Turbulence Commission: "Tweet4Action.com" by Les Liens Invisibles
http://turbulence.org/works/tweet4action/
[Needs Twitter Account and Smart Phone with the Layar app. Installed]
"Tweet4Action.com" is the ultimate tool for armchair activism.
Discover how to set up the most radical street demonstrations and
take part in them without any annoying risks. Created in the cultural
context of "Twitter Revolutions," this new project from Les Liens
Invisibles injects fervor into your tweety riots by mixing together
the potent combination of Twitter, augmented reality, and data
hallucination. Insurrections have never been so easy: just decide
with a few clicks where you want to place your riot, pick a rebellion
hashtag (#), and spread it all over the web. Your tweets will become
the squatter demonstrators in the augmented reality space of your
campaign!
Are you ready to change the world?
Don’t miss the action: augment your reaction!
"Tweet4Action.com" is a 2011 commission of New Radio and Performing
Arts, Inc. for its Turbulence website. It was made possible with
funding from the National Endowment for the Arts.
BIOGRAPHY
Les Liens Invisibles is an imaginary art-group from Italy. It is
comprised of media artists Clemente Pestelli and Gionatan Quintini.
Their work is an eclectic recombination of pop net culture, reverse
engineering techniques, social media subvertising, and any other kind
of media reappropriation. Since 2007, Les Liens Invisibles have been
infiltrating the global communication networks in order to join and
expand the invisible connections between art and real life. Most of
their artworks and interventions -- which include a virtual suicide
web service, the subvertising of many popular social networking
platforms, and a paradoxical tool to reclaim the truth through the
fake -- reached global media visibility and have been shown
internationally.
