This work of art is a movie with the quality of major motion picture that is only shown in the web. I couldn’t watch it personally because it seems a Login ID and Password are needed to view the project. However, the movie is described in the review at Furtherfiled.org. A couple of man and woman are in the same bed. A man is covered with stains on his body is scared for his stains getting bigger. A woman is trying to cheer him up and goes to sleep.
This movie can only be shown on the web because of the viewers’ participations. They won’t know it, but their access information such as date, time, and IP addresses will be sent to Google Analytics. Then, the data will be sent to the server, hosting the film, and the stains on the body will be filled with those information. So, when you watch the movie twice, the latter time won’t be same as the first time you watched it.
The stains that are filled with viewers’ data perform a determinant role in the narration. More stains on the body means critical illness. However, as more people come to watch the film, the stains will contain more information and get slightly bigger. More visitors would mean the success of this film, yet the condition of the man would be worse. This symbolizes the interaction of the artist and the viewers (which is too deep for me to fully comprehend)
