Participate in art by making art from it.
Gather on the surface of the work.
Absorb a room digitally.
Trust yr pores.

like a stuck ant
decelerate into parable

letter by letter erase language
precede the fiction of meaning
faceless, structureless
fertile ground

Briant is the world's only net-art residency
without any internet.
After long hours on hold at customer support,
this bug becomes a (cherished) feature.

Formal structural collaborative ideological unity.
Infrared cues guide flocks
through network affinities.
Flow border control.

this (15 second) video
is less exciting than its (provocative) title suggests
but just imagine
replacing your torso
with your legs
then replace your genitals
with the head of a dead cow
& some excitement might (briefly) return

in the beauty
at the bottom
of my soul
i love you
