LUXUS CONT

The state of art consists of ....the knowledge
 to cross the information highway sideways. 
Heath Bunting (london.uk- heath@cybercafe.org) 
dwelled on its hard shoulder
since the mid 80s and knows how to assemble 
traffic cones into corn circles.
His social interventions in ASCII format 
found 'minimal vr land art'. 
Some might call it 'onthological anarchism' - 
modernity is being looked after,
which is essential if the city as a search
 engine crashes.
Bunting's work consists of a sum of many 
digital and analogous parts. 

Who reads his chalk tags (-
www.irational.org/x) becomes part 
of Bunting's theme park, a trap for art 
history and city council.
Simultaneously, his mails, physical presence,
 net projects, 
teaching, and lectures are a 'must' for any
 press release 
and actually construct of his work. 


Sounds good,... in fact self-evident for the
 way he might be perceived, 
as an interactive search engine with plug ins
 for psychogeographical mapping. 
The interest of the net performer in 
individualised presence 
ends in its construction and starts with its 
privatism: poetical terrorism, 
self irony, virtual sexpol. Bunting,
 participated in the graffiti scene, 
later opened a BBS-based Cybercafe in 1993; 
now he gives his first public talk in Berlin, 
including: 'pleasur project', 'pirate radio in
 the UK', 
'how to make a love-homepage', 'travelling
 without ... 
and so on ... (-www.cybercafe.org/)
