FILMTEXT (2001)
FILMTEXT is a digital narrative created for cross-media
platforms. It is (will be) a museum installation, a
net art site, a conceptual art ebook, an mp3 concept
album, and a series of live performances.
In this iteration of the net art site, commissioned
by Playstation in conjunction with the ICA in London,
Amerika is releasing what he calls "the third part of my new media trilogy
." This initial release of FILMTEXT integrates
Amerika's video art, digital photography, writing, and
narrative direction, with the Flash art of John Vega,
and the sound art of Twine. The attempt here is to investigate
the interrelationship between net art, hypermedia narrative
and interactive cinema. Part Godard lanaguage art film,
part Vertovian Man With A Movie Camera, this version
of the work also comes with an mp3 concept album Amerika
recorded and produced with Twine, and a conceptual art
ebook designed by Jeff Williams. "Introducing,
The Digital Thoughtographer..." |
