruptable, compact, collectable and compelling convergence. The voluptuousness of the grey imminence: the art of making the other disappear. Continual visual impact; an optical drumming, sculpted in duration, on the endless present of the Net. An extension of the printed ISBN-Book (0-9690745) series... critically unassimilable... imagery is gradually acquired, selected and re-sequenced over time... ineluctable, vertiginous connections. The 12hr dialtone...
