  2. Listening Post

    Listening Post is an art installation by Mark Hansen and Ben Rubin that culls text fragments in real time from thousands of unrestricted Internet chat rooms, bulletin boards and other public forums. The texts are read (or sung) by a voice synthesizer, and simultaneously displayed across a suspended grid of more than two hundred small electronic screens.

    Listening Post cycles through a series of six movements, each a different arrangement of visual, aural, and musical elements, each with it’s own data processing logic.

    Dissociating the communication from its conventional on-screen presence, Listening Post is a visual and sonic response to the content, magnitude, and immediacy of virtual communication.

    Listening Post was displayed internationally between 2002-2006 and is now part of the collections of The London Science Museum, London, UK and The San Jose Museum of Art, San Jose, California, USA.

  3. Translation

    Author description: Translation (version 5) investigates iterative procedural "movement" from one language to another. Translation developed from an earlier work, Overboard. Both pieces are examples of literal art in digital media that demonstrate an "ambient" time-based poetics. As it runs the same algorithms as Overboard, passages within translation may be in one of three states — surfacing, floating, or sinking. But they may also be in one of three language states, German, French, or English. If a passage drowns in one language it may surface in another. The main source text for translation is extracted from Walter Benjamin's early essay, "On Language as Such and on the Language of Man." (Trans. Edmund Jephcott and Kingsley Shorter. One-Way Street and Other Writings. 1979. London: Verso, 1997. 107-23.) Other texts from Proust may also, less frequently, surface in the original French, and one or other of the standard German and English translations of In Search of Lost Time. The generative music for translation was developed in collaboration with Giles Perring who did the composition, sound design, performance, and recording of the sung alphabets.

  5. First Screening: Computer Poems

    A suite of a dozen kinetic poems programmed in Apple BASIC. Later, as the first versions became inaccessible, the works were recreated in HyperCard in the early 1990s (after bpNichol's death), and then in 2007 recreated in javascript for the web, and simultaneously the original BASIC and Hypercard files were republished for download.

  9. e-cris

    e-cris est un dispositif textuel et graphique de lecture-écriture "dans le même mouvement". Le principe du lien hypertextuel est ici détourné de ses fonctions habituelles de navigation au profit d'une activité d'écriture à partir de vingt et un textes personnels qui disent - un peu - de l'activité d'écrire. e-cris devait à l'origine s'hybrider avec le dispositif de saturation graphique saturactions selon certaines règles de conditions. On peut voir ce système embryonnaire dans la version 1.7 de e-cris, mais je ne l'ai pas poussé plus loin, préférant conduire les deux essais séparément. Cliquer sur un mot revient à l'écrire dans un autre texte - le texte-à-écrire - placé sous le texte-à-lire. Le texte écrit l'est donc seulement à partir d'un autre et selon le procédé littéraire du centon (ici à l'échelle du mot et non de la phrase). Que pourrez-vous écrire de personnel avec mes mots ?
