‘Capital unemployed’ (2011) by Martin Höfer
The work ‘Capital unemployed’ is a series of excerpts taken from work descriptions of artworks in the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Vilnius. The descriptions, shown on an LED-screen fixed to the outside wall of the museum, belong to artworks which are not publicly accessible because they are kept in the museum’s repository.
Jonah Brucker-Cohen, ‘Alerting Infrastructure!’ (2003)
‘Alerting infrastructure’ is a physical hit counter that translates hits to the website of an organisation into interior damage of the physical building that they inhabit. Each unique visitor “hit” is translated into physical output in the form of activating a large, pneumatic jackhammer on a wall in the exhibition-space.
