Invisible Threads is aproject by Stephanie Rothenberg and Jeff Crouse that explores the growing intersection between labor, emerging virtual economies and real life commodities.
This is a little experiment I did for a project I am working on called OPML Blast. The goal is to cram as much feed information into as little space as possible while still allowing the viewer to have some minimal level of retension, if not comprehension.
A Dirt Party is a gathering where the guests are scrutinized during the course of the party using resources from the Web. The results are presented to the other guests in a variety of ways. The first Dirt Party took place at the Eyebeam 10th Anniversary Benefit, where the output was a series of dynamically generated tabloid covers.
It took me all day to compile enough content from mt feed reader to make this video - and another day to mash it all together. FeedBlast will do this all for you.
Based on the poem "Rift" by Charles Bukowski. The goal of the Rift game is to drink as much beer as possible before your lady friend leaves you. You must strike the perfect balance between halfhearted pillowtalk, sardonic laughter, and drinking. The lady will inevitably get fed up sooner or later - they always do. Your job is just to keep her there as long as possible.
