Codeworks: Netzkunst an der Grenze von Sprache und Digitalcodes
by <http://www.kunstradio.at/BIOS/floriancramerbio.html>Florian Cramer

Since the founding manifesto of the French 
<http://www2.ec-lille.fr/%7Ebook/oulipo/>Oulipo Group in 1962, in which it 
proposed writing poetry in computer programming language, there have been 
forms of electronic literature that not only employ computers primarily as 
text generators or audiovisual media, but also use programming, command, 
markup, and protocol codes as their medium. Departing from popular forms of 
this literature in the computer hacker culture, network artists like jodi, 
antiorp, and mez have been developing new poetic and artistic languages 
since the mid-nineties, for which the artist and theorist Alan Sondheim has 
coined the name Codework. Codeworks are technically simple e-mails whose 
text, however, calls to mind associations of computer crashes and 
interferences, viruses and spam. Initially, they were sent via network art 
mailing lists as interferences; later entire forums dedicated to the genre, 
individual styles, and private languages by individual and often 
pseudonymous code artists began developing. This program attempts for the 
first time to transpose codeworks from the written source text to radiophony.
