Hi everyone,
I've just released an online brand new work.
The Middle Finger Response is a curated selection of 300+ spontaneous self
portraits of cloud workers I commisiioned travelling around one of the most
represantive crowdsourcing platform: Amazon Mechanical Turk.
All the workers in the selection have been paid about 0.5$ in order to take
a webcam picture of themselves showing their face, their context and,
ultimately, their middle finger response.
It's just a cynical but sincere attempt to establish a dialogue between the
artist, the public and the crowd dispersed through the new frontiers of
leisure, labour and exploitation in the age of the big cloud.
Check it @ www.crowdworkersoftheworldunite.com

Cheers,
Guido Segni
