<nettime> Suggestion for discussion: Daily Noise – a browser-based net art project


Hi Nettime community,

I’d like to share a recent net art project of mine, called *Daily Noise*:
https://daily-noise.org

The work explores the relationship between real-time information, user
behavior, and the residual traces left by interaction. Daily Noise uses an
ANSA news feed as live material: words from the feed are deconstructed and
displayed randomly across the page. The user does not read news content in
a traditional way; instead, their behavior—refreshing, waiting, long
presses—becomes part of the artwork.

A secondary minimal interface reveals a single word and the cumulative log
of user actions, making visible what is normally invisible: behavioral
residue and interaction patterns. Ordinary gestures transform into
conceptual acts, highlighting the tension between informational overload
and critical observation.

The project positions itself in dialogue with net art histories,
referencing the work of Jodi, Olia Lialina, Heath Bunting, and Mark Napier,
while reflecting on contemporary web experience as a material for critical
art practice.

I am sharing this to invite discussion, feedback, and reflection on how
browser-based interventions can act as conceptual devices in net art today.

Thanks for your attention,  GD
