Description

This rich collection of writings by pioneering digital artist Mark Amerika mixes (and remixes) personal memoir; net art theory; fictional narrative; satirical reportage; scholarly history; and network-infused language art. META/DATA is a playful; improvisatory; multitrack "digital sampling" of Amerikas writing from 1993 to 2005 that tells the early history of a net art world "gone wild" while simultaneously constructing a parallel poetics of net art that complements Amerikas own artistic practice.Unlike other new media artists who may create art to justify their theories; Amerika documents the emergence of new media art forms while he creates them. Presenting a multifaceted view of the digital art scene on subjects ranging from interactive storytelling to net art; live VJing; online curating; and Web publishing; Amerika gives us "Spontaneous Theories;" "Distributed Fictions" (including his groundbreaking GRAMMATRON; the helpful "Insiders Guide to Avant-Garde Capitalism;" and others); the more scholarly "Academic Remixes;" "Net Dialogues" (peer-to-peer theoretical explorations with other artists and writers); and the digital salvos of "Amerika Online" (among them; "Surf-Sample-Manipulate: Playgiarism on the Net;" "The Private Life of a Network Publisher;" and satirical thoughts on "Writing As Hactivism"). META/DATA also features a section of full-color images; including some of Amerikas most well-known and influential works.Provocative; digressive; nomadic; and fun to read; Amerikas texts call to mind the cadences of Gertrude Stein; the Beats; cyberpunk fiction; and even The Daily Show more than they do the usual new media theorizing. META/DATA maps the world of net culture with Amerika as guide and resident artist.
