Cognitive Dissonance refers to an emotional state caused by the fact 
that a person has multiple and not necessarily incompatible cognitions – 
perceptions, thoughts, opinions, attitudes, wishes or intentions. 
Everyone wants to leave Facebook but nobody does it. No one wants to 
accept the dominance of Apple in the market, but everyone uses their 
products. These and related questions will be highlighted by Robert 
Sakrowski acting in virtual networks as CuratingYouTube.

Art critic and curator Robert Sakrowski (1966) works with art practices 
related to Web 2.0. He initiated a number of online and offline projects 
including netart-datenbank.org (1999), CuratingYouTube.net (since 2007) 
and gridr.org (since 2012). In 2014 he worked as curator for the 
Transmediale Festival 2015 „capture all“. Recently Sakrowski has curated 
the Newman Festival in Lithuania.
