A not = A or for Devatas who keep on Dancing
Aphorisms criticising the mass media tumble over flickering white noise with the hypothesis that the true revolution only happens when the image denies itself. Whether this data art denies itself, is difficult to say. It is, in any case, proof of the broad commitment to the foundations of the media, a process in which streams of data that shape our culture find their way into our sensual and aesthetic consciousness.
