Everyone is sick of paying for usefulness anyway...

The practice of many, if not most, artists who work with the digital medium today is extremely hybrid. They may create online projects but they might also do object-based art, paintings or sculptures that are deeply informed by or use elements of the net or its "language," which is what the term postinternet tries to capture. I have issues with the term since it postulates a temporality that simply doesn't hold up—we are by no means "after" the internet—but it still captures a very real and important condition, a fusion of the material and immaterial that is different from anything we have seen before. The Internet of Things and James Bridle's New Aesthetic are both expressions of that. (Sadly I now frequently see postinternet used as a catchy term for art made by anyone born roughly after 1985 or for a sensibility characterized by an uncomplicated reverence for fame and success.)

Life unveils new layers and meanings constantly it's actually overwhelming. The way the internet comes up with ways for us to compartmentalize the aspects of growth and decomposition has become an incredibly useful tool. But it's just a tool and if you don't know how to use it properly you can hurt yourself, just like in carpentry. These 12-inches are tools for producers. They have many uses, some more helpful then others. So I believe a title should also have many uses.

So the self, as a product, loses its enchantment for us and needs to be revitalized to the extent that it becomes familiar, known, understood. We love ourselves only as a novelty, a mystery, not as a staple product. We want to be able to apprehend ourselves as a new, desirable thing that we can consume and enjoy. This makes us feel relevant, marketable. We can imagine someone buying into the idea of us, and that helps us buy into ourselves. But inevitably our desire for ourselves needs to be renewed, and we will need to be repackaged.

‘Respect for religion’ has become a code phrase meaning ‘fear of religion.’ Religions, like all other ideas, deserve criticism, satire, and, yes, our fearless disrespect.”

Javascreen

Creative coding project by Tristan Bagot adds generative style motifs to fashion photography - each display is different from the next. Video embedded below:

Art direction has a crucial role to play in the use of the various screens at our disposal. Nowadays, a master visual is designed indifferently for all sorts of platforms, be they digital or physical. JavaScreen is a new display system using an algorithm to graphically reinterpret content thousands of times without losing its intrinsic character. As part of my project, it creates a generative design applied to a series of fashion photos and enhances the visual aesthetics of the image : colors, shapes, thickness, verticality, opacity… These graphics are then animated with the image becoming more eye-catching and each time the image is loaded, it creates a unique composition depending on the photograph.

You can see the project working in your browser (along with other background information) at the project website here

Tristan also has a Tumblr blog [isentropie] featuring the original photographs, which can be found here

FRAMED* — A Revolutionary Platform For Digital Art

FRAMED allows you to showcase an infinite selection of digital artworks in everyday environments.

I've had the pleasure of using this product and can't wait to get my own. Hopefully the wider acceptance of digital / new media art in the home/office looks a lot like this.
