This is episode 1 of the 14 episode series ‘Programming Curators’ which will premiere as OFFline installation during Click Festival 2014 in Denmark: clickfestival.dk the pl41t3xt pavilion can be found at pl41nt3xt.com The Wrong, 'the first New Digital Art Biennale’ that opened in 2013, is maybe best described as 'the tower of Babel for digital art’. The event displayed a vast collection of digital esthetics, politics, technologies and cultures that was too rich and overwhelming to get a hold off; in fact the Biennale reports to have featured 30 pavilions with over 500 artworks. By appropriating jargon and specific organizational features, the Wrongs attempted to create a bridge into the institutionalized art world. However, when in January 2013 the event closed and its index page was taken offline, what was left was a feeling of 'implosion’; orphaned pavilions ended up as little Islands of treasure but missing any kind of map to guide surfers. 'Programming Curators’ attempts to give an insight into the meta stories of the curators behind the pavilions and the work they curated for the Wrong. The installation is accessible on the special wifi network named accordingly, to emphasize its meta-function. // Rosa Menkman // http://thewrong.org/
