🚨TODAY! 🚨 @exonemo's The Last Acres of the Internet, part of the exhibition WEBSITES WEBSITES WEBSITES! (WWW!), goes to auction at 12 PM ET ⭑ Closes 24 hours after the first bid ⭑ Starting at $24, on Fellowship →🔗 ⭑ Proceeds directly support @rhizome's work as a memory institution for digital art. The work offers the web's least desirable real estate for sale. While short domain names sell for colossal amounts, like land in Manhattan, exonemo trades in the opposite: the duo registers meaningless domain names of 63 characters, the maximum length permitted, and grows an HTML wilderness generated from random strings on each one. Whoever buys a website owns both the domain and its wilderness, free to build there as they wish. Bidding opens at $24, the sum Dutch colonial director Peter Minuit is said to have paid the Lenape for Manhattan Island in 1626. In contrast to artists raised within today's platform economy, exonemo reflect on what was lost as the web became centralized, asking who holds its territory and what remains for those arriving next.
