T.Whid of MTAA, a Brooklyn-based conceptual and internet art collaboration,
describes the group�s
work as, �a real-time fiction played out on the internet and documented
with the artifacts
exhibited in this show.� MTAA's first solo show presents projects it has
produced using the
internet as an interactive social medium. The show includes The Direct To
Your Home Art Projects
(DYHAP), a set of instructions on how to construct MTAA artworks. Also
included is Site Unseen, a
collection of 100 titles for artworks that MTAA will create for anyone at
100 bucks per work. All
the works may be viewed while listening to the Audio Tour and Extended
Dance Mix created
exclusively for this show at WALDEN. The Audio Tour features MTAA, with

and Yab Yum.
MTAA is a collaboration between the artists Mark River and T. Whid. They
have recently presented
work at Art and Idea, Mexico City and through 9/9 Review of Practical Art,

will be included in the online project Art Entertainment Network, curated
by the Walker Art
Center, in February 2000. MTAA's work may be found online at their website
