Javascript meditation

March 4th, 2003
 

Un componimento incomprensibile, un po’ in francese un po’ in inglese, figlio zoppicante di un translator mal programmato. La traccia sonora di un elettrocardiogramma, che ritma lenta un succedersi apparentemente interminabile di pagine che si moltiplicano, si spostano sullo schermo, si ridimensionano, lampeggiano – e che, come al cinema, ha una brusca accelerata finale per sfociare in un unico, fastidioso, interminabile beeeeeeeeeeeeeep.
1n-0ut, ultimo lavoro del net artista francese jimpunk, è, come specifica subito, una meditazione in bianco e nero su un dualismo che, comunque venga riproposto, è sempre lo stesso: interno ed esterno, uno e zero, acceso e spento, luce ed ombra, bianco e nero, bene e male, vita e morte. Virtuoso del dynamic html, jimpunk prosegue la linea ‘decostruttiva’ della prima net.art. Come i costruttivisti degli anni Venti e Trenta però, raccoglie il gesto dada di Jodi, Vuk Cosic e Alexei Shulgin per costruire, comporre una sinfonia che affida il suo messaggio non ai testi (del tutto inesistenti), non alle immagini (ridotte a semplicissime icone), ma all’astratto fluire delle pagine. Pagine con cui l’utente può interagire, anche se il suo intervento si dimostra completamente ininfluente su un percorso che è già programmato: come il defibrillatore sul cuore malato di un moribondo. (domenico quaranta)

[If you’ve got a spare 5 minutes, check out the new web piece by jimpunk.com. It’s got sound but it’s not loud. Let’s call this an elegy for a certain brand of techno-futurism, but perhaps for a constructivist ethos as a whole, whether it be the international style, those assembly-line short haircuts or gray browser windows. A beautiful, melancholic mechanical ballet that certainly humbles this “digital poet.”]

força dos trabalhos de Jimpunk —como no caso deste samuraï.remix— reside na potenciação de uma espécie de sabotagem à ideia literal de interactividade que a estes projectos costuma estar associada. A velocidade a que se desenrolam as sucessões de imagens e textos como que boicotam as suas potencialidades interactivas e, aí, reside o seu carácter derisório. O autor faz jus ao seu “nome” tal como em outros tempos o “punk” se ria dos outros sons, aqui é a própria noção constitutiva do projecto que se transforma em objecto de ataque cerrado. O artista ensaia, de forma abertamente experimental, uma forte competência conceptual que lhe permite preconizar um protagonismo “autoral” que, também, se afirma resistente a todas as tentativas de dissolução desta figura. A pretensa democraticidade de um fantasmagórico “autor distribuído” (sic) é aqui notoriamente escamoteada em favor de uma intervenção individualizada. O elevado potencial de visualidade que evidencia permite-lhe, ainda, construir uma ampla teia de imagens que se afirmam como uma espécie nova de narratividade, aquela que se constitui segundo as premissas temporais da velocidade acelerada da sua sucessão, sem quaisquer intuitos informacionais ou comunicativos é, aliás, mesmo do seu boicote que se trata. Aí reside o encanto do projecto e o seu interesse acrescentado na discussão, sempre necessária, dos alargamentos contínuos para a prática artística.

Javascript pop-up windows take on a new role in No War No Game. Once inside the website, it is best to just let go and wait until the javascript windows run their course. An abstract and violent narrative is the result of the obsessive scripting. The excessive amount of windows becomes a metaphor for bombings. Not recommended for epileptics.

The announcement of the result from MCMOGATK

December 26th, 2002
 

— this piece is simple and elegant (philip wood)

— a classic net-art out event (Franck Ancel)

— a simple memorial that would be impossible in any other media hauntingly beautiful. (Joddy Zellen)

— I like the idea of having the towers represented as browser windows, as both the World Trade Center and a Web browser are containers for information, in a way. I can only think of all of those millions of pieces of paper floating in the air.(Brooke A. Knight)

— my favorite. it’s punk. it works. (Antonio Mendoza)

— The piece is very good, but what kills it for me is the part stating “remember” Something more powerful could have been stated instead of the expected cliche… nevertheless, it is very good. I do like the simplicity. (Eduardo Navas)

— simple memorial to 9-11, again displaying the images of wtc, this time represented by pop-up windows. (Ali Miharbi)

— form and content are one (David Crawford)

— Incidentally this was the first one I saw way back in early October. Very creative usage of browser window as art element. Kind of like drawing attention to the canvas of a painting… (Kristen Palana)

— witty use of form(code) (Christian de Lutz)

Crash Course

December 17th, 2002
 

Crash Course, by Jim Punk, is a piece that takes over your computer. Thousands of windows open and close in a manner of seconds, blasting different sounds, songs, and noises over each other for a few moments and then disappearing. Many aspects of this work allude to the potential for war in the Middle East, from camels walking in beat across the desert, to military airplanes landing over and over again. Aside from directly showing things that make us think of the volatile state of the world, Punk creates a virtual space that acts much the way our world has been as of late. Crash Course is chaotic, violent, and almost out of control. The viewer can click their way through the different pages if they don’t close to quickly, but this pretend interaction is only a part of the work in that the piece seems to take you where ever it wants regardless of whether you interact or just sit there mesmerized. Punk uses sound in the same way that visual aspects of the work are presented. The original page that is opened continues to stay open for the duration of the experience, with a repetitive drone, that sort of seems to allude to the world, continuing its revolution, regardless of what humans do. As pages are opened, closed, resized and moved across the screen the sound jolts from one noise to another, existing only for a few seconds before the droning comes to the forefront of our senses again. This depiction of the world is especially pertinent since the medium used to create the work is part of the reason our world is in a state of turmoil. The technology and business necessary to support that technology is one of the things that non-western countries have been rebelling against. The web itself is a form of homogenization. For better or for worse it cannot be denied that the more connection there is the more different cultures become similar. Crash Course does not seem to take a stance in terms of ideology, rather presents through the medium of the net the turmoil and confusion of our current world.

GogolChat, chiacchiere irrazionali.

November 6th, 2002
 

GogolChat una finta chat che attraverso un’apposito set di istruzioni in DHTML seziona i dialoghi e li integra attraverso un motore di ricerca, In questo modo testi e immagini campionate e duplicate ritornano nello spazio di conversazione saturandolo con detriti digitali e altri scampoli di web, che descrivono una sorta di distorto immaginario generale.
Realizzato da Christophe Bruno &e Jimpunk, il software realizza i suoi intenti rivelandosi uno scandaglio casuale del mare di dati accessibili in rete, e un’interfaccia disorientante con la coscienza collettiva.
Dadaismo contemporaneo, pronto a tuffarsi nel caos dei dati visualizzati.

Gogolchat

November 2nd, 2002
 

Bi radi doz›iveli klepetalnis›ko (chat room) konverzacijo s precejs›njim kosom interneta?
Natanc›neje, s tistim kosom, ki ga ‘vidi’ Google? Gogolchat omogoc›a prav to.
Da pa ne bi bilo bizarno-dadaistic›no~ zgolj Gogolchat-ovo besedic›enje,
ki temelji na vas›em vnosu in njega oprogramljeni interpretaciji zadetkov le tega na Googlu,
poskrbiu tudi DHTML, ki vse skupaj vizualizira po svoje. Srec›no.

Hello World

October 31st, 2002
 

Imagine having a chat room conversation with the entire Internet.
Gogolchat offers just such an experience.
Gogol is a software that parses your chat room dialogue through a search engine, spitting back the random results as part of the chat.
At a loss for words? Never mind, Gogol has no qualms about perpetually parsing its own dialogue.
The overall experience is not unlike having an absurd conversation with the collective conscious.
Gogolchat’s dada-esque DHTML manipulations make it as visually disorienting as it is textually bizarre.

net art : Gogol Chat

October 28th, 2002
 

Il progetto nasce dalla multi-user chat ideata da Christophe Bruno, in cui l’autore immagina che viva Gogol, un personaggio inventato. Gogol si presenta come una voce universale, quasi mitologica, forse una personificazione del web stesso. Subito dopo la sua inaugurazione, la Gogol Chat subisce un’intrusione: gli attacchi dell’infiltrato Jimpunk, che la trasfomrma in Golgot Chat…

Questo episodio ha dato il via ad una vera e propria installazione: un dibattito continuativo sul tema della comunicazione. E’ da questo incontro/scontro che il lavoro assume la sua forma attuale: un mix di testo (come si presentava la chat nella sua prima versione), di grafica e di programmazione (il contributo di Jimpunk).

Crash Course

October 11th, 2002
 

jimpunk is known for making net.art that re-sizes browser windows, spawns multiple browser windows, automatically scrolls browser windows, and generally takes Alexei Shulgin’s ‘form art’ to its next, inevitable level. With ‘nowar.nogame,’ jimpunk uses his arsenal of wacky DHTML tricks to mimic the chaos of war. ‘nowar.nogame’ has interactive elements, but whether you click or not, the narrative will pretty much play itself out. Ironic images and eerie audio combine with hectic DOM manipulation to make ‘nowar.nogame’ a textured, intentional statement. – Curt Cloninger
