1. Traces

   "traces" is a locative media work delivered on mobile phone via video, audio and MP3, exploring the relationships of people, memory and place. In it, the environments we move through- the streets, buildings; the parks and bridges and alleyways of Sydney’s CBD - reveal themselves as sites rich with meaning, traced over with both personal and shared narrative.

2. En anarkist er død

   This piece commemorates the Norweigan anarchist Harald Beyer-Arnesen, who died in 2005 at the age of 52. The piece begins by showing an newspaper opened to his obituary, and then displays a screen version of the newspaper obituary with certain words and phrases linked. When the reader clicks on a link, material is shown - sometimes articles explaining communism and anarchism, other times the voice of a friend talking about Beyer-Arnesen, a scrollable photo of some of his books or movie sequences from his childhood.

3. Amazon Noir: The Big Book Crime

   Second piece of the 'The Hacking Monopolism Trilogy'

   This digital action (media hack and hack activism) was carried out in the global mass-media, within the art world and on a highly sophisticated technical level. Amazon e-commerce websites were vulnerable targets. We eluded the copyright protection with software robots that used the front door of the “Search Inside” service. We stole complete digital volumes of books, reassembled them into .pdf format and redistributed them for free. The action is documented by various types of offline conceptual installations.

5. You Are Not Here

   You Are Not Here (.org) is a platform for urban tourism mash-ups. It invites participants to become meta-tourists on simultaneous excursions through multiple cities. Passers-by stumble across the curious You Are Not Here signs in the street. The YANH street-signs provide the telephone number for the Tourist Hotline, a portal for audio-guided tours of one place on the streets of another. Through investigation of these points and with or without the aid of a downloadable map, local pedestrians are transformed into tourists of foreign places. Current walking tours include Baghdad through the streets of New York City and Gaza City through the streets of Tel-Aviv.

6. Wordtoys

   Wordtoys is a pioneering work in the field of electronic literature in Spanish, which proposes a reading exercise as a task in deciphering that doubles as a narrative toy. It gathers together a series of works in hypertext, e-poetry, and audiovisuals made from 1996 to the present. Framed within the context of net poetry, with roots in the historical avant-garde that emphasized the materiality of signs, these works are constructed using randomness, permutability, process, games and re-writes.

7. Ulysses 101

   Comme son titre l'indique, Ulysses 101 est une adaptation transmédiatique du roman de James Joyce publié en 1922, et dont les événements relatés se déroulent le 16 juin 1904, soit 101 ans avant la mise en ligne de l'oeuvre hypermédiatique. Sur un fond blanc, trois fenêtres carrées sont juxtaposées horizontalement afin de constituer un bandeau. Un nombre est attribué à chacune des fenêtres, la première est identifiée par « one », la seconde par « zero » et la dernière à nouveau par « one », transformant ainsi l’écart initialement noté (101) en nombre binaire (101, c’est-à-dire 5). Ces fenêtres renferment deux types de contenu, soit de courtes séquences filmées et des extraits de texte disposés adroitement. Le triptyque qu’elles constituent est aléatoire. Les séquences filmées offrent tour à tour des images d’une femme interviewée dans un café, d’une chaise berçante juchée sur un meuble en bois, d’un homme attablé dans un café et dessinant sur les pages d’un cahier, d’une porte couverte de graffitis qui s’ouvre en grinçant, de gens marchant la nuit dans les rues de Québec, d’une femme jouant de l’accordéon dans un local, etc.

8. Glass

   The Prince sits awkwardly on the couch, holding his glass slipper and trying to keep it from crushing. Lucinda and Theodora have the ends of the same couch, and they are taking turns seeing who can bend lowest and show off the most cleavage; while the old lady, in her wing chair, carries on about nonsense… Glass is a conversation-oriented fairy tale, taking place in one room. It is likely to take only a few minutes to play once, but can be played several times to different endings.

9. Detective Bonarense

   Detective bonarense is a detective novel with all the characteristics of the genre and certain excepcional eccentricities: it is written as the diary of the detective Aristóbulo García, an avatar, who moves through Swedish geography chaising Aranita, one of the members of the robbery of Bank Río; a case that was on the news in 2005. The author explained his experience with blog fiction: “the truth, is what makes the reader get into the ‘lie’ I am telling, it is achieved sweating ink-instead of bytes-it is a fight with one word and another.

10. Poesía asistida por computadora

    Without inspiration? Use PAC system, following these simple steps, and you will see how the cybernetic muse appears (from your URL bar). This is the way Poesía Asistida por Computadora-Assisted Poetry by Computer- is introduced, a tool for blocked poets that allows them to find new ways in the sense o f the verse. The process of use of the tool is simple: In the first place we introduce a seed verse from which we can change some words by others that the application gives us back simply pushing on them. We can also stir the verse, modify its structure and content. Although the result can be incoherent the grammatical mistakes can be revised. Repeating the process with different verses we will compose little by little the poem.
