Des détournements d’artistes, une expo à San Francisco,
c’est le grand retour des premières images animées apparues sur le web.

AVANT EUX, LE WEB ÉTAIT FIGÉ. Puis les GIF sont arrivés, clinquants, gigotants, criards, pour mettre un peu de couleur et de mouvement dans les pages. «Au milieu des années 90, poster une animation en GIF [Graphic Interchange Format Files] sur son site était un acte de bravoure, une manière d’épater la galerie à une époque où les pages étaient statiques, raconte Marisa Olson, 28 ans, commissaire à Rhizome.org,….

“Surge is an online exhibition of web-based projects selected from an open call for submissions. Surge includes works by artists 31 Down, Abe Linkoln and Marisa Olson, Angel Nevarez and Alex Rivera, NYSAE (New York Society for Acoustic Ecology), Jimpunk, and Leslie Sharpe. The featured projects employ new media tools to both conceptually and formally address different possibilities for transmission art online. Some consider the nature of signals as they move through the ether; others appropriate forms of wireless transmission, such as the military’s aerial ‘drone’ or the programming language AsCii, to propose new kinds of digital communication. Surge is co-presented by free103point9 and Rhizome.”

L’autore dell’opera di net art di cui parleremo in questo articolo ha costruito e va costruendo intorno a sé un alone di mistero, sia grazie alla popolarità di cui sta godendo nell’ambiente della net art negli ultimi tempi ma soprattutto perchè non compare in pubblico e non dice nulla della propria origine (anche se il dominio del suo sito web pare sia registrato in Francia). Di certo sappiamo solo il suo nome (o dovremmo forse dire “nickname”) d’arte: Jimpunk. Volevamo intervistarlo, ma non trova interessante parlare di se stesso. Preferisce che gli altri dicano cosa pensano dei suoi lavori. E Pulp.href è l’ultimo di una lunga serie, nella quale trova posto anche una collaborazione per 56KTV Bastard Channel, progetto di cui ci siamo occupati nel mese di dicembre 2005. Vincitore del One second video festival, Jimpunk fa videoart con frammenti di “seconda mano”. Una vera tv spazzatura, che appartiene anch’essa a quella filosofia che attinge dall’enorme…

Curated by Marisa Olson

The GIF Show, an exhibition opening May 3rd, at San Francisco’s Rx Gallery, takes the pulse of what some net surfers call ‘GIF Luv,’ a recent frenzy of file-sharing and creative muscle-flexing associated with GIFs (Graphic Interchange Format files). Curated by Marisa Olson in a West Coast Rhizome collaboration with Rx, the show presents GIFs and GIF-based videos, prints, readymades, and sculptures by a range of artists, including Cory Arcangel, Peter Baldes, Michael Bell-Smith, Jimpunk, Olia Lialina, Abe Linkoln, Guthrie Lonergan, Lovid, Tom Moody, Paper Rad, Paul Slocum, and Matt Smear (aka 893/umeancompetitor). GIFs have a rich cultural life on the internet and each bears specific stylistic markers. From Myspace graphics to advertising images to porn banners, and beyond, GIFs overcome resolution and bandwidth challenges in their pervasive population of the net. Animated GIFs, in particular, have evolved from a largely cinematic, cell-based form of art practice, and have more recently been incorporated in music videos and employed as stimulating narrative devices on blogs. From the flashy to the minimal, the sonic to the silent, the artists in The GIF Show demonstrate the diversity of forms to be found in GIFs, and many of them comment on the broader social life of these image files. The opening is sure to be just as lively, with music by Eats Tapes and visuals by Nate Boyce. Spread the luv! – Rhizome.org

free103point9 and Rhizome are pleased to present Surge Live at Participant, Inc. A reception to celebrate Surge an online exhibition exploring the aesthetics of wireless transmission.

Questo artista francese è solito realizzare animazioni multiwindow costituite da semplici loop come le .gif animate. Jimpunk ora ha realizzato un nuovo lavoro dove mette assieme anni di esperienza nella costruzione di ‘macchine interattive’ in rete per il mixaggio di video e anni di definizione di un maturo stile estetico, costituito dall’utilizzo di una grana frammentata e montaggio non lineare.

Con il suo ultimo lavoro Pulp.href, ha realizzato una sorta di sala software di mixaggio audiovideo, dove tutti i campioni sono chiaramenti esposti sullo schermo secondo una semplice matrice che lega ogni pulsante a un frammento audiovisuale tratto da classici del nostro immaginario visuale, come film del cinema, cartoni animati, concerti rock, tutto quanto presentato su uno schermo diviso in sei parti, un collage post-moderno a bassa definizione.

Questo tipo di ricerca si inserisce in una ambito di ricerca tra in più interessanti della rete, il webcinema, dove l’estetica dei videoclip incontra le possibilità interattive di flash o le modalità di montaggio frammentato dei javascript. Vi è un certo piacere nell’esplorare questo tipo di produzioni sperimentali, vi sono suggestioni di quello che in un prossimo futuro basato sulla condivisione e sull’interattività potrebbe essere il nostro rapporto con l’immagine in movimento e il suono.

French artist Jimpunk makes anarchic collages out of animated GIFs, exploding pop-up windows, ASCII drawings, and other internet conventions. Most of his projects require some viewer input to set a manic, web-based bricolage in motion, but a recent project, titled ‘Pulp,’ goes a step further, allowing users to make custom mixes of grainy video clips. A menu of cryptically-labeled shots fills the bottom of a browser window, and when a viewer clicks one, a video loop plays in one of six tiled frames that form a mosaic across the top of the window. Some of the clips are abstracted from film and television while featuring stylized interference. Others are just fuzz and static with high-pitched tones ringing underneath. Playing two or three together yields hypnotic patterns of sound and video; opening six at once creates a cacophony. But maybe that’s how this type of participatory art is completed: the viewer finally mixes up a combination of imagery and sound that is so blissfully overestimating, they are forced to either click away or stare at it indefinitely. – Bill Hanley
