Ursula Endlicher’s Morex Optimo Web site performance
Artist Ursula Endlicher makes a wide variety of some of the most jaw-droppingly odd and hilarious performance based video out there. One of her projects has been to make “Web Site Portrait” performances. As she says:
| Quote: |
| Website Portrait Performances (WPPs) consist of graphical visualizations of the hyper-links of a particular website which illustrate the link structure two levels down into it. How the website is written in HTML will define how the links are displayed in the graphic. The grammar of one medium (HTML) is applied to another (graphic).Furthermore these visualizations are read as so-called “dance notations”. Each link is performed depending on how the individual node is defined in the graphic. If a link shows seventy sub-links (HTML) for example, the performance (”dance”) will consist of seventy movements. Finally, each link selected by the user also simultaneously displays the real-time URL of the according page of the specific website on a secondary monitor (installation) or window (web). |
She has made a beautiful Web Site Portrait Performance based on the Morex Optimo Web site. Enjoy!
Thanks, Ursula!
