Net art foundation Rhizome announced on Wednesday that it is accepting proposals for the second annual edition of its microgrants program. Five artists will be selected to receive $500 each to make browser-based art. “The $500 is kind of meant to buy domain names, get you a few days off work, actually have the time […]

On Sunday August 10th, art non-profit Rhizome is hosting “the city’s first Trailblazers web surfing competition” at Rockaway Beach Surf Club where eight of “New York’s web surfers will find out who can surf best!” The rules are simple: competitors have to complete a trail by going from one URL, the start, to another URL, the […]

He’ll present his findings in Computers on Law & Order, a Rhizome-funded talk at the Museum of the […]
Nicolas Sassoon’s Waterfall 6 is in the window of Phillips (starting bid: $800) and it’s not as disorienting as I thought it would be. I remember when I would stare into its pulsating glowing waves online and later, fiddling Rafaël Rozendaal’s responsive gradient websites until happy.
