Revelation 2.0

Online Art Project
Commissioned by Computer Fine Arts
2003

 

Revelation 2.0 is a net art project that treats the CNN web site as a found object. It uses custom software to create a parallel version of the CNN site. Stripped of text and graphics, the CNN site is reduced to geometrical compositions of color fields and photographic images.

 

Revelation 2.0 is the second iteration of the Revelation project. The first iteration, Revelation 1.0, applies a similar logic to the Amnesty International web site.

 

Here is an example of Revelation 2.0 in action:
