Project MetaMap vers. 0.1
MetaMap is best understood as a work-in-progress. Produced by an international network of collaborating artists working together exclusively across the internet. The artwork, as it was represented in the «stimulus/response» exhibition in Vienna (Oct. 2007), the work challenged this mode of long-distance collaboration in an application of [zhao]project research collaborative in networked arts research. Temporal and spatial distance was transformed by harmonized genio/cultural topography, composed through the documentation of real-life short trips made by the participating Artists. The resultant space drew those visited places into a singular fabricated location through which viewers were invited to take a journey through the landscape of the collaborating people.
