Interviewandnotes

METHOD (interviews, notes, text, imagenotes, text on inf. coll.) (use text online id and inf coll, visual notes, interviews point to elaborate and explain, zizek ideology subjectivity, visual notes)

1) TEXT

a process of mixing of sources (this process of a(user)- working sometimes as a librarian- seraching-collecting storing evaluation infofrmation- and curator/artist remix/renarrate)) and creating abstract representation scenes with user generated models from the warehouse library, with a variety of formats and published on different online platforms. the outcomes vary from image sequences to videos with sound and collages.

by accessing user generated 3d models available in the warehouse library of sketchup. Searching for items and creating 3d scenes from their assemblance. Exporting from sketchup as an image sequence or video, often as video sound is added, more likely computer generated voice that speaks out text of philosophers like Baudrillard, artists like Lialina,etc, and fragments of own or remixed sound works. The process continues after the final export and the possible sound/voice in the case of a video, to the publishing of the work in different platforms. A series of scenes was published in facebook as image sequence jpegs , in around 5 albumbs each containing 1000 pics (the maximum) available. Uploading the same material in tumblr lets say would be totally different as the structure differs. Other scenes have been uploaded in youtube as videos. An animation was created for the sound work of another artist, Ronen shai. In general the outcome can vary but is a form of narrative abstract 3d representation.

i m exploring how identity construction online relates to information collecting. focusing in the aspects of online space-(platforms, 3d , browser) language(code, tagging, categories)-communication (community contakt, make use of sources, redistribute ). By using ugc and remixing it im not refering direktly to the community of sketchup users but by publishing it in another platform i want to emphasize on the multilayered corporate structures online and how they affect our subjectivities. The process causes more a misuse of the platform of sketchup.(and content?) In this case the online space is subjective. The communication of the community is beeing done with written language, codes which can be represented with an iceberg.Theres much more under the surface of their structure.

2) INTERVIEW

TRANSCRIPT STEVE INT N. from background interested in information human interaction in late inf.age.

research around identiy and self through the lense of this extended notion of info now

S is it how id is constructed in the online space?

N this process of a(user)- working sometimes as a librarian- seraching-collecting storing evaluation infofrmation-

S u described your interest and methods but nowdescribe 3 products

N experimenting on wegl (starf from online tools, code as footage, again libraraian process and then publishing after remix.curation), 3d, built on code,

S THE CONTENT?

N for me is like an iceberg is al about language and text, over the surface outcome, but under the surface a structure, content is motion graphiks in the browser, the outcome is not really an outcome

S tell me now about your IA project

N research stage, problem with interface, search filtered via categorisation-media types,

S oversimplified?

N also problematik user of keywords

S its a really extreme example of a problem

N and of an archive

S how di this come to be?

N huge collection and diverse traditional library/archive problem extended Propose -..- visual/alt interface,

S break into media types create another interface?navig?, u gave an explanation of the issues that are important to you and key one is the production of the self thourh these codes

MIHAIL NIKOS INTERVIEW

Explain what warehouse is

elaborate more process in what +++

make clear all is user created

what does the viewerdo?

add that then goes to the specification of each platform
