Palm Rants (2001)
Palm Rants is a series of performance/ rants I will create over the course of the (re)distribution exhibition curated by Patrick Lichty.The information will be delivered in 3 forms;
1. a short movie or audio file that may be downloaded onto a PDA and viewed with TealMovie software.
2. a clickable image animation downloadable via an AvantGo custom channel
3. a text of the rant downloadable via an AvantGo custom channel.
The intention of this piece is to extend the idea of performance art into the hand held format. Accessors will receive a new performance every week for 16 weeks. The content of these performances will be meditations on information dispersal and the post media environment. I will approach this as both an exercise and a challenge. The piece will be an extended performance over a sixteen week period. The challenge is to stay fresh, to become both an information nomad and an information filter. The subject of the performances will be the work of art in a networked environment. The subject of this piece will be the artist in a networked world.
