2. Arrested

   Arrested" is a play on preconceptions regarding social, ethnic, religious, and political affiliations.

   Artist Statement
   Although created ten years ago "Arrested" continues to comment meaningfully on the phenomena of social classification and judgment (seemingly) inherent in human society. What makes the project particularly interesting and poignant is that it encourages reflection on the systems of labeling and judgment that are both internal and external (to the self), and invites readers to observe their own biases (with a possible chuckle).

   "Arrested" employs a flipbook format in which offenders and offenses are randomly culled from database repositories. The flipbook's random display of elements offers up individualized texts to each audience. These in turn provide the opportunity for individual interpretation (internal visualization) and subsequent contemplation.

   "Arrested" is both serious and silly. It is the intermingling of these that potentially provides the impetus for change in regards to awareness of/attitudes towards difference, and fears associated therewith.

3. Cent mille milliards de poèmes (web version, 1997)

   Cette oeuvre de Magnus Bodin est une adaptation pour le web de Cent mille milliards de poèmes de Raymond Queneau. Comme le livre original qui permettait, à l'aide de dix suites de quatorze vers destinés à être recombinés, de créer 100,000,000,000,000 poèmes différents, ce générateur de texte distribue aléatoirement les vers écrits par Queneau afin de créer une nouvelle combinaison chaque fois que l'utilisateur l'active ou recharge la page.
