SMS 'Stop Motion Studies'

- David Crawford -

“Crawford’s pieces combine the strange homogeneity of public spaces pictured by Andreas Gursky, the complex cinematic ambiguity of Jeff Wall’s photos, and even the lovely light and titillating urban voyeurism of the Impressionists.”
—Bert Stabler, Chicago Reader



Stop Motion Studies - Tokyo, 2004

- Crawford seems to have taken a selection of photo stills (stop frames) and strung them together to create a moving image. A lot of his images were taken on trains and subway tubes, this gives Crawford both a static and moving object in each photo.this means in every shot the people don’t move that much but as the train is moving the background changes constantly.

The different ways links and linked images are used on the net to create Net.Art.

There are many different ways links and linked images are used on the net to create Net.Art.

These are some of the different ways to use them –
As Background -
http://art.teleportacia.org/

In this site the artist has used an images with in the background for the site. They have taken one image of trees and wallpapered it all over the site.

As you enter this site you are presented with a screen of trees and onto of them is this ‘crater’ or hole in the ground, the trees still visible underneath. When you click on this ‘crater’ you are teleported across the page to the sites partial full of both static and moving links.

How web pages and virtual space changes the way art can be made and viewed.

Makes art interactive

Makes it accessible to everyone all at the same time. Areas of accessibility are – homes/schools/offices/etc.

By creating Net.Art (art using the internet/software as the media) artists are opening their work up to be downloaded and used/adapted by anyone and everyone. A Net.Artist needs to be open to the possibility of their work being used by others. The work is put out their for everyone to view and use if they want.

Art being created on the net on WebPages and ‘virtual spaces’ does open itself up to computer programmers and not just artists. As the internet started as a military resource in America a lot of the first net.artists were programmers using the net as a means of visual protest against the government.

A Definition of Net.Art -

net.art is a group of artists who worked in Internet art from 1994. The members are usually referenced as Vuk Ćosić, Jodi.org, Alexei Shulgin, Olia Lialina, Heath Bunting. This group was united as a parody of avantgarde movements by writers such as Tilman Baumgärtel, Josephine Bosma, Hand Dieter Huber and Pit Schultz but their individual works have little in common.

net.art is also used as a synonym for net art or Internet art and covers a much wider range of artistic practices. In this wider definition, net.art means art that uses the Internet as its medium and that cannot be experienced in any other way. Often net.art has the Internet as (part of) its subject matter but this is certainly not required.
