CARLO ZANNI ANALYZES HIS WORK THROUGH A LECTURE IN ES BALUARD
Listen to the lecture that the artist Carlo Zanni (La Spezia, Italy, 1975) delivered on February 22, 2011 in Es Baluard, among the "Digital Encounters" activities on the exhibition "Extimacy".
Carlo Zanni's practice involves the use of live Internet data feedback to create time based social consciousness experiences in the form of games, photos, films and installations investigating topical issues of our life. This data can be eBay.com stock market charts as in "eBay Landscape” 2004, or a set of images gathered from top daily news as in "Average Shoveler” 2005 (Rhizome.org commission winner), or World Bank Indicators and other political data for the “The Fifth Day”, 2009. This use of live data, screening our society, enables the viewer become part of the piece even if he or she doesn't physically interact with it.
