Remediations. Art in Second Life
by Domenico Quaranta
"SL is literally teeming with artists. ...and it is probably the only
virtual world to have succeeded in focusing global attention on
contemporary art, thanks to artists such as Eva and Franco Mattes
(0100101110101101.ORG) and Cao Fei...." Art critic and curator
Domenico Quaranta's report on SL art.
Created Identities: Hybrid Cultures and the Internet
by Ian M Clothier
"Heterogeneity, multiplicity and rupture are three aspects of Deleuze
and Guattari's rhizome.... This makes the internet an entirely
suitable place to manufacture a hybrid cultural identity..." Ian M.
Clothier's 'The District of Leistavia' is a hybrid cultural entity
based on the Internet.
Álvarez-Fernández: Sound Amateur
by Silvia Scaravaggi
Art critic/curator Silvia Scaravaggi discusses 'Soundanism' by

connections between sound, art and physiology."

Web.Art's Nature
by Andrej Tisma

concept and principle and some earlier forms of communicative art
such as mail-art in the early 60’s and network art in the 80’s."
Artist Andrej Tisma relocates the historical connection of Web.Art to
Mail Art and the network movement.
Exile as Noise - Noise as Exile
by Dror Feiler
"For me to be in exile, to be an immigrant is like being "NOISE" in
musical context....a person is here bodily pushed over borders by
forces beyond his or her control." Composer/musician Dror Feiler
draws a parallel between the state of exile and the musicality of
noise music.
