In conversation with http://www.gracemiceli.com/.
I’m really intrigued and enthused by this notion of your ‘online teen following’ you mentioned in a previous conversation. Can you tell me more about this/them? Are they beginning to have an influence on your output?
My “teen following” definitely began when Tavi http://www.thestylerookie.com/ started posting some of my collages and drawings a...

New Sincerity
Review: Jaakko Pallasvuo New Sincerity curated by B.C. @ Beach London, 8-18th December 2011
I wonder how the artist would have reviewed this show.
Jaakko Pallasvuo’s New Sincerity project presents a beautiful problem. For a start it’s manifestly neither; indeed the term itself has been discoursed for up to thirty years now. What’s more, the open source optimism of the notion has afforded it...

HAZING - in conversation with http://karialtmann.com/
Documentation from Core Samples: Blackmoth.info Body Piercings, 2011
We talked previously about an emphasis on Tumblr in dialogue surrounding your work — would you say there’s a frustration in repeating yourself in conversations such as these? I’m wondering if there is a sense here of art reflecting the logic of the meme, and what sort of...

PARKER ITO / SARAH HARTNETT
In conversation with parkerito.com and, ultimately, Sarah Hartnett
Somehow I feel it’d be interesting to begin by focusing on your third party representation (bios/intros etc) across the internet. To what extent do you see this diffusion of yourself as part of your artistic output/identity? Currently I’m in West Sussex. I go on YouTube and search “whirlpool”. This is the first video that...

Still from Image Objects series, 2011
]]> Issues of materiality, or more precisely the reification of digital entities, seem to run through your work (I’m thinking particularly of Untitled Videos, Monochrome Arc and perhaps even Cairns here). Do you think we learn more about the character of these digital entities through such translation into the...

Your current focus is on your Energy Pangea project. What appeals to me about this is the breadth of content and material of which the project consists, marrying aural, visual, tactile and conceptual elements (‘gesamtkunstwerk’ 2k11?). To what extent is this...

Sam Riviere
In conversation with http://austerities.tumblr.com/
Your output is prodigious - a collection of 81 poems shows a remarkable dedication to a theme, not least one of cuts and austerities. In an earlier interview I discussed the work of Travess Smalley as a ‘performance of producing’, would you say a similar sentiment is relevant here?
A lot of poems I enjoy seem to want to ‘perform their...

A short note.
A short note.
Many artists working within the internet sphere, or engaging with its issues, are apprehensive towards being labelled exclusively as internet or ‘post-internet’ artists. Yet inasmuch as this position implies the existence of an autonomous category of internet art, it is to be discouraged, for to polemicise the realms of virtual and real world art is to make a distinction as flawed...

Outside (of representation)
Thrown into the exhilarating tide of capitalism and dynamic economic growth, post-communist Poland has become ridden with adverts: on the radio and TV, in the countryside and city centre, on roofs, walls, windows. The billboard (or ‘bilbord’) represents the newly found freedom, of expression as much as the market. It is a discursive space where fetishised consumerism can be justified....

The bannerhead to your website is very interesting as it predicates this culture of instantaneity and presentness upon which internet life revolves. So perhaps I might start by reversing the question and asking ‘hey, Justin, what’s up?’

the gif files: part 1
Tracing the rise and rise of online life in the last twenty years, it seems one of the major success stories of the early internet has been the graphics interchange format- the unassuming and unthreatening little gif. Originally popular thanks to its innovative data compression, it is perhaps surprising that the fileform still tends to dominate certain corners of a web that’s expanded...

LATE CAPITALIST PAEDOPHILIA
Bieber, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul.
We had been everywhere. We had really seen nothing. And I catch myself thinking today that our long journey had only defiled with a sinuous trail of slime the lovely, trustful, dreamy, enormous country that by then, in retrospect, was no more to us than a collection of dog-eared maps, ruined tour books, old tires, and her sobs in...

Cunt status; the vagina in art.
‘cock, bollocks, dickhead, wanker,’ are all profanities that have evolved from the penis. This said, what is considered the most vulgar of all curses actually references its feminine counterpart. Like ‘cunt’, the vagina is rarely visible in day-to-die life and culture, considered too explicit for the public sphere. Nevertheless, the body part and its controversial moniker are still what...
