THE LINKS

Interactive Google Docs installation, laptop, projection, desk, chair, latex mask, wall clock, 70”x60”x70”

The Links is a shared press release document made publicly available through Google Docs. The Links conveys this necessity, reflecting the current collaborative and ephemeral communications, real-time distributions, and the collective authorship operative of the corporate office.

A link to this document was publicly shared before the opening and was also projected on the wall in the show as part of an office desktop setting including desk, laptop, and an 8 hour clock. At some point, all the links in the press release may become decayed. In order to be comfortable with new communication tools like Google Docs, each of us needs to learn to let go of the reins of authorial power.
