10 Art Events to See in New York and Beyond This Week
5. Discussions, “First Look: Hypertext Characters” at the New Museum
Part of Rhizome’s First Look: New Art Online series, “First Look: Hypertext Characters” presents three works built using the nonlinear characters. For instance, Martine Neddam’s Mouchette.org serves as a colorful, Hypertext-rich website of a fictional 13-year-old (who happens to be obsessed with director Robert Bresson).
Mendi and Kieth Obadike’s The Pink of Stealth explores race, language, gender, and culture through an interactive website and DVD; while the work PSYCHO NYMPH EXILE by Porpentine Charity Heartscape, Neotenomie, and Sloane, uses Hypertext to reimagine PTSD as a physical substance. Following the presentation, the artists will take part in a panel discussion.
