- 12. From Art on Networks to Art on Platforms by Olga Goriunova, Alexei Shulgin What is a platform? [S]omething in between a content management system, online web site, library, and a club ... A platform is a website organized in a special way: as a relatively simple database with artefacts, or a more complex portal built around the database. -Runme.org -Udaff.com (self-identified counter-cultural writing) -Micromusic.net The 1990s were dominated by art on networks and celebration of communication via internet, 2000-s are marked by the development of platform-based art trends and cultural currents. -“From Art on Networks to Art on Platforms” by Olga Goriunova, Alexei Shulgin
- 13. Art on platforms •fostering creativity, detecting, discovering, defining, shaping the field, contributing to its development, contributing to the materialization of a particular artistic trend •offline meetings in bars or at cultural events (micromusic: “microeventz”) •often no grants as quick responses to artistic trends are needed and grants cycles are slow. Usually platforms are driven by enthusiasts who work for free. •udaff.com changed language and created a new literature genre (literature for men) The 1990s were dominated by art on networks and celebration of communication via internet, 2000-s are marked by the development of platform-based art trends and cultural currents. -“From Art on Networks to Art on Platforms” by Olga Goriunova, Alexei Shulgin

- 40. Cultural Context Providers Currently, there is much advocacy for cultural practices that demand a particular involvement on the part of the audience, creating situations in which art projects are co-produced. People interact with networked computer systems and artifacts evolve out of experimental relationships between several people.

- 43. ca se stu Less enlightened museums curators frame new media art in modernist terms that are dy based on familiar rules for institutional inclusion or exclusion. On which aesthetic criteria should institutions base their decisions in the face of constantly changing forms of new media art works? The media art curator is not exclusively the ‘middle person’ between artists and museums or galleries anymore. Curators do not merely organize exhibitions and edit, filter and arrange museum collections. Now, her practice includes facilitating events, screenings, temporary discursive situations, writing/publishing, symposia, conferences, talks, research, the creation of open archives, and mailing lists. Curators become meta-artists. They set up contexts for artists who provide contexts. The model of the curated website has become a useful recognition mechanism. In media art many cultural context providers function in various registers including that of the curator. Are the contributors exploited?

- 48. Delocator.net is an online database project that creates a comparison between the amounts of local independently owned cafes and Starbucks retail stores within a specific zip code. By comparison of numeric quantity and site-specific detail, the user will see evidence of unchecked aggression and power that corporate businesses have in our communities. The site is also a free online space for independent cafe goers and owners to promote their cafes by uploading local cafe information to the Delocator.net database. The creation of other delocated database-driven web sites is encouraged. On the Delocator web site, users are able to download the code necessary to establish a new database, prompting more sites and databases that may focus on other specific retail stores. Delocator.net was launched with the intention of becoming a web-meme, sprouting many future de-located corporate stores. This project is a collaboration between the collective Finishing School and programmer Vasna Sdoeung. http://www.rhizome.org/object.php?o=33376&m=1017283

- 62. http://mechanicalolympics.org/ The Mechanical Olympics is a YouTube video competition of Olympic performances made by the elastic workforce on Amazon.com’s Mechanical Turk website. Every viewer gets a chance to vote on the gold medalists. Winners receive a bonus payment. Three videos were commissioned for each event and event polls change daily on this interactive alternative to the Olympic Games. The rules are simple: workers have to wear the Mechanical Olympic signage, perform for the country and event described in the HIT (Human Intelligence Task) they accept, and create a 30 - 60 second video of their performance. Any abstraction on the idea of the event is encouraged. They post the URL to their video, and in return, they are paid from $1 - $3 usd. This project aims to offer the human intelligence task (HIT) workers a creative and physical alternative to their typical HITs. The videos posted on the blog create an Olympic event for the masses, where every viewer has the opportunity to vote on the medalists. Participants and viewers are reminded that the amateur can often be just as engaging and entertaining as the professional.

We began the journey in the New York City area and worked our way across the country, ending the year in Hawaii. Today the archive consists of 365 visualizations of some of the worst toxic sites in the U.S., roughly a quarter of the total number on the Superfund's National Priorities List (NPL). Along the way, we wrote an email update with highlights and conducted video interviews.

These are the reviews of Kevin Killian who is a San Francisco-based poet, novelist, critic, and playwright. His texts are not really reviews. They are autobiographical pieces of fiction. Killian uses Amazon.com as a platform for his writing practice- a place with an immediate broad readership.
- 74. Killian's review of a 14K ruby necklace quot;As an American boy growing up in France, I became mesmerized by an enchanting painting of an ancestor that hung never very far from the hearth. The painting, smudged by smoke and damaged by Vichy occupation of the chateau, showed a very thin and angular woman, her face like something reflected in the bowl of a spoon, festooned in bright stones that gleamed out still bright after the passage of many decades. quot;Who is this woman,quot; I used to wonder out loud, until one evening, as my grandmother passed through the room looking for our vanished cat, quot;Gateau,quot; I noticed that she wore the same diamond and ruby necklace as the ancestor in the old damaged painting. I persuaded my grandmother to sit down and forget about her eternal hunt for a cat who had died long before I was born, when she was still a young woman not even married to my grandpapa yet, and to tell me about the necklace she wore. She took my little hands in hers and, in a low, breathy whisper, told me how she had stumbled across these precious stones in a valise once. Amazon's 14K Ruby and Diamond quot;Dynastyquot; necklace looks like a lot like my family jewels; the resemblance is shocking enough to have made me drop my cocoa while leafing through the jewel pages this morning in an attempt to bring back, madeleine-style, the vanished days of yesteryear.quot;
