World Premiere of Internet art project Object of Desire by Yael Kanarek
=============================
Object of Desire is the third chapter in World of Awe, and online
travelogue (worldofawe.net) that chronicles a search for lost treasure
in a parallel world called Sunset/Sunrise. The project imagines a
post-gender and post-national protagonist. Born from an observation
that language defines borders and territory on the Internet, Object of
Desire examines these borders, as the chapter is written in three
languages: English, Arabic and Hebrew. Challenging the notion of fixed
territory, thirteen scenes of the online project download from servers
in four locations-—in Ramallah, Tel Aviv, Izmir and New York.
Object of Desire has four web addresses by which to enter:
New York:
www.eyebeam.org/objectofdesire
Tel Aviv:

Ramallah:

Izmir:

=============================
Object of Desire was awarded a 2005 Renew Media Fellowship (funded by
the Rockefeller Foundation)
