</p><p><b>Open Internet</b></p><p>2010 showed the full scale beauty of open Internet culture.
Governments and industrial lobbies are trying more than ever to
establish new regulations and tools to control the net. The
Internet must stay open and neutral! Avoid being shut down by
government and make sure your (online-) life or business is not
dependant on a single large company or governmental restrictions.
It is important to keep rethinking net structures to escape from
the mainstream social vortex which is incapable of reflecting on
itself. Internet art and net subcultures play an important role in
questioning and deconstructing everyday web defaultism and global,
digital industries.</p><p>We are very pleased to present an exquisite selection of
internationally-known artists at SPEED SHOW vol.5 ‘Open Internet’
- Paris. A wide range of brand new art works created especially
for 'Open Internet' discuss the current impact of Internet pop
culture, open source, minimal amateur and radical options of the
Open Internet. A combination of excellent Paris-based,
internationally-know artists and restless Open Internet advocates
form the perfect base for a promising opening night at the awesome
Welat cyber cafe Paris.</p><p>Aram Bartholl 2011</p><div><a href="http://fffff.at/speed-show-5/">http://fffff.at/speed-show-5/</a></div><div><a href="http://fffff.at">http://fffff.at</a></div><div><br></div><p><b>All prior Speed Shows documented here <a href="http://fffff.at/speed-show/">fffff.at/speed-show</a></b></p>
<h3>The<b> SPEED SHOW </b>exhibition<b> </b>format:</h3><p>Hit an Internet-cafe, rent all computers they have and run a show
on them for one night. All art works of the participating artists
need to be on-line (not necessarily public) and are shown in a
typical browser with standard plug-ins. Performance and life
pieces may also use pre-installed communication programs (instant
messaging, VOIP, video chat etc). Custom software (except browser
add-ons) or off-line files are not permitted. Any creative
physical modification to Internet cafe itself is not allowed. The
show is public and takes place during normal opening hours of the
Internet cafe/shop. All visitors are welcome to join the opening,
enjoy the art (and to check their email.)</p><p><b>SPEED SHOW</b> manifest by Aram Bartholl 2010<br><br></p>

</p><p><b>Open Internet</b></p><p>2010 a montré l'impact de la culture Internet libre à grande
échelle. Les gouvernements et les lobbies industriels s’évertuent
plus que jamais à mettre en place de nouvelles réglementations et
outils pour contrôler le net. L'Internet doit rester ouvert et
neutre! Assurez-vous que votre vie (en ligne) ou que votre
activité professionnelle ne dépende pas d’une seule grande
entreprise ou de restrictions gouvernementales. Il est important
de toujours remettre en question les structures du net et
d'échapper au conformisme social qui empêche tout recul. L'art sur
internet et les sous cultures du réseau jouent un rôle de vigie,
questionnant au quotidien les failles du web et les industries
numériques transnationales.</p><p>Nous sommes très heureux, pour le SPEED SHOW vol.5 ‘Open
Internet’ - Paris, de présenter une sélection d'artistes
internationaux et d'exposer des pièces récentes, dont certaines
créées spécialement pour "Open Internet ". Les oeuvres interrogent
l'impact de la culture pop du réseau, de l’open source, des
pratiques amateurs et des engagements radicaux pour l'Internet
ouvert. </p><p>Aram Bartholl 2011</p>
