Issue 3: WIRED RUINS: DIGITAL TERROR AND ETHNIC PARANOIA
Edited by Arthur and Marilouise Kroker & Timothy Murray.
Published by the Cornell University Library Electronic Publishing
Program.
The Coeditors of CTHEORY Multimedia seek finished projects of
electronic art ready to be mounted on-line and archived in CTHEORY
Multimedia. "Wired Ruins" reflects on the digital and viral networks
of ethnic identities that now so urgently emit faint signals for
recognition among the overlapping diffusions of cultural angst and
digital terror. A vibrantly pulsating network resisting the
repression of the new age of censorship, "Wired Ruins" is a
simulacrum of cross-cultural infection and cross-border fluidity.
Reacting to the complex horrors of terrorism while resisting the
surveillance regimes of the disciplinary state, its practitioners
work passionately to reposition the code in counter-response to the
aggressive parasites of religious fanaticism and ethnic paranoia.
"Wired Ruins" will haunt the future as the skeletal archive of the
many unrecorded artistic responses to digital terror and ethnic
paranoia.
Please send a description of your project, including conceptual
abstract, technical format, and preview URL if available, to the
