Description:

Many artists and works represented online are indispensable to the history of digital media art; however, web sites are ephemeral and artworks posted on websites and its documentation frequently disappear. The insecurity of access to these materials presents serious obstacles to teaching courses on the history of digital media art. To facilitate future scholarship and classroom teaching, Cornell University Library is preserving and making accessible selected websites identified as important in understanding the history of digital media art. The items in this collection are intended for use in the teaching of Digital Media Art at Cornell University.

Title: Kuai Shen Auson

URL: http://kuaishen.tv/

Description: Kuai Shen Auson's "... artistic approach to self-organization and emergence is envisioned in audiovisual installations that reflect on interspecies artistic collaboration with ants and the metaphor of a post-human ecology, an ecology whose future lies in the communication between species and the mutualism between technological media (human artifacts) and insect media (biological organisms). His current research focuses on ant mimicry in the post-biologic technology of humans based on phenomenology, resilient networks and mimicry." - http://kunstetage-deutz.de/kuenstler/kuaishen/, accessed 2014 May 01

Title: The Pirate Cinema: A Cinematic Collage Generated by P2P Users, The Pirate Cinema: A Cinematic Collage Generated by Peer-to-Peer Network Activity

URL: http://thepiratecinema.com/

Description: "In the context of omnipresent telecommunications surveillance, “The Pirate Cinema” makes the hidden activity and geography of Peer-to-Peer file sharing visible. The project is presented as a monitoring room, which shows Peer-to-Peer transfers happening in real time on networks using the BitTorrent protocol. The installation produces an arbitrary cut-up of the files currently being exchanged. This immediate and fragmentary rendering of digital activity, with information concerning its source and destination, thus depicts the topology of digital media consumption and uncontrolled content dissemination in a connected world." -- from the website, 2/4/2015 "TPC is based on a data interception software. It reveals, through a simple diversion, different aspects of exchange platforms, such as the global and multi-situated nature of Peer-to-Peer networks (P2P), the potential for viral transmission, and alternative social models. Its purpose is to make available for aesthetic exploration the pre-existing potentials of Peer-to-Peer architectures." -- from the website, 2/4/2015

Title: Vertical Roll

URL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-oqJZOFzbfA

Description: "Vertical Roll is a seminal work. In a startling collusion of form and content, Jonas constructs a theater of female identity by deconstructing representations of the female body and the technology of video. Using an interrupted electronic signal — or "vertical roll" — as a dynamic formal device, she dislocates space, re-framing and fracturing the image." - Electronic Arts Intermix. http://www.eai.org/title.htm?id=2013, accessed 2014 February 23

Title: Imagining Media @ ZKM, Telematic Vision, Telekonferenz-Installation

URL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9GXh-btbrk

Description: "Telematic Vision' consists of a structure, identical in each case, at two locations that can be as far away from each other as wished, and are connected by telephone: a blue sofa, opposite it a large monitor, and a small monitor on each side of the sofa. A video camera records the events on the sofa and sends the images to a video mixer. The pictures from the two locations are mixed and transmitted to the large monitors. Additionally, live television images are fed in as a background. Person A sits on the blue sofa in one location. Person B sits on the blue sofa in the other location. On the large monitor the two people see themselves sitting together on a sofa, whose 'cover' is made up of television images. The two (or more) people on the sofas can react to each other and to the situation through mime and gestures and communicate with each other. They find themselves together in a virtual space, despite the distance separating them. Sofa and television evoke the everyday situation of passive TV consumers, though here they are involved in an open, complex form of action and interaction. At the same time the people sitting on the sofa become actors performing in front of the public standing around them." -- 2/11/2015, from http://www.medienkunstnetz.de/works/telematic-vision/
