info


Coming from Gamma’s series of animated pixel line-drawings, Transmeet is an animated gif that represents a meeting point. The work points to the mechanism of the Internet that allows users to connect with each other: the transmission of data. As we transmit our quantified selves across the fibre optic networks that scaffold the modern world, we meet and mingle somewhere in cyberspace or the cloud. In this way, sending, or giving oneself, is equivalent to being together.
