TPW proudly presents the Digital Museum!

The Works of Crash-Stop: Playing with Hydra

Featuring 5 "Rooms" showing works of Crash-Stop, a Glitch-Artist from Ireland. His works are great: Amalgams of various styles and ideas, postmodern, political, but always somewhat ambivalent. Saying more would be saying to much, check it out yourself!

The whole thing is fully in the spirit of OpenCulture. Crash-Stop is using free licenses, and the sites HTML is public domain.

The Digital Museum is an attempt to make good on one of the original promises of the Internet: To create digital spaces open to everyone, where culture and art can thrive unaffiliated by commercial interests and governmental control.

Some of his pieces genuinely look like the broken monitor my blind friend had. That's not a bad thing, just an observation.

Some of his works are created by deliberately (and sometimes targeted) breaking of hardware; this technique is called "circuit bending" :)
