Discuss the idea that a computer is a place. How does the artist Wafaa Bilal use the computer in this way, exhibiting his work in a digital space? Consider the role of the Internet in this concept.

What will be an ideal response?


In addition to being a tool, the computer is a place. Images can be created, stored, and looked at on a computer without being given a traditional material form at all. With the development of the Internet, a computer became a gateway to a new kind of public space, one that was global in scope and potentially accessible to everyone. Wafaa Bilal is an example of an artist who disseminates and exhibits his work online, rather than traditional spaces like galleries or museums. In his work, 3rdi, he used a camera attached to his head to capture his daily like and transmit it to the Internet.
