The Things of the Internet

Delany Boutkan

"Context, the setting and circumstances in which an object exists, determine its value."

HOW (do we evaluate objects)? We increasingly evaluate objects through their representation as images circulating on the Internet, which offers a particular set of criteria and circumstances for viewing and for making value judgements. WHAT A method for selecting and presenting objects as images in a museum. The objects are introduced through video and audio fragments, and on the natural habitat of Internet images: screens. WHY Failure to acknowledge the relevance of the image, especially as it circulates on social media, devalues the culture of a generation within the history of visual culture.
