Sometimes Net Art Makes Me Dizzy (2012)

One of the most common movements while surfing the World Wide Web, scrolling, becomes the medium which loads a multitude of abstract, rotating, 3d objects. Net art often offers a respectable amount of disorientation tactiques. Thus, a URL can suddenly become a source of visual noise, and the manipulation techniques that it imposes to the user can be the start of an interesting or a not so interesting visual journey. That's exactly what the user gets once he/she starts scrolling the wheel here. Disorientating objects that are trying to exceed the screen's limits and re-examine a certain kind of relationship between the user (controller), and the virtual space are creating an ongoing archive that will be expanded and consists a sort of a special palimpsest.
