1. Code Movie 1

   Code Movies are made with hex, ASCII, and binary codes extracted from JPG images. Saved as simple text, they are reworked and edited in Flash. They are part of a larger project I've been working on since 2004 (//**Code_UP). The submitted work (Code Movie 1) is made of hexa code. The project interrogates the role of the code in meaning construction and the new forms of translations that digital languages embody. It questions: Now that the Cybertext confuses itself with the notion of Place (a web address, for example) and that Image only reveals itself through a "hyperinscription" (a URL), can we think in a poetics of transcodification between media and file formats? Can we keep talking about "WYSIWYG" utopias? How does it affect our ways of reading, seeing, and perceiving?

   It’s a visual game and almost non-textual. You play by clicking on the active areas. It’s not always easy to see the areas so you need to click around and just try for a while. There are sounds when you click on different areas. The game takes place in something looking like a small town, and smaller images pops up when you click on items.
