gwei

google will eat itself. According to Übermorgen, a group of artists in Vienna. They were founded in 1999 and mainly produce provocative techno-critical art work especially related to privacy and security. We cross conceptual art with experimental research, says founder Hans Bernhard, and the end products are socio-technological art pieces. Not approaching their work with the question what art, technology or research should be, Übermorgen practises "radical self-experiments". Gwei is a paradoxon, and a time-critical response on information monopoly and global advertisement systems. I am amazed by the variety of different ideas conveyed through all sorts of media. Art that doesn't claim to be, but much more is. Interaction that propels critical thought about the now and how the now influences not just tomorrow but Übermorgen. And a nice interview with them on we-make-money-not-art.
