Net Art, huh?

So, I guess this can be my list of neat net arts stuffs:

By the way, that one's freaking awesome, though insanely long. Very intriguing how it tells such a deep story with only words and some repetitive music. Well timed, very meditative, I could reflect on this all day. If my eyes didn't hurt from the large print.

This ones is quite interesting. The idea of taking so much information and making a piece like that out of it... I can only try to visualize the coding involved, and I'm assuming database work was needed. It's impressive how many entries are in this thing.

I know this one was shown in class, but I really did like it. AGain, I think it was the text thing. How it tells a story but doesn't outright tell you everything.

I think I've figured out I'd love to do something with text. Or try to tell a story without saying much about a story. I really really really love the idea of having someone read through and figure out what's going on.
