1.Overview Numbed by new technologies like Narcissus in the Greek myth, we tend to forget that it is the age of consciousness of the unconscious. Whether the numbness is a psychological self-protection or it is the same old hypnosis by the capitalist consumerism, the answer lies in the task of conscious awareness of the changes in our subliminal life, private and social, caused by the new technologies that constantly reshape our socio-political landscapes. This project presents an alternative way of using wireless technology to express individual opinions toward the public. Using cell phones and other handheld devices that are meant to enhance "private" communications, participants instead publicize their opinions on a censor- free message board installed in a "public" space. This conversion of a "private-to-private" communication to a "private-to-public" and its unexpected exposure to a physical space, enable an anarchic messaging, a noise, that somehow needs to be justified in the expanding public arena of the electronic age. Guerrilloffiti draws messages in a graffiti-like way. With its metaphorical and aesthetic reference to the traditional urban graffiti, it solicits people to leave marks on the surface. Using a variety of available display devices from large projections to LED billboards to small flat panel monitors, the board is installed in a specific site and locates a target for users to send their messages to. Like graffiti-guerillas situated in an urban environment, participants then 'bomb' on the target from virtually anywhere and at anytime through their small private gadgets. There is no communication without memories. Being a communication outlet, Guerrilloffiti also works as a memorial apparatus, an archive, putting the messages in reserve. Whenever there is no activity from users, stored messages are replayed at heartbeat resembling intervals. With its rhythmical, ephemeral and almost phonic way of drawing, Guerrilloffiti attempts to construct a history of what people have expressed. The project provides a unique chance to see how the authorities will react to the situation and how differently they would react from a similar situation in the electronic public domain. As controversial as it might turn out, this happening, particularly with relation to the physicality of where it happens, will provide another perspective to the current discourses on the expanding public domain and its political possibilities and limits. | 01 | 02 | 03 | 04 | 05 | 06 | 07 | 08 | 09 | 10 | 11 | 12 | Appendix | A1 | A2 | A3 | A4 | A5 | A6 | B0 |
