- The 2nd Temple (1995/1996)
Student work: My first project. Experiments with HTML code. The idea was to build up the (virtual) 2nd temple. - Digital Eden (1998) [Lost project]
Student work: It was my best one. A fictional cyber mullah (Ayatollah X) declares the virtual jihad long before 9/11.
My provider and my professors hated this work, cause this work was too excessive and too political incorrect. And so...
my work disappeared. I think, they didn't saw the upcoming war.
- Digital Troja (1999)
Student work: Why humanities first epos, the iliad, was an epos of war ? I think, war is needless. Fight against yourself and not against the others ! Very pathetic *lol
- Brainwash (2000) [Concept (german)]
My diploma. Imagine, a fictional web shop, and you can buy weapons, flowers etc...the web as a big shopping mall. The web is a dead birth full of lies and mental diseases like greediness / simplemindedness.
- The Virtual Mine (2001)
A project about virtual digging. You will find the concept there.
- HEL (2005)
A fictional community of people who commit suicide. Very political incorrect.
- Walhalla (2007)
A fictional community of revolutioners. Maybe the only one of its kind in the world :-) Very political incorrect.
- Isolation (2010.02.22) / is opened.
The idea is, a big "gathering" from revolutioners and victims. A real boring scavenger hunt thru NYC.
I built years ago a revolutioner community HEL and Walhalla, a community of people who commit suicide.
"Isolation" will bring them together.
Only a political correct blast is a good blast. And you can get a further education.
You have 80 streets/levels to handle. The only important thing is "please answer the questions" or you'll never reach the next level. You have 10 mins per level (otherwise timeout and kick).
Isolation is a senseless meditation about life and digital rheumatism. You can not change the world with art but it's funny. Isolation is an illusion, so do i.
Comment: Ok, it is too hard for the most people. It could become difficult to find the right answer, so you should type:
i don't know
The only difference is: you'll get penalty points (-500).
But if you press wrong buttons you will be banned for 24 houres.
I started this project 12.12.2008 and it's the first programmed work with database, actionscript, sql, javascript et cetera.
I never programmed before. It was fun but also my private guantanamo. I never write preliminary a concept for my works.
Mostly after I had finished the work. How batshit insane can you get as artist ? Very.
The interface seems like a game but it's only a "simulation" of a gaming situation/atmosphere. A kind of anti-game. The most games are stupid. I kill more than you, I'm better than you, I'm faster, I will safe the world or cheerleaders...get score, get virtual money, items and other stupid things...in the real world we die "real", we kill another "real" and there is no 2nd chance and no 2nd life. Fuck, i love the "real" life.
GoTo ISOLATION ! - Coming next "TOD"(20**)
update: I don't like the english language, so I've decided to rename the upcoming project. The new name is TOD. The german language is more specific, more trancendental. I think in german, and it's my native language and i can't use it for my artworks.It's a curse.
The interface is built. The database works. I think in 2 month TOD will be online.
Statement: I give a shit about the disgusting western phrases like "Happiness, and Freedom for the rest of the world". The same crap, in a different way, is what some islamic fractions want. Science will rescue us ? They are dabblers and soldier for hier. What can we do ? Stop thinking dualistic. Contrasts like "good and bad", "darknes and light", "death and life" are pain in the ass.
Death / Tod is coming. The evil will uprise. Where is my popcorn ? *rofl
"If you don't like me, choose me as your target. Wherever I'm, send me your personal "TOD" (in many ways). Don't look at me like that ! Otherwise i'll send you mine !"
