Lost in Internet, 2015. 2nd | A |
Lost in Internet ( 2015) is a website (www.lost-net.org) that only consists of a blank page. The longer the visitors are staying on the website, the more the white space expands. The site and its scroll bars are constantly expanding downwards and to the right, a ticker counts the growing pixel area; when the cursor is moved, the name of artists – Com & Com – appears. | |

Zen for Internet, 2014. 2nd | A | Using the iconography of the internet and computer, the work features an endlessly rotating “loading wheel” on a white background. Typically, the “loading wheel” is a temporary, in-between state before the fully loaded image appears. Zen for Internet, however, indefinitely freezes the in-between-ness; the final image never arrives. The artists conceived of this work existing in a variety of media: as a website (www.zen-net.org), a thirty-minute video, a painting, or as various types of merchandise including bags and t-shirts. Zen for Internet is a homage to Nam June Paiks "Zen for Film" (1964).
