A Sto­ry by the ar­gen­tin­ian wri­ter Jor­ge Luis Bor­ges Fic­cion­es. (part one: The Gar­den of For­king Paths, The Li­bra­ry of Ba­bel) des­cribes the u­ni­verse as a Li­bra­ry, ‘com­posed of an in­de­fi­nite, per­haps in­fi­nite num­ber of hexa­gon­al gal­ler­ies’, interconnected hexagons in which all pos­sible and im­pos­sible books are stored. Library of Babel a stack of books ‘In the ves­ti­bule there is a mir­ror, which faith­ful­ly dup­li­cates ap­pear­ances.’

Our re­search us­es this im­age as a pre­mise to in­ves­ti­gate the con­tem­po­ra­ry an old-school button that reads 'comment' net and con­tent pro­duc­tion. All that is pos­sible will hap­pen. The fe­ver­ish li­bra­ry ever ex­pands. a graph on a bubble, three times, getting bigger from left to right

Mech­an­isms of so­cial me­dia plat­forms, agg­re­ga­tors and mes­sage boards are de­signed around and filled with ‘[…] the glimpse of some­thing.’ (Willem de Kooning, Con­tent is a Glimpse). The Glimp­ses mul­ti­ply end­less­ly, without get­ting deep­er, and are all col­lec­ted by the ‘fe­ver­ish’ Li­bra­ry. galactic nebula ‘Die Wu­cher­ung des Glei­chen ist nicht kar­zi­no­ma­tös, son­dern ko­ma­tös. Sie stößt auf kei­ne im­muno­lo­gi­sche Ab­wehr. Man glotzt bis zur Be­wusst­los­ig­keit.’ Byung-Chul Han, Die Aus­trei­bung des An­der­en, Ge­sell­schaft und Kom­mu­ni­ka­tion heu­te. S. Fischer, 2016.

But we al­so in­tro­duce the idea of ‘Fe­ver’ a thermometer as a po­si­tive re­ac­tion to the lul­ling drag of the web—an im­mun­o­lo­gi­cal a white blood cell with a face re­spon­se of the user’s self to the web’s most en­demic as­pects.

These pro­jects deal with con­se­quen­ces of the net’s in­va­sion of our pri­va­cy, at­ten­tion and be­ha­vior and/or stra­te­gies to pre­vent themprojection of the gravitational field of a black hole—as well as the aes­the­tics we use to frame our un­der­stan­ding of the net’s struc­ture. network of lines
