“At the end of the world there will only be liquid advertisement and gaseous desire. Sublimated from our bodies, our untethered senses will endlessly ride escalators through pristine artificial environments, more and less than human, drugged-up and drugged down, catalysed, consuming and consumed by a relentlessly rich economy of sensory information, valued by the pixel. The Virtual Plaza welcomes you, and you will welcome it too.”
In this workshop we will reimagine net aesthetics and the ‘virtual plaza’ through collective mixtaping practices and audiovisual worldbuilding. Here, we will layer found sounds, looping visuals, and fragmented digital ephemera to construct a new space for intentional listening & distribution.
A copy of your finished work will be provided by us via cd. We will be showcasing your work at the Open Secret screening the following day. Please bring your own laptop to use within the workshop. Additional requirements include access to audio and video editing software of your choice. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

Please include your name and phone number in the sign up.

Honeygal is a practicing multimedia artist and researcher who uses video and web-based interventions to reconfigure power relations and the mythologies of online life. She is a member of Open Secret and splits her time between art, politics, and science to produce workshops that play with the contemporary net.
antonio dimovski is a multimedia artist and writer, based in detroit. His practice considers how the relationships between images, software/hardware, and platform circulation can be deconstructed in order to reimagine internet output. His work has exhibited internationally, including in New York City, London, Berlin, and Guangzhou.
Open Secret is a curatorial internet cinema programme organised autonomously by an ever growing collective of artists and internet friends. It is manifesto-less, letting the work speak for itself—and no two screenings are alike.
