IN CHAT - The artist gives up exclusive control of the work of art to give space to a collective art process in which the completion of the work comes at the moment in which the spectator and other participants interact with it. It is not important what is communicated, rather that there is communication. IN-chat, created and realized by DIGART/Marcello Mazzella in collaboration with INnet Project promoters, is inserted in a scenario of installation art, in which the chat itself represents the work of art that one interacts with. IN-chat interviews researchers, artists, students of new media, critics, philosophers and the casual passerby and asks them to give some sense to what has become a common social practice and therefore perpetual peer-to-peer connecting in the universe of the web. A software created especially for this work allows users to videochat and dialogue in real time at http://www.costellazioni.info
