The Dutch artist Constant Dullaart (recent winner of the Prix Net Art, the international award for internet art) works primarily with the Internet as an alternative space of presentation and (mis)representation. His often-political approach is critical of the control that corporate systems have upon our perception of the world, and the way in which we passively adopt their languages. His practice includes websites, performances, installations and manipulated found images, presented both offline and in the public space of the Internet. Constant Dullaart will discuss the value of 'facebook likes' and his 'balconism-manifesto' that starts like this: 'We are all outside on the balcony now. Standing on a platform made out of a tweet into corporate versions of public space.'
