Amazon Noir.
Mixed Media. dimensions variable.
This digital action (media hack and hack activism) was carried out in the global massmedia, within the art world and on a highly sophisticated technical level. Amazon e-commerce websites were vulnerable targets. We eluded the copyright protection with software robots that used the front door of “Search Inside” service. We stole digital complete volumes of books, reassembled them into pdf format and redistributed them for free. The action is documented by various types of offline conceptual installations.
