Passim: "What Joseph Wore" is set in the cultural
context of an electronic information era.
|
| This
piece is a an arrangement of data files that are in the form
of text and pixelated images organized in the hypertextual format
of the Internet. |
| This
electronic data pertaining to the subject of the exhibition
could also be called electro-midrash. |
| It
brings attention to correlations between net research and research
of Hebrew literature. Both are nonlinear emergent systems engaging
interconnection, cross-reference, commentary, interpretation,
semiotics, and find meaningful information utilizing key words
or characters. |
| My
approach to new media is similar to the way that I approach
painting. This is to immerse in the environment of the medium
and emphasize the process of construction. |
|
The content of my current work is similar to the content of
my work as a painter. This includes exploring relationships
of diversity and contrast, experimenting with possible options
within set boundaries, and analyzing how multiple elements function
in network relationships. |
| I
consider the arts networks of language, inscription and code
systems extending through histories, locations and cognitions. |
|
I am interested in the relationships between emerging technologies
and contemporary art, experimental media practices, theoretical,
socio-cultural, and historical discourse. |
| My
work is an exploration of art as a discipline for understanding
knowledge structures, behaviors and art practice. It is intermedia-multidisciplinary,
research-oriented and accumulative. I often look to anthropology,
linguistics and cognitive science as well as multiple cultural
traditions in forming material and actions into semiotic representation. |
