How Random – Is Random
‘How Random – Is Random’ is a screensaver installation designed for two computer screens. A large number of eastern proverbs, split in half, are randomly recombined to form new proverbs. In this case randomness often proves to be loaded with unexpected humor…
‘How Random – Is Random’ was created as part of a WILLIE exhibition in KCO, Zwolle. There are two fixed computer screens in the exhibition space of KCO, that have to stay in place and in use. I decided to use them for my own purposes and make these screens part of the exhibition.
Other participating WILLIE artists are: Babet Olde Weghuis, Bart Folmer, Elio Debets, Maaike Folmer, Margot Olde Loohuis and Patrick Mangnus. The exhibition was opened with a Jool Hul performance.
System requirements: two computerscreens positioned next to eachother and random image screensaver software (standard on Windows XP and Mac OSX). ‘How Random – Is Random’ is available on cd-r for 5 euro.
