TWO ON-LINE NET-ART EXHIBITS

I thought this was an interesting mix of a clutch of new, online exhibits
at the Walker together with a large show at the German ZKM Museum that is
about artists reviewing the interaction between society and technology.

From the WebPage:
=22 As the title of the exhibition supposes, net=5Fcondition is not about
=22net-art for net-art's sake=22=3B rather, it's about the artist's look at =
the
way society and technology interact with each other, are each
other's =22condition=22: At the dawn of information society, there's a
growing demand for knowledge, data exchange, entertainment, and it
frequently has to be =22just in time=22, =22on demand=22, =22in real
time=22. The technical answer to this is called =22internet=22. At the same
time, the net itself is shaping society, new fields of social,
commercial, and artistic interaction emerge. There are new possibilities,
even those no one ever asked for.
=22In this rich field of opportunities, utopian and emancipatory hopes
re-appear on stage=3B equality of chances, world citizenship,
participation without borders are regarded as technically doable and
are promoted by private communities, while the global players in the
commercial world go for their goals with the very same technical
means.
=22Social interaction is changing with the net. From the point of view of
the history of media, we also see a change in the way people play
music, remember, tell stories, design, play. net=5Fcondition is
talking about how these changes are reflected, presented, and researched
by net artists. Also, net=5Fcondition is about how events in
real space and events in the virtual =22space=22 of the net react to each =
other,
trigger each other, or just collide. Distributed Virtual Reality,
Shared Cyberspace, non-local communications, multi user
environments and net games - these are some of the main topics of
net=5Fcondition.
=22For Peter Weibel, head of the ZKM and curator of net=5Fcondition, has
high hopes for the role net-art is about to play. Says he: =BBAt
present, net art is the driving force, which is the most radical in
transforming the closed system of the aesthetic object of modern
art into the open system of post-modern (or second modern) fields
of action.=AB
