[ AOS ] Art is Open Source reinventing the world using ubiquitous technologies

Yes We Can

This information is about the following AOS projects: Other Projects

We gave out a presentation at the conference organized by the University of Rome “La Sapienza” and Co.Pi.Da.

We presented some alternative business models based on a freepress publication created for the Angel_F and biodoll projects, and the scenario for a research laboratory which we are trying to fund: reverse engineering consumer electronics, both conceptually and physically, to research on freedom and on the contemporary, digital, human being.

  1. It’s coinsidence that on year 2001 I made an indie comic titled: Biodoll Project….for a comic competition…weird…

    well it would be actually nice to see it!
    When i joined in the performance, the Biodoll was a performative art project that was really interesting: performances and actions in galleries, in the streets and squatting public spaces all over italy.
    I bet the original author would have loved to partner with you in associating the two biodolls
    but it’s never too late… do you have any material online? I only saw an image in your deviant art profile. do youhave any more?

  3. my material online so far is on deviantart, the new material in on progress, but few years ago, I did a design magazine cover competition, and I think you can search on my gallery…

    well it’s actually quite nice!
    even if the aesthetics are totally different from the ones of the italian Biodoll. Franca Formenti’s Biodoll is a cloned prostitute. She lives on the web and transforms digital interactions into sexual energies.
    She has been the subject of a wonderful research on identities, sexualities and public/private spaces as they are redefined in the digital, connected era.
    I’ll show her the concepts, though, she might well be interested in having some artwork done
    cheers!

Art is Open Source

AOS, Art is Open Source, is the diary of the activities of xDxD.vs.xDxD / Salvatore Iaconesi and penelope.di.pixel / Oriana Persico.
We use technology, communication, performance, art and design to instantiate emotional actions and processes that are able to expose the dynamics of our contemporary world.
We do this in academic, artistic, business and activist domains and, actually, we are focused on moving fluidly among each of these spaces.
