Udi Aloni
Projects: Aloni says Re-U-Man (www.Re-U-Man.com) is "a
structure that helps me send my fragmented "I" to you (plural) and
re-collect your commentary, for me to speak again in a way that might
surprise me. The project begins with the presentation and will
continue on the Internet, as well as at stations/installations located in
museums, galleries, libraries, and schools." Aloni uses sound and image in
his creation to narrate and explain.
Re-U-Man appears to be Aloni's only web-project.

Simon Biggs
Projects: "The Great Wall of China" "Book of Shadows" and "Virtual
Conversation" are accessable at: http://www.easynet.co.uk/simonbiggs/webworks.htm
Genre(s): "book of shadows" is image rich, some appears to be
poetry accompanied by images...The great wall of china, is interesting because it creates
the text as you play with it, but as a result it is rather nonsensical.
The image changes as well, which is interesting, and there are (chinese or
japanise) characters involved in some way as well.
Location: Born in australia, now lives in London UK

Heath Bunting
http://www.irational.org/heath/
An index of Bunting's work, including "Own, Be Owned Or Remain
Invisible" which is a strange sort of statement about domain names...I
think... It is seemingly about Bunting himself, and "signed" James Flint.
Nearly every word is a link to "www.whatever-the-word-is.com". The text is
kinda hard to read because it's all really light.
"PAIN OF EXISTENCE" is also quite interesting...is it hypertext,
or is it a slide show? Includes some really awesome words though, mostly
on billboards, including "Most art says nothing to most people."
"The Pleasure Project"... utilizes combined authorship for some
of the main links, and for others describes art projects...sorta.
Location: All the email in this site goes to "???@cybercafe.org"
cybercafe.org is registered to Ivan Pope of London, UK...There are other
references to UK...

Matthew Fuller
projects: I/O/D 4 - "The Web Stalker" Fuller says in an essay
titled "A Means of Mutation," Previous to the Web Stalker, work by artists
on the web was channelled into merely providing content for web sites.
These sites are bound by the conventions enforced by browser-type
software. They therefore remain the most determining aesthetic of this
work. The majority of web-based art, if it deals with its media context at
all can be understood by four brief typologies: incoherence (user abuse,
ironic dysfunctionality, randomness to mask pointlessness) archaeology
(media archaeology, emulators of old machines and software, and
structuralist materialist approach) retro-tooling (integrity to old
materials in 'new' media, integrity as kitsch derived from punk/jazz/hip
hop, old-style computer graphics, and 'filmic references' - the Futile
Style Of London 12) deconstruction (conservative approach to
analysing-in-practice the development of multimedia and networks,
consistently re-articulating contradiction rather than using it as a
launching pad for new techniques of composition).
Genre: I/O/D is a browser.
Location: London based.
Code: His and the other people on the project.
Masaki Fujihata
Project(s): Light on the Net is a clickable picture of a set of
lights that suposedly go on and off when you click them... in real life as
well as onscreen. (http://light.softopia.pref.gifu.jp/) He has other

Genre(s): he seems to be dealing with the interactions of RL and
the web.
Location: Tokyo
Code: Obviously _something_ weird, but who knows... could be
sofware, most likely it's developed by Fujihata himself.
Ken Goldberg
Project(s): Memento Mori, among others (see homepage), uses an
interface with the real world. (a seismograph in this case) I don't really
know if there is a narative at work, although the prjects are interesting.
Homepage: http://www.ieor.berkeley.edu/~goldberg/art/
Genre(s): interelation between web and RL
Location: Berkley CA
Code: evidence of both Microsoft Word & Netscape, but there must
also be something else at large... (java)
Keneth Goldsmith
Projects: Fidget is a
project co-authored with Clem Paulsen... it is a strange mix of
HYPERpoetry/text and HYPERmedia. Here is a quote from the site about
Goldsmith:
Kenneth Goldsmith is the author of No. 111 2.7.93-10.20.96
(1997, The Figures, http://www.buffalo.edu/epc/authors/goldsmith/111) and
73 Poems, a collaboration with vocalist Joan La Barbara (book 1994 by
Permanent Press, compact disc 1994 by Lovely Music, Ltd.,
http://www.ubu.com/contemp/goldsmith/73/73.html). His visual works have
been exhibited in galleries and museums worldwide. Goldsmith is the editor
of UbuWeb Visual, Concrete + Sound Poetry (http://www.ubu.com), a DJ at
91.1 WFMU in New York City (http://www.wfmu.org/~kennyg), and a music
critic at New York Press.
Genre: see above.
Location: New York City
code: Clem Paulsen wrote the code... it's a java aplet.

Location: born in Mexico City, and now lives/works in San
Francisco (?-maybe LA)
Code: It appears that some javascript is done by skinpop.

lisa hutton
Homepage: http://sgva-serv1.ucsd.edu/~art-slab/ARTSLAB/LisaHutton/LLHpage.html
Projects: Victorian.NET, CYBER*BABES (a fan dance for adults)
Woman Words, ELECTROCATING DADA BOOM, others... Also see: http://www.archimuse.com/mw98/beyondinterface/hutton_fr.html
at Beyond Interface.
Genre: Several of Lisa Hutton's works are primarily image
oriented, with a very linear (next, back, home) linking structure. Words
do accompany the images, and in creative ways, but the images seem to hold
sway. These pieces are usually fairly straight forward, and end in a link
outside the hypertext, usually at a site that illustrates a point
presented in the particular piece.
An exception to both of these statements is "woman's words", a
piece that features words (and again images) that pertain to women in
specific. --Although I couldn't quite figure out Michael Jackson's role in
that perspective. In this case the text was not prose, and more lists.
Location: San Diego California
Code: most likely her own

Olia Lialina
Projects: My boyfriend came back from the warhttp://www.design.ru/olialia/war/
The most startling thing about "My Boyfriend" for me was the way that
everything disappeared in the end. You were left with this stark black
subdivided screen.
Agatha (http://www.c3.hu/collection/agatha/)
is interesting because it calls into question the function of every item
on the screen. Java enables certian words to appear when the mouse is
hovering over the characters, creating a dialogue of sorts. The addresses
of the links are used in narative as well.
TELEPORTACIA (http://art.teleportacia.org)
Is another of Lialina's projects... The net's first true net-art gallery?
Features "IF YOU WANT TO CLEAN YOUR SCREEN" an original piece of art by
Olia Lialina...conceptually stunning. Also see the Banners, just because
they're really freeking cool.
ANNA KARENIN GOES TO PARADISE (www.teleportacia.org/anna)
This is an interesting portrayal (parody) of the search for love on the
internet.
What is possibally a complete list of projects can be found at

Judy Malloy
Projects: Supposedly the "first electronic hypertext", Uncle Roger
(http://www.well.com/user/jmalloy/party.html)
is an interesting poem/prose combination...
The Roar of Destiny Emanated from the Refrigerator
(http://www.well.com/user/jmalloy/aframe.html)
is almost more aptly described as a hypertext poetry. The author has
created a huge labyrinth of connected (textual) images. At first, you see
a frame version of several of the pages, but if curiosity causes you to
click on any text...more appears, I'm not sure about the structure,
honestly.
Also has l0ve 0ne on

Malloy's depiction of an accident she experienced.
