[Nettime-bold] DIAN Announcement for March |
March:
DIAN - Digital Interactive Artists'
Network -
Our focus for the month of March
is ED BURTON. We proudly present his work:
"Sodaplay"
http://dian-network.com/navigation.html
Sodaplay describes itself as the home of creative play; it’s all about the fun that comes from playing with creativity. The first sodaplay toy, sodaconstructor, is an engaging online construction kit that gives visitors the ability to build interactive creations from a sparse framework of limbs and muscles. By altering physical properties like gravity, friction and speed, curiously anthropomorphic models can be made to walk, climb, wriggle, jiggle or alternatively collapse into a writhing heap.
Sodaconstructor exploded across
the internet in a wave of spontaneous e-mail communication and web postings
in the summer of 2000 creating a massive growth of unusually dedicated
users in a phenomenon known as viral marketing. Since then a large and
active worldwide community of sodaplayers have been creating their own
sodaconstructions which now populate the sodazoo with a bourgeoning menagerie
of models that are stranger and more diverse than soda ever imagined possible.
DIAN - Digital Interactive Artists' Network - is a network for artists who are seriously involved in using Internet technology in the domain of contemporary art.
We are deeply interested in artists
working in this field. Artists working with the web, the net and related
domains, please submit your work here:
